It was like "You probably wonder about the strange title. Ah, can't wait till the release date soon", implying something like that, imo. |
Am I reading too much or it's weird that the "tracklist" of the album doesn't includes NEVER ENOUGH, LIT and PARTY? I mean, for the CD tracklist I think it would be pretty normal to see as...
• LIT • PARTY • NEVER ENOUGH and 7 more tracks. ...or something, but they are stated only for the DVD so far. I think I'm going a little too crazy. haha I wonder if DOLLY and GET NAKED are tracks for this album, as they were recorded a couple of months ago and the ACE Repertory is pretty much on point with her registrations/actual releases, even tho I don't see BINBO RAINBOW happening. -- On other news: LIT now has 700k views on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAWS0ysjphU HUSH has 300k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g98qY25BaHI NEVER ENOUGH has 50k. lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iimiPI7zfZU As for the streaming, this project was pretty good to be honest. |

I forgot to say in the previous thread that what I mentioned applies to both non fanclub & fanclub related tours
And if possible it's best to bring your fanclub ID card in case the staff checks . I don't know how strict they're when comes to fanclub exclusive concert / tours but it's better to be safe than sorry Also I don't know if this happens for Kuu but are there any gift boxes put outside of the concert venues of her domestic tours ? If so for overseas & domestic fans , you can bring whatever you want to give her (be it hand written card , letter , gift & etc) and put them inside the gift boxes The gift boxes look like this https://s17.postimg.org/50pzff3a7/IM...21133752_E.jpg |
Thank you for explanations about zepp :)
I am ready now!!! haha |
hey; i have a random off topic question:
what does d.d.d. (featuring soulhead) stand for? such an odd title for a song... can't find it online. other than that, excited for the new release, even if the title is quite odd |
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DT5Of35VAAECkUj.jpg:large
Can anyone translate what the email is saying? |
Quote:
|
Quote:
The 6 fans chosen in each concert must be fanclub members Not sure if I'm 100% right though Also I think the email contents aren't the full thing . Normally for this , you have to buy the album in order to participate using the application code found inside the album and apply for a series of lucky draw items made available online during a given period of time Maybe you have to buy 1 edition if not all editions of AND to get a shot to win a chance for the backstage meet & greet session And I think that excludes the fanclub version of AND |
^^ huh? why that? was that ever mentioned in an interview?
diamond is sung only once... genuinely thank you for the answer :) |
^ I remember this being discussed last time. I forgot why exactly.
But also, it was mentioned on Wikipedia. Quote:
|
^yes, the three girls are like diamonds and so on...diamonds are also part of the PV.
One of her best songs to me btw. love XXX too, cause it is a bit more badass...but DDD has the better breakdown |
Quote:
I guess, you don't have to buy anything to take part in it. It says at least, that they're going to search through the FC site and more.information will come later. Well, you have to win and pay a ticket for the tour of course. And here we have the first connection to the album title. It's called 「KUMI“AND”YOU MEET&GREET」. |
Quote:
|
I've ordered the FC Version... I really hope the Album includes HUSH, since it's my favorite out of the three Single project...
|
Quote:
did she win best video of the year for ''Yume no Uta'' in 2007? |
Short info.
The ticket lottery results will be announced January 30th, 3 pm Japanese time. Got a mail from the Japanese Koda Gumi. I assume it's the same with the global FC. |
Does anyone have the large, desktop size images of WINTER of LOVE and SUMMER of LOVE promo images without the text?
I had them on my old laptop and realized I never transferred them over. I found a version of WOL on generasia.com but it's not large enough to use as a desktop wallpaper. Looks like this: https://www.generasia.com/wiki/File:...LOVE_promo.jpg |
Quote:
Also low-key loved the namie and kuu interaction, even if it was only namie announcing kuu's name lmao |
@jean-baptiste Winter of Love - https://i.imgur.com/SQK6j6G.jpg As for Summer of Love, I dont have it.

