| + Sakuranbo was her first hit song. At that time her Official site at Avex had the most hits. (Usually Hamasaki Ayumi.) |
| + Ai has bad rhythm, so she always needs to use a metronome. |

| + At the time of "LOVE PUNCH"'s release, Ai estimated to have about 60 songs written. (I want to hear them all!!!) |
| + "LOVE PUNCH." She named her album this as an analogy to "Fruit Punch/Salad". The album has a variation of types of feeling about love. In the album she will show us the different types of love! All mixed together, like salad. (She said it was a coincidence that many of her song titles where fruit/food names. ^^; |
| + She loves "mochi/dango." (Round type rice cakes) She ate them all the time when recording "LOVE PUNCH," because there was a shop near by. |
| + The type of artist Ai wishes to become is: The type with an original, well know, and long lasting existance. |
| + In the song "Ishikawa Osaka Yukou Joyaku." She chose to have the prefecture name "Ishikawa," because that's where her college friends lived. |

| + Ai's cartoon bunny she always draws is named "LOVE-chan" (Funny.. since her name means love too.. ^___^) |
 |
| + Ai named the song "Sakuranbo" because she said when she saw a couple walking together, side by side, their heads were together like cherries... awww! |
