She looks gorgeous but I wouldn't mind if she stopped singing POP DIVA for the rest of her career.

jiarongisme 27th September 2015 05:25 PM

POP DIVA is so great live though!

chocopockymaster 27th September 2015 05:30 PM

I NEED THAT SEA-URCHIN-ESQUE HAIR ACCESSORY URGENTLY

Earth_maiden 27th September 2015 06:32 PM

^seconded. Someone ask Kuu what it is and where she got it!

happiholic★ 27th September 2015 07:05 PM

Its like a sea urchin had a baby with those stick on bows one puts on presents.

Also, Pop Diva is a hot mess but it gets me pumped!

Gustavopc 27th September 2015 07:14 PM

Looking back at her 10th anniv and her 15th, we are having so many great concerts this year, but as a fan who does not live in Japan I was hoping for lots of releases like in 2010... We had three singles, a best, a studio album, a remix album, a cover album and the live tour release. This year we got an album, a best and now there's gonna be the tour release ): I do hope there is new music coming for the end lf the year, anything new would already make me happy

adantatu2 27th September 2015 10:49 PM

POP DIVA is one of my favourites along with TABOO, I think they're like sibling songs, lol.

pimenta 27th September 2015 11:15 PM

Kuu looks so tiny next to lol members haha

Diva_br 28th September 2015 12:39 AM

I had always wondered what was the "kori-kori" of which she spoke, until today

:P


Minttulatte 28th September 2015 01:55 AM

^I've been wondering what it is as well but thanks to you, I have an answer. :D And gosh I love that secret era hair. It's beyond fabulous~ :love

And POP DIVA kicks ass. I don't mind if she keeps performing it. I love it so much~ :heart

AyuGAME 28th September 2015 04:40 AM

she looks pretty...Finally she got rid of that purple-ish hair color...
POP DIVA is one song that I like from her...

I agree. Also, there hasn't been anything that has made me feel super excited to buy. Or at least an epic release like Kingdom, Japo or even Dejavu.

omggg the covers are so grogeous! I hope the Live CD has the DVD pic as its cover so I can buy it and the BR and have both hahahahah But I'll wait to see what the gift is to decide if I get the CD or not.

jiarongisme 28th September 2015 12:08 PM

Wish they chose better photos for the covers. Why do they have such bad compositions?! The photo for the Blu-ray one could potentially work, but not with that typography treatment...

But hey, the concert's great. Can't wait to get my hands on the DVD!

Corvina 28th September 2015 12:24 PM

I actually think the photo for the DVD works really well and much better than the BluRay. Which I get. So I hope the Live CD will have the DVD cover so I can get both. As I'm buying both anyway. :laugh

KarenPang 28th September 2015 12:27 PM

Wonder do avex has any plans to release her 1st Asian tour in DVD/Blu-ray ? It will be a shame if I can only remember it via memory

And I'm actually surprised they chose not to release both the domestic Japan & Asian tours together

That happened for Mizuki Nana when her LIVE FLIGHT DVD included both her domestic Japan & Asian tours together , except it had 6 DVDs , LOL

Gustavopc 28th September 2015 12:33 PM

Her Taiwan Live 2013 has never seen the light of day also, except for what is in the DH6 documentary... I thought they were going to release a live bundle, but seems like it was not the plan :laugh Maybe they'll make another FC exclusive release of it? Or pair it up with the next best or album? It'd be a shame of they don't release it, indeed

In that context, yes, the photo works better. Although still not the best.

Some sort footages as bonus content in the DVD of an upcoming release maybe? I don't see it being released on its own. There wasn't proper filming in the Singapore show if you remember. Only photographers.

Yeah I know but ah well . And yes I didn't recalled seeing any cameras when the concert took place locally here

I don't know was it the same for Taiwan . If there were special guests that were invited during her 1st Asian tour , then I can understand if chances for them to be released/recorded in DVD/Blu-ray will be low due to copyright issues and all that

But since there were none , I can only hope at most a digest clip footage but I'm not having high expectations on that either

pimenta 28th September 2015 02:58 PM

I don't like the covers :no
I like the pictures a lot, specially the DVD one, but I hate the writing covering everything, it doesn look good at all imo. The only way it would work would be if those were on a transparent slipcase on top of the actual case, then I could live with it...

Gustavopc 28th September 2015 03:13 PM

I like the text all over the cover, it's a trendy design and it follows the same style from the pamphlet and goodies. I do miss her shoots for the covers, like for Black Cherry and TRICK Tour, but these work really good. Bon Voyage covers were good, but I guess a shoot with that pin-up outfit would have looked better. JAPONESQUE Tour had a terrible cover, I'm glad there was a slipcase :laugh

melissalove 28th September 2015 03:22 PM

^^i dont like the covers either. The writing ruin everything :(

Kingdom tour covers were amazing.

