This a-nation is good. She sounds better, a lot better, but not great. I just don't like her new vocal style for her old songs. |
^ LOL.. that would be amazing.
|
thanks for the youtube links ^^
|
I can't with BRILLANTE...
|
I just looked at some of the YouTube links and man you barely hear Ayus voice.
But I can tell you at the real concert you heard mostly her and not the background singers as much. HANABI on youtube was quite washed out, but for real it was really powerful and Ayus voice was so strong (it did NOT help my head ache) that she turned heads and people keept saying "wooow, amazing" after her longer notes. |

I wouldn't say "Being a drag queen has nothing to do with being gay" but more like "Being a drag queen is not all about being gay"
You can't seriously say it has NOTHING to do with being gay. Give me a break. Lol. And people get so riled up about stupid comments that were not meant to be rude. Sniffing out criticism where it was not meant. Let's just say this era of Ayu's has more in common with 'gay' than past eras... I am not a fan of stereotypes, but there is a difference between stereotyping (seeing EVERYONE in that group as the SAME/HAVING the SAME QUALITIES) and finding common behaviors/interests/similarities with the majority of people who belong to said group. For example: Not all drag queens are gay, but the majority are. Therefore, gay people are more likely to be interested in/participate in drag than heterosexual people (specifically speaking, men). There is no denying that. |
She does sound better in the HD version. Overall this was a fun a-nation. My only complaints are Timmy and his creepy as hell facial expressions in BRILLANTE and ayu going way over the top with HANABI near the end and sounding gross. Would have been so much better without that. And yeah her voice was off so often, but oh well. I really liked the BRILLANTE/evolution mashup, HANABI ep 2 and theme of a-nation 03. Her outfits and hair were a huge step up from previous years too.

the arrangement for hanabi and hanabi epsiode 2 are really great it is like a 2012 version of these two.but again for some parts cant really hear what shes singing :o her outfit,i really like it all,she looks gorgeous,cute and the hair :luv2 and sorry for Timmy, epic fail with that corset and ugly tutu with those boots,WTH he better offs with his another own concert,so out of place :grumpy:grumpy are we gonna get another TV recording of this after this? from WOWOW TV? hope they will edit the sound system |
We will get WOWOW after this. Live audio mixing is usually pretty bad (see Ayu's CDLs every year) so it should be better in the WOWOW version.
However, keep in mind that WOWOW usually cuts out like half of her setlist. |
I watched the Youtube and then watched the HD and clearly..im not sure if it's because I adjusted to her vocals or that the HD was indeed better. I love the softer and more controlled verses whereas, sometimes when she reaches the more powerful parts, she tends to just shout the note so it could be jarring...But missElin_ said in live, she sounds amazing so I am proud of that.
BRILLANTE as well..the chorus' is so hard. and Timmy's opening gave me goosebumps in a good sense. Ayu looks fantastic here. her hair and that dress...really reminded me of the red Mirrorcle World wan 4 years ago. theme of a-ntion 03 is BEAUTIFULLLLLLLLL. Her voice is so raw but really strong. She isn't forcing it (partially because of the song's nature). It's just awesome. and She's so cute..and with the hair tied like that too. That costume (kimono/yukata?) sounds so gd. |
i just think that the opening is lacking wow factor,,,
the previous anation opening was so great... |
Quote:
And what others said about mixing is definitely right. Many times, when the audio mixing isn't done well(and it's REALLY hard to do it well in a live enviroment), the vocals of the vocalist and one of the background vocalists clash, creating the feeling that one or both are being off. Ayumi is clashing with Princess a lot this time around, especially in BRILLANTE. That will probably be fixed at WOWOW and for the DVD. |
"The chorus of brilliante is quite difficult though ! Overall it's better than in Power of Music"
"I agree with Tal that HANABI was perhaps even better than 2005 one. " Did I watch some different version? This years vocal wasn't that bad but still not clear (theme of a-nation was the best vocally) but to say that it was better than POM or AN2005 makes me think my file was corrupted :V Cannot agree :( |
^ you might of been.
Although there were some bad parts, overall I enjoyed it better. And unless you went to the live concert for PoM (I dont know if you did or not) you were listen to auto-corrected stuff. |
LOL at Timmy and his awful appearance!
|

