Going on here.
Yeah, it was the same dress, but still beautiful. And that outfit after...wooo, looked as if she would blow it up with her body, so sexy! :heart Don't know if she gained some weight again or muscles, but gorgeous! She had troubles reaching some high notes in Ai no Kotoba, but overall alright performance vocally. Though she can do much better than that. |
Ai no Kotoba? bleeh
can't wait to see BE MY BABY though did someone make screencaps? I missed it ;_; |
is that the Love Me Back cover??? O.O
|
The final now, everyone on stage.
Didn't make one, but I hope somebody records it in good quality. Kuu is wearing a long black dress now. She's standing right beind the guy who's speaking, but you can't see her properly. XD http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/6278/unbenanntamd.png Lol, that's the only screencap I could make just now. All artists got flowers, but they didn't show anybody with a close up, everything from far behind. >__< Overall the camera work was pretty bad. |
It's kinda funny that new Kuu threads pops up just as fast as she puts out new singles/album :roflmao
Well, as Corvina said, the camera was very bad, but I enjoyed Kuu's part. She is just getting more and gorgeous, not to say that she was amazingly hot :love |
|
omg gorgeous :heart I love her hair and that awesome dress!
|
Yeah, and that must be her real hair, comparing with the pics in the Dejavu Tour blog! :heart
For the Ai no Kotoba performance she just had her hair being tight up in that dress. After she wore a black/metallic corsage with short pants and a black veil at the back of the pants, her hair was open. I so hope pics from the performance will pop up soon at japanese news sites, she looked just gorgeous! EDIT: zephyrous recorded the whole lot and posted it at JPC. Cause I can't repost it here, I just post the link to his post, hope that's ok: http://jpopcentral.yuku.com/sreply/7...ack-11-30-2011 |
OMG she looks amazing and magnificent :luv2
everytime I wonder if there's a word more than "Love" to describe how I feel about Kumi :heart . |
^ haha I know what you mean xD
Still don't like the song choice but can't deny she rocked that stage. She looks frikkin aMAZING |
direct link: http://www.facebook.com/v/295687667124474
she sounded bad during ai no kotoba, I guess she's sick or something ): bad choice indeed BE MY BABY, on the other hand, was perfect as always :luv2 that outfit + hair + energy omg love it! |
blah i always hate her hair parted down the middle like that.
|
How fast does this woman put out singles? Is avex trying to milk her fans as long as they still can? o.0
|
Ai no Kotoba didn't sound as good as when she sang it last year. I think she's just tired though :)
the hair is so 2006. yaaaaaaaaaaaay |
Aww I loved the little confusion she had at the end...adorable. :laugh BE MY BABY was awesome :) I love how formal and almost timidly cute she speaks at concerts like this. :heart
|
I didn't watch it all the way through. I'm a bad Kuu stan.
|
|
Yey for youtube videos when other sites are slow or just hates me~ :heart Kuu looked beautiful and she made me cry when she sang Ai no Kotoba. When she sang BE MY BABY I felt like jumping on the walls because of the energy. She looked absolutely gorgeus too! :luv2
And I want her hair. *____* |
She stepped on her skirt and almost fell off on BE MY BABY, so cute XD
|
those performances were amazing! i loved kuu's outfit in the "BE MY BABY" performance. fierce! :luv2 she looked stunning.
|
I hadn't noticed on the live broadcast that she's changed her hairstyle, she looks EVEN.MORE.INCREDIBLY.HOT O___O omg she is also with an amazing body, she better be looking like that on LMB PV and lives!

