2020.12.25 13:22		Ah she's so adorable! ♥ I had this live but very low quality, so thank you! I love the remix ♥♥
2020.12.25 13:10		Ah her physique is good enough, if she gets any skinnier she'll disappear >.< I miss her chubby cheeks lol. Anyway, thanks for the scans and thanks Corvina @ AHS for the translation.
2020.12.25 13:08		Thank you so much!! I had never even known about this live before, I'm so happy to be able to see it. Thank you LiDaYu, and have a Merry Christmas and happy New Year! ♥
2020.12.14 10:25		Lucky LiDaYu ;___; That's amazing...
2020.12.13 14:53		It was really a good performance. I was so happy she sang RUN. I hope it becomes the hit it deserves to be.
2020.12.13 14:52		Nice! I created the section for her dancers on generasia because they're honestly some of the best backup dancers I've ever seen. UG, Kaichou, Fuko and OOBA have always been top favorites of mine.
2020.12.08 10:08		Could someone give me the gist of what her and her dancers were saying during the surprise? I really want to understand what she was talking about, I'm not fluent :(
2020.12.08 08:54		I thought it was really cool that they re-aired her first tour/concert series. <3 Even though she was a little rough around the edges as a performer, she had the energy and excitement. Secret is always a treat to watch.
2020.12.07 12:56		She looks so gorgeous and radiantly happy <3 Looks like she had high energy for her 20th anniversary. Did she perform any of her new songs?
2020.12.06 15:02		More importantly, is anyone recording today's??
2020.12.06 14:42		I missed it, I'm so sorry TT___TT;; I slept through it... LiDaYu, did you happen to record it?
2020.12.03 18:12		I'm just glad to be able to see them at all! I was really bummed when I was about to preorder then waited a few days and poof ;_; the photoshoot was stunning. Thanks so much.
2020.12.02 18:57		Wow, you! It feels like that's been out of live rotation for a little while. Can't wait to watch, I forgot all about Innocent Starter. >.<"
2020.12.02 04:52		I've seen Cherry Girl, but none of the others because her parts aren't so big. I have Cutie Honey and Ikemen Desu ne sounds right up my alley though lmao, so I guess I'll be watching these in the lead-up to her anniversary <3
2020.12.01 03:54		Aww I love this!
2020.11.29 18:47		>w< TRICK Tour!!! Seriously, these are all pretty rare and I was very close to buying the Dejavu one off of eBay, but it looks like I can hold off until I have more money <3 Tysm. Never even seen the Second Session one before =O
2020.11.29 18:45		Oh that's okay lol, I thought I solved the mystery! I would have bought that pamphlet if it contained all these photos <333
2020.11.29 08:14		Wait, were these all from the WOML pamphlet??
2020.11.29 08:07		You and Kaled are spoiling us lol!! (but thanks!) I can't wait for the next update! The floral deco being put on for Gentle Words, the photo from the intimate 24, and watching the playback of Selfish... ♥ So many memories
2020.11.29 07:59		Uwah, where did all these beautiful shots come from?! BTS of literally all of her first singles?? If I had anything to contribute, I would, but I have never seen these pictures. She's so adorably happy in the picture for affection and love across the ocean ♥ Thank you x3 LiDaYu
2020.11.29 07:57		Update: I commissioned a translation of the lyrics and I was sobbing as I read along to the PV. The stuff I missed from my basic understanding of Japanese was just... incredible. It's such a personal song but also, for the people who have depression or something similar, it's so relatable. I'm going to listen to this whenever I need a boost ♥
2020.11.27 14:59		Argh and now mu-mo is not letting me log in to buy the tickets >.<;;
2020.11.27 00:33		^ Omg I really love Heartless, but yeah, RUN is pretty amazing. So much emotion. And I totally agree - I hope we see this on more than just the current/next tours. It could stand strong on its own or easily become part of the ballad medleys we've come to expect.
2020.11.26 20:53		Like every other song, I really love it! It's quite a memorable ballad. Also, it may have been simple but I think the production was much higher than that of Killer monsteR. Filming in a tank with all that billowing fabric can't have been simple! All in all, I really can't wait for next week <3
2020.11.26 20:35		Wonderful! Once again I was having a hard time finding a lot of these scans (W FACE especially), so thanks very much!
