[Koda Kumi] The 204th Thread - 20th Anniversary Tour 2020 MY NAME IS

[kaled kalil]

Girl is late 5 mins... C'mon girl, it's past my bedtime already. Lol

Very sweet of the fans holding multiple lightsticks like they asked.

Guess it's safe to assume the setlist is the tracklist of the album plus additional songs.

Like with re(LIVE) the camera of the stream keeps staying very close to the stage. A bit annoying.
The TV Asahi live stream will probanly be the better one.

And just as I said that we get wide shots and shots of the audience. xD

[kaled kalil]

The interlude is awesome!!!!

The stage is very underwhelming, not gonna lie. I hate when it's just a big screen.

14. Moon Crying

Her voice is amazing!

As I thought with the tracklist, this is more about who she is now. Fits to the concepts she did in recent years.

She had to really fight in the 2nd verse of Moon Crying not to start heavily crying.
Ah, Kuu.

[kaled kalil]

For the ballads there are a few missed notes, but she doesn't have her left earpiece.

Though the sky sounds lovely.

There's a big illuminated KXXK sign hanging from the ceiling before the upper part of the screen now since PARTY.
Eh Yo really fits with its lyrics, respect the past, but don't cling to it.

For Dreaming Now! there are scenes of Kuu dancing and singing in the single jacket outfits on the screen. Never seen those before!

[~StarCatcher~]

Awesome energy again from our Kuueen <3

This show is like a long BEST of Medley.
For the current circumstances it is a great show. The Stylings are perfect. :-)

Did you guys notice the alternate PV for Dreaming Now! on the screen with the second single cover outfit?

[kaled kalil]

Cute video for Lucky Star with the fans dancing.

[Corvina]

Yeah, I also think there are no real props aside from the throne and such a simple stage because of the Covid situation.
Show is great!

[kaled kalil]

I guess from girls on it is the encore? I don't think she's going backstage.

[KuuXAyu-fan]

Awesome show! The venue was packed! Really says a lot about Kuu's fans that they still went to support her despite the pandemic.

[kaled kalil]

She didn't perform CHANCES ALL. ♥

I have mixed thoughts about the concert, to be honest. I even feel a little sad for not enjoying that much because we saw how emotional she was at the end, thanking the support of everyone. It was pretty sweet that she had the credits rolling during walk, it's a very nice way of thanking everyone behind the scenes that made the show and everything.

It's not a bad concert, and I understand the limitations because of the pandemic, but it really lacks creativity with very few highlights here and there, and looks like it was put together at the last minute concept wise. I'll wait for the Asahi footage to judge a little better the concert.

[Corvina]

Producing a tour within a pandemic is one hard thing to do.
I am surprised they didn't even try to flesh out the album concept for the tour like I expected.
But that probably simply wasn't possible.
She never did a tour without any big stunts like her tissue dancing before, it's the first time.
For sure the tour would look much different without Covid.
There also wasn't a message "to be continued" or "see you next live" at the end.
Kuu was so emotional because of the situation and its uncertainty.
She said it herself in her message: She has to do this tour in a totally different environment than usual and within the set rules.

For comparison some other artists haven't even decided yet if they gonna do their concerts at the end of the year like planned e.g. AAA.
And they're even in the same company.

[KarenPang]

I think Kuu could have done an online concert solely just like what other artistes has been doing the last few months

And for fans to still turn up to support her physically , I'm sure she feels really grateful & touched

Also in this aspect , less is more

[minkAYuko]

I enjoyed very much the concert, I see that there's probably another version with better angles? the TV one, I really liked this being so close to ku.

And yeah it seems like a lack luster concert, maybe. Not many props just the big screen but I don't mind either. Maybe as the concert progresses they will add or change things? covid, did messed up things but let's not get upset about this it's not her fault! who knows what would have been different if we weren't were we are now.

The intro was so good!! she looked so good!! and that turn when Universe starts... omg.

I had a lot of fun.

She cried a lot in the end T_T

[thinkingoutloud89]

I prefer the setlist over the album tracklist I think.

[Corvina]

Also saw some stories, the TV version is definitely better!
Hope someone can share this.
Meanwhile there's already a mu-mo rip up made by a member over at wkkw.

[minkAYuko]

Someone on Twitter posted a girl posted that she couldn’t watch the show cause it was raining and the tv signal was messed up. And it was her bday. Poor girl !

[gustavismo]

That's a really unexpected and amazing setlist! And no Ai no Uta!! Have we defeated the evil or will she change the ballads between A or B since she's holding two concerts day? Curious to see if she's going to tweak the tour as she goes along too since she has a lot of time between tour dates. Can't wait to watch it!!
