OK, I am going to receive hate for this as always, but it was an ordinary Ayu concert vocal-wise. Ear plugs let me hear all her misses. She did very good on some ballads, singing in a quiet way, but overall lots of screaming, going off-key, improper technique, baby voice, forced vibrato, struggling with high notes, etc. Nothing like her pre-recorded TV performances which tend to be actually good. But the show itself was very enjoyable. It felt great to be allowed to sing along again. We were going wild during the remix section. And dancers came to our seats multiple times.
Camera operator was next to us and he was filming 2 foreign girls in cosplay. He zoomed in into a necklace for like a minute.
Monitors with song lyrics were very visible on stages, it was fun to watch them.
MC was very funny, especially when ayu asked if Yocchan planned to eat the whole cake. And holding a baby moment was adorable.
