Does she ever take a break?? Can't believe she's announcing the next tour already... She's unstoppable lol

I wonder if that means we'll have a new album announcement soon...

Gustavopc 6th December 2015 01:19 PM

omg so many amazing news these days hahahaha The concert seems to be amazing, thanks for the translation Karen!

If she's pulling off a retro album after WoL 2016 will already be a great year for me hahahaha Can't wait to get more details on both the album and the tour!

kaled kalil 6th December 2015 01:20 PM

New album only after Winter of Love, I would say.

Girl is going EVERYWHERE in Japan! That's awesome! The Tour will be longer than Second Session and Bon Voyage, the longest she ever had. And since she'll probably perform more than one time at some places, I would say the tour will have around 50 dates! Get that coin.

Am I the only one who likes Hall concerts more than Arena? Her stages for Hall are so much detailed. The Dejavu Tour and Bon Voyage Tour had stages that were so full of things going on.

KarenPang 6th December 2015 01:22 PM

You're welcome everybody & I think what the Chinese fan wrote is true . A new studio album should be out next year , if not they will not announce a new hall tour in 2016

Her new hall tour probably will be really long as she will visit 47 prefectures in Japan oO . Probably the new album will be ready in the 1st 1/4 of 2016

I just hope Kuu will not pull an Ayu and put the new tracks in both SUMMER of LOVE & WINTER of LOVE in her next studio album x_x

And Kaled , you want to update the 1st post of the thread with updated information on WINTER of LOVE & the new hall tour ?

Gubsi 6th December 2015 01:35 PM

^well after Ayu's LOVE again mini's idk...
especially when she called SUMMER of LOVE a Single and the sales were singles like ! lol
and tbh for me they are singles (but more like special singles with more content... (cause 15th bla bla)
plus she wouldn't have much videos for her next album, so i think at least EX TAPE + On and On will be on her next album...
so i don't understand the problem, cause no one would say something if they were just normal singles!

Gustavopc 6th December 2015 01:35 PM

Forgot to add - Happy 15th anniversary, queen! <3

I don't think there'll be tracks from SoL or WoL on the next album... If songs like Hashire! or Inside/Outside Fishbowl didn't make it, it would be out of Kuu's patern to do so :shrug Maybe we'll get a digital single after WoL just to warm things up? Either way, if she does include these tracks that's okay cause probably we'll get 10~12 new songs and that's already amazing.

Corvina 6th December 2015 01:36 PM

Now, also from me, happy 15th Anniversary, Kuu!
Hoping your years to come will be exciting, healthy and successfull!

Made a little drawing the last night (just a photo, don't have a scanner right now):

Actually, I would like that. Doesn't have to be all, but I would love if she put HURRICANE in the next album... I don't think it's gonna happen though.

KarenPang 6th December 2015 02:06 PM

Sponichi & Sanspo are really fast in updating reports on today's concert

http://www.sanspo.com/geino/news/201...560038-n1.html
http://www.sponichi.co.jp/entertainm...011638770.html

And Kuu looked lovely for both pictures *___*

Also worst case scenario if the new material from both SUMMER of LOVE & WINTER of LOVE are included in her next album , I'm ok with it since I don't plan to buy either compilation , LOL

I will just buy the new tracks separately online

kaled kalil 6th December 2015 02:32 PM

Two more pics:

Looking gorgeous!

Corvina 6th December 2015 02:33 PM

Articles mention, tour next year will start in March.
For ON AND ON she was lifted 10 meters into the air with the chandelier.
After WON'T BE LONG today, there was a 20 minutes break cause of video malfunctioning.
Production and variety for the show were fascinating.

They are the same pictures you posted. haha

Lee^ChaN 6th December 2015 04:04 PM

Ah... got back from Saitama last day live.

As it had been mentioned by a Chinese fan (translated by Corvina & Karen)

This is my review:

Spoiler:


Opening Movie
>> Documentary of The Artist (just like the usual making of). Mentioned
From Entertainer, Vocalist and Dancer, What makes "Koda Kumi" as an Artist.

The stage is like Las Vegas-ish & Moulin Rouge-ish in my opinion.

Entertainer segment:
1) No Me Without You
>> When the curtains raised, she stood in the middle of the stage, wore a white lacey long-sleeved dress and huge white hat.
Start with beautiful sound of piano, but typical Kuu's ballad.
It sounded better live, than the preview.

