^oowww... her nail are so outrageous as always

Can't wait for scans! :D

The outfit looks kinda meh there tho.

For the last time: WHY ARE HER EYEBROWS SO LIGHT???? for a moment I thought she didn't have any

O_O at the nails though.

kikaru XDD so true ! her eyebrows are freakin' light there !

the nails are...surprising? XD
flashy and a bit like claws :innocent

I wish she would have normal length nails, because she seriously look like she's going to scratch someone's eyes out. What's wrong with normal length nails?

That picture looks like it's from 1994. Some very odd choices in terms of colors and clothing.
Yeah and I hope Kumi hasn't been banished to only do nail magazines. :[ That'd kinda suck, you know.

^ She Hasn't She Has Been In Vivi And A Few Other Magazines Recently That Weren't Nail Magazines.

If she had normal length nails, how would she protect herself from the **** haters throw at her? This way she can fight back :innocent

Thanks Sandra :cool

not really feeling the nail art going on in here though

^^Yeah well. Nail art is Ayu's thing. Not Kuu's...

haha :laugh

I actually do like some of Koda's nail art but some of them are just too long & pointy & too complicated :no

Kuu's been doing it for a while, though for Kuu it's claw art not nail art~

She looks good on the cover, I don't get what everyone's talking about o_O

^my biggest problems are the eyebrows. :innocent

saves money on hiring security? :D

Yeah GRACE is right, she's been doing nail art for like ever. She's won one like Nail Queen or whatever it's called for years now. I much prefer Kuu's to Ayu's but that's just me. :yes

kumi does it better though!

No. Nail art is pretty a LOT of girls' thing under the age of 25 in Japan.

well before she was wearing that ''claw style'' which I TOTALLY DISLIKE
there were some great/cute nail art, when they were like ''rectangular'' they were ok

but now...:faint gosh I don't know WHY SHE STICKS WITH THOSE FREAKIN' CLAWS...:irked

^So she can rip the hearts out of stalkers in moon light rituals to appease the music gods so that she can take over Japan.

I like the claws.

:roflmao

Well put ~ *goes back to stalking Kuu*

What is "Song Menu: you?" Is that like a medley or something?

The set list looks pretty good, although I'm sad they don't have amai wana. =[

I think that that track is supposed to be the one where she has someone come on stage and choose the song from the 5 ballads and the one that made the DVD is you :yes

Thanks for the info! Nice but the tracklist isn't one of her best.

The worst part is the cute songs section:

< NTERLUDE MOVIE 2 >
14.　Wonderland
15.　It's a small world
16.　恋の魔法 (Koi No Mahou)
17.　anytime
18.　Run For Your Life

20.　girls

x_x

She could have sexed up songs section instead but it's way over =P

I actually love that part if they had taken out It's a small world [????] and put in Birthday Eve or something. Come Over can also go and girls should be replaced with With your smile :yes

HA HA lol Koda isnt so cute coz of the way she acts in her sexy songs.... i think she shud act cute but in a sexy way :P

Did you see what she was wearing? XD
That outfit just ruined it.
And yeah I was afraid that girls will become her non-encore part ending song =\.

OHHH I'm so excited for the special digest "Where's Kuu-Chan?" or something! Maybe they are gonna show what kuu was doing during the controversy period HAHA.

:roflmao

I like the ones that she wore on Ningyo-hime PV though

Anyway ..

yay new tour DVD but it also means that I"m going to be dead broke when Sept rolls in :weep

no Amai Wana bah

lol that's true

I don't mind this but eee , to hear her sing It's a small world it's another issue :dead2

EN01.　Single Medley： SHAKE IT UP ～ BUT～Butterfly ～ real Emotion～ Crazy 4 U ～ DANCE BATTLE - this sounds really exciting man , I can't wait to see this part at the Encore section

I think it's from the making of of the interlude movie for the cute part =\
Or the movie taken out from the concert..

Oh thanks! I didn't know, but I'm glad "you" made the DVD, it's one of my favorite songs.

Maybe they will show Kuu in some funny places, I remember before at the beginning of one of her concerts, she was shown to be the mascot, which cracked me up.

I can't wait to see it either, but I'm kinda ticked that they're only in a medley :grumpy

I wish SHAKE IT was there instead of SHAKE IT UP. T_T

ahh on the 26th July wowow is airing the tour in TV version format.

i wanted to wait for DVD. but i just can't resist it!

