It's not what we expected (she even trolled us showing Earth globe before the announcement lol), but she wasn't making much ado for nothing, it's really big for her and her fanbase.

Yea i remember someone asked her during her YouTube random live if she could go to Hokkaido and she said it will take a lot of shipping to get over there and there have been a lot of other matters that needed to be taken into consideration.

And effectively her Hokkaido fans have kinda been excluded every year for the past..idk 20 years. So IT IS a big deal for them and for many who couldnt actually travel out far to watch her before.

(of coz I also wished she announced an Asia tour or something XD but i guess its never gonna happen anymore if its not gonna be THIS tour)

Yes, it's not trivial, it's not "another tour". Here in Brazil we had a singer called Marília Mendonça who did something similar. Her project was doing a show in every capital of our states (26 + federal district) and it was so much difficult in her case because her shows were in public venues for free. It cost A LOT touring all over a country like Brazil, with continental dimensions, but it's also difficult to touring Japan because there's no way to reach every prefecture so easy with all her equipment and stuff.

So, yes, it will probably be "the first and the last" time she will do something like that.