Gustavopc 28th September 2015 03:30 PM

^ I like the shooting itself, but to me they fail cause they had nothing to do with the tour imo :dead2 It's like they took a magazine shooting leftover and used it

oaristos 28th September 2015 03:30 PM

i liked the covers, especially the blu-ray one. i'd totally buy it.

i love the covers for her dejavu tour. flawless:D

pimenta 28th September 2015 04:14 PM

^ YES! Those were awesome :heart

I like all the covers that had a special shoot, and I also like the ones that had pictures from the actual tour (specially Bon Voyage), the only thing I don't like on WOML ones is writing on top of everyting >_<

Minttulatte 28th September 2015 04:41 PM

I personally like those covers. DVD cover is my favorite. :D

My all time favorite concert covers are Dejavu and Kingdom. Fabulous as fuck~ :heart

I guess the only things that are related to it are the fact that it's about luxury and glamour, and also the leopard prints. But yeah, nothing much that's directly related to the concert. The photos are still gorgeous though. If we were to talk about recycling photoshoots for DVD covers, then I think the second session tour takes the cake. It's literally from the secret bonus photobook shoot :laugh

Gustavopc 28th September 2015 05:11 PM

^ Oh yes, how could I forget that :roflmao And the pic under the slipcase is terrible also, oversatured af

I totally forgot about UNIVERSE Tour, I love that cover! It may be my fav from her tour covers :yes

jiarongisme 28th September 2015 05:13 PM

UNIVERSE tour had a great art direction going on. The concert itself was amazing too. One of the best overall packages. Great concert, great branding, great everything. :yes

happiholic★ 28th September 2015 06:12 PM

I LOVE Universe Tour. Everything about it was perfect.

UNIVERSE Tour is great. But I always tend to forget about it, cause of Dream Music Park. :P

Kuu together with model/actress Enosawa Manami

Enosawa Manami was 1 of the many models who walked the runway at this year's Tokyo Girls Collection

luna7996 28th September 2015 07:16 PM

I think I am the only one who likes the covers for the blu-ray and dvd. :P

This will be my first Kuu concert to pre-order. I always just download them because all my money goes to Ayu. Now that I am getting more hours at work I have a little more wiggle room and Kuu always has amazing concerts.

melissalove 28th September 2015 07:24 PM

Wow kumi looks drained!!

KarenPang 28th September 2015 07:29 PM

lol I'm not sure if she stayed on to watch the entire Tokyo Girls Collection as the whole event lasted 6 hours :dead2

And other artistes who also performed at the event like Crystal Kay also only sang 2 songs , not just Kuu

In addition , I think Kuu attended the Tokyo Girls Collection event with her husband as I saw a photo of Kenji who he posed together with the lol group via Twitter

Gustavopc 28th September 2015 08:15 PM

^ I love how these two are almost always together at these events, makes me feel so happy for them <3 Their marriage was on a rush, but I'm glad that they matched so well. Also knowing how Kuu has always been a romantic girl from her interviews makes me feel happier hahahah

NintendoHTF1242 29th September 2015 12:39 AM

I decided to go through my Kuu album booklets and I realized I've been singing the English parts to Like It wrong... My version is a lot raunchier than Kuu's LOL she says "I know you want to zoom zoom on it"... I thought she was saying, "the way you do do me all night" lol

jean-baptiste 29th September 2015 03:06 AM

I like the DVD cover better but I'll probably still get the Bluray version.

My favorite of her tour covers would have to be UNIVERSE Tour and JAPONESQUE was very nice too.

Delicious n Bold 29th September 2015 03:23 AM

Praying for kumi's english on her forthcoming album #KK13
I hope #KK13 has iconic moments. Queen is finally free, she should show us what she's finally made of tbh

Gustavopc 29th September 2015 03:29 AM

I really want her to keep on the WOML style, that is the best Kuu album to workout listening to. Even Dance In The Rain is a good tune, the beat is involving and so upbeat in the chorus it motivates me.

happiholic★ 29th September 2015 04:28 AM

Dance in the Rain may very well be my new favorite song from her. I'm still not sick of it and I play it a lot.

Diva_br 29th September 2015 04:34 AM

Dancing in the Rain is one of her best songs ever :heart

NintendoHTF1242 29th September 2015 05:14 AM

Dance in the Rain is okay. I just wish she wasn't shouting so obnoxiously in the chorus. But then again, I love Lippy so I can't complain about obnoxious choruses.

I have to agree. I think that song is perfect. And I don't say that easily about any song.

