The corset AND a newly updated bottom lighted up and changed colors. The bottom was big and round and the laces throughout it lit up. When she walked down the runway, the bottom was taken off (The lights go out on her for a few seconds and stagehands remove it) and the corset continued to light up. It changed from blues to oranges and pinks.
And yes I noticed the tears too! They were definitely real. I prefered seeing the show on the first date directly in front of the stage, but my closer seat yesterday (directly across from the catwalk) was interesting to see too!
Damn my sickness, I wish I remembered that outfit more!!! But good to know it wasn't a messup. Though, LacusClyne and I did see her clutching the back of it and she was ushering to be sent down, so perhaps something did go wrong that part of the dress. Perhaps, with all the equipment that's surely there to help light up the dress, it's just too heavy. I'm sure another version will be used next week XD

Yeah, being closer to the second stage (but directly in front of the it like on the first day) provided another way of seeing it. And a whole new set of fans to be around! They were so cute, especially the guys screaming "SUBASAMA! MARO! SHUYA!" Haha, adorable.

Yeah her vocals were for the majority, pretty spot on. Especially for How Beautiful You Are (It was really touching how it started out with everyone sitting and got very emotional for the big finale with all the Arigatou's) But my favorite vocal performance was reminds me. It was even better then the studio version and there was no lipsyching at all during the show.

I think this tour looks pleasant. Not like mindblowingly epic but I think it looks nice. At least from what I see on pictures and hear from reviews. I'm not a huge fan of PQ (album) nor some of those costumes but in all I think this tour is very enjoyable. Or at least, I hope. Can't really say much about it yet.

We had such a nice time. We started dating in t2m PV, took it slow you know, let our love grow. Then it got really serious in 2008. Then after AT2009 we moved in together. It was lovely. Then on AT2010 he asked me to marry him. He was such a sweet. And Ayu gave us our blessings. She was also such a sweet. Now me and Maro are such a sweets together. Aaaw, how time flies.

^Thats a perfect way to put it. No it is not my favorite tour, and it doesn't have an epic or fantasy feel (especially with the band right out as it is set). But it is pleasant fun with some deep dark stuff and a bit of an overarching story, making it worth it and unique!!

My Japanese friend who I went with the second day (and who has been an Ayu fan since her debut) liked the concert. Again not his favorite, but he was REALLY impressed with her vocals. He did note that alot was similar to CDL, but he was laughing about it, not really angry about it. We both noted how much the finale of the main stage )surreal-evolution-surreal, love songs) and the encore were really moving. He isn't crazy about PQ though and too wanted some more Love songs

Wow. I was off for three days and a plethora of news showed up Where to begin...

The costumes seem...alright. Good, actually. She reuses CDL costumes but there seems to be obvious difference with the hair and all, so it's not the same per se. And the rest are fine. She looks great in all of them. Only I don't understand what happens during Return Road? If there's any costume there I don't really like, it's the Return Road costume, but I can't be sure until there's HQ shot of it or any of the other costumes.

How was/is her voice, though?
