I just wanna check if everyone who won has gotten their card deducted immediately because mine hasnt and I want her to take my money so I can have a peace of mind

Anyone wants the code from my copy of Finally? I'm gonna be giving mine away since I got the dates I wanted!

Me, please :(

^ Just sent it to you via PM!

Does someone want my code from my copy of Finally as well ? I'm not going to use it.

EDIT: already given... That was fast !!

I have a code to offer tooo!!!

(can someone help me with this:::
I just wanna check if everyone who won has gotten their card deducted immediately because mine hasnt and I want her to take my money so I can have a peace of mind)

I would gladly take a code off of someone's hands if they won't be using it!

Mine was, but I think it's listed still as a pending charge. Maybe that's the difference?

Mine is listed as pending too.
Also on the results email it says payment is until December 3rd so maybe they won't deduct your card until then?

That's really bad for me, cause they could've charged me if they waited one day more. Haha damn! And I emailed them. Emailed fanspace. No answer at all. =C

Because of my fail planning I could only apply for 2 tickets per lottery which may not be enough for my group but even during times of shortcomings, must always try to see the positive. For now, I still have 2 tickets to the June 3 show in Tokyo where most of my Japan friends live :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

Still gonna try to see if I can grab a group of 4 off resale.

Thank you! Ok I hope that will be the case :)
(though i dont see the 3rd December date on the email haha)

edit: I just went to Ticketbo's site and I saw an updated section called "PAYMENT CONFIRMATION" with a date. So I reckon, they have deducted my card but it's still not reflected lol

====

So yes I do have code if anyone wants :D

AND ALSO ANOTHER QUESTION:

What do you do if one of your friends couldn't make it and you want to resell that ticket you balloted for? Can we talk about this since I believe many here have bidded for a few concerts and may not make it to all hhaha

^just pm’ed you if it’s still available lol

I have an unused code too. Sadly I won't be able to get over there to see her, so I'd be happy to give to someone who can. PM me!

I've got a spare code as well, Anyone who needs is welcome to PM.
EDIT: code taken

^i’m so lame about Namie’s news but i’m eager to attend her final tour. How do those code work? I want one if they’r still available loool.

The code comes with the new album, but I don´t know uf it only comes with the first press.

The application tickets look similarly like this

https://s7.postimg.org/pehyw41rv/DP89_Mj4_V4_AAE48c.jpg

So what you have to do is to log onto the website printed on the ticket and utilise the serial number in each application ticket to ballot for Namie's tickets

Normally the application tickets are 1st press

Do you need to be part of Namie's fanclub in order to use the code? Sorry if this has already been addressed!

No you don't have to be. =)

My card still hasnt been deducted....gettig worried :(

FRAU: NAMIE AMURO – 25 YEARS CHRONICLE (Part 1: English Translated Tetsuya Komuro Interview)

Upcoming interviews:
Part 2: Hair&Make-up Artist Akemi Nakano
Part 3: Composer, Lyricist, and Producer Nao'ymt
Part 4: Music Journalist Koremasa Uno
Part 5: HEY!HEY!HEY! Producer Masaru Sasaki

Hey, it hasn't shown on my transaction history either, but it shows the amount deducted in my bank account's available balance vs ledger balance. Maybe have a check on your side?

wow thank you...this was so good. I knew she always had her hands in it despite everyone calling her out for not doing her own music.

Ohhh yea its under pending transactions lol!

Thank you so much for the translated interview link - I look forward to reading it!

She just announced she's opening up another general lottery that goes from December 4th to December 10th.

I don't really understand the timing of this lottery, since a large majority of people are still waiting for the results of the CD Code lottery lol

Hey guys so I'm trying to register for Namie tickets but I live in the US so I'm not sure how to fill this out. Does anyone have any tips on how to fill this out correctly or if this is even needed? I don't want to be turned away for having the wrong address on my ticket...

What resale website do you go through if you don't mind me asking? It's seems the one I used a few years ago is being a bit weird with responding.

