If that was the case we got the announcement in mid till late December, FC lotteries were in January.
But we don't have any clue yet when the tour will be, might be later in the year.
In the last 2 years we had tours in autumn.

^I like the new designs much better, I'd love to get them all too bad they aren't available through the FC store.

I'm puzzled, why she keeps performing GOLDFINGER 2019 only? It's not even in the top 3 most popular tracks on iTunes Store Japan last time I checked. She must just really love the song herself or maybe hopes to get more attention from the general public.

Is there an updated sales number for re(CORD)'s total sales?

Because the song went #1 on LINE, just like Megumi no Hito.

Just stumbled across this funny tweet.

https://twitter.com/seasae0101/statu...41760056573955

So the kid asked for cola gummis, but this woman understood Koda Kumi (both sounds really similar in Japanese), so she asked the kid if he/she wants to eat Koda Kumi and he/she said yes. :laugh
When she went into the sweets corner to search for cola gummis, she asked if they have Koda Kumi and she indeed got cola gummis! :roflmao
She comments how awesome this was.

(she seems to be quite a popular family blogger?)

I seriously hope Kuu and her team get to see this tweet, cause I can see them making great fun out of it for encores and MC of her tours or could even be used for actual promo, CMs or as a tour good - Kuu and cola flavoured gummis! :laugh

Both part of the "dream collaboration" segment of the show.
According to the tweet FNS made, it's a dream collab, Aoi Shouta wished for.
He's apparently a fan of her.

Haha, he's known for his high-pitched voice for a guy, being called "archangel" - I wonder how this is going to play out.

He's happy:

And looking at his official site, he's using cords and light bulbs for his last releases, just like Kuu... xD



Shouta is so cute x3 and one of my all time favorite seiyuu's so I'll be looking forward to it..

Didn't G2019 got to the #1 'cause of that campaign where they wanted everyone to listen to it for a chance to win a piece of merchandise with their name on it? I'd love for her to perform again or anything else from re(CORD) but at this point, I'm just happy that she's finally performing at MS again even if it's not again.

@kaled kalil I like your DO ME single cover. It fits well with the sound of the song. I'm also using your S/WOL covers in my iTunes library for my custom SUMMER/WINTER OF LOVE Ω playlists which include every single summer vibes track / ballad.

I really like WON'T BE LONG -2019- but I still prefer the original version. It has this awesome old school / nostalgic feel to it.

This is the official logo design they use:

Whatever that means.
A dessert? Far mountains?

Even tho it's just black & white, I love the design of the goods.
Except the shirt.
Would have preferred the picture collage one.

Good thing is with having a penlight we can probably expect her to perform, not only talk!

Gustavopc 3rd December 2019 02:26 PM

The logo looks like those logos they put in front of some cars lol Seems like mountains being reflected on a car in the road

I love the goods! Minimalist and pretty, and I love black clothing sooooo... :P

Corvina 4th December 2019 01:15 PM

Couldn't watch it live this time cause of work.
But Aoi Shouta and Kuu sounded absolutely great singing in a duet, didn't expect that.
He first outsang her in his solo parts, cause Kuu sounded nervous at the start, but her solo parts at the end were great. And they hugged each other, aw!
Great for Kuu anyway that he's such a big fan as he's apparently one of Japan's most popular voice actors.
A lot of his fans are thanking FNS for the collabo and making his dream come true on Twitter (he's a trending topic on Twitter with both his full name and his nickname and Kuu was, too, just not as high!).
Feedback is very positive, "two beautiful voices singing together" and the like.
Ai no Uta re-entered the real-time-ranking for digital charts at #3!
And here's 180° video of both FNS shared through their app:
https://twitter.com/kinotrumpet/stat...01475541168128
Thanks to Kinot!

Hiromi Go and Kuu danced a bit together, cute, cute, cute! :heart
And they also showed LiSA in between singing Goldfinger with them sitting at her place.
LiSA also came visiting Kuu backstage and gave her her last two singles as present, Kuu showed it in her stories.

I think I didn't mention it before, but Kuu said in interviews and on Insta that she personally wrote a mail to Hiromi Go to ask for permission to cover his version.
And when he answered positive she couldn't believe it first, cause apparently he didn't allow a cover up to now.

Damn, Kuu, just make that collaboration album with all those artists happen!! :laugh

lovethatkuu&ayu 4th December 2019 02:25 PM

Social media response is absolutely positive.

Just like her collaboration with Daichi, this went down very well.

Corvina 4th December 2019 02:58 PM

Just saw that Ai no Uta is also at #3 for the real-time-ranking on LINE Music!
Ienai yo is at #33.

that Aoi Shouta very handsome but sounds like ku from the early years! xD

KuuXAyu-fan 5th December 2019 04:27 AM

Idk if its just me but Kuu sounded really good in Ai No Uta this time. She wasn't over stretching the notes like she has in her recent Ai No Uta TV lives. Hope she sounds this good at Music Station.

He's a voice actor & the fact that he can make his voice sound like a female pitch wise , that's not something that can be easily done

It takes years of experience for a voice actor to be able to do female voices
