I'm just glad the album itself didn't get postponed amidst the COVID-19 pandemic which caused postponements of some releases earlier this year (including Leo Ieiri, which had to be moved to the same day as Ayaka's cover album). A bit bummed that the tour had to be called off but that's of little relevance for me since I have no plans to attend them. Now the next step is trying to get it delivered off of Tenso, which may be a bit problematic given the ongoing pandemic and Japan Post suspending international mail deliveries, but I think DHL may be available.

(I ordered it off of the mu-mo shop since I wanted the one with a bonus track (「Hello,Again～昔からある場所～」) that was exclusive to that shop and Room Ayaka's fanclub members, which I still am a member of. I pre-ordered it well back last December on the morning I flew back home from New York to Seattle.)

I was also a bit surprised the 2017-2018 acoustic tour version also streamed on YouTube a couple of weeks back (as part of Golden Week 'stay home' entertainment)! For some reason I still haven't got a chance to order that Blu-ray yet.
