Yes! I hope she will do like a stadium concert for her 20th Anniversary.

I think there was also someone who said they didn't win one for an Arena Tour, iirc it was Cirque de Minuit, but i don't remember very well ^^

I kinda miss Ayu performing in Bigger venues. She suits arenas really well and I honestly think she's still far from not being able to sell seats because whenever Ayu got an upcoming show you'll still see people looking for tickets especially in twitter.

She can do like a Premium Showcase tour where less dates but bigger props. <3

^I don't think her decision to tour halls has anything to do with her ability of selling enough tickets for an arena... In the end of the day this tour DID start with 9 arena dates and she did just fine.

IMO it's more of a schedule conflict due to the Olympic Game repairs + the possibility of touring places without a venue that big.

Agree on that, she travels to so much places and cities she like never goes too. Yeah there was 2 TA Tours, but this tour now is for everyone.
The venue problem should be mainly present in the Tokyo Area, so I don´t think that is the reason. I rly think she wants to reach more ppl in different part of the country on the way to her 20th Anniversary celebration.

Still can't believe I finally got to see Ayu in person... definitely a dream come true

However, while the whole show was full of energy and emotions (she must've cried at least 5 times), her voice was extremely worn out. She pretty much screamed through the entire show, and by the end she sounded extremely hoarse even if she's just talking or laughing (almost lost her voice doing so).

I felt really bad for her but I definitely still had an amazing time - it makes a world of difference when you are actually there hearing her sing all these songs you grew up with in person :')

I guess it's too many shows in a short period for her. Good that you had a great time though!

So happy you got to go! I love it when people get to go for the first time, knowing how absolutely amazing mine was. Did you cry? Lol, I melted down at the end of my first time.

Speaking of crying, yeah ayu cries a lot during the show, but much of it is part of the theatrics. For example, in Last minute, she stopped singing and just sat there and “cried” at the exact same part during both shows I went to, and resumed singing in the same spot too.

Also I forgot to mention that I think Timmy gets to improvise slightly during the portion where he comes on stage and his cane is somewhat controlling him. Like the first time I saw him he kept calling it his “sexy” stick, and he pointed to me with it and said “are you a bad boy??” Lmao. Then when it’s like stuck on the stage and he’s trying to pull it back out, during the New Years show he said “Fuck it.” and I died, lol. The show on January 5th he didn’t say that.

I applied over 5 concerts in 2015 and won no tickets, this time I applied for 5 and got 3. I'm hoping I get close once, even if it's further for the other two dates

It's so cold in Japan right now, hopefully her voice is gonna hold

You never thought about this before? For sure in some songs she cried for real but most of them she's acting. This don't surprises me anymore haha

Hope her voice gets better!

Once you are on a stage you are acting. What doesn't really mean she isn't feeling those stuff for real, as one does while acting.

I only think she is crying for reals when she goes into ugly-crying like untitled ~ for her

^ I don't know what you guys think but her crying at the end of Walk during countdown live 2014-2015 seemed genuine to me, but yeah most of the time now she fakes it, i don't know what to think of it actually.
