Ditto

Well I think they should be fair. I mean if Kuu or hitomi or whoever is only gonna have like 2 songs on the DVD then Ayu should only have 2 songs on the DVD.

Kuu's perfs last year were really good, I love how she went from cutesy Lick Me to ripping off her dress for ECSTASY. I wanted to see the Hashire + other perfs but they cut them out :(

she looks gorgeous!

i think they'll definately have Lollipop for the DVD this year. i wonder if they'll include the single medley? i hope for UNIVERSE :heart

EDIT: is that tracklist confirmed as yesterday's? or is it the week before's? i was hoping she'd add Suki de like ayu included crossroads :\

Yes I agree. I was so upset with the a-nation '09 DVD. Ayu got all 8 and everyone else had one. I totally LOVE Ayu, but a-nation is a music festival concert for a bunch of different artists to perform. Not an Ayu concert with a few special guests if you know what i mean. The only other thing I didn't like was a couple extra stuff on there was only clips of partial performances by other singers. Didn't even show the one full song being done.

Oh, and as for the DVD, I really think one of them will be a Cutie Honey performance. They seem to love that song to death over there.

I agree, espicially about her dancers. Her dancers, while excellent at dancing, have a certain "look" about them. There is a word that comes to mind that I'm not sure is appropriate to use, lol.

Well, Avex certainly doesn't agree, so theres no need to put other artists down.

I love the tracklist, it's great of her having madles so often, wish we could see more than just one or two songs this year.

Also, she looks so gorgeous, my gosh, why can't Ayu look as good anymore? :(

Oooh oke, thank you for telling me!! :)

I forgot to comment on the tracklisting, I don't really care for single medleys but I want Lollipop and GTBR on the dvd if we only get two perfs! Maybe AVEX will stop being retarded and will include more of Kuu on there this year :love

There's no need to get defensive, it's a matter of opinion. He didn't really put Ayu down as much as just really praised kuu, lol.

I was really sad when I found out about that.

Yeah I think ayu having all her songs on there is pretty ridiculous. Besides it seeming unfair, her a-nation performances have awful flow to them and just DRAAAG on! For some reason, she insists on having costume changes, which results in like a 10 minute interlude between "segments." It wouldn't be as bad if she just stuck to 1 costume like everyone else.

Speaking of which, wasn't it mentioned some time ago she was gonna do a 10th anniversary concert in like october? I remember them saying something about that like back in March.

While I am a HUGE fan of both Ayu and Kumi. They're pretty close to equal on my LOVE FAN meter. I must agree about the costume changes. I think it's fine for her own tours just like any other artist, but if everyone else at a-nation only wears one outfit than so should she.

If I'm not mistaken in '06 Ayu only had two or three costume changes and people got mad about that as well so I guess it's all lose lose.

As for Kuu, I hope they have her entire performance on the DVD since it's her 10th Anniversary. It would cool to see the full opening of a-nation as well as the full ending.

Yeah, Ayu's costume changes are pointless in an a-nation setting.

Not being defensive, but since we havent seen a full Kumi a-nation performance to compare, I dont see the point of assuming who would be better. Only the people who saw the whole show would be able to comment more objectively (even if that was possible).

I don't think it's a matter of "who is better." Kuu usually performs in the day time and has limited amount of time and props etc. But Ayu is the grand finale and gets at least a half hour, props, a million different costumes, a friggen float that travels around the stadium and fireworks.... xD;;;; It's unfair to say who would put on the better show to be honest unless Kumi is given a finale. Some may even argue that Kumi is still better without all that stuff so... who knows.

I'm actually wondering why Kuu performed in the afternoon, i mean earlier than she did before..
did she have concerts or other jobs coming up?
she usually lined up as the 4th last performer..or 5th...

I think she chose to open this year, for whatever reason... just like Namie wanted to open when she attended a-nation in 2008. Maybe it's so she can leave after she performs and doesn't have to stick around for everyone else!

I don't think they should cut any performances.

But Ayu is given a HUGE chunk of time compared to other artists...and it is kind of annoying...

I don't think they should have just one artist doing the finale anyway. Maybe thats why they came up with a theme song with everyone? idk...but avex needs to stop skimping when it comes to other artists.

What I wanna know is how come Namie's entire performance was cut from the DVD!?

btw does anyone know what songs she sang?

Well before Ayu would just be the last performer and then they would have an all cast ending ('02 & '03). But eventually Ayu just ended up becoming the closer.

I think they should rotate who gets to close the show. Give everyone a fair chance, I mean cuz Ai Otsuka can get a crowd going too lol.

a-nation obviously stands for ayu-nation. Everyone knows that.
