Takahashi appeared in a waitress uniform, which was the costume for her role, and expressed her happiness, "I am really happy to be able to appear on this loved musical." When asked about the most impressive wedding she has ever attended, she answered, "My friend's wedding from my hometown (Fukui) was quite magnificent. They changed their rings with a singer singing live, and the spotlights played on the couple...it was like a stage performance!"

At the conference, lead actor Inoue Yoshio, Ayabuki Mao, Yoshino Keigo, and the director, Yamada Kazuya also made appearances. About her co-stars, Takahashi said, "I've seen them all! I'm happy to be able to appear on the same stage with them. I'm too happy to be here that I might go crazy." She continued, "Since I will be living a rare life in the musical, I would like to add emotions so that the audience will be able to feel sympathy." The lead actor Inoue, who will be playing as "Robbie", also said about Takahashi, "Ai-chan's cuteness�definitely�suits the role. I am worried about our age difference... I want to follow Ai-chan's youthfulness."