2020.11.26 20:34		Ah okay :) I still want to watch it live, so I'll be watching Saturday's I guess. Also, lucky you! I would love to make it to Japan someday to see her live. I kicked myself for missing her when she went to Hawaii.
2020.11.26 20:32		Not lovin' that skirt lol, but it's good to see her in a magazine again! Thanks for the scans <3
2020.11.25 07:06		^ Yeah! I was gonna do both lol, but why don't I do the 5th and share that one? Is OBS good for recording, or do you know of a better program?
2020.11.24 17:13		Oh hell yeah! I always feel like she's got extra energy toward the end of a tour. Probably gonna buy the after-talk also <3
2020.11.22 05:21		I'm with imverio, I'm not fluent and Kuu-chan is usually too fast for me to understand also lol. If anyone can sum up some things that'd be cool!
2020.11.20 19:35		Oh wow, I had no idea she did that much. =O I know she herself wears a lot of color contacts, so it makes sense though.
2020.11.20 19:33		Lol I set an alarm on my phone for the video and ran to the breakroom to watch. First time I caught a debut of her PV! I'm just gonna say what I said in the shoutbox and on YouTube: I liked it. I think the down parts of the song don't need so much autotune, but it's good. The video is intriguing, colorful and the dance is great. I got serious MAIKO or Fuko choreography vibes. But I'm wondering about that mask at 2:40 minute mark. Very cyberpunk at a time when cyberpunk is very popular. SUPER DUPER K, indeed!
2020.11.19 16:21		Didn't realize there was such a market for color contacts! Isn't this her second or third Lovell campaign? Very interesting. I love WORK IT! so far, I'm a sucker for her electropop songs.
2020.11.19 02:21		Phew! That's a lot of uploading. Thank you for the scans, I couldn't find non-fanclub scans of re(CORD) anywhere. I appreciate your work!
2020.11.19 02:19		That was a cute and sweet story! Thanks so much LiDaYu, I really appreciate you taking the time to do this <333
2020.11.18 13:01		Very excited she added a CDL!! I hope they do a broadcast of it or something >w< As for FNS... I feel like either debuting a never-heard song from the album OR singing XXKK would be an obvious choice, but a small two-song medley with one of her new ballads would be nice.
2020.11.18 12:55		Oh so cool! They drew Kuu in anime style~ Reminds me of when Namie got turned into a Vocaloid. It seems like this group is fairly new. Seems interesting, and the song has a good beat.
2020.11.16 03:05		And as always, thanks for keeping us so up-to-date, LiDaYu :)
2020.11.16 03:03		I ended up missing out on the FC because I had to wait two days and it was two days too late (!), so I'll be getting angeL + monsteR on DVD sigh. These were some gorgeous PVs worthy of Blu-ray... Getting hyped though! I'm Lovin' is already a new favorite of mine.
2020.11.16 02:59		Heh... that beautiful multicolor pouch was sold out the day it came out TT___TT So unfair. A lot of FC stuff ends up bought by people who sell them on eBay for inflated prices... The Lego-like figurines are cute! I was pleasantly surprised to see that particular FANTASIA outfit, epitome of cute. I'm going to try to get the facemask and lipbalm though.
2020.11.13 17:20		P.S. I hope I didn't come off sounding rude, it's just been hard to get used to Kuu's style change since about WOML for me, and I got excited hearing tracks that sounded like stuff from her TABOO--Summer Trip era. I still love her new stuff, but I'm a nostalgic person lol. I didn't mean to imply she isn't genuine, it's just American influence in global music has been so rampant the past few years, and the reason I got into J-Pop was because it was so vastly different from American music lol.
2020.11.13 17:15		AMAZING. It feels like older Kuu, and as though she's NOT trying to sound American. It's got such a unique, genuine feel that I haven't heard since like UNIVERSE, JAPONESQUE... I'm really happy. Alarm, I'm lovin', all of the ballads... even Killer Monster and WORK IT. WORK IT reminds me a bit of Lay Down. I can't wait for the albums to drop!! (also, that neon coin purse is sooo cute!)
2020.10.30 17:00		Awesome! Lol we now have three "work" songs - Work It Out!, Work That, and WORK IT! Anyway, I'm glad we're getting all this news and teasers; with all this promotion and 20th anniversary hype, I hope she can make #1 on the charts with this release!!!
2020.10.30 14:56		I think the FC editions already sold out, but I can't tell. Their listings were removed from Koda Gumi, but they aren't showing up at the end as "SOLD OUT".
