I love the extra footage they included on the DVD! The bloopers are hilarious, and there are SO many of them included that it was well worth the money. The concert was OK.. good for some laughs (especially Princess Yoko's singing when Ayu introduces the band during "Inspire"... Oyeeesh!). I also enjoyed the part before the encore when she asked the whole band about their New Year's resolutions.. those were interesting to hear!

Also, there seems to be a bit of confusion about what she said during "Trauma." She didn't say "boku ga wasuretai yo," she said "Kashi wo wasureta yo" which means "I forgot the lyrics!" Then, after that she said "zenzen wakaranai yo."

To me, though, it was SO fake that she forgot the lyrics. Anyone can remember those easy lyrics, and another thing is that she didn't even falter. She started out humming it right away, without even thinking about what the lyrics were. Then she starts singing it and breaks into humming again, as if we believe that she doesn't know the lyrics! It seemed a bit fake for me, maybe to get a cheer out of the audience.