I'd also like her to continue in the direction of WOML in terms of the mature and cohesive sound, but there's definitely room for improvement.

Corvina 29th September 2015 08:52 AM

Whoever said, this anniversary doesn't feel special in regards of releases was so right. This year feels so normal for Kuu, no, even underwhelming with new music.
Though all those lives and special pefromances are a great way to celebrate - if we ever get some of those.
I actually can't believe they won't release at least her a-nation live.
Here's still hoping for some great bundle being released - b-side best with new music ( like Kana Nishino's), complete live best bundle, a themed album bundled with one of those lives e.g. Fan interaction with voting would be nice as well.
Avex, I am ready to be milked! Just make it really worth it, please!

ayumisrael 29th September 2015 10:03 AM

Releases wise they probably thought they could get away with SUMMER of LOVE? :P

Where are 3 singles in 3 months leading to a special some sora album/new original album on the same year, 2CD+2DVD 2CD+Blu-ray bundles and stuff kuu we used to have in the past?
I can so understand you Corvina lol.

KarenPang 29th September 2015 11:30 AM

I think this year being her 15th anniversary , it's definitely different as compared to her 10th anniversary

I feel that this year , Kuu emphasised a lot more in performing , be it when comes to her domestic tour to promote WALK OF MY LIFE & also when comes to performing in music/non music festivals , let alone in (finally) embarking on her 1st (short) Asian tour

As what Gustavopc said earlier , if you're living in Japan , the Japanese fans benefit as live performances wise , they have been spoilt non stop but for us , it's at a disadvantage & we want new music from Kuu in order to feel 'compensated'

And a while back Kuu even said she was busy recording new material , probably she might debut something new during her impending December last round of concerts or she does not have a habit of debuting a new song before an actual release surfaces ? :confused

Gustavopc 29th September 2015 01:06 PM

^ Usually there is something just coming out around her non-tour shows. There was TABOO around Dirty Ballroom, Gossip Candy around DMP, Dreaming Now! and Let's Party Vol. 2... I guess the only concert out of this rule was FANTASIA... You could pre-order POP DIVA at the venue, but I don't know if covers were even out and the song was not performed (but she did do some from ETERNITY which had been released I guess two months before it).

That blog post saying she was producing new music is my only hope now, I need sonething new from her lol

On another topic, I am hoping they rename the 15th Anniv Live, Kuu is always so creative with her concert themes :P

Lee^ChaN 29th September 2015 02:37 PM

I guess she'll release a new single in Nov.. autumn ballad, maybe?

Anyone coming for special live on Dec?
The registration starts tomorrow btw..

Too expensive after visiting in June already. ;_;

KarenPang 29th September 2015 03:14 PM

Not to sound pessimistic but I don't think Kuu will release anymore new material this year

If not , her new single details would have been announced before the WALK OF MY LIFE DVD/Blu-ray if not co-currently on the same release date

And airfares to Japan during December ain't cheap for me . I spent almost 1,000 bucks last year when I went back Tokyo at the last week of the year/month :dead2

On off peak periods , I would pay probably 700 bucks for the airfare if I go Japan

Lee^ChaN 29th September 2015 03:36 PM

@Chocopockymaster & @Corvina: Noooo~
Going to concert alone again :( :( :(

@Karen: but the beginning of Dec should be off season, right?

KarenPang 29th September 2015 03:42 PM

^ Nope , still almost close to 1,000 bucks when I checked JAL x_x

ANA is slightly cheaper at around 800 bucks though

Anyway , there's nothing wrong with going to a concert alone . I did that a few times although it wouldn't be the same with fangirling with other fans together :x

Luck16 29th September 2015 04:02 PM

We better get used to her releasing less and less new material... we ain't in 2006 anymore, sadly.

800 bucks.. quite expensive :no
I usually go alone if no Kuu family member comes.
But yeah, going with friends is way better.. and crazier :rolleyes

jean-baptiste 29th September 2015 04:46 PM

I honestly didn't expect her to release things like crazy for her 15th, despite the fact that she promoted it as a special event (with a logo and everything lol). I feel like we could expect more for a 20th anniversary.

Gustavopc 29th September 2015 11:13 PM

I was thinking about a ballad single, and I'd love to see something in the veins of Suki de / Anata dake ga, but like:

1. Rnb ballad featuring a female rapper
2. Dramatic piano ballad like 0ji mae no tsunderera
3. Ai no uta (15th Anniversary Version)

I know you're watching, avex, gimme that winter jam

Ai no Uta ~to the future~ perhaps ;)

I'd love to work for Kuu but I don't think they would hire a chemical engineer for her crew :roflmao Plus remember Kuu is now finally free, ain't no one going to tell het what to release maybe except for SUMMER of LOVE.