I don't like BRILLANTE, Timmy sounds better and stronger than her, her voice sounds weak in some parts, but i must confess i love the HANABI'S part
|
This a-nation was really pleasant. The opening with BRILLANTE is stunning. Timmy control his voice very well. The storyline is nice too : Timmy is a malicious man (I think it's why he doesn't look pretty as the most bad man/girl in a story) who confine the beautiful princess Ayu. The dancers are his servants. I prefer that performance to PoM's one because the Gregorian song is singing in live. It's not the mp3 as at PoM tour.
I like the transition between BRILLANTE & evolution. Even if she sang some wrong notes, Hanabi it's nice. I like the new arrangement with the piano part. I don't like the backup singers singing at the beginning of Hanabi ep II. Ayu sang it very well. theme of a-nation'03 is my favourite performance of this a-nation. Ayu was perfect but I think the backup singers was too present in this song & in You & Me. |
Did anyone get the file from jpopsuki!
holy mother! it's almost 6 hours long... ill have to bring it up to watch it... lol |
Just finished, I have to say that I really miss Peco voice, but I really like her new chorus as well the other male chorus not Timmy. What's his name? Is it Miji or something.
BTW, the sound records not good at all, can't wait for the DVD version. |

That is one of the bad things about being the opening act... people are still getting to their seats/buying goods/etc.
And Miccie is her other male vocalist! He's also Ayu's cousin. |
Is it not possible to watch the opening act and go outside again to return later? I wouldn't want to sit in the sun there either so I kind of understand people who don't watch the acts they are not interested in.
|
i cant wait till next year, hope I get to go.
Plus, the first scene looked like the stands where empty, but when they were doing the in the air sweep, they looked pretty full. It might of just been one section of the stands |
People usually come and go as they please (around the middle is kinda bad since if people aren't interested, they leave for a bathroom break), but the opening acts have it worse since not everyone may arrive to see them due to a-nation being an incredibly long set of concerts.
|
finally started to watch ayumi's a-nation.
Love it so far. Hanabi is just... amazing... If her voice, the sound, her over acting. :love all of it The ending of that song... OMG, amazing |
There's no unofficial photos on YAJ as yet. I am deeply saddened by this. I wonder if any actually exist... :shakehead
|
Quote:
and just notice that the Ayu part only had been cut off a bit at the ending part,when shes running to other side of the stage and then no fireworks on the screen but we got it in the full version. LOLed when they played Nicki Minaj's songs right before Ayu's performance haha anyone that love the outro of Hanabi episode 2? wonder if Ayu recheck or discuss again with Timmy for the english part. imagining if Ayu will do it in english version would be beautiful. |
Quote:
|
^ I liked the new english parts that they added to the song as well!...
the song was pretty amazing... Snuff:: wish I could of been there. |
maybe that was kind of rehearsal =) to know what people think about it
|
Ayu, the outfits. AYU WHY? That kimono with the giant flower growing from her back is ridiculous at best.
Otherwise, I'm both surprised and pleased that she performed BRILLANTE. Good choice! |
Quote:
|
lol i keep watching Brillante xD
I think the performance would have looked much better if they did the intro with dancers as they did on PoM letting Timmy out wearing a cape and singing in dimmed light on the simmilar spot where Ayu showed up with the "wow yeah"'s he could take off the hood and continue while slowlly kneeling down on one knee when Ayu is showing up in a redish light bechind him slowly getting brighter as she goes up with the stage a couple of feet. And when it's time for her to sing the light go BAM and lit up in full then go just slightly dim when she starts singing. Also she has such a great outfit with such an amazing flowing fabric, i don't think they used it enough, WhERE THE HELL WAS ADDITIONAL WIND ???!!! :thud |
ok, seriously that BRILLANTE. Timmy looks like a ridicilous sorceress from 80s 16bit video game. It eats credibility from the performance, it also distracts ; he gets too much attention. Ayu's vocals are not that good, but meh. At least she looks stunning and sooo pretty!
|
^ LOL... I knew I saw that outfit somewhere before!!
|
anyone saw Ayu and KOH cute dance during You & Me? haha i love that
anyway when we will WOWOW air this? they must had a hard time to cut which performance >.< |

