The PV is stunning! Nice to see her still getting some good PVs on a budget!

Oooh I didn't expect this, that's really good news !!!

Absolutely LOVE the covers!! I've preordered my fc edition already. Plus non-kkapp members are getting an acrylic stand with their copy this time. I'm looking forward to seeing the designs of them. :heart :luv2
Only thing to slightly disappoint me is that the latest Anniversary Event isn't included with the FC edition of the album. Was really hoping to have a physical copy of it.

Great covers, but I don't see the CD only on cdjapan, I don't know why ��

The CD Only wasn't listed on mu-mo yesterday either when I went to place my preorder for the FC edition.

Btw, I have much larger HQ images of the UNICORN covers if anyone is interested. They're 2048x2048.

Ku's Kray! she better give us a new sound!

@ILoveGeniuses: Yes please do.

Guys, pls help. I've been to Japan many times but Kuu never had concerts back while I was there. I have just bought tickets to Japan for July and she has concerts in Chiba (12.07), Ishikawa (15.07) and Kyoto (19.07) while I'm there. I know I have just missed the application / lottery in fan club (I'm not in fan club, but I would consider joining if tickets were stil available). Any idea how can I get a ticket for Chiba and / or Kyoto? I would like to secure it now but I'm afraid my only chance will be to try in Lawsons when I'm there which I'm scared will be too late. Are resellers still a thing? But again, I would like to know I have it before I go there, maybe some app will be selling tickets? Pls help.

Was not expecting an album announcement! Glad we have a solo version of Trust Last! Wish Jump to the Breeze had been included but looking forward to the reveal of the rest of the tracklist!

Here's the covers to UNICORN in HQ. I've uploaded 'em to mediafire in a single zip file.

Unfortunately general sales might be your only option. Depending when they go on sale, you may be able to use a middle man to purchase them before you get to Japan.

Sadly Kuu is really not concerned about foreign fans anymore. The KK App is unavailable outside of Japan (unless you sideload it). The ticket presale this time required membership to both KK App and Koda Gumi, the latter of which is not possible to register for without Japanese information (credit card, phone number, address).

But maybe someone else here knows something that I don't.

There is lottery rounds for both fanclubs and also one for the public (but you need to be registered to the ticket site afaik).
First was the lottery for members of both fanclubs, then for Koda Gumi, her main one, and right now it's for the KK app till February 25th. Having those three rounds isn't new, it's been like that for some years now (I think it started 2017 with the double member round? Back then with Koda Gumi and playroom ofc).
But indeed it's not made for international fans, but sadly that was to be expected with them closing down the international Koda Gumi.

The presale round for the public is March 2nd till March 6th (usually through the Lawson online site, but they haven't said yet).
General sale for the rest of the tickets then starts March 30th.
You can buy tickets from the general sale on the machines in Lawson stores, that might be an option being in Japan as well (as you said).
You find the info of the sale periods here:
https://rhythmzone.net/koda/news/detail.php?id=1114084
They make announcements in the news section on her official site with the start of every round, so best to check the site regularly.
Some dates might not be available if they sell out through either of those rounds.
And if dates don't sell out, they also sold tickets at the venues in the past. But sometimes to a higher price and those seats are always in the back.
Tickets are also digital this time, so you need the Anypass app, which does work internationally.
(every person going with you needs a ticket through the app btw.)

Good luck, I seriously hope you will be able to snatch some tickets!

Thank you, it was bugging me that I was too late for FC tickets, at least I know there wasn't anything I could do anyway. I'm looking at bridge.jpn.com right now, someone recommended it to me as a middleman.

Thank you!!:luv2

hey, does anybody know the translation to the lyrics of "Hey baby" (iamSHUM REMIX) before "atashi kodomo ja nai"? I haven't heard these lyrics before, and I can't find them online either.
(or is it from another song altogether? it sounds vaguely familiar...)

This remix is from "Driving Hit's Tokyo Auto Salon"
