Maaya has 3 nieces (they’re sisters) and every year her Christmas gift to them is a Christmas cake. This year she made the reservation for it in October as part of her goal to wrap up her yearly tasks as soon as possible. #VitaminM
incredibly jealous of the 26 year old new employee at flying dog for a number of reasons, the biggest of which is that she got to be a guest on Maaya’s #VitaminM radio show and chat with her and did an excellent job for being given 3 minutes notice
And finally, a confession from Maaya. While rushing to the recording for this episode of #VitaminM, she accidentally stepped on her skirt, causing its only button to pop off. Without the button, her skirt will come undone and fall off. She spent the whole 30 minute recording in this perilous state.
Another letter from oomf, Nagima-san (@Nag_mm)! When she was sad about not being able to go to a concert, her 7y.o. daughter asked "Did you want to see her that much? Does Maaya-chan really exist in this world?" Maaya invites her to a future concert so her daughters can see for themselves.

Next, a letter from @tetsu1014.bsky.social! He writes about visiting the Joan Miró exhibition at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum. Maaya recorded the audio guide for the exhibition and comments on how she enjoyed the different phases of Miró's art through the years.

This time, a wife wants to express gratitude to her husband for supporting her education and looking after the kids when she goes to class on his days off. Maaya compliments the husband then comments how these letters have made her think about the ways she's thankful to her spouse too.
#VitaminM
On a lighter note, another listener writes in to express gratitude to his wife for allowing him to take some time off from his fatherly duties to go attend Maaya's concert. Maaya responds that she's been seriously thinking about how to put on a concert that young children can attend too.
#VitaminM
This month's theme is about gratitude and a listener writes in with a touching letter expressing gratitude to his wife, who is currently in a vegetative state and has been for 12 years. His letter moves Maaya to tears, who recalls caring for her brother for 2 months after a car accident.
#VitaminM
Starting with the story of how a listener helped a foreigner find the subway station. The 47 y.o. woman hadn't studied English in a very long time but she was able to remember and use the phrase "Follow me" thanks to Maaya. (Follow Me is a track on the album Follow Me Up).

In honor of queen Maaya Sakamoto's birthday (and because it was interesting) I'll be translating parts of last week's #VitaminM in this thread.

学級委員長タイプ発言に納得いかない坂本さんww確かにデビュー時から応援してる私としても学級委員長タイプだと感じたことはこれっぽっちも無いわ笑 #vitaminM
まーやちゃん実は意外と恐竜好きだそうな…昔ジュラシックパークの吹替やった時はどうだったんですかね #vitaminM
