Thanks for creating the new thread, Kaled! :D
I am so ansious for The Artists but otoh I am thinking of being off a while and not read or see anything about it until I get the full concert to watch, I wanna be surprised so bad hahaha |
Quote:
and thanks for the new thread :P |
You're welcome! :)
So, I was looking at some images of Kuu that I have, and I have some screenshots of the 3D version of Dream Music Park, which I actually have a .torrent file but I still can't download the video. Do you guys know where I can find a working link to it? Spoiler:
I'm pretty sure that this is a hard file to get, since it has been around for five years on those closed forums and stuff, but I thought of giving a shot and see if anyone here has the file. |

The design for the ticket stubs for fanclub members is a small issue although for me I would have loved to see more emphasised placed on other things as utilising past DVD covers & a captionless logo don't do it for me :x |
concert tickets are never that special in general
Quote:
so, I've just watched the Inazuma rock fes and I didnt know she was wearing that ugly outfit lol. but I loved her energy as always, and her hair is so great this year. |
WALK OF MY LIFE (from「Koda Kumi 15th Anniversary Live Tour 2015 ~WALK OF MY LIFE~」)
And Edu , I disagree . Some concert tickets' designs I've seen of other JPop artistes are designed very nicely , unlike here :x |
I am not so sure if they're fanmade also, I've seen more than one pic of that artwork on instagram, and there I also saw a third ticket with the normal KXVK logo on a black background with the round one over it... Maybe each date has a different design?
|
No, it isn't fanmade.
There are two designs with her DVD covers, that's why I posted them. Just wanted to post another pic with the second design on the actual tickets, but my mobile phone doesn't want right now, lol. And yes, there's also a third with the Koda Gumi logo. If you apply and buy tickets, the design you'll get will be random. |
Considering that most Japanese concert tickets are simple, boring and have nothing special about them, I find this concert's tickets quite nice, even if they don't have the best collage ever.
|
Somebody correct me if I got it wrong, but they're releasing a second line-up of goodies on this Friday, right? Gosh, my December shipment from tenso is gonna cost me all my savings from this year, hopefully everything arrives there before those 30 days since I got the live CD...
|
we will have the line up this week, but i guess the release day will be the same of the first the artist live... :/
|
^ omg *crossing fingers for fast shipping* I don't know how it went with her tour goodies, I bought the big pamhplet on the pre-order and months later the Koda Gumi tee x:
|
I cross the fingers for you too !!
I won't have this problem this time because a friend going to the live will buy the goodies i want and i'll go to her next live tour ♥ |

hahahah thanks girls, a shame next year is already impossible for me :( Unless she has concerts during October or later (FC Tour would be perfect, I would sell even all my furniture to have the money if I needed to hahahaha)
|
Kuu just got awared with a special price by MTV VMAJ.
She won the "Contribution to Entertainment" award, together with Ken Hirai and JUJU. It was announced today at her FC. Here is a screenshot from the official VMAJ site: http://imageshack.com/a/img903/2781/k5ofWP.jpg |
^ That's awesome! What better way to close her anniversary this year than an Award like that. :)
|
YEEEEY, so happy for her :heart When is the awards ceremony? Any chances she'll be attending it?
|
Congrats to Kuu, I miss her so bad
guys I have a question, a friend of mine is gonna buy for me the 2015 tour bluray in Japan. is there first press for those dvds/bluray that are sold in stores there in Japan? |
oh, that's great news! she deserves all awards in the world :)
|
Quote:
|
Queen won a award? Good. Now other bitches will cry in the corner because they didn't get this award lol. XD
|
@Gustavopc The ceremony was a couple of days ago.
So, since The Artist is already next week, what are you guys expecting from the concert? I'm not talking about the setlist (chocopockymaster will be thankful if we don't start listing songs again haha). |
^ Now I really got late, for sure :laugh
I don't think I am doing a setlist, but I think we could... Spoiler:
|
Funny thing is that there is no Butterfly in your bingo. And it might even be the first song. HAHA
|
That bingo idea is brilliant, made my day, hahaha.
