Thanks! I pre-ordered the blu-ray one along with the new album's blu-ray.

I wanna see what the TA goods will look like, otherwise I'll wait for the OS release.

I hope it features some bonus content.

Definitely getting this countdown live cos it's pure awesomeness! April is gonna be a great month

The CDL was awesome indeed, but Ill wait for covers to decide whether to buy it or not

I want to know what TA Limited Goods the CDL will have too. Still ordered both Album w/BD+CDL BD from CDJapan. If I like the TA Limited I will cancel the CDL BD and order from TA.

Hope that they will announce everything soon!

So, I watched part of this on YouTube. I am horrified at her performance. She isn't really singing, seems almost catatonic on stage, and isn't staying in key on very many of the songs. WTF HAPPENED?

For the TA special edition/goods, does any one know if TA members can buy on concert venues instead of ordering thru the TA shop? If can maybe will consider buying at venue instead

She improved, that's what happened. Watch her Forgiveness performance from this concert. Of course she messed up several songs, but overall it's a very decent show in terms of her vocals. We've heard far, far worse vocals from her than these.

Really excited for this. Hoping that the cover will feature a shot from the Last minute performance.

Also, I think the 'making of' shots in the credits will just feature those YouTube/TA videos we've seen so far. Damn.

What? This is one of her BEST CDLs to date! Vocally, it seems like she's never been better.

Agreed. I am so, so confused when people bash her vocals in the latest CDL--her improvement is insane. Her technique is so different and the last time she was that on-key was in, like, 2000 before she started having ear issues.

You can really tell she got a new vocal coach that knows what she's doing. No offense to Manaho, I suppose, but the improvement is so obvious after working with the woman who helps out all those Western pop artists.

If only she could do acrobatics/dance routine and still sing live like Pink.

^yeah!! I saw that one performance and it was insane!! Really awesome... Perhaps this tour? or next CDL? LOL Someone tweet that vid to ayu!!

I think people complain because there was a time when ayu's vocals were way over filtered. (extreme example CDL 2013-14 and premium tour) Now we're hearing ayu live, without filters thanks to her successful vocal lessons. I think some might have gotten used to the filters. :yes

XOXO TROLL