^That's so adorable when she recognizes the camera and smiles, I freakin' love this woman so much. :heart She was smiling at people (and probably other fancams) throughout the performance, she's such a gem. :heart
I love that screenshot, actually! Really cute expression! :D |
That screenshot is a really good picture of her. I love it!
|
Kuu is such a sweetheart. :heart I love her so much <3
|
So sweet she smiling ♥
BLENDA 10/11 and CUTiE 09/11 http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q...blenda1011.jpg http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q..._cutie0911.jpg Click to see bigger. So, that's it. All the scans are out. |
Check this out:
http://imageftw.com/uploads/20111011...1101114112.jpg Found from last.fm Kuu's shoutbox. XD And yes, she's hot as hell. I wish I looked that hot. :luv2 |
LOL at Jungle's face XD
But Kumi looks hot, she should stay with this hair for Love Me Back PV and promotion. |
Found some little fancams of Kuu in Vietnam. :) The first vid where they all arrive I think, you see Kumi at the start and in the background, and then halfway through introducing herself excitedly to another artist arriving. :) Second vid is her getting into her taxi/car.
She looks beautiful in the black dress. :heart Another little pic of Kuu performing BE MY BABY: http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g3...0_kodakumi.jpg Also, I apologize if this has already been posted but I believe these are the updates for AWT on Recochoku :) Ai wo Tomenaide Recochoku weekly #9 full (last week #3) #13 uta (#5) #8 videoclip (#4) #13 movie (#4) #1 RBT (#1) 5 WEEK Well done, Kuu! :D On a LAST NOTE, I come with 2 goodies. :D I ripped instrumentals of 'Poppin'Love Cocktail' and 'Ai Wo Tomenaide' off Utauga.jp, if anyone wants: http://www.mediafire.com/?uht964w58x7rsz4 http://www.mediafire.com/?56a59ac7t0nulfd |
Sorry for the double post guys but I just had to post this. I was stumbling around Vimeo looking for Koda Kumi lives when I found these two videos. Some woman called Helen had put up videos saying that Kumi is under Monarch Mind Control and sold her soul to the devil for fame and money with the whole asian music market exposed...and her evidence for this is....because kuu likes butterflies. XD I know there's probably loads of vids on Youtube about asian artists being in the illuminati (Oh, she also has a video where apparently Ayu is an Illuminati puppet) and what not, but I found this so halerious I thought I would pass it on:
http://vimeo.com/26013669 http://vimeo.com/26014216 Where do people come up with this?? XD It amazes me how someone can take a love for butterflies and somehow turn it into a conspiracy, LOL. |
Thanks for the videos + instrumentals + charts + etc :D :D :D
lmao at these videos, they've made me night :roflmao |
rofl at the pictures xD
amazing |
her legs are ****ing amazing lol
And lol at that....other girl who's back again~ |
Kuu looked so hot at that event <3.
|
:thudGUYS, THE WEBSITE UPDATED THE NAME OF THE SONGS ON THE SINGLE!! CHECK IT!!
http://rhythmzone.net/koda/news/110926.html SAY HER NAME IS FINALLY BEING RELEASED OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGG :thud And the third track is a remix... Well, I usually like remixes, so no big deal. Just hope they include instrumentals. AND OMG STILL CANT BELIEVE WE'RE FINALLY GETTING SAY HER NAME :luv2 |
^ "finally"? Has Say My Name been mentioned before? It doesn't ring a bell to me.
|
omgdead
Say Her Name... :laugh i was wondering when we'll get this! i think this suits well with the concept of the single, so maybe thats why she release it now!? argh the cd only damn gorl, hot! Edit: oh i see it wasn't posted here... xD check my tumblr for covers.. the red one is CD only, the promo pic we know is CD+DVD, and the other one is the mu-mo edition |
Tracklist:
1. Love Me Back 2. Say Her Name 3. Love Me Back remix(仮) CD ONLY http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/3766/26318893.png CD+DVD http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/3747/cddvd.png mu-mo edition http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/7505/cdmumo.png credits: Lidayu :thud :thud |
