I believe the video with the two Oiran/Japonesque Kumi's and Kumi in the box is the music video for STRIPPED.
- Before GET NAKED the dancers come out from the sides marching when the room is all dark and they're holding up red light sticks horizontally in the air. It's kind of creepy. Then the video plays and Kumi comes out and blows you away with the performance
- DO ME uses a lot of "autotune" voice which I didn't like so she barely sings throughout the entire thing. It also sounded and felt very Kpop. The background screen has weird Grecian statues of people and dogs spinning around.
- Next is K I think? which she said stands for OK but also for...Koda Kumi, of course. It samples this song

That part is cute, she bounces on the big rubber balls during it. Her and her dancers roll around with the balls a lot it actually looked kind of dangerous sometimes lol the moves they did were great. She then throws balls into the audience. Background screen is very colorful, like a ball pit.
- Eh yo? was fun, don't remember much. She asks the audience to sing the chorus bits but I couldn't tell if people remembered and did it or if it was just the track.
- Living la vida loca and GOLDFINGER. Not sure why this happened but I guess she digs it. Wasn't a fan. Performance was okay, her standing behind a mic mostly and theres a mini dance break in between to slow trip hop type music and goes back to livin la vida loca? It made no sense.
- OMG has a screen in the back that looks like a computer/phone screen or something. Her dancer Akane sits on colorful fabric hanging from the cieling then turns upside down, Kumi goes on top of her and they go up in the air together. She lies backwards on her? And then Akane comes down and just Kumi goes up and spins around really fast. In the 2nd show I think they did something wrong cause she didnt go as fast and it seemed like they were trying to get her to but couldn't.
-During Twinkle the music video plays in the background
-ESCALATE of course has the chess board video screen.
-She cried a lot during Walk of my Life at my show. Little sobs in between.
- The stage for the pirate ship during Black Cherry was very cool, of course, with canons that shot out smoke rings which was my favorite effect. Glad they went all out even for the hall. There is a loud pop/explosion at one point that was too loud for a small hall I think, it's quite startling and just noisy.
