This is one Kagrra live performance that I love so much because it made me feel so calm and good. I really really really like Sakura~saikai no hana~ a lot in this version and for the fact that it's Isshi's favourite song I can only love it more! ♥ I'm so glad that I bought the Sakura album cos this song is in it. Everytime I listen to the album I feel so beautiful~~~ lol. (//∇//)
Izumi seems to be blocked but he's just behind Akiya. I didn't hear much of the drums though. Acoustic versions probably depended on the guitars much more. I'm certainly very impressed with isshi that he has such a good voice at a young age. I wonder if he has taken any vocal lessons before? haha. And of course, the rest of the members are really good at their instruments. What are they actually? Those boys are already born to be so talented!! I've got nothing bad to say about them. They are greater than my expectations. The more I know about Kagrra, the more I love them. And of course, I will strive to be like them in my way. haha .
All these will bring back those awesome memories again, although I kinda regret not doing screencaps for some lives when I just started on watching them.
It's the 13th anniversary for the Gazette!! And so happens that I'm left with this live to post about Kagrra, so I decided to watch this today. And cos I can watch the Gazette's performance at the same time. haha. Somehow this just reminds me again, that a year has passed, that I haven't been back to listen to the Gazette for a really long time! lol.
The video quality back then is really bad cos they look so blur on screen. But I have to capture this one of isshi~ ↑ (^o^)
The PSC bands that were performing at that time. Seems kinda lesser than the one in 2009.
One thing nice is that fans can write their wishes and hang them on the trees there. That's pretty nice to do before entering the concert hall and enjoy the show. I wonder if the band members do read them at all. =D
Kagrra, is the first band performing for the day! So this time I won't capture the same butterfly pic of the word Kagrra, at the start, but my isshi-sama! ♪~(´ε` )
It's great to see that their pv is shown on the screen!
I noticed isshi is really simple this time! He didn't wear any rings. So this feels kinda strange. Cos I'm an accessories person too. lol.
Is it me or Nao just like to make faces when he's performing on stage? (≧∇≦)
My handsome man..(〃▽〃) ♥
One thing not that pleasant is the lights shining from the stage are far too bright!! Especially when Urei is playing! Gosh hurts the eyes too much. I can't screencap anymore. lol.
Well anyway, because this is supposedly a Kagrra, post so I decided not to say more about the Gazette. Moreover, I don't know any of the 3 songs they performed in here! Totally new to me! Guess I'm not much of a Gazette fan really, plus their songs are really hardcore. Lots of head banging. Not my type so...
Happy Anniversary to the Gazette while I'm listening to Kagrra. songs! hahaha. xD
Since I have already watched most of Kagrra, live performance vids, I guess is time to watch those that Kagrra, attended under their label PSC. But well since I'm so biased towards Kagrra, I would only be focused on watching Kagrra, while I'll just casually listen to the rest of the bands. xD I honestly don't know other bands songs and I don't quite care about that even now. lol.
A photo first of all the band members performing on that day I supposed.
I like it when Isshi said 武道館行きましょう!(^o^) The opening for Kagrra, is indeed nice like this!
Isshi appears with the mask and cloak~~ So cool!
I like the beginning of Utakata which is amazingly good with Akiya's guitar. And they also filmed how nicely Shin is playing the koto. Can't believe I fall in love with this song again. It wasn't the first song that I've heard but in the year 2008 when I got into Kagrra,. I've always have the impression that it was their popular song back then because it's really a beautiful piece. While Shizuku would make me tear. (╥╯θ╰╥) Anyway the meaning and inspiration behind this song is his doggie Vivienne passed away that year.. So I'm having more emotions to this song now that I already know what it's about. It's indeed a touching song..
Now for me, I would love to dedicate this song to Isshi. I would love to sing this song to him so that he understands too.
The opening didn't seem that amazing. (^_^); I don't like the sound quality either, seems like they didn't edit the video for clearer audio quality. And the filming wise the camera is being too shaky. So can I blame on the staff for bad production of this live? lol. Really, even their past lives in the earlier days are better than this one imo. (。-_-。)
I like Sai for that it's a song where you wave your towel along to the song. lol. But then the song was cut right at the start, so this live isn't playing full songs for all too. Blame it on the bad editing! lol. And really, the screencaps I took aren't of the good quality I would like to have. Sobs .
Oops. Sorry isshi, but I really think tight-fitting top doesn't suit you. lol. Oh yeah and you're dressed in all black! =O
Oh gosh Akiya is playing the guitar in a different way that I've never seen before. (・∪・)
Alright, this time I'm also taking screenshots of other members. =D
The light's a bit too bright!!
