Its good to see Ayu close to her best again. She's been like looking tired, her concerts late last year weren't even close to what she's capable of delivering, what with her injury and all.

I've been watching her eyes and her left hand express her emotions throughout this performance. Her eyes are focused and her "eye of the tiger" look is back. Her left hand speaks volumes instead of being just limp or going through the motions.

I've not seen that depth of feeling since the live performances of Mirrocle World last year.

Catch her expression before she launches into the chorus of To Be. Her eyes narrowing and lightly bouncing on her heels and you'd know she's about to kick ass, to nail every note even if it kills her.

I can't wait to see what Ayu's lined up next..... minus that "flailing old man".

It's funny, but I've noticed that as well. The way her eyes and face were reminded me of her LOVEppears days a lot, I am not sure if it's the bangs, but she seemed different than during the past few years.
