Would it be on the same day? I think the TA preorder viewing would be the week prior. Traditionally it seems like a-nation is held on the last weekend of August (in this case, would be 29th/30th) but the TA thing along with the actual release is the week before that.

August 23rd is the scheduled date for the preorder viewing and I figure they already had figured the a-nation date in with that, though we still don't know any details and probably won't for a while regarding a-nation.

You’re right! So I wonder where that conversation came from. Well, that’s good news at least.

The only news so far we have about the date is that it's going to be held at the end of August (8月末).
Imo both last weekends are possible as they usually use those, so it could overlap with the TA plans.
Usually a-nation is also more than on one weekend, so who knows how they gonna do it this time and if Ayu even wants.

a Zoom Nation 2020 - everyone will be in pj at home and perform their hit songs.

ayu should do the same for her tour - Ayumi hamasaki Online Tour 2020 ~Zoom In~

8/29 is the date for a-nation online 2020!

First batch of artists announced on 8/11!

Great!

I’m sad I won’t be home to watch, but I hope it will be available online afterwards.

Waiting paitently for a-nation 07 to be uploaded tomorrow! Cannot wait to watch fated. Its such a magical performance in the summer rain and isn't lipsynced like in Countdown Live.

if you mean CDL 0708, then I think it's pitch-corrected; not lip-synced.

I haven't seen the TV version in forever. Does that one seem more live? CUz the DVD does not.

yes, the TV version is (painfully) raw. her vocals are still strong, but she missed a lot of notes I think because she was struggling with total deafness on her left ear.

I think all of CDL07-08 she was dealing with emotional overload too since one of her best friends had died but she wasn't told till a while after.

my goodness I didn't know that she wasn't told until later :( must have been a heavy show to perform.

Yeah you could definetly tell she was going through it during that live. I gotta hunt down the TV version!

The entry she talked about it during... it's so sad. The staff/her family did not want to tell her until she came back to Japan from LA.

Wow I forgot how heart wrenching that was. Especially the bit where she went to her house to check if it was true. So sad!

Guh I just cried all over again

Fated delievered. :) Happy to have that performance in 1080p for now. Getting really nostalgic watching these a-nation performances from that era of J-Pop. Its sad that its over but also lovely that it was experienced.

I love the TO BE performance from '09 — the one time shouting out the song added to the song in a positive manner.

oh my goodness. thank you for sharing this. it's such an unfiltered reflection of the emotional toll she had during the 2007–2008 transition :weep

anyways, I'm very happy to see a-nation '07–'10. there are so many performances I love here, especially the opening songs of '08–'10. Mirrorcle World looks so goddamn dignified here, with just enough hand-flailing and without the 60-minute outro of "wow wow yeah yeah yeah"s of the more recent performances :laugh