ooomg <3 thanks tsubasa!
cd-only and mu-mu edition are YUM :heart cd+dvd is still awesome too. i'm just wtfing at the goats haha its soooo cool say her name is finally gonna be out! @tenshi no hane, aages ago we saw Ina Wroldsen, who's a songwriter (Leona Lewis's My Hands, Pixie Lott's Gravity, Pussycat Dolls' HushHush, Britney Spears's He About to Lose Me etc) had a song called Say Her Name for Kumi Koda on her website but it never got released.. I can't remember what era this was though |
^i think it was rumoured to be her spring single after BEST ~third universe~ & 8th AL "UNIVERSE"!!
|
I kind of like the covers, but she looks sooo tired on them.
|
I like CD+DVD the best, the one we already knew. The other two are a bit wtf at first look to me, but still a nice concept. :laugh
Hope we get more inside pics this time. And yes to Say Her Name, about time! Thanks to all those pics and fanvideos from the Vitenam live! I love her body so much now, got so perfect again. She just rocks having a bit more. And that screenshot with her smiling in the fancam! :heart |
I love the red CD only cover the most, she looks fierce. :D And woo! Say Her Name will finally be released. :D I remembered it being rumoured for a single not too long ago but I can't remember which one...I think it might have been Gossip Candy, actually. :)
Can't wait! Single's gonna be FIERCE. :heart |
I think she looks ridiculous in the mu-mo edition cover lol. Loving the regular ones! And Say Her Name is FINALLY released omg.
Can anyone translate this? It's supposed to be the first press bonus for the single. From her official site: 初回盤封入特典:豪華くじ引き付き!(※本人ビジュアルステッカー付き!シールをはがすとくじ 引きが!) |
A lottery ticket with a beautiful drawing, it's up at CDJapan as well.
|
CD Only is one of her best single covers in a while.
|
Covers really remind me of BC era :heart
Kuu-chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnn!!! |
I like the concept of the covers, but she looks tired imo.
Quote:
|
Awesome covers. I love the CD Only cover the most. She's so fierce and sexy there. :heart
|
I love the covers and I can't wait to hear Say Her Name.
|
Sorry the double post;
UHQ covers http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/5...kcddvdu.th.jpg http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/2441/...kcdonly.th.jpg http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/152...dgoodie.th.jpg Click to see. |
CD-only is my fave :heart
|
Still not a fan of the covers - they look kinda cheap. The goats or whatever they are on the side remind me of reindeer and me wishing it were a winter themed single. Lol.
|
Thank you for the UHQ covers, Kaled! I love the CD version even more now seeing it in UHQ. :heart
I think all 3 are awesome. There's only a couple or so things I find a bit off such as Kuu's head kind of blocks the name of her text and makes it feel a bit off centre (although I do see it's meant to look like shes coming out of the frame :)) And the goats and text seem to get cut off at the sides, which makes it kind of look like it's been badly cropped, hahaha. But other than that they're awesome. :heart I'm very glad they're more creative photo's with the layout and the font. :D |
such amazing covers! i love them all! but my most favorite is the CD only. :luv2
|
The mu mu cover is the best and it reminds me somehow of Cherry girl, which I really liked. Be my Baby is just too awesome, why didn't I pay attention when she released Eternity?
|
I love the CD Only cover best. She looks so hot on it. Also excited for Say Her Name. Overall, I'm very excited for this single.
|
Just saw this pic on tumble [user: kosokosoko]
http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lt...zfdio1_500.png Kuu looks so flawless :love edit lol, the one kaled posted is much better, ignore this |
New Dejavu Tour promo pic
Spoiler:
And the date of the broadcast: 12.18 http://www.wowow.co.jp/live/koda/ Edit:We've posted at the same time lol |
CD-only is the best cover. Dejavu promo looks hot!
|
Is this where she preforms magic tricks? And I'm assuming that the other two girls were pulled from the crowd.

