I think it is quite heavy to hold, I may have more arm muscle after this tour hahaha

By the way, I like the design which relates to the theme of the tour and light function that can change to 3 styles (red, light green, both)

I don't like any lightstick which is simple and just Geometric shapes.

^I liked the MV/song but the song itself doesn’t sound very Kuuish to me. It sounds more like 90s jpop that Namie Amuro was famous for in her debut era. I also think that TK should upload this song on Spotify instead of having it exclusively on an Asian website. That’s such a weird move to make imo because on Spotify the song would get more plays in general.

iirc the song has a tie-in for a Chinese game and it's focused on mainland China, so I guess that until the song makes it way into an album or something we won't have it here... Don't know why avex just doesn't upload it everywhere, cause even if I didn't like the song it sure is a great music video and should be on YT already!

It's a TK song (produced, composed, written), Kuu is only providing the vocals. The PV has around 7 million views on bilibili right now. I don't think it would do better on youtube.
Rumour has it, Kuu has another tie-in in China now, cause Trust Last resulted in a small Kuu hype there.

We'll eventually get the song, depending on the contract.
Most probably after the tie-in ends.

Oh god. Another flat boring song from TK.

Koda Kumi saves this song before it throws to the rubbish bin.

BLACK WINGS PV

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hLkcCeli_Y

Had actually just finished watching it when my email popped up telling me you had posted the link here. Lol
I absolutely LOVE the full version of the song and its MV. :bluv :D

Not trying to be negative, but "BLACK WINGS" should've stayed an interlude.

On that matter, I haven't really been a fan of much of what she's released since heart. I have no idea what her next album will look like, but I'm tired of this dual personality thing she's been pushing since W FACE.

AI made a surprise guest appearance in yesterday's KODA KUMI LIVE TOUR 2023 ~angeL&monsteR~ tour final

Both AI & Kuu sung GOOD TIME together onstage during the encore segment

For yesterday's duo concerts

monsteR - 27 songs , including Trigger

angeL - 22 songs including Ai no Uta

TBS will remove the video by 6th Aug

Preordered the mu-mo bluray set of the tour this morning. Really love these clips. Hope the full footage of AI as the special guest will be included on the bluray. :love :love :luv2 :luv2

Also, is it possible to get the BLACK WINGS single cover larger without the text? It'd make an awesome phone/laptop wallpaper. :D

I personally disagree. I didn’t like it as an interlude much but I like it as a full song so much more for some reason. :D

You’re not alone with your feelings on this. I've had mixed feelings about this dual personality concept for few years now. It was cool when she did it once with W FACE but now it's just boring and repetitive (However, I absolutely LOVE Trigger, it’s my fav from WINGS tho). I think that it's time for her to ditch this concept and do something new like she used to do with every album. Heart was a great album because it had a new concept altogether and I hoped she'd continue with changing concepts with future projects too but she just jumped back to dual personality train. I really hope that this EP/tour is the end of this concept tho and she'll do something new and exciting with her next album.

I'm not going to lie when heart was released last year , I do thought that Kuu would release another duality ish album after heart

heart was & is still great but it barely stayed on Oricon less than 2 months which made it her weakest staying studio album to date which's a real shame as heart deserves so much more

Kuu already did the duality concept 3x for her studio and mini albums & I hope it wouldn't happen again for the 4th time :s

what happened to her voice. too much touring...

Kuu will make an appearance at MAKE A MONOGATARI 2023

I requested Yoake to do this for me

https://i.postimg.cc/13dZ9zyF/BLACK-WINGS.jpg

The new song is nice but that's it. Sounds so much like popping love cocktail and cie

My favorite song from WINGS is Heaven Tonight.

I wanna see the covers of the live tour angeL+monsteR.
Maybe they are live tour photos, but I was thinking is the Black Wings photoshoot, I don't know.

I recently heard that the UNIVERSE album had a very limited production of an edition that was just the UNIVERSE album by itself without the Best album included. Also, that this edition had its own cover artwork completely different from the UNIVERSE/BEST album bundles. Does anyone have any pictures of this limited edition version of the album?

I never heard this.

Kuu will perform at next week's MUSIC FAIR

Standalone wise , Kuu will sing Let's fight for love!

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/F6d1yVXb...ebp&name=small

All pictures from this shooting look so good, I am glad we are getting a ton of them (and not just the same one like she did with MY NAME IS lol)

The Postcard A I like more than the HMV one, so very happy that's the one I'm going to receive. I re-read the part about the acrylic figures on her website though, and they're ONLY for Koda Gumi members. Just ordering through mu-mo won't get you one.

I ordered the bracelets as well!! I won't wait like las time!!

Did Ku changed her settings on instagram? Now you can’t share her stuff on your stories :/

She was having a bit of trouble with her account, there were some fake acc around, probably trying to sell fake stuff or something, and she even lost access to it for a while. Guess IG is running a security check on her account and some others and it may be causing this :/

Those bastards!. Thank you! hopefully everything will be better soon!

Still no KODA KUMI LIVE TOUR 2023 ～angeL&monsteR～ rips? I'm checking JPS every day... Did I miss any links?

I wouldn't mind getting ahold of a copy of that as well...