Only problem is that we'll all score exactly the same, we all win! Haha. |
Quote:
|
Your Bingo idea is brilliant, laughed so loud. xD
But seriously, I have no idea, what Kuu will be doing with the Artist. It feels like she already did everything. My only hope his, as the theme seems to underline her performance abilities, we'll get a concert full of special performances with her dacing, doing stunts and so on. Setlist wouldn't even matter that much then. Though she hadn't got much time to prepare something too extraordinary... |
Quote:
your bingo is incomplete without you and Ningyo-Hime xDDDDD |
A bit off topic but Anime Festival Asia Singapore 2015 kicks off today & 1 of the performers for today's event as part of the I Love Anisong segment is BACK-ON
Any chances of Kuu tagging along to support Kenji ? Somehow I doubt so although it will be a surprise to see her once again back here |
Second batch of the Artists goods are out!
Available 11/30, 6 PM japanese time. http://img5.fotos-hochladen.net/uplo...1heropxtw5.jpg A backpack, 4 different Kloop keyholder, a hoodie and a military jacket. Everything is already up for preorder on mu-mo: http://shop.mu-mo.net/a/list1/?categ...adpcnt=7vg_9fC |
I can't help but look at these keychains and imagine how much better they'd look with Koda Guma instead of KLOOP *sighs* The new goodies don't interest me much btw, but since there's a military jacket and there's a camouflage pattern on the hoodie... I wonder if there's gonna some military theme going around in The Artist...
|
^ Totally agree about the keychains... anything looks better with Koda kuma instead of Kloop.
I would have loved the pullover hoodie it wasn't for that square in the back... The writing itself should have had the camouflage pattern instead of being on a random camouflage square :( I like the military jacket. |
aww I actually like the keyholders with Kloop ~
|
I don't mind Kloop as well.
Actually it doesn't make a big difference to me if it's Kuma or Kloop. But I have to say, all the Kloop plushies and backpacks are so much better in design and quality than the Kuma ones. All Kuma plushies were horrible! |
the backpack *_*
|
Kloop makes a really nice backpack. I never actually saw the Kuma ones.. or were there just plushies?
|
There were plushies and keyholder plushies for Kuma among other stuff. No backpack, yes, but I just mentioned them for comparison.
|
KLOOP is too 90s for me, but bad 90s :dead2 Kuma looked genuinely cute to me alao
|
The Koda Kuma plushie is a little weird, I'm not fan of those. I like that Kuma inside most of her light stick.
She looks so cute inside the UNIVERSE Tour light stick http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kumi-Koda-Un...IAAOSwRLZT2MVJ And the JAPONESQUE Tour one is hella cute as well http://i50.tinypic.com/szk7bq.jpg |
The bon voyage tour lighstick with kuma is adorable as well, I have one :heart
I have no problem with Koda Kuma's plushies, I find her cute, whereas kloop looks horrid anyway I look imo. |
Shintarow already has his copy of WOML tour
http://i.imgur.com/eZIihko.jpg source: fb and instagram I cant believe people in Japan are still using dvds :$ pimenta: thank you for the reply ;) |
Kuu's website indicates that recording might be done for the Saitama Super Arena dates for KODA KUMI 15th Anniversary LIVE The Artist
http://rhythmzone.net/koda/live/tour.php?id=1000496 |
^ Nice! :D
|
What's wrong with using DVDs? They're cheaper than Blu-Rays and quality is still good. It may not be as good as HD shit, but it's not blurry shit either. I buy both DVDs and Blu-Rays depending on their prices. :D
|
Koda Kumi is releasing another compilation album called Winter of Love, 20.1.2016
It will have 2 new songs ;) |
Avex is probably reading us lol
http://i.imgur.com/jEC1MI0.jpg 2 new songs, 2 new MVs a-nation 15th anniversary premium live as bonus dvd http://rhythmzone.net/koda/news/detail.php?id=1029337 Covers are hot *_* |
oO Oo
They listed the wrong year oh dear :roflmao 4 editions this time round for WINTER of LOVE , wow but funny enough I liked the covers more than SUMMER of LOVE |
After Namie has set a single for 2105 now Kuu is going back in time and releasing an album this year's January yaaas time ladies slay
Now on the serious note, I'm not sure if I like the release, but at least the covers are prettier than SoL's. And whyyy they have to make the CD+Live DVD more expensive than the CD+BR? Is there going to be a special package for it at least? Plus this makes me wonder when we're getting a new studio album :( |
