So, going today again!!

@Tokyoxjapanxfan Yep, I agree. That was the weak point of the concert - there was no cohesive theme and the begining was kind of wtf.

The setlist however was great! I was hoping for an A-Museum length setlist though, but still it was good. I'm sure it will be changing with each date of the tour. Like Trauma and Independent/flower garden etc are interchangeable. Same with You for basically any song. Who I could see getting switched back and forth with No More Words. And My All with Replace. The M/No Way to Say section can easily become Dearest/Walking Proud etc etc.

I was so excited when Ever Free came on, but then it just turned out to be BGM used for a tissue dance. :(

Also, Poker Face and Fly High were done in medley - not the full songs.

Her voice sounded EXCELLENT! One of the best times I've heard her live I think. The costumes didn't stand out to me too much - they were good but not amazing. No costumes made me go wtf though, so that was a major positive.

The highlight of the show is Jewel/Heaven/Sakura. The floating pool was finally a nice new original stage idea for her! It was very beautiful! Sakura was performed the same way as Together When at the last CDL, only in a different color dress and a Sakura tree on the screen in the background. Also, she cried during Sakura.

Oh, and before You and Me, there was a DJ section. Elin and I were both shocked when it wasn't Ayu songs though! They were playing stuff like Psy and Nikki Minaj to get the place pumped up!

Those are my scatter brained thoughts at the moment!

Loved your review Elin! I laughed so much! :)

As much as I like this song, I heard it live five times already!
And now I'll have to listen to it 4 more times during this tour.
That's insane (LOL) Why isn't it Sunrise~Love is all~??!

kpause 14th April 2013 06:00 AM

I love the setlist very very much!
A bunch of my favourites: No way to say, HEAVEN, SURREAL....
I hope an asia tour will be launched! Please do it again!

Thanks for the info, everyone! Great setlist <3 I wonder if I can make it to the Fukuoka concert.

whitehexe 14th April 2013 06:34 AM

Wondering... is anyone going to the 6/8 show in Shizuoka by chance? Or even the 6/9?

I really want to go, (though I don't even know if I can get tickets still?), but I'm only in Japan from 5/28 until 6/10 and spending whole time in Tokyo, so this is the closest one... but I'm really to nervous and scared to go all the way from Tokyo by myself and stay in a hotel alone (my friend does not want to come with me...)

I know some Japanese but it is still kinda weak... which makes this all a LOT more nerving...

Really even just someone who can help me find a hotel near the arena and what not would even be appreciated... Been wanting to see her live for almost 9 years and I'm so close I don't want to miss this chance >.< can anyone help an Ayumi fan out?

Thanks to anyone even reading this... >.<

brener 14th April 2013 07:44 AM

the only thing that i liked about this first setlist is A Song for xx/Memorial address and JEWEL/HEAVEN, but i know a lot of stuff will change and we might get something pretty unexpected on the dvd/br next year =)

Deep snow 14th April 2013 08:48 AM

I cannat wait for costume photos and updated setlist *_*

Have fun for everyone who is going! :)

miyuki_ta 14th April 2013 09:13 AM

I think set list is nice. Jewel and Heaven were really great, the way she sang in a floating pool was romantic and fantasy. When they zoomed up her on the big screen, in one moment I thought she's a mermaid :)
I was surprised when they turned Gangnam style in DJ section, I actually prefer Ayu's song more than others artist popular songs.

Encore with Who and My All made me cry like a baby, oh my ~

I will go to see more 2 times in Yokohama and Yoyogi, I hope the setlist will be changed again, can't wait to see that ^^

By the way, the concept is really quite lost, hmn but maybe I didn't feel it clearly, I will try next time.

YUKARI 14th April 2013 11:14 AM

She sang SEASONS!! I just melted!

^ nope, she didn't sing ever free :weep

SURREAL__RAINBOW 14th April 2013 11:21 AM

Ohh fail :( I just sent her a message through TA, I hope that she will sing it at some point during the tour, maybe at the final or something :(

I have a feeling that she will sing kanariya at the encore at some point though, same as no more words! :yes

YUKARI 14th April 2013 11:30 AM

^ yeah, I think no more words will be performed once.

YUKARI 14th April 2013 11:40 AM

Today in the beginning of the show during ASFxx a capella she didn't sing "hitori kiri ikite yuku..". Yesterday she quite struggled while singing it so I'm glad she erased this part.

Also, JEWEL & HEAVEN performance in the pool was better today. Very beautiful!!! And I liked SAKURA song more just because of the performance. Btw I took a sneak peak haha! It was just too beautiful and I thought it'd be nice to share it with you ^^



Also, during HONEY she wore glasses (the same were in Tell all book) and blue jacket. Guys behind me were just like "yabai! yabai! yabai! yabai!" Ahaha. yeah, she looked cute. She had no jacket during Fly high, just like white shirt, pink necktie, blue-pink cross robe. Btw, fly high is too short. Only one chorus. All the arena was dancing during the chorus and then the song stops.. Oh well :)

What else... During MC we were learning Trauma again.

Today the concert was better. I was over-excited during Boys & girls. I couldn't stop shouting "ayu! ayu!", the whole arena was excited, so they started Who... 10 seconds later I think. I hope she'll add more songs to the encore.

Mari-chan 14th April 2013 11:41 AM

I really wished, she sings Ivy.
But.. Jewel, Heaven and Sakura... thats great. Ah.. what a pity, I can not see her live.<
The stage for sakura looks beautiful!

SURREAL__RAINBOW 14th April 2013 11:47 AM

OMG SAKURA looks amazing!!! :love

The lyrics fit the atmosphere so well, and the song's name too of course.

Thank you so much for that!!

terra 14th April 2013 11:58 AM

Whooaa SAKURA looks amazing! :heart
So the stage LCDs are AT10's but the background decoration is somewhat AT07 Nice :yes!
I love the AT10 multi screens XD

Hope someone can get us the costume pics

That's disappointing. I expected the setlist to change more than that.
