Her vocals are so on point in (miss)understood. And I really loved the whole Return Road-WARNING-(miss) section.

EDIT: hope they include Life in some future Blu-ray/DVD release of this.

Is it just me or is that a whole re-recorded vocal version of Sky high in the credits? lol

Also we know who her voice trainer is!

The concert is REALLY good! There are a ton of highlights like 23rd Monster, Return Road, (m)u, Haru Yo, Koi and Voyage. Haven't seen it all yet but it's a great show.
My only complaint is that the music kind of overpowered Ayu in the first section.

The vocals are the exact same as in the studio version.

I kept myself off the forum so the setlist would be a surprise. It was a really good show! Some of the songs were tired from overuse but Return Road and (miss)understood were such a nice surprise! I loved the gothic arrangement of voyage. I checked the setlist on TA website after the stream and of course they cut Life :p but overall it was a good show and July 1st was a nice bonus.

The show was incredible! Powerful, epic, emotional. I felt so much love coming from the screen and I was totally invested energy-wise. I feel amazing after watching it, thank you ayu <3

I’ve only seen the first couple of performances this morning, however gotta say Return Road got me both sad and spooked. Loved the vocals, such a strong performance.

Overall it was a great show IMO, I don't regret buying an online ticket.
Voice sure wasn't steady here and there, not her best, not her worst...
But the tracklist was solid AND THE GIRL WAS GLOWING.

I felt bad to record, but since she’s cut the song. Might as well
Share it. The show shown is first show instead of the last show I went tho.

Is it OK to ask you to share the entire recording?

The very first show or the first one on the 27th? Nevertheless, a good decision.

P.S. Thank you for sharing!

I only got to watch up until (miss)understood but I'm really enjoying the concert so far!

I thought 23rd Monster was a bit weak vocally but I liked the rest, WatQ is so much deeper with a choir, the acting/staging on Return Road was great, and this is probably the most fun I had on a WARNING performance since the original Cirque de Minuit one!

Can't wait to watch the rest!
