I don't have any recollection of those artists in her lineup lol. I checked out the other artists for the Sunday lineup, would have liked to listen to Nami Tamaki's Gundam SEED songs. But I wish May'n had new anime songs for popular series.

And is Hololive really that popular enough to get the whole Saturday slot? Is it just going to be a screen with talking cartoons? I'm thinking that could get boring fast.

For the concerts in Japan, were you able to buy from Japanese websites easily? Or would it be better if I have somebody already in Japan buy it for me?

 

Better to get someone to buy for you the ticket cause most of the sites cater to Japanese only (meaning they will send the tickets to an address in Japan) My first few concerts was a hassle, we flew there a few days earlier and tried to buy it (not all ticket machines at convenient stores are standard  - different concert organizers have different machines ) and then the language barrier (our Nihon-go is at tourist level....). 

Recently, they have those concerts that are catered to International audience - pay to view (just make sure your country is not in the banned list) - Macross F revenge concert

There are pros and cons viewing a LIVE concert. 

Pro Nothing beats being there - going crazy with all the fans!  Proper venue and good seats

Con : Bad venue - the concert hall is flat and some 6 foot guy is in front of you! 

Alternatively some concerts can be view in Cinemas (same concept as pay to view but broadcast only in Japan)

Thanks! I have some people in mind (ex-coworkers) who are in Japan. Though only a few I think have good Japanese-language skills.

This one! I went to AFA once and there were not one but TWO big guys in front of me! Haven't had the motivation to go to another AFA since then.

We were supposed to drive to AFASG 2023 but my friend forgot to submit his vehicle permit to enter Singapore 7 days before the actual date and we had to do a last

minute booking for a bus. I wanted to wait awhile before posting as there might be some late posting but the sudden change in the plans made this late.

AFASG 2023 – this year there's no interviews (I had some interesting ones to ask May'n). This year other than the usual exhibits, a record number of guest cosplayers, there's also an all female wrestling event and we even got to try out the new Macross game - Shooting Insight. Bushiroad card game introduced ULTRAMAN! (there was a giant half torso of the kaiju Gomorrah at the lower floor) A demo on the AKIBA stage and it was good (better than the female wrestles – in my opinion) You can view the full show here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=plK9QZxoB8E

AFASG 2023 concert Day 1

 

Surprisingly, all sections in the concert hall was seated (usually the last section is FREE standing) The first Artist that day was Asterism – an all instrumental band. Next was 'Liyuu' – a Chinese singer and cosplayer (signed on with HoriPro). Surprisingly this year's the audio was good!

NANO returns to AFASG after 8 years. Normally no video recording is allowed but she called out to the audience to record her performance and share it! Wow! Breaking the rules. For her last song she invited 4 members of the audience to join her on stage and rock with her. Another first on AFASG! May'n has competition!

Next, we have Tatsuya Kitani with band. The setup took awhile. His songs are not bad but has the distinct feel of ending abruptly....

Next which is a surprise was May'n! Usually she's last act for the day. It was quite a surprise – which others in the audience was surprised also (later met the Managing director of AFASG and he explained the setup of the bands were going longer than expected and a change in the line up)

May'n appeared with her dances and the first song for the day was 'Brain Diver'. First half was off key but eventually got back into the right one. Next was 'Get into the Abbysmare (May'n ver.)' – nicely presented. Next song was Orange. Then came the all time favourite – Diamond Crevasse! Man, I felt the tears swelling up in my eyes. I must have heard it a thousand times but it still has that effect whenever she sings it! Next she sang GLORY! She enlisted the audience's help to sing the backup part – Rise up! Rise up! We got to be the TOP of the World!

Graphite Diamond came next, another nice song and the last song which I hoped very much that she'll sing – LIES GOES ON! (OP from LIAR! LIAR!).May'n sync her movements with her 4 dancers while singing. Obviously she doing a tone down version because she's holding the microphone in one hand. I think it would have been more fun if she's using a headset mic, leaving her hands free to do the full version of the dance.

She thanked everyone and waved goodnight.

Next up is Survive! Said the Prophet. Another wait to setup the music instruments and the band began to rock! After one song....Surprise! NANO is called back on stage and she sang with the lead vocal of the group. After another few songs, my member decided to check the time (the concert is running really late) and found out that it has passed 11.20pm. We quickly grabbed our stuff and left the ongoing concert because the subway closes at 12.00pm! We managed to catch one train but then needed to change to another line. We just missed the last train by mere seconds.....But lucky for us it was just one station away.

Later in May'n posted - she commented that it was really hot under the stage lights (sitting down) + Christmas decor at Changi airport