Kuu was pissed today - cause she isn't allowed to speak about the new album yet, even though she wants to. :laugh So she just asked, if we fans want more talking or more singing for the FC tour and if she should sing older songs, doing some planning. |
I'm so hyped but I hope we get new details soon.
|
Less talking - she always goes off on a tangent in her MCs! (sorry kuu but then I start to just space out) and I really hope fans will request old songs :)
|
I really wonder why her team seems to be so secretive about the album this time around? Unless perhaps there's something special going on? Hmm..

But considering the FC Tour is named after the album now, I don't think this is going to happen again - I hope. xD In general Kuu loves talking, which is why she won't stop it. She always makes fun about it herself. Personally it only bothers me, when she is talking too long without any break and interaction with the fans. The last two tours I attended this was the case before she sang walk and I was spacing out as well. :sleeping |
Quote:
|
Maybe the album is called “AND” and everyone’s being hush about it because it’s an album full of collabs? Would be surreal
|
^ If that's the case I'd love if LIT and NEVER ENOUGH got remixed featuring someone~ Even if it's just new vocals like Britney's Slumber Party
|
Abema TV is broadcasting the W Face Tour Final in Okinawa live!
Time: 2018.01.28, starting 5:15 pm Japanese time! (concert is planned to start at 5:30) http://rhythmzone.net/koda/news/detail.php?id=1057725 https://abema.tv/channels/special-pl...9UTkZUZmHKvmVH |
Oh, that's so cool! Hoping there's gonna be a new song from AND on the encore :D
|
Quote:
|
Oh, a pity then :shrug
Let's see if Ningyo hime or something else is added to it then~ |
Quote:
|
Quote:
Back then they announced beforehand what it would be, so I don't think it's going to happen. But talking will be there for sure like in all of her concerts. |
So I just got the confirmation at my job that I can take a few weeks off so I can finally visit Japan! *so excited!*
...and as my luck would have it the advance ticket reservation for the FC closed yesterday. Does anybody know at this point when the rest of the concert tickets would go on sale? |
I don't think there'll be another round :(
|
Quote:
|
The ticket balloting results wouldn't be released til next week & after that there's a certain period of time fanclub members have to pay for the tickets they successfully balloted for
A 2nd round of ticket balloting might open but since the venues are considerably small than where Kuu usually performs in , it's hard to say |
Quote:
Tickets are only sold through her FC. |
Quote:
Quote:
|
Except for 2 dates which fall during the Golden Week period of Japan , the other Koda Kumi Fanclub Tour ~AND~ concert dates are taking place during the weekend
So if you want to ballot a chance for Nagoya dates in May (assuming a 2nd round of ticket balloting might open) , it will be hard I don't know for Hiroshima & Sapporo but you have to specially take a domestic flight to Sapporo but it wouldn't be any easier If all else fails , there's always a small chance that some fans will sell their tickets at the venue on the day of the concert you plan to attend but that's very risky and I personally never tried that before |
The lottery for playroom is still coming, Koda Gumi was first.
But playroom is only for Japanese. :( |
Quote:
damn...well ill keep an eye out for a 2nd round of tickets and maybe consider going to the venue since I'm planning to arrive at Osaka directly... So sad I might be so close but so far from seeing her live this year. Thank you for your comments! Quote:

Kuu recorded again yesterday.
It was a hard part, so she speficially trained her voice before it. And she's worried the mint in her hair won't make it till the tour final on Sunday, lol. Btw. she also said there's not only a ban on her new album, also on the FC tour. Makes sense, considering both belong together. If we get info for one, we probably also know something about the other. I expect we get all the info next week, when the old tour is done and they can concentrate on the new chapter. @duque: I hope you can make it somehow! |

Kuu's staff posted this on Twitter:
Quote:
Quote:
And some are answering, that they want performances of songs never perfromed before (今まで歌ったことないやつとか)! If you have Twitter, use this chance and do it as well in this or the sticky post about the tour! You can also take the Japanese phrase, if you want. The multi-pouch coming with the FC version is ready! https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/6...922/UEerN0.png |
Thanks for the info Corvina, I just sent a tweet to her account requesting to perform a bunch of songs form affection & grow into one, let's hope at least one of the unperformed songs from those 2 albums will make it to the setlist of AND FC Tour. Fingers crossed.