>____< my dreaded section. And wonderland? gahhhh >_<

The encore has nice tracks. I just wish she wasn't wearing those overalls.

thanks ! :D wooo that's kinda fast!
the special ticket for privileges for the next single, I guess it's only for people in japan....like always...:eviltongu

Is it just me or doesn't it look like there's alot of boring songs on the tracklist?
Where's Anata ga shite kurete koto? and Amai Wana? *sigh*
Oh well... lol ^_^

I couldn't agree more. :no

im so excited for this!! i got moon on the release date hopefully that will happen again with this. i love cdjapan!

Here's two previews of what's going to be in the issue: Nail Up

http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/a...0079374849.jpg
http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/a...0079375243.jpg

creds: LuvOfLuver@HoneyFlash ^^
can't wait for HQ scans ^^

Back when most of the tracklist was revealed it said SHAKE IT on and I totally got my hopes up. :( Then when it was all revealed they added the "UP" aat the end and I was so dissapointed. JUICY on the tour would have been great too. T_T
Not bad scans but I miss Sexy Kuu. T_T

wooo I like her second outfit in the magscan-

but I don't really like her nails XD

^ nails.. they are like beautiful claws :mini

those shoes are sooo hot!

sora kara I totally agree
they are freakin' hot!

ooh thank you Sandra :love

I really like the 2nd pic more than the 1st

^ i agree, wtf red trash bag in the first one

:roflmao

the red dress's too baggy on her .

I so love the zebra heels that she wore in the 2nd outfit :love

^^Heh. I never noticed her shoes....

i agree they are too cute! she has a problem with wearing things baggy it seems nowadays..i really wish she would stop that :no

haha are you sure on that ?

that's true it's not doing any good to her figure

it's like she's hiding something from everyone

Well, that was certainly fast. XP

I don't know if I'm going to end up buying it though. :/ I'm not very excited by Kuu-chan right now, which is kinda depressing. Maybe after I see the cover or something?

Like her shoes. Nails scare me. First dress is too big for her.

Still wish she wore jeans in the second pic instead of the leggings. leather pants would be totally hot too

Well, you could wait and watch it first because you know it'll be all over the internet anyway XD

haha & I assumed that you will be uploading it once you receive your copy of the Kingdom tour DVD :innocent

Well, that's true, milky. XD I know certain parts of it will be good, but I'm not sold on the whole idea yet. I don't know... I feel bad that Kuu isn't exciting me like she used to! D:

^^ Probably :P

That red dress is so fug in the first pic, but I do agree with whoever said the zebra print shoes in the second pic were hot.

I think she's just having some downtime or something lol

but yeah

the red trash bag look has gotta go~ She's used it like so many times now. I srsly hate it

don't worry I'm like that too
dunno why :shrug
sometimes it just happens. XD I guess it'll change with the next single


if it's airing on TV...d'you think there will be some rip ? I mean are we going to find it on internet? or just some parts?

What's new?
I saw some scans, something about a tour?

Hi guys! Look a found this chinese koda kumi forum, I tried to register but I dont understand their question. I see the koda kumi kanji name but still missing something.
Here try to register u will understand xD

Kris , buddy !

The Kingdom tour DVD's going to be released on 24th Sept !

The tracklist of the DVD -> http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showth...37#post1557937

It seems like September is going to be the toughest month for kuu..
since Ayu gonna release her A complete singles during that month also

and i'm... gonna be broke :thud

yeah man , it's not helping matters that a LOT of my fave Jpop acts are putting out new releases from late Aug onwards :weep

well i think ayu can wait.. she's not really releasing "new stuff" anyway..

so.. i'm saving for kuu :yes

haha ok

I bought all 4 of Koda's DVDs from HMV HK but for the Kingdom one , I'm going to wait for Warner to bring in the OS press .

Not that thrilled with the tracklisting honestly especially since Amai Wana's not included :(

Any idea whether the performance of LAST ANGEL's just her alone or with the TOHOSHINKI boys ?

^ It's a solo performance.

I feel the same about the tracklist, I pre-ordered ayu's A COMPLETE mainly for the DVD and it has much better tracklist :P
Kingdom TOUR can wait. (I also prefer albums over DVDs).

I wish amai wana was in ku's concert as well and that there wouldn't be that whole cute section. I might skip on most of it.

