[Koda Kumi] The 193rd Thread - Fanclub Live Tour ～AND～

[Corvina]

Let's Party Vol.1 and 2 both had lightsticks.
The one for Vol.1 was just a normal stick though.
I don't know if YesAsia had the goods for her FC lives before, but all of them are available through the normal mu-mo shop and you don't have to be in the FC to buy from it.
So no reason for YesAsia not to get them actually.

Judging by this picture it seems that she's doing Hot Stuff for this tour! https://www.instagram.com/p/BhZGiNwlt07/

And from her stories it looks like IS THIS TRAP? was also rehearsed omggg ToT

[Corvina]

She has a lot of muscle pain today and is jokingly asking, if it is okay if the FC tour is MC only.
And she answers her own question with the sentence, that it won't be an AND tour anymore then.

Looks like they rehearsed new songs yesterday and old ones today.
But Idk if this is IS THIS TRAP?. Cause her dancers would look and point to the audience then.
The TAKE BACK remix has a similar move, hasn't it?
With the dancers covering her body with their hands.

[Gustavopc]

Oh, indeed, they take a look around the audience
I'd love to see TAKE BACK there as well ahahaha

I'm hoping for Hot Stuff, personally. Although, this tour could be MC only and it would still be pretty funny. Kuu in and of herself is entertaining.

Goods look great, I would like the sweater, slides, bag and bracelets. But, I think the box is a toolbox, not a lunchbox...

lol no, it's a bento lunchbox

[Diva_br]

^maybe can we call it "multi use box" ??? Like, obviously is a lunchbox but perhaps they want to show us that can we use it in anyway we want?

[maze]

The AND tour logo looks uninspired tbh but I am living for that white sweater and the black cap, both would make a great coordinate!

This zippo tho lol.. I have never seen this one, I love it

[Corvina]

AND 6th week sales:
#295 - 191
Total: 18,575

Driving Hit's 8 2nd week sales:
#182 - 333
Total: 2,867

Somebody on Baidu shared the yearly Oricon ranking Top 50 for albums so far and #50 sold 27k.
So Kuu is probably in the Top 100 right now with those sales for AND.
W FACE ~outside~ last year was album #169 in the full year ranking for 2017, W FACE ~inside~ #173.
AND will probably be in the Top 250 of the year, whatever will happen else.

More rehearsal photos from yesterday:

Japan is definitely beginning to feel the effects of the streaming era. In the U.S. there are big albums only selling 5k in pure sells after the first month. SPS (sales plus streaming) has completely changed the chart dynamics.

Yeah, for now the Japanese music market is still in process of change.
As of last year physical sales were about 70% of the market, about 22% digit sales and the rest concert rights.
Streaming isn't big enough yet and stagnating in numbers. We will see how it's going to change in the next years.

[Sky High]

Wow, I love those zippo lighters.

I would say that is more accurate, as I don't see why they would show it with tools in it...

[Corvina]

Kuu finished rehearsals today.
4 days of intensive training.

[chocopockymaster]

omfg the print on that coat is to die for

[thinkingoutloud89]

^Is that the Namie x H&M collection? XD

[hud]

^ I thought about it too lol. it looks similar to that picture indeed. wonder if they sent something from the collection to her early.

it's a beautiful print!

[thinkingoutloud89]

^hm the print is different at least from what we saw so far...but this type of piece seems to bin hot right now

[Corvina]

Rofl, it's from ZARA, Kuu tagged it in her post.
It's a favourite for her and she bought it last year.
