"How about these kind of things?" Ayu and performers were thinking about performance while discussing each other's opinions.
Performers trying to show an example, saying "It hurts!" "This is too hard"

After seeing her aerial performances in her tour / CDL over and over again

Ayu's shoulder seem abit buff.

[EndOfTheWorld]

If this was Ayu's last Countdown, I think they would use that as a major advertising asset. They would probably put extra attention on the fact that it is the last one ever to create a lot of hype, attention, and media.
I'm sad that it is most likely the last one at Yoyogi but I am also looking forward to where she will do them in the future. Maybe it will be a fun change.

そして2度目となる今回は、“ライブ本編全曲”で写真撮影（開演前・アンコール実施時の公演中・終演後は除 く）が可能になった。

^ if I understand it right, it will be allowed to take photos during the whole show, not only some part like at AT2016

That's correct. Taking photos before the show, during encore and after the show is prohibited though.

[Aderianu]

one more photo from rehearsal

[pedronekoi]

She's looking like a teenager with the choker and that hair. <3 Don't know why tho lol

I really think this is going to be the last CDL. They'll probably announce it next year tho...

[dreamalley]

Too bad she's still obsessed with her Cirque du Soleil ideas. I wish there were less acrobatics in her shows.

[Chris85]

Knowing how hardworking Ayu is, i really doubt it's the last one. In a worst case scenario she'll just resume when Yoyogi reopens.

[Refix]

I enjoy watching her doing aerial stunt like that. First time I saw it in GAME CDM it blows my mind, a part when she turned around in the air was kinda frightening. But it was cool af, so I don't mind she doing it again.
Seems like this one is for GAME too.

Could you imagine Ayumi doing this?

I can see ayu doing something like this but not in an "agressive" way like pink, but in a more fairytale style, XD.

Imagine something similar with endless sorrow, sakura, forgiveness... that would be amazing and beautiful!

[Aderianu]

respect to Pink for not lip syncing this song
I think this performance is kinda cool and maybe interesting to see... but it's not beautiful. I can't imagine ayu doing that. Not because I think she can't, but because it doesn't fit her

[aliceshields]

^ Me too, respect her singing live *thumb up*

[kaled kalil]

Well, it's fun and all until something like this happens:



I'm not a huge fan of the aerial stunts at all, but as long as they want to bring different things, I think it's valid. And I know a lot of people out there likes, so whatever.

[Ryusei]

I was expecting to see the aerial comments lol She did it TWICE FFS would you learn to do all that stuff and then only do it twice and never use it in a show again? I don't think so, sometimes this fanbase is so dam unappreciative of her hard work

Yeap!

I also like that unlike Pink, for example, Ayu aerial performances made sense in the narrative of her performances. It's not just "look! I can do this hard thing!"

PREACH!! I'm gonna say it again... when she does aerial stuff and you're in the audience, it's pretty damn spectacular. You can see she works her arse off just to bring an entertaining and amazing show.
