I am so happy with this countdown.
Everything seems like it was done very well and Ayu had fans in mind. The dvd/bluray can not release fast enough. I hope avex is quick to release it. |

Same here! Funny though when one dancer came too late during evolution, hehe! The concert seemed to have "everything"! I haven't seen all yet but it probably is going to be one of my favourite CDLs/concerts ever. Since the vocals were good with two exceptions which were like ok- to bad/meh-ish I am quite sure we won't get a robotic sounding concert but one we can really enjoy!

I'll be crushed if it comes out with robotic vocals.
I would rather hear Ayu sing poorly than listen to that nonsense. It looks like she did okay vocally so maybe we are safe. |

Yep! I think it's quite safe to say this CDL's vocals are good (enough at least) that we won't get a robotic voice! Also, I hope that the cover will be a pic from the Kanariya performance! For example Ayu flying in the air with the men holding her, her sitting in the air with the crown on her head etc.. And of course I'm praying that they won't ruin it with e.g. a bad looking/placed font...

Her performances of "M" and "No Way to Say" were really simple. No dancers, just her singing. And those were the songs where her voice sounded best. It seems she paid attention to what the fans wanted to see. I just hope in the DVD they show more close ups of her.
I thought the same thing too. |

Indeed it's an app with which you can watch Japanese TV. I didn't know about it myself until a friend told me and I missed most of the CDL myself, but at least I have seen a bit I think I also made We Wish recording that is still on my phone |

After watching the whole thing I see a real improvement in every aspect. Many refreshed arrangements of songs (which will make me play it often in the background), the show simply flows, visually it's superb, Ayu is in great shape. Vocally she has learned that shouting needs to be reduced. For me just Last Angel wasn't good and in my opinion she butchered Because of you to limits ^_^ - like she forgot to sing totally. You can hear very well that when she sings with her soft voice - there's a technique but when she pushes - it turns into screaming, Never Ever is a good example with both elements. Also when she rested her voice, the medley of encore was sung so well, I was surprised to listen to it so pleasantly in the video with no editing (just humming 7/4 wasn't great, but just this one). Also I think it's the first time music doesn't sound like it's recorded from some speaker in the arena but mixed into the stream which is great! I totally can't wait for this live to be released with proper camera work and slight touches here and there.

I think Kanariya will sound better with its proper audio, tv lives are much different to the dvd versions regardless of the audio fixes, its just the technology . Like being there in person would hear it way better then wowow versions and so on. Sort of on the same line as recording with your phone. Might get good video, but the audio wont sound good. Same thing with tv lives and loud noises.
I would love a best album made with studio versions of these songs that have new arrangements, with Kanariya, green, immature and so on. She could even throw on ladies night ~another night~ But i think she is always trying to improve. With her interview with Gackt, she commented on how impressed she was with his projection of his voice, I think that came from her own abilities, of what she is trying to train for, and You are the only one's last verse really shows her training with her projection of her voice

Maybe it's because I'm more used to hearing music from western countries, where "singers" (and I use that term loosely) use auto-tune all the time and *intentionally* make themselves sound robotic (they must be under the mistaken impression it's a neat effect--it's not). I'm not hearing that on Ayu's concert DVDs. Perhaps Japanese sound engineers have some better techniques for "fixing" vocals that I'm not used to, so I can't really tell what to look for, and therefore I can't spot? If that's the case, then I hope I *never* get to spot it as it really seems to drive some people here up the wall... :-) |

I think she is not in fit condition..she strugle a lot until M. Her voice crack a lot, maybe her bronchitis and pneumonia not 100% cured, but yet she still push her vocal to sing.
but then she totally nailed the ballad section, M and No Way To Say is really good... she not shouting that much anymore as well, I really love her current vocal... There are plenty of rooms for improvement for her AT2017. I love the large stage and large screen.. I think she finally move on from Circus theme, less performers and more dancers... Overall this CDL is satisfying...
