Following his graduation from Waseda University's literature department, he embarked on a career journey that initially led him to an advertising agency. It was during this time that he crossed paths with scriptwriter Ishido Shuro, with whom he had formed a bond during his university days. Encouraged by Ishido, Ai started learning the basics of scriptwriting, as he served as assistant director for "Ultraman A."
