I watch the digest, and my eyebrows keep shooting up.
And there's a lot going on in the stage, I can't focusing on Ayu while all the dancer jumping around.

^ That arena always seemed to me more countdown-ish rather than tour ;p

Did you watch unedited version? She sounded awful.

She re-uses the boots from her ensemble during the cutesy AT06 segment.

In three months will be the 17th anniversary, so a new album or special releases are coming soon? I hope so.

17th anniversary is not really anything special...Goin by that logic she would celebrate every year with a special release.

PS: not complaining about her voice =)
Listen to first minute of How beautiful you are from AT12 and then from CDL14-15 and you'll know what I hate about her vocals and unfortunately Ayu does it in almost each song nowadays. What's worse, it's not in live shows anymore, she slowly uses it in album recordings as well.

AT 12

CDL 14-15

^ It should be, she consistently cites April 8th 1998 as her debut, as opposed to January 1st 1999 (which would be the only other logical date with the release of her first album imo).

I went to the show on the 29th and 31st. I have to say that on the 29th she didn't sound bad at all. She didn't had real problems with her voice but when I went on the 31st I was kind of shocked lol...
I really think she should not do so many lives and/or use more lipsynch like other artists to rest her throat.

I believe her condition is not fit yet...

She sounds good on TA tour, because the venue is smaller and she didn't need to do many things on stage...so she can focusing all of her stamina to her vocal..

but when she did another big stage production concert again...she did well on the first day but on the third day...her vocal really strained...so painful to watch...I hope she really take a good rest right now..she deserve it..

She didn't sound bad on 30th either.
But I don't think that hoarse voice is shocking, it would be shocking if she was singing totally off key which wasn't the case. Singing for couple of hours isn't long at all. Especially when you have interlude breaks and drink water between songs. What kills her voice is her technique.
It's such a popular stereotype that she sings too much while she just shouts too much and damages her voice. Honestly I felt like she forgot what she learned from her vocal coaches.

I was there on the 31st live. I think she sounded much better live than the tv recording.

There's no point releasing on April 8th this year, it's a Friday (releases are usually on Wednesdays because of Oricon's week). imo A ONE only came out on her anniversary because it happened to be on a Wednesday and she took the opportunity...

I was on the 30th show too and I'd say that her voice on most of the performances that night are good if not, were't really bad. I am surprized now that I watched the digest. o.O Ayu is shouting most of the time on the 31st show. I hope she gets enough rest before this year's activities.

Her voice is just strained, you guys need to calm down it's not the end of the world lol. She needs a well deserved rest.

Honestly tho, I loved this year's CDL. She slayed.
