If you ask my opinion..I think Kalafina's and also FictionJunction's (with 4 vocal bases) perf. style are sth. that are easily to fail..because they aren't based only on the individual perf. quality, but also on the harmonization (well..AniMax's Oblivious is a very good example for this case.) It's the same reason that why ensemble music is so difficult when comparing with solo or orchestra (with has so many instruments that some individual failures may not effect the whole perf. that much..)
I can't surely say that FJ do better than Kalafina coz someone has mentioned that we don't have much enough "obviously non(or little)-post processed" of FJ lives.. But even we would have many enough FJ lives and find that the result is the same as Kalafina, I still ok with it. I accepted the info that Grunty pointed out, but for me, I don't hope much for all or even majority of good performance.. Only there are some good performances that I can see that "even there're some post-processing, they really did so well in that perf." It's ok for me.. Well..even it means that it's so risky to pay so much money to see their live at once because that one can be really failed...
. IMO..I should say that Kalafina is not a good live performer, but it doesn't affect my appreciation for their music...:).

That's why I don't feel like complaining usually. What I like to hear live is not the exact studio quality (thats what the studio recording is for 
), but some variations, arrangement tweaks and extensions. That's what can make a live song stand its own ground and be memorised together with the original. As to handling perfectly ALL of the harmonies and transitions... I surely appreciate them, but I don't quite DEMAND them.