I think I'll wait for the DVD release to watch it. don't like when they cut things out of a full concert but OMG, amazing picture! I'm deffo going to love this tour :luv2 |
omfg hell yes :heart
|
Amazing Promo pic and super covers for Love Me Back:-)
So happy with everything Kuu does^^ |
I seriously love that Dejavu Tour promo pic. She looks gorgeus <3
|
That promo photo is amazing. :heart This girl has been on a roll since 2009 for me~
|
omfg why this woman is so perfect!!!!!!! :)
|
amazing promo pic!
wowow its a private channel, isn't it? I would love to know the popularity of that tv-event since the channel is already buying all her tours since first things and broadcasting it quite before the relese date. Considering avex it's so "money money" it's rare.. but anyways it's promotion after all |
I can't tell if Kuu fans are super amazing and easily pleased, or if Kuu is just epic and releases only amazing stuff. Because, I swear, the majority of the responses to anything she does is "omg, epic".

Ai wo tomenaide sales update:
2,560 倖田來未 Total so far: 39,806 |
^Not too bad imo.
And I don't even say anything about Kuu's epicness since I'm a stan. I seriously love everything she does no matter how bad it might be to others. 8D |
Oh wow, just saw FC tickets for Kuu's tour concert on 10/27 staying at about 70,000 Yen (about 650 € or 900 US$)on YAJ! And the auction isn't over yet.
I love Kuu, but that's not worth it, I'd never pay that much for tickets. Some others are at 30,000-40,000 Yen, that's already a lot of money, lol. Especially cause there are others just startin at 100 Yen, even though those aren't FC tickets and worse seats. Also found some pics of the Qlix x 4 TIMES camera there: Spoiler:

or, I think that us awesome koda fans are just positive happy people :roflmao We like being happy :spazzed |
Kuu in Vietnam (pictures from playroom)
http://i51.tinypic.com/2litxe1.jpg http://i55.tinypic.com/n1qhis.jpg :3 |
^what is she doing there?
|
^Looks to me like she is buying a hat and probably attempting to mimic some sort of hand gesture that is used in Vietnam.
|
Photo's from 'Favorite Room' in Playroom. It's where Kuu posts picture's of herself in her favorite outfits. The one from 'IN THE AIR' PV is gorgeous. :heart And I love the one with the waistcoat and glasses.
http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g3...th/photo12.jpg http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g3...ith/photo3.jpg http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g3...th/photo22.jpg http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g3...1296113684.jpg http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g3...-478951117.jpg http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g3...-193590988.jpg I wanna copy her style now, I'm such a Kuu stan, hahaha. Actually her clothes seem to be what I like to wear anyway, so that's pretty awesome. :heart EDIT: OOPS! Forgot to credit Kumi-flash for the photo's. Thank you! :heart |
^ she looks funny at the second pic :ybiggrin
|
Quote:
|
In love with the second pic and the one with Linkin Park's t-shirt (: I didn't know Kuu was a fan of them btw
|
Kuu usually dresses really nicely to me, but the outfits she deems as her favorite to me are kinda odd. But, that's Japanese fashion for you.
Off topic a bit: I have fallen in love with Anata Dake ga. After someone on here, I think it was NintendoHTF1242, referred to it as "one of her most godly ballads", I decided to listen to it again, I was like "what? this ballad isn't god- oh... oh my! This song is amazing!!!!!". I used to think it was like, boring as hell. I don't know what happened. It just clicked. |

|
About Kuu fans. What I've noticed in us is that we are extremely happy. I like to be happy~ :heart

Just go to the first sites of this thread and you will see what she did there last weekend. ;)
|
Hmm, did I miss something or is it true that no one has ripped Ai to tomenaide or You are not alone PVs from the DVD yet? O_O I just realized I still haven't seen either of them. :(
|
On average there are just about 3 songs on a Koda Kumi album that I would really listen to, the others are just too bland or boring imo.
But I just love her live performances, they're so energetic and fun. Ans she seems such a cute and nice person. :) Props to this woman. :D |

Got Kumi Dejavu glasses, I didn't know how they change colour, so I tried hot water first and was disappointed XD
Spoiler:

I love the covers for the new single btw :luv2 |

And here is a fan report from yesterday's Dejavu Tour concert: Quote:
Notice the mention of "Black Cherry" as the second song on the tracklist. :heart Don't know if it was a typo but if she really sang it then OH. MY. GOD. O_O |
^ they meant "Black Candy" as it's the second song on the setlist ^^
|
^I like both songs but it would've been cool if she performed Black Cherry :yes