No size limit, the higher the better as far as I'm concerned...

https://rhythmzone.net/koda/news/detail.php?id=1113013

I did want to buy the acrylic stands online but wow the starting price for them is 5,000 Yen minimum :s

I say the minimum asking price is expensive but yet there're still takers for the acrylic stands

But considering only fanclub members can get them , let alone the design's randomly allocated , I'm not surprised

In the end I settle for 2nd best , I got both angeL / monsteR postcards & Kuu's 20th anniversary backlog acrylic stand

Cheaper for me to afford somemore , lol

Is SO FEVER a new recording. It sounds different.

I do have a friend who went and bought a couple of the acrylic figures for some of those high prices. As for myself, I purchased a couple from the original tour goods and no longer have space for any kind of figures or display stuff of that sort, so I don't really have an interest in receiving anything else.

Hey, does anyone know if the remixes from Driving Hits Tokyo Auto Salon have leaked yet at all?

As far as I know, it hasn't... maybe in a couple of days when overseas fans start receiving their music cards. Such an odd release strategy btw, they could have sold a physical version with a goodie on the event and release it globally through streaming. Selling physical cards at an event just to download an album seems so odd to me...

^Thanks!! *Fingers crossed*

Oooh I didn't expect this, that's really good news !!!

Absolutely LOVE the covers!! I've preordered my fc edition already. Plus non-kkapp members are getting an acrylic stand with their copy this time. I'm looking forward to seeing the designs of them. :heart :luv2
Only thing to slightly disappoint me is that the latest Anniversary Event isn't included with the FC edition of the album. Was really hoping to have a physical copy of it.

Great covers, but I don't see the CD only on cdjapan, I don't know why ��

The CD Only wasn't listed on mu-mo yesterday either when I went to place my preorder for the FC edition.

Btw, I have much larger HQ images of the UNICORN covers if anyone is interested. They're 2048x2048.

Ku's Kray! she better give us a new sound!

@ILoveGeniuses: Yes please do.

Guys, pls help. I've been to Japan many times but Kuu never had concerts back while I was there. I have just bought tickets to Japan for July and she has concerts in Chiba (12.07), Ishikawa (15.07) and Kyoto (19.07) while I'm there. I know I have just missed the application / lottery in fan club (I'm not in fan club, but I would consider joining if tickets were stil available). Any idea how can I get a ticket for Chiba and / or Kyoto? I would like to secure it now but I'm afraid my only chance will be to try in Lawsons when I'm there which I'm scared will be too late. Are resellers still a thing? But again, I would like to know I have it before I go there, maybe some app will be selling tickets? Pls help.

Was not expecting an album announcement! Glad we have a solo version of Trust Last! Wish Jump to the Breeze had been included but looking forward to the reveal of the rest of the tracklist!

Here's the covers to UNICORN in HQ. I've uploaded 'em to mediafire in a single zip file.

^Thank you. I don't see the cover on mu-mo.

HMV Japan also , not just CDJapan

https://www.hmv.co.jp/en/artist_Kumi...album_1/#Items

Unfortunately general sales might be your only option. Depending when they go on sale, you may be able to use a middle man to purchase them before you get to Japan.

Sadly Kuu is really not concerned about foreign fans anymore. The KK App is unavailable outside of Japan (unless you sideload it). The ticket presale this time required membership to both KK App and Koda Gumi, the latter of which is not possible to register for without Japanese information (credit card, phone number, address).

But maybe someone else here knows something that I don't.

There is lottery rounds for both fanclubs and also one for the public (but you need to be registered to the ticket site afaik).
First was the lottery for members of both fanclubs, then for Koda Gumi, her main one, and right now it's for the KK app till February 25th. Having those three rounds isn't new, it's been like that for some years now (I think it started 2017 with the double member round? Back then with Koda Gumi and playroom ofc).
But indeed it's not made for international fans, but sadly that was to be expected with them closing down the international Koda Gumi.

The presale round for the public is March 2nd till March 6th (usually through the Lawson online site, but they haven't said yet).
General sale for the rest of the tickets then starts March 30th.
You can buy tickets from the general sale on the machines in Lawson stores, that might be an option being in Japan as well (as you said).
You find the info of the sale periods here:

They make announcements in the news section on her official site with the start of every round, so best to check the site regularly.
Some dates might not be available if they sell out through either of those rounds.
And if dates don't sell out, they also sold tickets at the venues in the past. But sometimes to a higher price and those seats are always in the back.
Tickets are also digital this time, so you need the Anypass app, which does work internationally.
(every person going with you needs a ticket through the app btw.)

Good luck, I seriously hope you will be able to snatch some tickets!

Thank you, it was bugging me that I was too late for FC tickets, at least I know there wasn't anything I could do anyway. I'm looking at bridge.jpn.com right now, someone recommended it to me as a middleman.

Thank you!!:luv2

hey, does anybody know the translation to the lyrics of "Hey baby" (iamSHUM REMIX) before "atashi kodomo ja nai"? I haven't heard these lyrics before, and I can't find them online either.
(or is it from another song altogether? it sounds vaguely familiar...)

This remix is from "Driving Hit's Tokyo Auto Salon"
