But not everybody wants to be touch by Ayu, Prince Henry, Brad Pitt or whoever. So if you are implying that me saying no to Ayu touching me would make me "too sensitive" you are absolutely wrong but hopefully I am misunderstanding you but let's just leave the subject here.
I see. Everyone has their personal comfort line. Suddenly touching will get a shock first. Then when u see the face of the toucher wahoo. maybe u can take it haha.

@Sandy
I don't think you're too sensitive.
People are different and not everybody likes being touched.

And I don't get why choosing a foreigner would be bad.
For Kuu they do choose foreigners as well, I know two who had that luck.

And Idk, but Ayu seems to turn slowly into Kuu performance-wise, haha.
Don't slap me, but all those things she's doing now (tissue dancing herself, choosing fans on stage, more upbeat and energy driven performances, and even the dollar notes), are done by her as well.
Kuu didn't invent any of those, but doing that in combination is part of her trademark, so I just noticed.

I might be too sensitive here but this just doesn't seem okay to me, I mean do they know what they're getting into by going to the stage? And if Ayu or anyone suddenly jumps on you and goes down to your croch I can understand it being very difficult to say no or push her away. But if my idol would want me on stage and then pull that without my permission/knowing I'd be furious. I'd like to hear everybody else's opinions, what do you think?
Yeah, I'm not a fan of these sorts of routines at concerts. I find it a little cringey. It is fun to have some sort of fan interaction but I hope it doesn't become a mainstay of her concerts.

It also seems to be in co-relation with a shrinking fan base and smaller budgets sadly. I was actually hoping she would do something with the stage (along the lines of what Ku was doing jusy before her prime, I remember the first best things tour was also done in halls, but the stage was great), but this just seems to be a TA tour with an album title. I also wonder if the set list will change overtime as there’s a lot of dates.

Someone told me Timmy picked the same guy twice for two different dates, which makes me think there’s a possibility of favoritism happening... at least for the boys being chosen at certain dates. I know Timmy invites a lot of his male friends.

Similarly when they chose a famous boxer instead of a “normal” fan.

Well, Kuu always did those things, no matter if hall or arena or even dome (the dollar notes e.g. she used at Fantasia in a dome in 2010, or tissue dancing she does at all venues). Most of her stage set ups in recent years in halls were also pretty nice (all those moving screens this year are cool and probably really expensive). Her tranisiton is probably not so much of a problem tho, cause 1. her tours in bigger venues probably never had that big of a budget (in comparison to Ayu e.g) to begij with and 2. she never stopped doing smaller venues even at her peak cause she prefers those personally.
But with Ayu it seems to be. Though it also might just be in relation to her deafness getting worse and the amount of tours.
I somehow get the feeling she's more about enjoying being on stage and having fun with her fans than putting on a show. The show just comes second. Which may also be why she's touring so damn often nowadays.
Though she could vary the stuff a bit at least.
Anyway the most important thing is she and the fans going are enjoying the lives.
I'd just like to hear from her what she's thinking, but maybe that's too painful for her at the moment?
Argh, I hate that we don't know things for certain.
But it is as it is.

Yeah, she's doing these live-streaming-things, selfie video on stage, taking fans up during concerts so she does want to interact with her fans. But I'd like something deeper, a real discussion, not something that's part of a show. I do worry about her and I do believe that if her hearing wouldn't be where it is right now we would not be seeing all this touring. It'd be nice to hear from her, though, since all we can do is speculate and wonder. Oh, and I totally get those Kuu vibes from her current tour as well

That comment was light compared to everything Timmy does on stage.

^It really wasn't. People act like he's some corrupt deviant poisoning the whole ensemble. Ayu does sexual dances and dresses provocatively more than Timmy does, have people not watched the 1LOVE performance from CdM? Two words: heart farts.

I just came back from the concert!
Overall I really enjoyed myself!

Just gonna throw some random notes out here:

Setlist is the same as what has been posted. If I remember correctly its FTL / MGR

Ayu sounded great - she was shouting during some parts but pretty on key for most parts. I would say there is also A LOT LESS wailing around and less exaggerated crying. I am thinking this probably came with the change in choreographer...?

Ayu also looked great. I am pretty sure she lost quite a bit of weight. The chubbiness around her face / jawline seems to be have subsided and she looked really happy. I would say the picture that she posted on instagram with the gucci jacket is not OVERLY edited. She actually looked pretty young in that set-up!

The opening song was W, she came out in a car (prop) and sang most parts in the car and halfway through she and the female dancers started "car-washing". towards the end of the song she poured what looked like water on herself (so she was pretty wet already at the first song!)

Other memorable things.. YOU was great, she got pretty emotional there.
It was cool to see the demographics of the fan base - there were some pretty young fans but at the same time you see ladies / men in their 30s/ 40s with their kids. They probably listened to her while they were growing up!

Costumes wise, nothing to shout about. 1 big white dress for TWIA, and the gown part was taken off for the next song.

Overall, loved the entire show!

Edit:
- Princess was not there, and the other female vocal singer must have been on stage only half the time! Timmy was on stage about 70% of the time
- The combination of dancers now is just nice - i noticed fewer dancers (I guess without the acrobats team) and also they were less in the way. also, only aeternal (final chorus) had a male dancer (the new one) flailing around~~ All other slower songs were just Ayu alone!
