I think the numbers are quite solid for her =)

It would be interesting to know how many of those are the box's set as it is sold for 3X the price of the normal concert.

good pointing but they dont normally do that, can't recall if ever did actually

WOW at those numbers, they are an improvement from the PIA MIA 24th Anniversary + CDL 21-22 which sold 6841 copies first week and even more than TROUBLE TOUR 2020 A ~Saigo no Trouble~" (6562).
I guess it's because the 25th, 30th, 35th etc anniversaries are considered more important than any other year.

also the tour helps with visibility

I also think This year concert was a step up compared to Pia arena and Saigo no Trouble.

I think it is fair to say that BD+DVD sales crossed 10k mark, which I think is really good considering the high price of this item and almost no promo at all - a friend said that they're not selling it at the tour venues, unfortunately..

My package will arrive by the end of this week
can't wait

u got the limited box?

Yes!

please, make an unboxing video haha

so i watched the anniversary show yesterday, it was awesome, you could she was very excited and the crowd went crazy during the whole concert. I loved the rockish segment, even though her japanese audience considerably ignores it - alterna is one of the least streamed songs on (miss) album and from time to time she still performs it :love - I also loved what they did with the interludes, like mixing up some of her ballads to introduce the ballad section (did they do that before?), Lady Dynamite performance for me was dope and a fair decision to be the last song before the encore, it really adds up the energy needed after breaking a sweat.

one thing i didnt quite like were her outfits during some sections, i loved the first one - that its featured on the dvd/bd cover - but the others i dont know, most of the time i think it was lacking something, like her pink outfit, i just dont buy it.. anyway, i'll watch it again and maybe i'll change my opinion..

also, why dont they have bigger screens for this show? somehow i think that it was not easy for those sitting far from the stage to watch her self-expressions or any other details, i always remember how the Ultra Blue concert by Hikki had huge screens...

overwall id give this concert a 8/10

highlights: We are the QUEENS, End roll ~ As if... ~ Dolls, Tell All, Song 4 u, Lady Dynamite

Glad you liked the show, I was in the crowd, there were few screens, one big in the middle and two on the sides I think, but they were sometimes use to show stage effects. The catwalk crosses the audience and it seemed well balanced in the arena.

just a quick update, A COMPLETE ~ALL SINGLES~ was #7 on Oricon Digital Albums last week, with 338 downloads :syesyes