I believe someone was asking for the pics of the FC ed packaging of W FACE LIVE TOUR, I posted them on my insta, just flip through my post my post. Might just be a triangle cardboard box but it looks amazing. |
If she could preform all the songs from Feel My Mind, that would be great. Thanks, Kuu.
EDIT: did Kuu get spacers in her ears? Or are those the fake ones? |
Can someone link the post where you can tell her what you'd like to see performed? I tried looking for it but I don't know enough Japanese to figure out which one it was lol and google translate wasn't much help either..
|
^I just replied to the tweet Corvina mentioned earlier. https://twitter.com/KODAKUMINET/stat...11528004009985
|
Really hoping we get some info on Monday. They are taking too long this time.
|
The concert is ending/has ended and it was pretty much the same from the DVD. No new tracks as far as I know, but since she got a vocal rest with this performance being way after the end of the tour, her voice was pretty good.
|
So, I had no chance of watching the live broadcast, cause I was working till just now. Hope somebody recorded it.
BUT according to Baidu,Kuu revealed at least one cover for AND and she already confirmed we're getting a 2nd tour with the 2nd album this year, another hall tour. |
Quote:
double encore with 1 hour long talking and misonosukenji were in the hall, and camera filmed them during the encore and yes, hall tour again |
Around 300k people were watching the live broadcast, at least in the app.
https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/6...922/is2Q5L.png It was also available on TV, Channel 2. You can find a lot of pics and also videos on Instagram and Twitter. Kuu was even interacting with the TV audience through the camera, cute. Apparently the covers for AND are Kuu sitting on the big lettering of the album title. The playroom ticket round for the FC Tour is 01/28 - 02/07. |
Last / 60th date of KODA KUMI LIVE TOUR 2017 ~W FACE~ today in Okinawa
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DUoufWcVoAA5I0f.jpg:small https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DUoufWXVQAEknp1.jpg:small https://twitter.com/KODAKUMINET/stat...29079376740353 |
Koda Kumi Germany on fb recorded the live broadcast:
https://m.facebook.com/story.php?sto...16989025308826 Some more infos about the AND covers from Kinot on Baidu: Background is white, the upper part of the lettering is white as well and Kuu is wearing three different colours for the three different covers - blue, pink and red. Nothing about the FC cover. |
Sounds like a fun shooting for the cover, can't wait to see it!
|
omg coloorsss <33
I love when kuu gets all emotional and cries for real |
Today I'm entering this thread every 5min to see if there's something out lol I'm so thirsty for information, I hope they put everything out tomorrow or on Tuesday
|
Quote:
|
From what I got with Google Translate, there's a theory in baidu saying the second album could be called DNA, and if that turns out do be real I'm clapping with my feet cause my hands are drying up my tears of joy
|
So funny when the fan accidentally hit the mic in Kuu's face lol She acted so cute!
|
^was that during the W FACE final? Which song was that I didn't watch it yet.
Quote:
|
^He said that about the second album :rolleyes
i can't wait!!! I wanna see right now the covers |
Ok, in the fourth cover she's wearing green. :cool
|
Quote:
I thought she was talking so weird during the chat with the audience. Was it just me? |
I wonder if the letters of the covers are small and Kuu is big or the letters are big and Kuu is small.
|
Quote:
Covers sound tacky from the description but at least we can take a break from her face being on the cover of a single / album since Shhh! single. Maybe she's sitting on the letters in a cool way like on the iconic second session album cover. |
still no news? damn
|
Quote:
Maybe the covers are a collabo with stylists and designers? Considering one of this extravagant hair stylists was present at her shootings ( and btw. the last outfit in the W FACE tour with the purple braids is all Versace). But as you said I'm already happy we get full body shots again AND colours! :P |
I think by wednesday we're getting some information about the album. It's less than a month for the release, so things should probably be prepared by now.
And I wonder if she's doing real promotion like she did last year with W FACE, it was pretty good seeing her doing performances, specially for Music Fair. |
I'm hoping for at least Music Fair and Utacon.
|
Tonight I'm happy I meet kuu in my dreams xD she was working in a little theme park in one attraction and I see her and start to talk her.
