Ι dont wanna fight with JUNNA, she is gonna scream at me like that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4nBc4zfvRc

What a way to start with a dense belt at the very beginning!

If your earphones were set too high it would be shocking and maybe a little painful, especially on that high note! Take it easy JUNNA! When the vibrato came in it really felt like a rock-style vocal to me.

JUNNA has the range and the power, so why not she use it? The beginnings of the belts were a little wayward and they only settled when she brought in the vibrato. I think she has some work to do on her onsets for high belts.

Kaori is better at doing that sudden belt (though sometimes she also loses control), though hers is less rock than JUNNA's - Emiko also seems to be good at that too. I am more a fan of a smoother onset/warmer tone for belting like Gemie or Mizuki (both of nZK fame).

Listening to Kaori's new song and it's musical elements, I contrasted it to JUNNA's Kajiura song, the sea and a pearl, in terms of that song's use of strings, having a guitar solo, and having a dramatic bridge, alternative melodies, and a much faster tempo.

Listening to her "Here" song (new version) a few minutes ago, I thought that JUNNA actually has a mournful timbre in her voice. In my mind I thought of her as an "alto-Wakana" in terms of that sad feel. I don't think of bright/happy when I think I think of JUNNA's voice, there's always an underlying melancholy (like she's crying inside).

Even in the way she presents herself and carries herself when singing, yes her style is intense and she belts, but with her use of cry, and the appeal/feel in her voice, it does touch the feelings in a slightly sad way.

Maybe I need to find a sunny/summer-style song that she's sang to see if there's a difference in her underlying timbre.

With all the divas

Kaori-san, Joelle-san, Kaida-san, Reia-san, each one with a unique, unparalleled voice.Yet, when they come together, it’s so breathtakingly beautiful it gives me chills. I was thrilled to blend my voice with such wonderful harmonies this time as well.I hope we can sing together again. Much love.#YKL21

JUNNA needs to look at the camera more. Seems like she's looking at herself in the photo instead, while the divas are looking at the phone camera instead (except Yuriko ).

#JCYT2025 For the Tokyo performance, we received flowers from YukiKajiura

Yuki Kajiura, who connected me with ASCA-chan.

The words and melodies entrusted to me by Kajiura-san always guide me toward the light. They give me the courage to take the first step.

Thank you always. And please, continue to guide me in the future ❤︎

#JCYT2025 東京公演に、梶浦由記さんからお花をいただきました

ASCAちゃんと私を繋げてくださった梶浦さん。

梶浦さんが託してくださる言葉やメロディはいつも私を明るい方へ導いてくれる。歩き出す勇気をくれる。

いつもありがとうございます。そして、これからもよろしくお願いしますっ❤︎

~ This is beautiful! ~

^ ASCA is with SACRA and JUNNA with Flying Dog if im not mistaken so it should be a good legal puzzle with all the various rights to the music, and surely they cant release the live later similar to what happened to REVO's performance in KajiFes