2) Show Me Your Holla
>> Just like Karen has translated before. It's retro style and had different arrangement than original.
The dancer ripped off the sleeves at the beginning, and the skirt portion after, revealing white lacey 2 piece of sexy lingerie.. (momma, those abs.. *drool*)
About the end of the song, she wore green short bathrobe.

3) Bambi
>> This song actually fit after Show Me Your Holla, since it also got new arrangement.
She wore the black stripped costume (in the new picture)

4) WON'T BE LONG
>> She rode the cart, circling the arena.
Interactive song and Japanese fans love it.

** There was a trouble after this song and the show was suspended for 20 minutes. It started again from 2nd song**

5) LOADED
>> This song was fun as usual!
She should keep singing this song every tour :luv2
I know not many of you like this song, but if you attend the live, you'll definitely change your mind!

6) CUPCAKE
>> This song sounds like Touch Down but more dance-ish, imo.
Club house song. It's better than Touch Down for me.

7) Touch Down
>> Remix version, an okay from me.
She danced using the stick.

8) Crazy 4 U
>> A lot of dancing. Great!

Interlude movie
>> Mentioned that as a vocalist, it has to be ballad to show the real voice.

Vocalist segment:
9) You
>> She wore white dress with long wide skirt, raised few meters. (picture: white-blueish long dress)
The LED hanging on the ceiling above her, projected various images on her dress, like Andromeda, stars, etc. It was really pretty!

10) Moon Crying
>> The long wide skirt was taken off and she wore like wedding dress.
It's like the Taiwan live version one. Great vocal.

11) Brave
>> Just like her previous performance, walking to right and left.

12) Ai no Uta
>> Uhm.. no need to comment, i guess :rolleyes

13) Uta wa Waga Inochi
>> Not really fan of this song, but THIS is the best vocal from the ballad segment IMO. Her deep & strong vocal :luv2

Band introduction
>> She got new guitarist, named FIRE... :shakehead
Yukino and David King were the backing vocal :luv2
During the band introduction, she disappeared.

14) You're so beautiful
>> She appeared wearing the red dress.

15) On and On
>> This new song reminds me of 90's~00's slow pop.
It's a laid back song. Chorus is repetitive: On and on, on and on, on and oonnnnnnnnnn.... but addictive. I like it better than No Me Without You for sure.
She sat on the chandelier and raised few meters. There was an additional huge red cloth, just like in the picture.

16) Walk Of My Life
>> Great vocal!

Interlude Movie
>> dance training documentary

Dancer segment:
17) Atomic Energy~XXX~Escalate~Lay Down~Crank the Bass
>> She wore a sexy purple-glitter-ish gymnastic like suit.
During Atomic Energy, the dance looked like Michael/Janet Jackson-ish. XXX was very short. Escal
>> She barely sang during this medley; 90% Hardcore dance!!

18) HOTEL
>> She sang almost full song and did the dance. It was great.

Dancers' part
>> Maiko was there!!
She got few new dancers, whom I barely knew.
Fujinko, Achi, Haruka... I don't remember
>> Kuu's dance part was on the mini stage.

19) TABOO
>> How much I love this song and she sang it almost in full :yes
She rode the electric skateboard. It was cool!
She wore black bra? top and black pants.

20) Hurricane
>> THIS!! Awesome! Keep singing this song, prease!

21) UNIVERSE
>> No comment on this. Fun as usual :D

22) Megumi no Hito
>> same as above

23) Poppin' Love Cocktail
>> Towel dance

Encore (fan sang Walk)

24) Take Back~Birthday Eve~With Your Smile~Bring It On~In The Air~Someday~Lady Go!

25) Comes Up!
>> She cried while singing this song.

Long MC, announced of new Winter Ballad and her first 47 prefectures live tour starting next Spring. I guess it will be a Hall Tour.

26) Walk
>> Like usual..


Her vocal was really great this time, much more better comparing to her A-Nation premium live in Summer.
However, for the whole performance, if you have seen WoML, you may be disappointed with this tour.
After all of those extravaganza things she did on WoML (flying car, piano, drum, guitar, crazy tissue dance during DitR, etc) this tour lacked the usual "WOW-ness". But overall, it was a great concert.

melissalove 6th December 2015 04:44 PM

Actually all those different things Kumi did for woml tour made it a bit random and less personal. So this new tour sounds much better to me.

OyTony 6th December 2015 06:44 PM

Yay a new tour. I have a question for the global fan club members. Can you buy tickets with the global fan club account? If you can it it possible to pay with credit card? I want to join the fan club and try to get some tickets for next years tour. =D
