I like the outfit. It's flashy but not over the top.

WARNING CDL15-16 × kanariya CDL16-17 = Rainbow Pride 2018

I do like her look but that one photo indeed makes her look like MC the way it's shot xD I saw a bit of Kuu there too smh when I saw her face! Still, she looks great and nice to hear she sounded good!

I don't think there's anyway they would've been able to make it any better unfortunately. It's rare that huge artists perform there, and they did there best by increasing the guests from 700 to 1000.

People knew she was coming, so people who weren't selected were parked in front of the barriers for hours. And even if people aren't fans, she's still a huge name, so people stopped and tried to see.

It'd have been crazy no matter what unfortunately. It didn't help that she was 30 minutes late either... haha.


As for me, I was really surprised there was no pushing within the barriers.
When I went to the TA Zushi beach AWA event, it was far more aggressive...


She was really sincere in what she was saying, and I felt that it was the realist that I've gotten to see her. It didn't feel like a rehearsed script being repeated over and over like her other MCs. So I was quite touched by her words. And surprised at how good she sounded. Hbya was sung really well.

When I look at the full bunch of pics, my thought is that the photographer is very bad. Even the dancers look weird. If all the pics weren't from the same viewpoint I would even think that Daily stole fans' photos on twitter XD

Thanks for sharing the recording maxikot. She sounded good and we can hear that she truly enjoyed to be there.

I can totally understand since the area was what is was, it wouldn't have been avoided. All I'm saying is that they should have, for example, moved her concert part to the part of the park where people were having picnic and sitting around, more of an open space. The small stage wasn't fitting for a name like her to begin with, hense the whole park paralyzed until she was done hahah.

Here's a mini review:

I went there around 2:30pm to see how crowded it was and it was actually nice. There were some people sitting on chairs and picnic mats but it was okay. I went to walk around and found out that they did a mini goods booth on the parade selling the Defend collaboration, lightstick, towels and other items. I didn't get the numbered ticket so I get back to the area of the concert and i was just 4 people away from the gate. It was 3:00pm. At some point they started to enter the people with numbered tickets and after all the people enter there, the space was not full at all. And I was not sure that there were 1000 people inside the limited area. So they decided to put general people inside but not the people that were there waiting for 2hours or even more, they decided to put people that were near the entrance. And then the shit started. lol The people near me started t get piss off because they were waiting there as well and they weren't given the chance to enter the "limited area". So people started screaming with the Tokyo Rainbow staff. And then the staff decided to get off the people that entered after. And then the shit got uglier. lol Because now the people that entered after everyone else were pissed that they wouldn't be able to stay there and then the securities/staff came to take a men off. Literally 3 guys trying to get this old man off the limited area.

And then 5:00pm. Everyone was crazy about seeing Ayu, screaming her name, doing the "Ayu, ayu, ayu" chant. And then 30min later the show starts. Her entrance was just amazing! The gayest way of entering a stage in a gay parade: being carried in the air by the shirtless dancers lol It was EPIC. Everyone was screaming. And then STEP you! More screaming. I couldn't even listen to her voice during the 3 first songs. I don't know if her mic was not working or the people were singing too loud. But it was really good. And then Curtain Call with the piano and also in the beginning of HBYA she couldn't sing because she started crying. It felt really legit. Her words were really sweet and touching. It was a short concert but really nice experience. It can't be compared to going to her arena concerts (of course) but it was nice.

BUT there were two guys standing next to me that were sooo mean during all the concert. They were reading her to filthy. Even tho they were fans (they sang all the songs - what was a bit annoying because I was hearing them louder than Ayu), they were screaming some weird stuff like "where's your voice?? we can't hear you!! don't sing curtain call!!!". SO RUDE. And also they were mimmicking her vibratto and her lines like "minna de/senkyu/ikkuyo". And everyone was giving them hateful eyes but no one said anything to them. I literally had to ask them to shut up. so so rude.

Other detail: the space was located near a baseball field or something and the wind was crazy so there was a HUGE sand storm. Everyone was just dying while waiting there lol

^ I was wondering what was going on in the back.

In my 200~299 number group, there were at least 15~20 people missing. So I'm assuming there were at least probably 100 people short.

The AWA event also let people in after the initial groups went in, so I had a hunch they'd do the same here. In this case, it would have made way more sense to invite the people waiting for hours...so that's certainly the fault of the staff. But then, whose to say the people by the entrance weren't also waiting for hours. These types of things are kind of a grey area... someone was going to get the short end of the stick either way lol.

Apparently people were trying to sell their numbers on Yahoo auction as well. So that could be a reason for missing people.

The way she was carried in was so fabulous lol.
I was unlucky in that I was at the -perfect- angle that aligned with every tall person when I tried to view Ayu in the middle of the stage lol.


And yes, the dust was crazy. I felt so dirty by the time I got home lol.