there's no WOWOW version for 8/26??
|
It combines 8/26 and 8/25 according to the dates on the bottom and the artist lineup.
|
ayumi oonly performed once right?
I wonder what they are going to include in her part? |
Does a setlist for the 6 hour version exist? There are quite a few songs from different artists that I really enjoyed - unfortunately only the artist name was written when they start in the beginning and not the name of the songs. :(

coolness!
thanks! this is my first entire a-nation and so far, I like it! |
^I'm so happy that an almost full version exists. The years before were only really enjoyable for Ayu fans because hers was the complete setlist on the DVD/TV versions. All the other, "less known" acts weren't shown at all or just one song. I hope it will be like this from now on. That would be really awesome for fans of other acts.
|
I just wonder what they'll cut for the DVD...
|
this time,every song is important it is like incomplete without each other =_=
|
Quote:
I think they're likely to cut some of these 3 songs: 03. HANABI 04. HANABI~episode II~ 06. theme of a-nation'03 |
I seem them cutting some from songs, but maybe not the entire song?
I dont know how they would do it... How long are the concerts usually? |
Hmmm I see them cutting evolution, HANABI~episode II~, and theme of a-nation'03. BRILLANTE was kinda a weird choice for an opening...if it was in the middle I think it'd be edited out, but they don't usually edit the opening song right?
|
The most likely songs to get cut are probably a lot of the summer medley, either HANABI/HANABI ~episode II~, and theme of a-nation '03.
Why? Because the summer medleys always get chopped up with really bad fade outs and the songs people want to hear (monochrome, etc.) always end up being scrapped for whatever reason. |
I kinda see them cutting the medley, but thats when ayumi does her little car thing...
I guess they could cut it in a way and still keep that in? |
Quote:
|
interesting...
honestly I never really have payed attention to anation... I think this one (2012) Is the first one I sat down and watched... ill have to watch the others... (I think i also watched 2010, but cant be too sure one that) |
Watched the performance a couple of days ago. I liked the setlist (it's strange to me how BRILLANTE was there but whatever, ayu), but that was very unfortunate-looking hair IMO. And I think she could've pulled some of the songs better (BRILLANTE, evolution, HANABI ~episode II~ - been waiting for her to sing the latter song forever), but I believe she did her best.

^ I also wouldnt want them to cut the hanabi songs..
I also love theme of a-nation... but I wouldnt be heart broken if they did cut it... :*( |
anyone knows where is this from? from TA or any magazine? shes so cute watching TRF and Big Bang performance! ^^
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=1&theater |
^It's from TA! :)
|
^
oh thank you! :) |
So tomorrow WOWOW'll broadcast the show BUT they'll show us only one song by Ayu - "July 1st" - because they plan to focus mainly on 25.08 show (one song by Big Bang as well)...I'm super excited that they'll at least show full set of Sandaime J Soul Brothers :-)))
Proof: http://www.wowow.co.jp/pg_info/detai...index.php?m=01 |
I wonder if it's because they plan on selling the 8/26 show on DVD?
Interesting. |
Who's that guy in black shirt?? :P
|
Quote:
And July 1st!!! But, yeah, maybe it's because FujiTV NEXT has "prime" rights to the 8/26 show, but keep in mind there were artists in 8/25 that were NOT in 8/26 (and Ayu was only on 8/26, not the other dates)... |
