Seems Ayu was getting asked about it a lot on her site and stuff and she has officially said there's no graduations happening because of this!

So happy but Japanese fans really must have been hammering her with questions, haha.

For what I got (please correct me if I'm wrong) no one is really leaving the band, the band recorded the music for chapter 2 already, so it won't be live but it won't the same studio tracks neither.

Haha japanese fans did a good job this time!

Love that Ayu posted on her Insta and another pic of her and Yochan on Twitter. Sooo happy that Yochan IS NOT leaving the troupe . Yokatta!

Ayu said hes always be her left hand :love

Aderianu 3rd September 2017 09:56 AM

Yeah!! I'm so happy

With pre recorded tracks ayu will not be able to change set list much.

truehappiness 3rd September 2017 10:05 AM

It's possible she planned ahead for that kind of thing.

Aga-chan 3rd September 2017 05:14 PM

I'm glad that Yocchan isn't leaving. ;_;
If he left I'd think there'd be a proper graduation and not only a comment on his blog saying "I've stopped". lol That part DID seem weird. I'd think they'd give the fans a proper way to say good-bye. I'd imagine some people thought "If I'd known this was the last time Yocchan performed, I would've gone to a-nation."

I've been wishing that Ayu did more concerts like Power of Music, with more focus on singing and the musicians... but she's going in the opposite direction. :(

I feel the concerts have become more and more choreographed throughout the years to the point where even her emotions feel choreoprahed. She shines the most when it's only her and the band. Heartplace from the TA 2015 tour was pretty amazing to watch. She was so into it.
I also like MIJ, because it felt like a good mix between emotions and choreography. Mad World shows how you can express something meaningful through simple means, you don't need fancy costumes and props.
I understand her wish to show the audience a dream world, but I prefer it when she lets the dancers dance, because that's what they're for, and when she herself concentrates on singing.

I think Ayu's concerts startong from 2008 were all choreographed including her emotions. Even when watching MIJ Ive been wondering did she really cry?? Maybe the real tears were during My all other than that shes forcing it (?), well she is really good at it now :P

Timmy is a half naked prop

truehappiness 5th September 2017 02:43 AM

Yeah, I miss when the performances were mainly just her and the band.

melissalove 5th September 2017 03:16 AM

Wow really?? Timmy can be there but yochan gets excluded?? This is weird

a❤martian 5th September 2017 05:32 AM

She can do whatever she wants in her live shows, I don't care. Just as long as she drops Timmy.

EndOfTheWorld 5th September 2017 05:38 AM

I used to love the dancers and felt impressed by what they would do. But the last 5 years give or take has become a bit much. Almost like Ayu shares her concert with them. And Timmy is always there half naked. He is in quite good shape but it is just stupid to me. The tears do feel fake these days too.:shrug
Ayu shines when the band is more prominent.:yes

yes please. Or the least she can do is put some nice clothes on that guy like at PoM Tour.

Chibi-Chan 5th September 2017 07:36 AM

I like Timmy, he seems like a nice guy, but I honestly don't wanna see his genitals in tight panties ever again.

melissalove 5th September 2017 09:36 AM

I love Timmy too, but isn't he also part of the band?? Or am I missing something. Nonetheless I'm sure I'll end up loving the overall show, band or not.
