Thoughts on ASIA TOUR 2007 ~Tour of Secret~ DVD

[truehappiness]

Just as a side note:
Some GORGEOUS photos of AT07~




Packaging is definitely the grandest it's been in AGES.

And some running times for comparison:
According to Amazon, the total running time for the show is 215 minutes with the documentary. This is just over 3 and a half hours.

Breakdown of concert DVDs and their running times:
AT02: 116 minutes
AT03-04: 120 minutes
AT05: 214/215 minutes
AT06: 218 minutes
AT07: 215 minutes

I chose EMS and I live in New York, so maybe that's why? lol.



For JEWEL, it's only a small part of the end and it's hidden in the documentary. The documentary is in parts though, but other than that, it's not more specific than that.

For Memorial address, it's also in a documetary (Documentary-7), but it doesn't take long to get to it. And it's most of it, just not the end part.

For both M.a. and JEWEL though, it's in her encore clothes, not part of the main performances.

And by the way, her performance of the song Secret: awesome. The vocals were great.

I loved the dancing in 'appears'... Spanish dances for the win! I could talk more, but I think I'd talk all day lol.

Wha..What.. Not the entire perfs? What the !@#$. Why on EARTH did they do that?

Okay I am SO maybe not going to buy this DVD. >_<;;;;;;

What the fffff... Not the end of Memorial Address.. Only 1/3rd of JEWEL.. Damm. -_-

I'm gonna watch the ripped concert and see if I like JEWEL enough to buy the DVD. =/

TrueHappiness, maybe you can say if you see enough of JEWEL to be good?

Not to be a downer but You can't choose to watch the things separately.

If you "Play All" you will have to skip the documentary when it comes up. If not you will have to select from the list.

[ayumisrael]

So I think that when ayu wrote that on her blog she reffered to that, that we'll choose every performance from the list and then every documentary...

[Suteisi]

Thanks for the picture truehappiness!!
It definitely looks great +_+ 'Cant wait to get it! X3

I choosed Registered Air Mail(2nd best shipping, after EMS) and its mentionned that it'll arrived between 4 to 12 days. Though I was notified it shipped not too long ago(I receive the e-mail yesterday).

Actually, you CAN choose to watch them separately from the menu ... e.g. choose Documentary-8 etc. etc. or the kiss o'kill performance.

You just can't watch all the documentaries at once or all the performances at once without the others.

[TITANIC]

how many pages of the booklet???

That's what I said by "Choosing them separately" But to me it doesn't matter since I like watching it all.

[alternarist]

its all a lie that most people assured that we can watch the perfs and documentary separately. i am disappointed.

ayu herself lied. but oh well. gonna wait for my dvd to arrive.

We CAN watch them separately

They're not attached to each other in one continuous string where you can only start at the beginning and fast forward to whichever.

From the menu you can choose which performances or documentaries you want to watch. That IS being able to watch them separately. You don't have to sit through each time if you just want to see one thing.

You just have to select the ones you want to see or skip the documentaries/perfs when they come up.

What you can't do is watch the perfs or docs ONLY without having to skip something.

I know you know what i mean right? i meant to be able to watch the concert in full without having to click on whatever. Every DVD has been able to play the concert in full and also watch it as a single song.

So for you to highlight the point that we can select which performances to watch, may i know what is ur point seriously? Because every DVD can do that.

[freedreamer]

O ok...i shud have preordered it...but o well...
I WOULDNT UNDERSTAND WITHOUT TRANSLATIONS!!!

*patience*

it's still fun to watch, haha.

Spoiler:

this one part was so sad when the dancers spent a lot of time working on how to do the rope climbing/dance thing, but changed it to the hoops that we saw at the end of the Secret performance... they looked sad. and ayu was crying, but i wish i could've understood what the narrator was saying at that part, because i don't know if it was in relation to that

[milky_way]

I just got mine and I thought the DVD was supposed to have footage of other songs that were performed like JEWEL. Or is that part of the documentary? Or was it never even confirmed?

[ayumisrael]

ayu meant that you can choose them and watch them seprerately but you can only to select which thing to watch and not like the whole live or docu together, she just avice to watch the lives first and then the docus, we just understood what we wanted to I guess

There are JEWEL, Memorial address and momentum inside of the docus but not the whole perfromances.
