Here's the full H&M photoshoot!
(10 big pictures under the spoiler)

Spoiler:











I'll be going to the Final Space exhibit today so I'm quite excited!
Praying to the gods I'll be able to get the Best Fiction magnet from the gacha.

And since Hulu Japan is finally not blocked for me since I'm actually here lmao, I'll try to rip all the Hulu documentary episodes if I can. Fingers crossed!

Also, here's the Namie Tenjin Bus in person! Looks amazing!

Just came back from the Final Space exhibit! It was incredible to see all her dresses and outfits so up close!

The new animation for Dr. was also really nice!! Dr Chronos had a new design, as well as the Namie clone. It's not a music video or anything, but I really hope they release it after the exhibit is over. It'd be a shame if it were never to be seen again.

I was really expecting a grand "final room"... since all this time before the exhibit opened they wouldn't reveal what was at the end of the Tokyo exhibit... but there was no final room lmao. The end was just that giant Imoto Ayako picture that you can take a picture with lmao. #disappointed

I bought the photobook, and 10 gachas. No Best Fiction for me, unfortunately, but I did get PLAY, WMWM and the 60s70s80s magnet so I'm happy with those! The photobook is heavy AF by the way. It was the only thing in my backpack today and it HURT carrying it around lmaoo. Had to drop by my hotel just to drop it off lmao.

Spoiler:


On a side note, after going to the exhibit, I am extremely disappointed that there's no bluray PV collection being released!! The montage they showed as part of the exhibit went through her videos and tour clips... and all the music videos shown (including all her old ones) were CRYSTAL CLEAR and SO high def!! She could release a 4k collection with that quality!!

(I was also happy to see Brighter Day in the montage lmao. Lord knows she paid it dust on Finally lool)

---

Unrelated to Final Space, I had heard that the H&M in Shibuya put up gigantic poster/billboards for the Namie collection already so I went and snapped some pictures! (Also saw billboards for Kuu's DNA nearby lol)

So. it's just a small video or what? I thought they'd release a new version of the trilogy featuring the new character design but from you fanaccount I guess I'm wrong.

So upon entering the exhibit, you'll be in this room:
Spoiler:


The new animation plays with Dr. Chronos telling the Namie clone to go back in time to complete the "Final Space". It leads into seeing Namie with the mirror dress from the promos and she'll walk off as you're welcomed into the "Final Space". This whole part is definitely pretty short. It lasts as long as like... the first 1/3 of "Dr." (the song) lol.

You'll then walk through this pulsating light tunnel to move onto the next area where you'll see Namie in her mirror dress swiping through all these digital boxes, going through her entire career via a montage of her music videos and tour clips. You'll see 14 year old Namie being interviewed all the way to the Finally Tour. At the very end, all the videos will absorb into Namie's mirror dress and she transforms into the white dress Namie who smiles and wishes that "music fill your wonderful life". It's basically a long extended version of the exhibit promo:

Man, The Final Space sounds so epic!

I am definitely pinning my hopes on Avex releasing that Blu-ray collection!

I really wonder is she not going to make one last appearance before her retirement? She could do somethingggggg in the month that's left. I don't want to think that all that's left is the DVD to be released and then that's it...

It's sad the Best came so early in her last year, I already miss Namie's music, I really wished she would release a final album or something but I guess that's it :/

It feels a bit odd that Finally & the final tour were both done months in advance before Namie officially retreat from the public limelight next month

And if it's true Namie will not do 1 more final concert if not a final TV appearance before 16th Sept , then in a way it's sad cos for her to supposedly bow out of the industry with a Final Space exhibition alongside numerous magazines covers + her H&M endorsement , that doesn't felt substantial enough to me

It would have been nice if Namie perform at MUSIC STATION Ultra FES 2018 next month but sadly that will take place 1 day after her retirement date z_z

I know for concert and non concert goods , Namie has already put out so many of them in many different forms over the past few months but music wise , I'm sure avex could release so much rare Namie audio & footages , people wouldn't hesitate to pay and get their hands on

Literally she is lying on her bed right after her Tokyo final show. Even her appearance in the entertainment show was recorded when she was in Taipei.

Thanks for the info and pictures haraiso! It's too bad about the final room. They built up all this mystery surrounding it and it's underwhelming. I know there is a lot of popularity with comedians in Japan but having Imoto pushed in my face is getting annoying.

The video in the opening sounds cool, hope it will be uploaded to the web once the showcase is over.