Did anyone else's pending transaction disappear from their credit card banking? I don't have mine anymore

Prefecture would be your state and city is city

I used ticketcamp but you would need someone from Japan to help out because account registration is only for Japan residents.

namie amuro×docomo TYPE B

annnnd i dunno if it was posted already? preview of the VR version of Christmas Wish. Wish we got this version on the blu-ray too.
Christmas Wish [7/11 ver]

Hopefully we'll get the full version of that PV too. :)

Is the finally date in June already sold out completely? I noticed the general ticketboard lottery only included a selection of dates and wasn't sure if they were gone, or just trying to fill out some of the dates that may be less popular?

I also saw a slew of new lotteries for the tour...general ticket board, Hulu, and some other account-based one. They aren't playing with this tour!

I don't really see a difference between Type A and B.:confused

^

It's just minor differences between the 2

Of the new songs I love Hope and I also love how it keeps the feel of Fight Together. In Two and How Do you Feel Now are my favourites and Finally, I think, is up there with her best ballads.

Aw man I knew it was most likely a green room filming of the DoCoMo ad, but it would have been cool if it was a live filming in Shibuya Square wasting millions of dollars and causing massive traffic for one day.

These DoCoMo CMs are so good, I can't stop watching them. She looks so pretty in all scenes/outfits :luv2

Hey guys I just received my copy of Finally today so heres another lottery code available for anyone that is interested. I know the general lottery is open but if anyone wants to try with the CD lottery just PM me. I'll give it to whoever messages me first.

*gone!

Wow! So happy that an english sub was created!:heart
The translation seems pretty good. I really enjoyed watching it. I can't wait for more chapters to come out.

It was so refreshing to see how genuine she really is and to see her cry just remembering how she felt when she had came back from her hiatus. I know we’ve all seen her teary eyed performance s but it’s different to actually see her share what her thoughts were at that moment in time and why she was emotional.

I love this so so much.

Thanks ... she seems to be a really really nice person ...

I enjoyed the first part of the doc so much! Thank you for subbing!

She’s sooo sweet and humble. Thanks for the subs.

Namie decorationg christmas cake again <3

Anyone can extract this video from the site?

She is a nice person. She is also a quiet person who doesn't like the crowd. She wants people to respect her privacy.

That is understandable.

This week, Finally ranked 2 with 93,589 sales (1st place: B'z with 201k).

Total after 4 weeks: 1,687,820

BestFiction's total sales: 1,552,843
181920's total sales: 1,693,153
Concentration 20's total sales: 1,929,860
Sweet 19 Blues' total sales: 3,359,450

Let's see, if it can become Namie's second best selling album.

She’s so humble.

But wow I had no idea she was singing “I’ll be there” in “Don’t wanna cry” this entire time... I’ve been singing “agete” lol

LOL I didn’t know for the longest time that was what she was singing either, I usually ignored the whole song till I understood the hype around it, and then I had to look up the lyrics, that’s how I discovered what was being sung.

^really? Never misheard that lol

^ Me neither. lol. I always thought it was some of her better english.

If I'm being completely honest the first I heard of it, it sounded more like "Ah bidet" but that's neither here nor there :p

They didn't cover anything between Suite Chic and Baby Don't Cry.:(

I can rip the videos from the website (same with what I did with the Christmas Wish short clip VR version) , do you want both clips or ?

Thank you for sharing! The last part was so touching :weep

That whould be awesome :luv2

Thank you so much :luv2

docomo making

i can't handle how cute and dorky she is in this tbh. and i am still shoooooooook at the white outfit being her now and not an actual throwback picture.

^
Aww, they didn't include my favorite part from the fanspace version lol

https://thumbs.gfycat.com/TenderRigi...restricted.gif

I live for the 2010 look.

^^ she looks sooo cute, she never ages.
Namie became her own producer After never end. :/ that was shocking.

Is that Hossy with her?? What he is doing there?? Is he a choreographer now?

^

Yeah, he's one of her choreographers now!

