I don't know what to think of this.
The setlist seems unusual to me. The songs don't feel like they go together. Pieces of SEVEN seems like a random choice to me as well. But I am happy about Walk, was not expecting that.
Vocals sound nice except for that Fly high video. But Ayu seemed so happy singing it.
Some of the aesthetic of this tour felt like 50 Shades of Grey or something. I don't know what to make of it visually. I also agree that some outfits don't seem flattering to her figure but it's not a big deal for me.
It does seem shorter than usual but it isn't like it's too short. Tons of normal concerts have similar lengths. It's the quality of the performance that matters. But I don't think this tour before a tour is very effective. It just feels strange so far. We will have to keep watching and see what unfolds.
