Finally watched the tour, it was amazing. However since we don't live in a perfect world, there are somethings I'd change:

Spoiler:
-I'd open the concert with "Terminal/Connected". Have her come down in the ball and perform both songs while floating around the stage in it. Then come out of the ball and sing "Whatever/last angel" on stage.

-I think all the dancey songs need to be together. She opens with 2 dancey songs, then has a rock section and a ballad section, then sings 2 more dancey songs.

-The "To be/Hello new me" performance was beautiful and the outfit was nice but it didn't really fit the concert. I don't really think it would fit no matter where it was placed in the setlist. I'd cut it and save it for another concert.

-I'd put Step you in with the rock section of the concert. I'm honestly just glad it's no longer a "cutesy" song.

-She should have ended the concert with Angel. It was just so fucking beautiful and having her rise into the sky into darkness seemed like such an "ending" to the concert. It would have made sense for her to start the concert coming down from the sky singing Terminal (which sings about devils) and then end the concert rising up back into the sky singing Angel (which sings about angels).

-What is Forever love is a mess. I'd just take it out. period.
-same with Bold & Delicious. It's not a mess, but it just doesn't belong in this concert.

-Since she lowered the key of Connected and it worked amazingly I think she should perform still alone. Also since I cut 4 songs out of the setlist (hello new me, to be, Bold & Delicious, and what is forever love) we need more songs. lol

So something like this:

01. Terminal
02. Connected
03. WHATEVER
04. Last angel
05. Sparkle
06. STEP you
------
07. NOW & 4EVA
08. decision
09. Tell me why
10. NEVER EVER
11. still alone
12. Because of You
------
13. Merry-go-round
14. XOXO
15. Lelio
16. You & Me
17. Feel the love
18. Angel


Even though I listed a bunch of changes, I still think this is an amazing concert and will probably buy the bluray.

----------I just noticed that in the performance for feel the love, she mixed in elements of the Dj Hello Kitty remix. They also opened the concert with the song. She really should just perform it already. I feel like she really wants to, but is afraid people will complain that she's performing a remix and paid money just to have her not perform the original song.
