Here’s to hoping this hoochie snatches all our weaves this winter with a totally over the top miraculous snow globe of a winter ballad release. Like go on honey, fart snowflakes - the whole shabang.

If that guy was covered in KK merchandise, wearing JAPONESQUE long sleeve t-shirt and said “Koda Kumi Forever“ then yes, it was me. lol Did you say:”oh it’s the same t-shirt”? I wanted to stop by & chat but it was a crazy day for me and I was in a big rush.

I’ll now be in Osaka for 2 additional days due to the typhoon. My Japanese friend told me that there’s a Koda Kumi themed party at JACK IN THE BOX club tonight at 9pm. I might go check it out.

^ yeah that was me. I was in a hurry too, no worries.

I dropped of my present this morning, hope she gets it. The que was long, it kinda made me sad I couldn’t attend in the end.

edit: she posted todays presents and mine wasn’t there

Sad to hear the news for the cancelled date.

It seems that the recording for today happen as planned (https://www.instagram.com/p/B3kRXdipVni/ https://www.instagram.com/p/B3kIveBgwNS/ ) you can see cameras here and there, and that "line" in front of the stage, for the camera to go from side to side I imagine.

No news reports yet. Maybe they'll wait for the end of the tour to do the reports and all.

That really sucks I'm sure they don't post all of them. Since there was a cancelled concert, a lot of people probably gave gifts that were planning to go and they just chose a selection quickly to take a photo of. She'll definitely get it since it was a specified box.

So sorry about the cancelled concert, that sounds so terrible ):

---

Edit: Just read about STRIP coming out this Wednesday. Since it's less than a month now for the album (WHERE ARE THE COVERS GIRL??) I'm seriously thinking of not listening to it until the whole thing comes out. I already got bored of Eh Yo and DO ME, OMG is going down the same route, Summer Time never really clicked to me... Just GOLDFINGER and Put Your Hands Up! still sounds fresh to me tbh. I'm afraid I'll be already over this album when it comes out

STRIP IS A FUCKING BOP TBH hold out if you can...I still can’t deal with how gorgeous she looked in the dual-JAPONESQUE-Kumi vid they played during the song at the concert. And for the scenes where she’s in a box, the outfit looks almost identical to the nude dress with sparkles that she wore during Dance In The Rain at the WOML tour.

@thinking I’m so, so sorry you didn’t get a chance to go. Hope the rest of your trip is filled with awesome an fun fun experiences!

STRIP's cover:



That font and color choice... Omg haha

@Gustavopc this is what happened to me during TRICK's release. She was playing all the songs that were interesting during her OH MY RADIO show and, when the album was out, I didn't care about the rest of the album. I would recommend to not overplay them, if possible.

I know this is on Baidu, but there's actually no cover out yet on her FCs. So I guess this is fanmade?
But probably not going to be so different in the end, rofl.

The 2nd part of the big 20th anniversary survey started on the Japanese Koda Gumi.
It covers the middle part of her career, BUT single till Love Me Back single (or Kingdom till JAPONESQUE for albums, 2008 - 2012).
Questions are a bit different this time:
- a song that brightens your mood?
- a song you wanna hear live?
- a song you wanna listen to when in love?
- the song you sing the most often at Karaoke?
- a song you recommend to somebody who doesn't know her?
- your favourite PV?
- your favourite cover?

Survey ends October 20.

Wohoo, just like the CDL last year, they've decided to live stream the two final shows of re(LIVE) tour!

Info
https://rhythmzone.net/koda/news/detail.php?id=1077561

Live stream site
https://koda.relive.mu-mo.net/

1 day costs 2,700 Yen, both days 5,000 Yen.

-----------------------------

Also, general sale for JAPONESQUE re(CUT) in November started.
Tickets are also available from overseas with an English site!

You can also re(WATCH) the performances later.

Black Cherry performance  10/25 (Fri) 12:00 (noon) ~ 10/27 (Sun) 23:59
JAPONESQUE performance  10/26 (Sat) 12:00 (noon) ~ 10/28 (Mon) 23:59

I'm not so sure I'll be able to record the concert this time around. To watch both dates you pay almost the same price for the CD+Blu-ray version of re(CORD), and even for a single concert it's even more expensive than the CDL. If someone gets it and is willing to share, I could record it. lol

I like the 3 different looks Kuu has in STRIP -Otona no Tsuchi Drama Rika edit- PV preview

But seeing her rap in the 2 kimonos get up against herself felt a bit strange to me

I don't know what to think about STRIP preview for now . I will have a better opinion of it once I hear the full song

Couldn't resist cause of the positive feedback on the song/video and I FREAKING LOOOOOVE IT, sounds so polished and the bridge pre-chorus is so good. Can't wait for the full thing!

Interesting that they share the interlude movie as promo for the tie-in. They make it clear in title and description though.

STRIP is a very interesting song, great sensual instrumental and atmosphere. Really like it cause the song takes its time to unfold (Kuu's rap, too).

It costs the same as the CDL if you buy both concerts though.
Making the single ones 200 Yen more expensive is a simple business decision as they want people to watch both. But 200 Yen is not much anyway.

And we don't know yet how they will release re(LIVE) on DVD. Might be they sell both concerts seperately while also offering a bundle of both...

^ I know.

STRIP is great! The rap part doesn't bother me and the pre chorus and chorus are so good. I wish all these singles had instrumentals available as well, just like HUSH / LIT / NEVER ENOUGH.
