"Kalafina Arena LIVE 2016" September 10-11 (Kobe World Memorial), 16-17 (Budokan)

the hd video is also available on vk. I also changed my mind about the kimono. they looked great in them. Keiko with her hair all in her back makes her looked even more beautiful like an actual hime. my favorite moment of this concert aside of Alleluia is the way Keiko twirled and they took a shot of her from above before the second chorus of Hoshi no Utai <3
 
Guys, I have been replaying into the world 80 times already in the previous days.
And if I could speak Japanese, I would get my hands on the lyrics ASAP.

Just watched the Wowow show. It's nice how they add a bit more choreography each time to their special shows. Those stairs were interesting, especially when I found my self watching them assemble behind Kalafina as they sang. They also added a percussionist to the mix. Interesting. I thought he added to some of the songs, but was a distraction in others. Also loved the acapella start and how Keiko was melting the audience during it. Too bad about no encore part. But then, 90 minute show. Some things have to be cut.
 
I finally got to watch it. I wish I had clever words and knew stuff to explain myself, but this isn't the case. I just watched the whole thing in ecstasy, from the beginning to the end. Except believe, believe was like meh. I would have gladly changed it for tsuioku.
 
i am listening to the live again (without watching them) and omg Hikaru sounds horrible throughout Mune no Yukue, she lost her voice halfway on the end of Hoshi no Utai,, Keiko wasn't really pleasant to hear in identify bridge...and I don't really sense Wakana's presence througout the concert, maybe that's because the aired setlist was leaning more heavily towards Keiko and Hikaru...

Kalafina has become more and more idol-ish to me in a sense that in order for me to enjoy their performances I have to watch them, listening to them isn't that enjoyable anymore.

Considering the WOWOW footage was from Budokan, I think it's fairly safe to assume the BD would be, too. (And I'm just saying that from the editing viewpoint since I don't even know if they had cameras on Kobe.)
 
Yes Yes Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope that they release a second day in Budokan. First we have seen a little. I saw the most interesting song for me from 1st day: Hoshi no Utai, so now I can see the 2nd and I won't regret that they don't release first day.
 
I know everyone and their mothers had said that already but
T S U I O K U :plz:

I didn't expect a release after the Budokan concert was aired, I'd prefer the Chrismas acoustic to be recorded, tbh. But I guess if we get a live Tsuioku it'll be worth.
Also, I'm looking foward to the Mexico documentary as well, all we got from there was fan recordings, and I'm sure for the girls it was a really different experience ^___^

Not related to the BD/DVD release, but I watched again some clips from this live and Hikaru looked really, really emotional. Can't tell if she was sad or happy (I lack social skills, I know) but she seemed like she was going to start crying at any moment =O
 
How do we know its from the Budokan days ? did they specify it ?

it's mentioned in the article.
"なお、終盤には今年9月の日本武道館公演のDVD&Blu-rayが来年1月18日より発売されることがHikaruからアナウンス。Keikoは「武道館の裏側なども入ってます!」と、楽しげにアピールもしていた。"
