Made in Japan did have fewer shows that previous tours.

I think the two years of TA tours in a row have been an experiment of potential future directions. Look at Namie and Koda -- they both do a ton of shows per year, but they're playing halls and smaller venues. The production is minimal or non-existant, smaller staff, etc. It's easier to move around from venue to venue, with fewer overhead costs to running the show. Ayu definitely isn't at the point yet that she needs to do that, but it might be a direction she takes in a few more years.
