I’m nervous that I’ll be holding my first one-man live at Nippon Budokan on my birthday, but I hope to give a more mature performance after giving birth and turning 30-years-old.
I want to hold a live that I can create together with my fans. This will be my first time having the fans decide the set list. I’m already looking forward to seeing which songs my fans would like to hear live.

KODA KUMI TO PROVIDE OPENING THEME SONG FOR ANIME, “TOTAL ECLIPSE”



On June 29th, it was revealed during a private showing that singer Koda Kumi will be lending her new song “Go to the top” as the opening theme to the upcoming anime, “Total Eclipse”.

According to Oricon, the lyrics of the song were written by Koda Kumi herself specifically for the anime, and are said to have been inspired by the main characters as they face a life or death crisis for the sake of the human race. When asked about the song, the series’ creator and executive producer Yoshimune Kouki commented, “The opening is the face of a production… When you’ve got Ms. Koda Kumi’s vocal power, expressiveness, quality, and the high caliber of her performance, I firmly believe that ‘Total Eclipse’ will reach not only the people [of Japan], but people around the world.”

“Total Eclipse” is a robot action anime based on “Muv-Luv Alternative Total Eclipse”, which is a spin-off novel series of the popular PC game “Muv-Luv Alternative”. The ending theme of the anime, “signs ~Sakugetsu Ichiya~” will be provided by Kuribayashi Minami, who has previously provided songs for the ‘Muv-Luv’ series. GRANRODEO will be participating by providing the background music, along with new singer ayami.

“Total Eclipse” begins broadcasting on TV Tokyo and other television channels in Japan this July.

I'm in love with Beach Mix ♥ Much better than the (also good) DH series imo.

The remixes are very powerful and fun to listen to.

And WWO is one of her best songs to me.

She never stops to impress me

Answering the question from the previous thread. Driving Hit's 4 sold that amount ALL TOGETHER so basically Beach Mix has done better than DH4 in only one day. =)

Sales are great!
Hope it sells steady in the next days as well.

Beach Mix is so good, I'm looking forward to hear it every time.
I'm happy it's done so well. DH 4 was just so-so for me.

Beach Mix is #5 today. The #3 sold about 8k so Beach Mix seems to have sold about 5-6k. We're looking at a 25-30k first week which is great!

She has already said that sexy Kuu will not go away. Namie also has a kid and she still pulls sexy image quite well, why wouldn't Kuu do that also?

There's no news regarding the new single. TOTAL ECLIPSE theme song is called "Go to the top"~

I love her Billboard live, absolutely, I recommend it to watch!
if she does another live like this, I'l be very very happy!

good for the sales too, am I right to think that there is no proper promotion for the album again?

I believe there is a difference between sexy and trashy.

I think of Koda Kumi as trashy, which I have no problem with it.
I guess there is just more than one way to think of sexy.

Namie is a sophisticated kind of sexy
Kumi is trashy sexy.

Also about the single... is the new Anime coming out in the Fall? so it wouldn't be the same song?