Thanks Jia Rong

Koda & ayumi are quite big in S'pore & chances are that Warner will either manfacture or import their stuff over here to be sold , so I don't see why I should get it on the net .

Anyway ...

earlier on I was watching MTV Mandarin's J & K Pop Chart which's aired every weekend on 6-7pm .

Moon Crying's at no.5 on the top10 singles chart in Taiwan . It's a typo error since they put MOON on the title & they were giving away both editions of the MOON single too .

In case you're wondering whose's no.1 , it's ARASHI boys with One Love :D who dethroned Tegomass's Aiaigasa

From truehappiness's a-nation set list thread:
Does she have a new song? Wasn't this one of the titles from the rumored the remix best or whatever?

it's this lol omg it's gonna be so cute

http://youtube.com/watch?v=JF2KT-N91cg
http://youtube.com/watch?v=bqlHFfvsgCI

With a song title like Venus you could do SO much more than make it just the Venus song >.>...

I just noticed this isn't the first time where she had black hair + light eye brows (BUT covers). I really hope she changes her bobcut..hopefully by her next single~

kuu attended this celebrity couple's wedding :P

http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/a..._thumbnail.jpg

http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/a..._thumbnail.jpg

love the long hair, lol.

YAY HAIR. She looks cute :yes

that's from 2003 lol

what? this wedding was recent, i think. no one specified on JPM what year it's from.

LOL

maybe it will be something fun like Tackey & Tsubasa's one ?

ANYWAY ...

She did the following songs at the 1st day of a-nation festival :

1.Lady Go!
2.Venus
3.Moon Crying
4.Once Again
5.Medley [Crazy 4 U -> Real Emotion -> Shake It Up]
6.FREAKY
7.girls

Thank god for no That's Ain't Cool phew

OMG yes I'm soo happy she performed Once Again. I hope its on the dvd

me too

it's nice that she did that alongside with Lady Go ! because frankly to me these're the 2 songs that really stood out in MOON , not really feeling much love for the other 2 songs

Okay.. Is she going to make her next album to be the theme of solar system?
Venus, Moon [Moon crying],

Where is Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune (I don't know if Pluto and Eris are counted).

Anyway, I like she has long hair rather than short.

:roflmao

maybe her next album will be titled Universe

SHE PERFORMED Lady Go! ?! YES! YES! YES! :clapclap:yatta:syesyes:shimmy

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHa
OMG u're so cute


So Venus is her new song???

Me too! "Once Again" pwns the crap out of everything else on MOON. "Lady Go!" is okay but it rips off Kylie Minogue's "Wow" wayyyy too much.

oops i may be wrong... this is what it said when i translated kumiloves.free.fr

As I announced the day before yesterday, Koda Kumi attended the gala celebrating the first anniversary of Eiko Koike and Wataru Sakata. We have the right to a few images that show us a Koda Kumi who looks like that of 2003.

i thought it meant that it shows how she looked like in 2003, but if thats what she looks like now, then YAY! i love the long hair! i thought it was really beautiful in the gentle words pv.

I thought Venus was like the commercial...like I'm your Venus, I'm your fire, your desire? No?

^She appears to be doing some sort of song based around that D:

the tour is uploaded at D-addicts. 2GB

get it now :)

Ha id love to here her song uranus :P maybe something ecchi

I take it her next song will be upbeat then?

I REALLY hope "Venus" isn't her next single, seriously that'd be more product placement in one place than a rap video has in it >.>... A b-side, MAYBE, but that's only because I liked her voice in those little commercial thingies :3

Uhhhh I just thought she was covering the original "Venus" by The Shocking Blue just like she does in the Venus razor commericials. That's not a new song! That's not even HER song!

And of COURSE she didn't sing "That Ain't Cool." What would she do for that song? Stand there? It's not like she actually sings in that song! :laugh

^I could understand it in the Venus commercials, but why preform it at a-nation if she's not going to release it eventually?

^ I dunno... I just think it's lame that she considers that a "new song"... :/

Well her cover of it is technically "new" still, it's hard to imagine Avex deciding to have Kuu do something with a cover song, especially the Venus song o_O

i don't like the idea of her singing venus :no

Venus? THE CM song?

I love Once Again the very 1st moment I heard it , Triple D

too bad that didn't get a PV on its own :(