I wish an extended version would be released.:yes

This is... too adorable. :love

I still haven't realised that we won't be getting any new music from now on :(

depending how "touched" she is by her fans, we may get a farewell song

I was just watching the part 2 of the NHK interview and at 4:21 you can see the promo for A BEST. Thank you for the subbed interview it is really interesting

Maybe its cuz of my AyuxShuya fandom back during my Ayu days, but Namie and Hossy would look cute together. Atleast better than Namie and hideous Sam.

Hossy's cute so I support that haha.

She seems pretty comfortable with him too. There's a lot of moments throughout various tours where he does something that makes her laugh while she's performing. I always thought that was cute. :laugh

Damn that woman had me crying at the end

Preview for the 3rd hulu episode~

God, I love Can't Sleep, Can't Eat, I'm Sick. Been listening to it nonstop for the past couple of days. Not such a big fan of the Finally Ver but that's okay because the original is gold. I've been having a lot of fun trying to get work done while listening to her fun dance tracks. Can't sleep, can't eat, I'm sick, Funky Town, Fast Car, Copy That, Chit-Chat, Showtime. God, she has some the best fun dance tracks. I can't even decide which is my favorite.

Hi All, I am a bit confused about the tickets, hoping someone can clarify?
I registered for 1 show using album code, is that the one being drawn on the 22nd Dec?
When is the general sale?

At Kanagawa's Musashi-Kosugi Station

https://twitter.com/nananamimie0920/...52838654111744

^^

Yes, the album code lottery is the one that will be drawn on the 22nd.

The next general lottery opens on the 18th and goes until January 8th.

Thanks for the response :) I ended up buying another two tickets because I am so keen to see her perform for the first/last time.

That was so predictable....
my album came today, one day after the lottery has end... I couldn´t go anyway but I wanted to give the code to a friend, now that code is wasted because of super slow mail and custom....

I hate that outfit she's wearing in her documentary. But I cried a lot with the 2 videos from her NHK special! Interesting to see her comenting her own career.

She just added 2 additional dates to the tour.

February 27th @ Fukuoka
April 15th @ Sapporo

A new fanspace lottery for those dates will be open in a few hours that goes until the 24th.

^ Was just about to post. :)

Hope is slipping further and further away for her to appear on any end of year shows. Given the Kokuhaku special on NHK, I'm still trying to hold out some hope for a Kouhaku performance as a surprise.

We all knew this was going to happen, right? I mean, continuously. They're going to add more and more dates haha I hope to be there in the very last final (which I don't believe is the June 3rd one)

Namie will appear on this year's Kouhaku !

http://www.nhk.or.jp/kouhaku/topics/topics_171219.html
https://natalie.mu/music/news/261770
http://namieamuro.jp/news/2017/20171219_nhk/

She will be making a special appearance on the show and the last time she was invited to perform at Kouhaku was 2003

COOL!!! but she's not taking any sides m i right?

Kouhaku wrote that Namie will be appearing on the show as a 'special singer' . I don't know what's supposed to mean

I wonder what song/s Namie will sing , I think she should do a special medley to conclude her 10th & last appearance on Kouhaku

That probably means she's either pre-recorded or will be tuned in while she's singing somewhere else.
Happened with Misia or Utada in recent years.

YEEEES I'm so happy !!

I just saw CDJ's post about her Kohaku performance -- I'm so excited!!!

Today's news coverage on Namie's last appearance on Kouhaku

NHK Okinawa https://twitter.com/miwako02ac035/st...89410160988160

https://twitter.com/mac_genic/status/943100404136517633

Personally I think she may have a last appearance on kouhaku next year, as her final performance ever. But I don't know haha I just have this feeling

lol, literally just after I made the post about hope slipping away that she will appear. Yayyyy!

Next 22nd is the result? Hope my card doesn't get declined again. I've just paid it lmao

WOW! KOUHAKU!

Thats right!

My goodness...Namie in her final year, and going to appear in the Kouhaku...this could be really exciting, especially for the red team!

(I know, she's not officially part of any team, but still...)

Seriously the wait for lottery results is killing me--I hope we find out at some point tomorrow!