I noticed there were 2 kotos in the beginning though. (・□・;)
Izumi is smiling while playing the drums!! lol.
Don't u like this isshi-sama pose. haha.
Ohhh the beginning for Kikoku shuushuu is beautiful!! And is that Akiya who appears on that stage playing first? With this guitar??? ↓
At Jusou it's cool that the fire lights up to isshi's direction. I don't really like this song though cos it's kinda creepy. And it's definitely a dark song not that I'll like. lol.
I definitely like this cloak that isshi is wearing here! Okay, now I'm itching to get one. xD
Trying to take more close-up of isshi. (^∇^)
Now isshi U're making me itch to get that same bracelet as you!! lol.
The shirt design is beautiful with the word 珠 at the back! (≧∇≦)
I like Ouka ranman now cos of the Last live I watched last Sunday 08 Feb 12pm, due to the event created by Mexican fans at facebook. [but I wasn't able to watch the link from my phone so I had to watch directly at Youtube] Some past vids are shown on the screen at the back, which definitely brings back memories of how Kagrra, got together and performed throughout the years. And since it was showing on the Last live, it made me feel kinda nostalgic and a little sad to listen to Ouka ranman cos it became a song of old memories. Lol~
And the ending with ありがとう suits isshi for saying to fans at the end of the concert, which only happens for this live as the ending song. I really began to love the pv and the song it's amazing how another song captures my heart now. I'm so enjoying watching Kagrra, lives and trying my best to finish up watching and blogging about them. I've really done what I always wanted to do. (*˙︶˙*)ノ
The song list is mostly from Shu album on that year in which brings me back memories again of the time where I bought this album in 2012, and that it's the only Kagrra, album that I've bought and saved to my phone, so I kept listening to the songs over and over again everytime I'm on the way back home. I remember I had nostalgic moments in my head of Kagrra, but it wasn't that I would do anything for them yet cos I wasn't ready. I just want to have some Kagrra, with me. Yeah, it was quite a plain year for me without achievements, but somehow I slowly got back into Kagrra, starting from the next year..and that is because I always have them in my heart. So I guess all is not lost! ♥
The first album that I happily bought off the shelf and be so proud to declare myself as a Kagrra, fan finally....it's almost like a dream. And that is of course, I believe that some things are just meant to be. (⌒ー⌒)
Let's carry on living a life like that... always the love in our hearts. ♥

I love the opening in this live the most! The music at the video of all those Japanese poetry words. A very beautiful relaxing feeling~~
One thing I don't really like is that the camera switches way too fast and move too much! I'm trying really hard this time to capture some pictures. I think this one of Akiya is a little funny. xD
Shin's screams sounded weird at Hyakki yakou. And I'm really not used to looking Akiya with long hair. Haha.
All the backstage part are shown in black and white in which I don't
really like. Makes me think that they're all wearing black clothes. lol.
I like how Isshi comes up with his own hand movements to Nue no Naku koro. Which is why I like this song in this live. ^_^
Isshi's eyes ヾ(*´∀`*)ノ
It's really beautiful~~ When isshi is humming at the end of the song, I feel that he is with me... His voice really gives me the comfort. ^.^
I like that isshi has his nails beautifully done for this concert. Very nice pose~! (灬ºωº灬)♡
I'm actually looking at Isshi's pants for that word but not at Nao though. Hahahaha. xD
Alright, I still made myself capture Nao instead of just isshi this time. And since it was Nao's birthday yesterday. I took quite some time just to capture this very shot!! Please applaud me. Lol.
Yeah nice shot! Finally I'm not sorry to the rest of the members. =D
Hana is sang beautifully in this live but the video is made blurry with the effect of the flower so I'm not that happy my isshi's face is being blurred. lol. I think it's better in Urei cos they show some shots from the pv. They should probably just do that for all the songs with pvs. haha.
貴女が居て...
Omg isshi's hands look so smooth~!!! (゚O゚)
The best part of Sakura Maichiru Ano oka de is that fans get to sing as much as they can even though it's just two lines. But it's just full of feelings u don't even want the song to end....
Nao actually had a petal in his mouth!! Hahaha. But I saw him took it off.
The ending seems a bit too quiet, in which I don't expect of a concert. At least a 'Thank you' before u go off? Lol. Or maybe this was being cut off from the editor. But anyways, I mind about ending for anything else too. ^_^;
Now time to sleep with isshi-sama's voice with me..♪