It's like Avex is doing everything they can to ruin Kuu and Ayu's careers. LOL
|
@Gustavopc - normally if the DVD has live footages , it will be more expensive , likewise if it's sold as a single and/or compilation album
The version with the Koda Kumi 15th Anniversary Premium Live footages can only be purchased via her fanclub & it doesn't look like the full concert to me :x Also it wouldn't hurt for avex to use different covers for both the CD & DVD and CD + Blu-ray versions for WINTER of LOVE , like what they've done for SUMMER of LOVE -_- |
at least this makes Summer of Love less pointless. would have been awful a ballad single for this era after making the "summer single" a compilation album
did you notice there isnt LOADED feat. Sean Paul performance included in the Live DVD |
@KarenPang I see, a shame it's more expensive and it's not even a BD ): And about the covers... They are really the same? I thought there was a pic missing from her website only, if it's the same then this release is even lazier than I was expecting

WINTER of LOVE
Koda Kumi Winter Collection Album Release 2016.01.20 4 editions CD only CD+DVD CD+BluRay FC edition: CD+DVD First Press is a special packaging. Covers and content: CD only http://imageshack.com/a/img903/2446/MMF6kx.jpg CD RZCD-86048 ¥2,400(tax out) Spoiler:
CD+DVD and CD+BluRay http://imageshack.com/a/img907/3707/IRvLiI.jpg CD+DVD RZCD-86046/B ¥3,000(tax out) CD+Blu-ray RZCD-86047/B ¥3,500(tax out) Spoiler:
FC edition (CD+DVD) http://imageshack.com/a/img633/4211/hMjCaS.jpg RZC1-86049/B ¥4,500(tax out) Spoiler:
Short summary: Two new songs, On And On and NO ME WITHOU YOU plus PVs and making ofs. PVs only on the DVD and BluRay editions. The a-nation live will be ONLY on the FC edition - but the FC edition won't have any PVs. The a-nation live isn't the full thing - probably due to rights of the songs. So it's just Kuu's songs. Minus LOADED with Sean Paul, Twinkle with Show and the medley with Misono (which had a Misono song in it), but I guess they didn't allow to use any footage with them. |
I hate FC only releases. :headache
|
Guess I'll preorder the FC ver before it sells out and when/if I have the money I'll get the CD+BR... Funny thing how for the winter release she's showing off as much skin as for the summer one lol
|
WINTER of LOVE bigger covers
CD http://cdn2.natalie.mu/media/1511/11...akumi_CDJK.jpg CD + DVD , CD + Blu-ray http://cdn2.natalie.mu/media/1511/11...kumi_DVDJK.jpg CD + DVD fanclub edition http://cdn2.natalie.mu/media/1511/11...akumi_FCJK.jpg Promo picture http://cdn2.natalie.mu/media/1511/11..._art201511.jpg http://natalie.mu/music/news/167618 |
ayu's classical album and now kumi's collection album. Wow is like their teams are desperately trying to prevent these two from flopping to the max. At this point, this all seems a little desperate. Hope it works :rolleyes
|
Thank you for the bigger covers and info
But are all of those songs that KUU has performed? I mean I'm only interested in her performances not the other irrelevant people. only LOADED is lacking riight? the CD feels like a lame version of Bounce&Lovers, but I'm pretty happy with two new songs and videos, hope one of them is a little upbeat like Winter Bell o Good Day, I miss thos kind of songs |
Guys, you should be partying, there's Aisho on the album. :laugh
Transcription of the tracklist; 01 On And On 02 Kiseki 03 hands 04 Promise 05 you 06 Yume no Uta 07 Unmei 08 Aisho 09 Ai no Uta 10 Moon Crying 11 stay with me 12 Suki de, Suki de, Suki de. 13 Anata dake ga 14 Ai wo tomenaide 15 Koishikute 16 Dance In The Rain 17 NO ME WITHOUT YOU |
tbh the tracklist is better than B&L for me :laugh I miss some album tracks but that's ok
|
I know Ayu & Kuu cannot sell well anymore when comes to releasing singles but this's just really ridiculous :no
avex is so shrewd , it's like saying oh if you want to hear both ladies' new material , you can't do that . You have to buy the entire release to do so x_x Oh well luckily their material is sold on iTunes Japan so that's not so bad , I rather just buy the new songs online instead of this -_- |
Quote:
|
I never knew Aisho was a winter song haha. Dance in the rain because of the rain I guess
|
Have to agree, the tracklist is pretty good.