I don't know in wich lenguague we talk but she told me about her cats xD I show her ahs and talk about my tattoo of her logo too. Finally we take selfies but she don't want it. The feeling meeting her was so nice. I'm going to sleep now, if I see her again I will talk about the album xD. |
Covers are out
Spoiler:
purple one is hot AF |
OGMDFZGKBNDFKJGNK
I DON'T HAVE WORDS, SO GORGEOUS!!! |
Love it!!!!
|
We'll have to wait for Corvina to share more details if there are any. I hope the purple outfit cover is the Blu-ray edition cover. Green one must be FC edition cover.
|
I'm LIVING for the pink one omg
|
Pink - Fanclub ver
Green - CD+DVD Purple - CD+Blu-Ray Red - CD Only |
I think the AND covers are ok , I'm not blown away by them but at least there're different coloured outfits Kuu is wearing for all the 4 covers
Also if the font text weren't present , the photos look like something from a high end fashion shoot which's not necessary a bad thing I don't like pink but Kuu looks really fierce in the fanclub cover . Would have been nice if the red outfit was the CD + DVD cover but not everyone is able to carry teal colour well so I'm ok with it |
OMGGGG JDKALSJDKLAJKLDAJK QUEEN OF EVERYTHING *_* !!!
#TEAMGREEN |
I'm team pink!
Green is also great! |
Purple is gorgeous!!!
|
Quote:
Green outfit cover reminds me of Dejavu Tsutaya cardboard sleeve cover, which is my fav and the one I'm using as the main cover in my iTunes library. Spoiler:
|
I'm currently recovering - I DIDN'T WIN ANY TICKETS FOR THE FC TOUR! :cry
So next tour for me is the hall tour end of the year. *sniff Anyway, original cover pics size from Koda Gumi: https://imageshack.com/a/img922/7682/VM2UwX.jpg https://imageshack.com/a/img923/2345/VKGN9F.jpg https://imageshack.com/a/img922/4885/YfzLE7.jpg https://imageshack.com/a/img924/1640/MCFm0r.jpg No other info yet. Gosh, just reveal the info and previews! Why are you sitting on it, avex and Kuu? My favourite is pink and I don' even like pink. :laugh Red and purple are nice as well, but I'd have prefered her to sit on the lettering for purple. It's also a pity we can't see the purple outfit properly. The mint green is the worst, this is pretty tacky, lol. |
^ I'm sorry you weren't able to win any tickets for Koda Kumi Fanclub Tour ~AND~
I don't know how Kuu's fanclub works but from what I can assume , normally they tend to give priority to fanclub members who probably don't ballot often and/or 1st timers while for regular fanclub members , it will be 2nd priority ? Then again since ticket balloting is based on luck , it's hard to tell Let alone Koda Kumi Fanclub Tour ~AND~ concert venues are Live House but your luck will be much better for Hall venues as they are much bigger & you can ballot for up to 4 tickets , unlike Live House where each fanclub member only can ballot up to 2 tickets Also do you know if AND is marketed as Kuu's 14th album or Koda Gumi didn't mention anything about it ? |
She looks smokin' in the pink outfit! That look she's giving is just SEX. Purple outfit too is hot!
|
@Karen:
Thanks, but it was clear from the beginning, that it would be hard to get tickets. Even with the two added dates, it's only covering about 28k people. Her 8 dates in Osaka and Tokyo for W FACE Tour alone already covered that amount of people and those were sold out. Too bad, FC tours are rare and the setlists are always awesome for FC related events. Quote:
Guess they don't know themselves, how they should count, lol. |
Quote:
And I agree , fanclub related tours' setlists always tend to be better than a typical tour cos the artiste will normally perform songs that they rarely if not seldom sing Quote:
|
I love the cover!!!
I'm a fan of the Red and Purple. Pink is nice but I don't like her hair and Green is... well ok. |
No FC tour tickets for me as well :( Kinda expected it but still sad...
At least I LOVE the covers and FINALLY my favourite is the FC one omg :heart CD Only is also amazing, her outfit is hawt |
CD only cover is my favorite!
