I sorta wonder if Ayu assigns them these roles... since usually choreographers tend to choose who dances with who based on who they think looks good together. But this is Ayu, so she'll probably obviously have favorites and people she'd want to dance with.. oi. Why Shu-ya of all people? Why not switch it up every concert? lol.

On the topic of dancers, I feel rather sad for the female dancers that didn't advance past CDL07-08.. that is, if those dancers were taken out or if they quit in general.. probably the former.

Oh oh, and about ANGEL'S SONG.. was it generally the same as the AT03-04 performance?

Oh, I see now. It's supposed to be kind of like that Ladies Night / alterna interlude thing.. but not really. Seems like Ayu's specialty is NOT these cutesy songs.. or it's rather difficult to come up with scenarios with them included in it [see: Beautiful Fighters / this ANGEL'S SONG..] though AT03-04's A DINER made sense whereas this was just.. attempting to remake the interlude-thing for the stage. And I kind of see what they did there.. she's supposed to be celebrating her 10th anniversary in this song with like, a magician and a cake, and a wacky outfit with ANGEL'S SONG. But I guess with Ayu not being 10 years old, it definitely looks.. strange.

It's highly likely that this lipsynching thing was just a bad case of lipsynching the chorus (which she definitely messed up) and singing the verses to me.. I guess it's because I hear a sort of echo when the verses are being sung, while the choruses lack it.