Really like the covers as well. Though CD only is a bit strange. Quote:
From the other artist's sets only the set from DJ Hasebe is included. That's the full setlist, the ones being on WINTER of LOVE are bolded, the red ones are missing: Spoiler:
They also changed the order of some parts a bit. |
^ I am TOTALLY okay with no misono singing Butterfly. YAY
I was just talking yesterday about Winter of Love with gustavoPC. lol I don't see why this release is ridiculous, but okay. My only problem is that the release is not for this year. Really happy to see the A-nation live will become a DVD for the album, even tho it doesn't fit the theme at all. The covers are goooorgeous, a little better than Summer of Love. The setlist is kinda good, I just don't know why Dance in The Rain is there. I hope On and On and NO ME WITHOUT YOU are good songs. |
Hm yeah, ok I guess... I can't say I didn't see this one coming eventually
|
What are the benefits for that set of the CD+Live DVD + any other version on the Koda Gumi shop? Google translate works so poorly on Japanese :dead2
|
My concern is other record labels will follow avex's pattern of release & other artistes who're not under avex might follow the same thing in the future
I hope it will not happen though |
The FC cover is the best for me.
|
Quote:
It's not decided yet. It's just listed as "benefit A and B". ;) There are two different goodies coming for the sets at the FC shop. Btw. all editions are also coming with this Sumapura service, just like Ayu's new winter album. |
^ Oh, that's why I couldn't understand what the benefits were :roflmao Thanks for explaining lol
|
Apparently "On and On" PV is filmed on a cell phone?
http://rhythmzone.net/koda/news/detail.php?id=1029337 There's some description here Also what do you guys think will happen for Kuu's tour next year? |
^ KODA KUMI Live Tour 2016 ~SEASONS of Love~.
|
Quote:
|
So On and On will the ultimate cellphone ballad anthem :laugh I am curious on how it will sound like... I'd guess it'll be typical classical-ish ballad and NO ME WITHOUT YOU (can't help but think this will be related to NO ELSE ONE BUT YOU) will be the rnb tune I was waiting for.
And mu-mo has shipped my copy of WOML Tour, yey! |
I can't wait to see the promotion for this album and her singing Ai no Uta everywhere. <3
|
Wow what a reverse A7 winter classics experience. I wonder if we'll get the other two season collections.
I wonder if these releases are the price of freedom... |
CD only and Fanclub cover are both fabulous, much nicer than the Summer Of Love ones IMO but you know they shot these on the same day and then put some filters over these covers (At least that's what it looks like) Idk why they don't just release singles instead of these albums, they won't sell any better than a single...
|
Omg I want the fan club version u.u
|
Quote:
It's further explained, that On And On is a song with the theme of "people being connected to each other". The PV will reflect that, as smartphones are an important tool to stay connected even with distance through video phoning. So they apparently shot the video in smartphone size (length being bigger than width). It looks like Kuu will be shown in different scenes singing on the smartphone (but I'm not completly sure with this sentence). |
On And On reminds me of Love goes like... Though I doubt it's gonna be similar at all :laugh
|
Is she going for an Australian winter theme? Because even though these covers are pretty, I don't think they seem very wintry at all.
I like the concept for On and On and can't wait to hear the preview. |
The covers don't feel "winter" at all, but I like them :heart I like how they fit with the previous best, it's gonna look like a nice duo on the shelf.
I like the tracklist as well. Can't wait for the previews of the new songs. EDIT: does anyone know what the heck is スマプラ (sumapura)? |

When purchasers download an app , the physical purchase of the music will be downloaded and made available on their smartphone or tablet , via Sumapura Music and Sumapura Video |

Not that I don't want to but, you know, this is as lazy as it gets |
Quote:
I wish the CD only cover was for the CD+DVD/BD versions, It's by far the best imo, but I won't buy the CD only :( |
I think it's nice as it's breaking her usual release schedule. Unless she's releasing a new album in February right behind.
|
^ As much as I want a new studio album, for the sake of my wallet oh no she better don't. WoL has already four versions, much as WOML and BV had, I guess they are indeed postponing an album.
|
As someone who absolutely worships Kuu's winter ballads I'm having a party here. FINALLY I GOT WHAT I NEEDED. \o/
As for next year's tour. I would kill for another Billboard Live Tour tbh. The first one was fabulous (and made me love Ai no Kotoba) so another one with a setlist of ballads and few catchy tunes would be so wonderful imo. :heart |
And that's the good thing about having same covers and contents for DVD and BluRay edition - for collectors it makes one edition less to buy. :laugh
|
Quote:
|
^ I am excited as well!
@Luck16 I know she won't promote, but as pimenta said: this is another reason for keep singing Ai no uta. haha |