2020.10.30 14:46		I hate to go off-topic but was anyone able to nab the Halloween wallpaper from Koda Gumi? I'm getting some weird error message "2020/10/30(JST) Customers do not have a delivery models for your use this content."
2020.10.30 14:45		It's simply gorgeous! I agree with sodiumamytal, it sounds very much like Heartless, a very emotional and somewhat empowering ballad. Also, the continuing visual aesthetic of dark black contrasted by vibrant neon colors is nice to see. It's very beautiful. I wonder if the PV will be underwater, it kind of looks that way!
2020.10.30 02:59		I think it's gonna be like something off DNA. For monsteR, though, I hope we see more songs like OUTTA MY HEAD, Work That, and Pin Drop. While I like her sexy/aggressive songs and cute stuff, she's also a master at that weird middle ground of sexy electropop and dance numbers. I've been hooked on those kinds of releases since UNIVERSE, and hope that maybe this will fall into the middle ground. I'm just glad Kuu's able to give us another look (maybe even a drop!) before the albums come out <3 Thanks for sharing! (that bottom pic is my new wallpaper lol)
2020.10.30 02:49		Oh, cute names! Sky <3 Thanks, LiDaYu ^.^
2020.10.28 03:18		I think the video was amazing for being done completely from home. It's probably one of my favorite PVs in recent years <3
2020.10.28 03:16		@Kaled Kalil So was "the meaning of peace". It would be interesting if this appears on angeL + monsteR, or a later compilation like song+nation.
2020.10.28 03:05		What is her dog's name? I only ever knew Rum :(
2020.10.28 02:11		I've seen that! It was really cool. But I think an official recorded collaboration would be great. LiSA is very much at the top of her game with Leo-NINE (I think she's breaking records!), and a duet would certainly explode the Oricon charts <3
2020.10.28 02:10		Ah! Amazing! I'm so happy for her, I don't care if it's a singing cameo or whatever. I actually only JUST saw the Cherry Girl movie a few months ago, when I binged a bunch of Kuu videos during quarantine. I really loved it, even though it was corny, because she's always so fun to watch - a lot of her on-stage and interlude-movie personality translated into her acting, and I loved it. She's a very high-energy performer, and it shows in her acting too. Whatever the role, however big it is, I'm just happy for her and excited to watch!
2020.10.20 18:01		Kuu is Kuueen! She may be number twenty, but she'll always have our support as number one ^.^
2020.10.20 17:58		How exciting! Kuu always collaborates with cool people. Lovin' that they're anime bishounen xD The fact that she's the only female voice reminds me of her WON'T BE LONG collab with EXILE way back in the day. I wonder if the song will be on either monsteR or Angel?
2020.10.20 17:54		Omg, I love LiSA too! It's so cool to know that they're friends!!! I'd love to see them do a duet someday soon!
2020.10.20 17:53		Uwah, I love the idea of Kuu playing video games! She's definitely the good mom I always assumed she'd be. Her son has to be, what, 8 years old already?! Crazy how time flies!
2020.10.13 17:05		Also dangit, HMV won't deliver outside of Japan. I want clear files of those beautiful covers TT__TT I can't afford the fanclub fees...
2020.10.13 16:53		Very excited! Just wish she would release it as one album, it's so expensive having to buy them separately...
2020.10.01 15:14		Thanks! It'll be nice to see it another way, and hear her pre-show talk
2020.10.01 15:13		Thank you so much! I can't wait to see another live. Theyre more infrequent this year so I'm grateful for what we DO see. And I always love a Butterfly live <3
2020.09.15 01:18		I'm glad she's gotten such wide coverage! It wasn't her best performance but considering all the complications of COVID upon the entertainment industry, and the precautions necessary to be able to put on a show, it was quite a feat. I really hate that her twentieth anniversary happened upon this year, but she made the most out of it, and it's great that many outlets have noticed. :)
2020.09.15 01:09		Will give this a look, hopefully it doesn't have that top text like the asashi version. I wanted to make some GIFs but that text in the top left was annoying... Thanks for sharing by the way! It's so hard to get into Jpopsuki
2020.09.14 00:46		Oh my gosh, thank you so much!! I'm just about to settle down and watch it for the evening, so you made my night with this higher quality! <3
2020.09.13 08:48		Uwah, she wore the XXKK outfit! That was probably my favorite part of the video/song lol. She looks gorgeous as always. Loving the flower veil look, it's very serene. I'm guessing it was during the MOON CRYING--Through the sky bit. Thanks for posting!