Corvina 30th September 2015 03:45 PM

According to the Koda Gumi mail today about the registration for the Anniversary Live tickets, the Tokyo dates will most probably be recorded.
Guess we get a release for that like for Fantasia.

Onegai no. I'd rather have Butterfly ~fly to the flower~ version. Just recently I even deleted Ai no Uta from my Kumi's iTunes playlist. I'm so sick and tired of this song. I want another stay with me or Kimi Omoi, I can't get enough of these two.

KuuXAyu-fan 30th September 2015 11:20 PM

Kuu just posted the video for October in the global fanclub and she's in the studio! She confirmed that she's working on something. You can even hear a snippet of a new song for like 2 seconds in the background :P Hopefully we get an announcement in about 2-3 weeks for a late December single!

Zeke. 1st October 2015 12:18 AM

I hope it's a winter ballad and I hope the impact of it is similar to being pelted in the face with a chunk of ice.

YAAAAAAAAAAASSSS

On another topic, has anyone pre ordered the tour CD+DVD/BR? Does it automatically puts the bonus gift or is there a special to do so?

maze 1st October 2015 01:19 AM

Since she fuc*ed up her release pattern with SUMMER of LOVE I hope a new single is not coming but instead WINTER of LOVE. 3 new ballads and 2 new PVs please

I think I'm buying the blu-ray tour this time (even tho the covers look fanmade). WALK OF MY LIFE has become one of my favorite albums from her and the concert seems to be amazing once again

The goal of KODA KUMI « Show You How Much We Love You » 15th Anniversary INTERNATIONAL FANS PROJECT (Big headline) is that each of us will shoot a little video, less than 10 seconds (with cell phone or webcam) to wish the 15th anniversary of carrer of Kumi. Futhermore, if you want you can also take a photo of you with some kumi’s stuff (CD, DVD, Goodies). After that, I will publish on all our social netwooks.
Who’s Up for this project ?
‪#‎David‬

My page will be in :D

See, to me it sounds more midtempo, similar like WOML or parts of DITR. :laugh It is hard to tell, but it's nothing upbeat.

kaled kalil 1st October 2015 03:57 PM

This might sound offtopic but it's not, at all.

Namie is looking for another collaboration, and asking people who they want her to collaborate. Let's vote the hell out of this with Kumi's name. haha

I see. Hopefully we'll get a preview soon then because I'm really curious about this new song. I hope it's different, but that it has that specific Kuu feel that makes me think, "yep, this is definitely a Koda Kumi song". :yes

maze 1st October 2015 06:31 PM

I also voted for kuu, if there is a decent artist I want kuu to collaborate with that would definitely be namie. Something like TABOO or BLACK DIAMOND would be perfect

I hope more sites/pages join to the project :D

I put Kuu on my votes, also Miliyah and JASMINE :D

I'm super surprised we didn't get a remix album this year.

KarenPang 2nd October 2015 05:19 AM

Kuu has been nominated in the Best Female Video -Japan- category in the upcoming MTV VMAJ 2015 !

http://www.mtvjapan.com/vmaj2015/nom...-female-video/

Kuu's WALK OF MY LIFE will compete against Namie's Birthday , Katahira Rina's Kemutai , Shiina Ringo's Nagaku Mijikai Matsuri & Superfly's On Your Side

Voting period has already started today & will close next month on 7th Nov ; 11.59pm Japan time

Corvina 2nd October 2015 07:31 AM

Oh, nice. Doesn't happen often anymore, that she's nominated for something music related.

Btw. YKBX did both Dance In The Rain and WALK OF MY LIFE PVs. Both are great, so I hope she keeps him/them around for the next album as well.

Edit:
Kuu made a post on LINE.
WOML DVD is ready now. Kuu is still in the studio.
And they're considering songs for the lives in December.
That's why there's a questionnaire:
What Koda Kumi song would you recommend to a friend?
Post your answers till 10/09.

People, let's spam her with rare songs! :D

Gustavopc 2nd October 2015 12:45 PM

^ I never really used LINE, is it an app-only thing? Wanna vote for some old songs!

And omg Im gonna vote the hell out of VMAJ hahahaha I am so happy she got nominated, and especially because it's such a meaningful video/song :heart Hopefully she'll attend the ceremony also, gimme those red carpet looks Kuu <3

KarenPang 2nd October 2015 12:50 PM

LINE is similar to WhatsApp in terms of staying in touch with people except that I feel LINE is more fun/easier to use , due to the numerous free stickers they have

Speaking of stickers , Kuu should come up with her own set of LINE stickers . Many artistes have already done so , why not her ?
