Off-topic, but PayPal lets you choose to convert the currency with your bank and pay in yen instead!

Love the cover, wish I could get this release but with the current situation I can't afford it, maybe someday in the future, she looked really cute during the live diggest video

^ thanks.

I usually don't buy DVD, but I think this time I may get it. Show was awesome, it definitely deserves to be released. The only thing that bothers me, is that video was cropped

finally a new release! I hope the live CD will have better audio quality than A BEST LIVE

also, I'm OK with the cover, but I'd hoped that she would use that truly CINEMATIC still from sending mail, where the dancers were all around her like "hugging" her. I couldn't find that image anywhere but I remember really loving it

EDIT: found the image from Ayu-Vogue Network

The YouTube preview looks amazing! With all the concerts up on YouTube thanks to corona virus some performances and visuals started to blend together. But this just looks incredible!

I think it would be cool if they put up a curated setlist of her future concerts on YouTube for a few days as promotion.

Here we can see more of Song 4 u itself, as well as Fly High, Happening Here and evolution.


Love the shot at 00:34. This is definitely one of my favourite CDLs!

There will be two digests, one with commentary by ayu and her dancers and one without. They'll premiere in a few hours but here are the links, just in case any of you would like to set a reminder.

With commentary:


Without:

For MIJ/MIT they also did 2CDs. Each live album had 11 songs, so maybe the first CD will have songs from CDL19-20 and the second could have polished audio from TROUBLE Tour 2020. That is, if they recorded the audio. It could also end up being Promised Land's main show and encore.

They showed ayu's fall! They included an audience reaction and you could see ayu shake her head when she tried to get up. When she finally did manage to get up they also showed that, how she stumbled and how she made a painful expression afterwards. Great choice imo.

I'm really curious to know what ayu said! The DVD seems to be great, I can't wait for it! Obviously, her energy was lower there (especially towards the end) but we all know why and I still think it's a great concert.

Actually showing her in pain really added to the performance, it makes it so raw. Plus we know it pretty much affected the rest of the show, especially during the encore so hiding it wouldn't be the best idea, I guess (and there isn't that much they could work with to make it look good). She's so strong.

I love this version of WARNING!

The arrangements and the choir are so good, but can barely stand that recurring cutesy voice and how she changes her voice to a very unnatural and uptight sounding one whenever she screams or singing something like "yeeeah!". I wish she just used her real voice. After that idol days video can't help noticing how fake her voice often is.

Everything seems perfect, the editing, angles. And snowy kiss is breathtaking, I am so glad they showed her struggle with getting up and back on stage. It amplifies the performance so much.