2020.09.13 08:44		Lol, can't download it as there's too much traffic, but I will watch it hopefully later today. I'm really glad she changed up the tracklist. A 20th anniversary without milestones like TAKE BACK, TABOO and real Emotion - even if it's in a medley - wouldn't feel very much like a 20th anniversary show, as I was talking about below. I'm also super happy she finally performed "GOT ME GOING". It's probably the newest song in the recent years that I'm most addicted to. "BASSLINE" is also a favorite of mine as it harkens back to lounge songs like MORE. I'm kinda mad at myself for not watching it live, but it WAS at midnight my time lol. Thank you for sharing, I can't wait to watch!
2020.09.12 03:10		I'm disappointed too :( This is her TWENTIETH anniversary. This is huge. I was eagerly awaiting the release of this, but... yeah, it's all music from 2014-- on, with a few exceptions. I feel like it's avex meddling, due to the fact that her sales have been on the decline since AND. Which is again avex's fault, since they haven't given her the budget to make as many PVs or physical singles. So I think avex is trying to get people re-interested in her recent releases... I don't like it. It should be a celebration of her career. This doesn't feel like something Kuu would put together. For one thing, where's TAKE BACK? She always gives her proper dues to the debut single. And real Emotion? That was groundbreaking for her. CUTIE HONEY was also a career boost, and she's said she owes a lot to that cover for being where she is today. Ai no Uta is one of the best J-Pop love songs of the 2000s, and Moon Crying too. Where are they? FANTASIA was very diverse, even THE ARTIST, which I wasn't that psyched about, contained pivotal and beloved music. 20th anniversary feels like Kumi sticking to rebranding herself and forgetting 2000-2014. I also agree with sodium about the DVD, though I think it's almost all misses. Hurry Up! from TRICK was easily one of the best feats she's ever done at a live show, I can't even remember stay with me. And yeah, the drum performance of No Man's Land (so underrated a song btw) is burned into my memory. So Nice was a very dull start to that show, she couldn't even walk... And I think It's All Love! never gets the attention it deserves - her performance with misono at FANTASIA was insane fun. Overall I think the FC lost out with this one. I'm nervous about the concert now, too, and I don't think I'll be attending the online show.
2020.09.07 20:30		That was a great show! I love how, because there was really no audience, it felt like a very personal concert and she kept performing right at the camera for us! It was so cool.
2020.09.07 20:28		I hope someone will subtitle these special lives, especially Secret! It was a great first concert of hers, I would love to hear her thoughts, though, about her past self and performances, but I'm unable to keep up with her speaking voice >.< And I'm not fluent in Japanese anyway lol. Do you think someone at JPop Suki might subtitle them?
2020.09.07 20:26		<3 I'm always glad to hear IS THIS TRAP? live, it's such a fun song and one of my favorites of her pop anthems. I also agree on the price, however... It's her 20th anniversary, this would be the album to go all-out and do like, a gift basket of goodies for the album!
2020.09.07 20:22		Oh my god!!! This is fantastic news! I have never been to Japan, let alone able to see Kuu live, but I'll be able to see her concert the same time as everyone else?! This is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing how to do it~<3
2020.09.06 16:22		Wow, I guess there was never a feud between them, or it ended a few years ago? That's good to hear :)
2020.09.06 15:06		Is 9.3 derived from the characters in her name?
2020.09.06 15:04		Am I the only one who isn't a fan of her rapping/trap-style songs like this? :( I like the parts where she breaks for a softer sound, and the music video is to die for, but I feel like Kuu doesn't need to adopt this American-rap style. :( I'll give it several more listens and see if I warm up to it, though.
2020.09.03 08:25		There's so many! The light stick, t-shirt and facemask (hello to a fun mask to wear lol) would all be nice to have. I don't have any concert goods (!) and goods from a milestone event in her career would be nice <3
2020.09.03 08:22		Oh my gosh, thank you for sharing!! I feel like it's been so long since she's sung TABOO and 1000 no Kotoba in full during a live show, it will be good to hear them again!
2020.09.03 08:21		I would love that KUMIXX one! I never thought about getting a Kuu tattoo before - a real one... Hmm. Lol!
