First Saitama concert is over.
http://imageshack.com/a/img903/139/XrcLJm.png Short video of WON|T BE LONG today: https://www.instagram.com/p/-6LjSwPicA/ Short video of the MC today: https://www.instagram.com/p/-6IqYHlVs3/ Kuu sang a bit of love across the ocean in the MC today. Audience sang Kimi Omoi before Encore as a surprise for Kuu (in Osaka it was WALK OF MY LIFE). Btw. the middle stage is also in Saitama. http://imageshack.com/a/img910/3527/A0aWMi.png http://imageshack.com/a/img907/5945/UnsrwH.png There's one happy little foreign fan, who went today, who got arena seats, 2nd row right next and beforen the stage! Wooow! *-* The two times I went, I always got 2nd level seats through FC. Well, first time it was 1st row 2nd level, which is right next to the arena seats, which was awesome. But getting arena seats is really hard with Kuu. Lee^chan is going for about the 100th time watching Kuu live tomorrow and she sadly never got arena seats. It's something I still want to experience. :laugh |

^ That looks gorgeous! It's like JLo's performance at American Idol, but with a good song and a good singer. And Carrie Underwood at Grammy 2013.
Today's show was the same selist. |
We'll most likely get news articles with official info and pics tomorrow after the final.
Some more general pics: http://imageshack.com/a/img908/2535/Shlr6L.jpg http://imageshack.com/a/img633/8761/85Fccg.jpg And here's a chinese track by track review of the concert from Baidu, only first part though: Spoiler:
What I got with google translation and knowing Kanjis from Japanese: -Opening and interlude movies are based on concert preparations combined with interviews. - Act 1 is done in a retro style -NO ME WITHOUT YOU is performed standing above the curtains and LED in a long white dress as opening song. -SHOW ME YOUR HOLLA is done in a broadway retro style, curtain rises. - WON't BE LONG is an audience interaction song (like you can see in the short video from today) -LOADED and Cupcake are dance performances -TOUCH DOWN has a crutch dance?? -the big white dress with LED projections on the skirt (pic from today above) is for you performance. - ON AND ON is the song with the big crystal chandelier and the red dress - 2nd part of the show is a lot of dancing. Did I get it right? If somebody wants to translate properly, feel free to do so and correct me.^^ |
I think TOUCH DOWN is like a cane dance, similar to JLo's Get Right.
Curious to see if BAMBI and TOUCH DOWN are remixes, 'cause the original mixes might sound a little out of place. |

wow I'm excited for the live now, lol. that was nice from her fans to sing Kimi Omoi for her. I know they're pachinko exclusive songs but would be amazing if kuu one day could perform those 3 songs :(
Thank you for all the info and pictures Talking abour fever legend live, anybody has So fever, Kimi Omoi and Never give it up in mp3 format? would you be kind to share them with me, thank you :D |
The chinese fan from Baidu just posted his second part of track by track review of the concert:
Spoiler:
Again google translate and Kanji reading: - the medley has heavy dancing - TABOO has a new kind of performance, something with electric skates or something similar for the male dancers and LED bars for the females - HURRICANE is performed at the second small middle stage - UNIVERSE and Megumi no Hito are the usual dance performance - Poppin' love cocktail is the towel dance perf - she rides the car for TAKE BACK~Birthday Eve~With your smile to the second smal middle stage and performs BRING IT ON ithere before riding the car back to the main stage (while singing IN THE AIR~Someday~Lady Go!). - walk at the end is the 10th anniversary version, walk ~to the future~ (and it ends with a moon being shown on the screen it seems) -the shows ends with the curtain falling half down - an old coin operated record player (a jukebox?) shows up and NO ME WITHOU YOU is played in music box mode. At the same time , words of gratitude are shown on the screens at the side. So the show ends like it has started. - btw. the chinese fan has three highlight performances - SHOW ME YOUR HOLLA, TOUCH DOWN and TABOO. Again if somebody fluently in Chinese wants to translate properly, please go ahead and correct me! |
My translation from what Marika posted . For me I will just overwrite what the fan wrote in Mandarin , it's upfront not 100% correct and let alone I'm down with sinus so x_x
Some parts I'm not quite sure so I will just leave them out . What I did was that all the Mandarin words , I put them on Google Translate and I listen to the audio when Google Translate read them out . I also read the words at the same time too In addition , traditional Mandarin words are not my friend -_- Anyway ... Part 1 Spoiler:
I will do Part 2 later on when I wake up as it's a lot more longer And on that note , 15th anniversary to Kuu ! |

I'm just really happy for her anniversary
https://45.media.tumblr.com/52efffad...s7p4o1_500.gif Congratulations to her and all her staff :heart |
The electronic skates in TABOO that the fan mentioned, Kuu rode on one of those hoverboards that have suddenly become popular. She fell off it twice, but she did it so cutely that it didn't even matter :luv2

Thank you so much, Karen! *-*
Seriously, this concert sounds amazing! ♥ Seems like really much effort was put in it. Can't wait to watch the broadcast in February. Still so far away though. Hopefully we're getting a DVD not long after. Lee^chan is doing a review from today when she's coming back. Let's see, if they change something for the final and actual anniversary today! |
You're welcome Marika , the Chinese fan was quite detailed on what he/she wrote
And you're right , this last set of concerts to mark Kuu's 15th anniversary sounds good and it feels as though a considerable amount of effort went into making them Hopefully Kuu will say something on her plans for 2016 tonight during the MC segment |
wow sounds amazing cant wait to watch it nex year:luv2
|
Reading japanese posts on Instagram - seems the concert had some troubles in between, so they started a new just about an hour ago!
