Eh. The tour has a few breaks - chances are they'll get updated when Ayu finally has the time to design what she really wants to do costume wise. She had very little time preperation wise due to the recent release of NEXT LEVEL, its not surprising she recycled costumes. She done it before on atleast two occasions.

Btw, I quite like the purple jacket and wig. That was my favourite costume (after MW) from PCDL. I just dont like those pants, and she's using them for about half the concert it seems!

Some people here act like the news of the flying chair is something new, i saw it on the first or second pic of the chair o.0

Well, I think better about the concert now that I read some reviews, light show and videos seem to be superb and LOVE 'n' HATE and identity are not in the PCDL-copy outfit? Great^^ My two favourite songs of NEXT LEVEL get good outfits then^^

I'm glad she isn't doing Surreal actually even though it is one of my favorites. Her last few performances of it have sounded very off.

I watched all of koda's previous tours and will watch trick when it comes out on dvd. My point was I always prefered ayu's tour coz she always had great outfits (huge dresses, etc), her stages were grand...just no other female artists came close to ayu when it comes to that imo. This tour ayu really stepped back. Hearing koda's 10m dress just reminds me of how much I missed ayu's huge dresses that she no longer wears in tours...seeing another artist wear big dresses is not the same...coz she is not ayu.

^ She killed SURREAL with all the performances, no SURREAL means more place for other songs

hmm, not fond of the wig. but the costumes look good, even if they aren't so original-- it looks like we have some PCDL recycles.

Thanks for sharing! Sure this is a really enduring tour - expecting over 40 performances combined between this tour and a-nation '09...

I remember when a lot of people wanted her concerts to be toned down and for her to focus more on her vocal performance... funny that it's what happened and everyone complains again lol.

but like people have said it seems like she is toning it down for this tour and i like it. not everything has to be all extravagant. plus, imo, when things are too extravagant her vocals suffer greatly.

QFT. I know right. Oh well... I'm liking the simplicity so far, and even though this tour doesn't have the so-called "grand" dresses... it has a lot of cool light-works!

@teddbear55: She performed HANABI ~episode II~ in a-nation '03 (or was it '04)... just for that one event.

really? wth?

her vocals aren't going to be that great regardless.

I want it to look cool

this one doesn't. oh well.

I actually feel like kuu's tour has the potential to blow ayus out of the water...but knowing kuu and her people, they'll screw it up lol

Hopefully it'll turn out better than you think

And Kuu's concerts always have better gimmicks than Ayu's concerts in my opinion but I never find hers as interesting to be honest. I dunno... Ayu has this spirit when she sings live most of the time. Kuu's getting there, but it's just not as profound to me... They're both great performers though <3

Well, if it's not one thing, it's another with many fans, it seems.
