So a short review:
Opening + first segment:
Pretty unspectacular to be quite honest. But she looked so hot and it is probably my favourite part of the show. Ultraviolet is a lame opener though, but it seems to be the tour theme (Kumis code-name is Ultraviolet for the show, the dancers are named after the other songs on the t-shirt). POP DIVA had much more power and energy.
As for the medley that followed: It was fun but short, disappointed me a bit though.
Nothing special for Insane. Bassline was performed with a big hat and a black, hight outfit while the screen showed curtains. Looked really stiff - I hope it changes throughout the tour. Damn real is one of the highlights performance-wise.
W FACE PV looks pretty cool, but as a PV it is really boring. Did not buy it in the end (will probably be on the Tour DVD)
Ballad section:
Okay overall. I only remember Chiisana koi no uta cause everyone sang along which was cute, Heartless was performed with only a piano and there were a lot of girls crying during Ai no Uta. Overall not to draggy thanks to the covers. Enjoyed it, but the outfit is just plain ugly. Sukideshite is the song for the audience to come up the stage.
Upbeat section:
Really loved HOTEL and Taboo. The energy for this was pretty high. The outfit looked strange again and reminded me of M BEST Tour Miliyah and the dance break was pretty weird with some fire-streetfighter action. BE MY BABY and LOADED got the crowed and she did not perform BIO (at least i can't remember). I personally enjoyed Wassup aswell and she cried during Comes Up leaving the crowed singing it.
Encore:
Short and basic. Enjoyed Butterfly, other than that more talking than singing. No special ending but " to be continued".
We have 5 dancers for this tour and a live band during the Ballad section. There seemed to be some sound issues as she kept giving hand sings during the whole show. The stage is he basic level and and upper level on the center pyramid.
If you want to know more details, just ask.
