I don't remember the setlist... *goes to find it* Ok I'll start off with going into the dome...

K, so we went into the dome really early and bought some drinks and whatnot inside. Then we went and sat down and just stayed there because the stairs are really hard to climb if you're short. Dx They were really big steps... The planets (+ moon and sun I'm guessing... not that I could figure out which one was the moon) were above and each had like a different colored spotlight flashing up on it. The screen had random info junk and there were announcements of what's allowed and whatnot in Japanese, English, Korean, Chinese repeating over and over again.

The con started pretty suddenly with a countdown (screen with red numbers starting from "10" with them counting down out loud... I guess they started this only recently) and everyone started screaming and standing up. Then the animation... was kinda scary at first LOL. Think "Together" except with more thought put into the graphics because the guys were quite literally flat. Like, when the camera spun around their characters they were flat like paper xD. Kame did that Gokusen line, Jin told him うるせ、亀梨, Ueda asked chicken or pork I think... Taguchi did iriguchi deguchi Taguchi desu, I can't remember what the others said because it was too long lol. >.>

Was it after this that there was that opening dramatics with the juniors? Either way it looked really cool. They used the lights to make cool cascading effects and whatnot and at some point in some song they spelled out KAT-TUN with them. xP

RESCUE - We all pretty much saw it during the news reports and stuff. Blazing backgrounds with a blazing RESCUE up above. They did like an individual member thing a couple times this con (like intro or whatnot) and RESCUE's dancing part was one of them. I'm guessing that they all did the dancing that they did in the PV because I forgot to look at the big screen after Kame (I just stared at the screen with their name+face afterwards Ithink... ahaha)... but his looked familiar so yeah. >.>

One Drop - Tis all bluuueeee and the water was really cool. >o< You know what, know how Korean fans do those chants? The Japanese fans don't do that but they do certain motions with the penlights... It was hard for me to get some of those right. x.o One drop is kinda easy since it's that handmovement in the PV.

LIPS - omg the bg was awesome! I think I stared at the bg more than anything else. LOL There were like image of thorns and stuff above the stage and it scrolled either up or down >.>. It was done with lights and stuff but it was cool and forced you to look a bit above rather than just on stage. Then at some point the background of the main stage had those tree stuff from the PV and yeah... Oh yeah, I think Jin waved to our side... again I only noticed because the crowd started waving madly lol @-@

Yorokobi no Uta... was silver I think? I don't remember much about this one except the silver title on the long thing.

Keep the faith - Don't remember much either was this blue too? ==' *forgetful*

DUES - Ok, you CAN'T forget the title for this one. It was like red slowly creeping up half way (so like a gradient) and it really fit the beginning of the song. I think Kame took off his sunglasses here? I only remember looking back to the big screen when I heard screaming and saw that his sunglasses were off lol.

White X'mas - WAS SO PRETTY. Sparkly light effects all over the main stage bg like lights and there was this metal thing in the middle stage (the round stage with the water effects and stuff) where these metal semicircles with purple lights went up and around that stage (with gaps inbetween) to form a dome with the pretty lights... it was pretty. >.<

SADISTIC LOVE - Lots of chain backgrounds... like how they had throns in LIPS above the main stage, they had chains falling down for this song.

1582 - There was lots of dramatics as the Kame in a cage went up and did a lot of danging things (which was also on the screen to make it seem like Kame I guess... the stuntdude must have had to practice a lot to get all the movements right lol o-o). Then he finally fell and everyone screamed. Then the pretty music as the Kame in kimono had a mask on and of course there was screaming as he took it off. He like took it off kinda sideways, slowly showing his face. He looked so pretty though >.< and then he came down and did his solo... I was kinda looking around everywhere but I can't remember much lol. @-@ background was pretty... lots of juniors in the beginning but then just a few were left... then he did the role switcheroo and went to the middle and there was the water+umbrella thing I was like as;lkjf;asldfj when I saw the two juniors hand him something on each side because I knew what it was. xD The sparklers!! It's reaaally pretty to see >.< and everyone went Uwoooo... Then he flew with the paper thingies and it looks really cool from far back. Like as if he's being pulled by them and stuff (especially since you can't see the wires from back where I was lol). Yeaah the whole thing all came together really smoothly. >.<

Then the uhh "transition from Kame -> Koki" where Koki played the drums (and some jr singing some olden time sounding thingy) and Kame frolicked around getting wet. Kame did his best to make it look all fancy and twirly of course lol. I wonder if they made the color changing clothes part more obvious as it went or if it was this obvious to begin with? xD It was pretty cool though.

PIERROT - American flag bg I was like lol wth. xDDD Yeaaaah... the motorcycle thing took too long for my liking but otherwise it was a song to easily get into. Except the raising your penlight at the HAH was kinda hard to get right because it was inbetween the beats and you're waving it a certain way before and after. >.>' And I think they waved it differently at the crazy crazy and other parts but I wouldn't know because I couldn't catch onto those. ==; Oh, Koki's facial expressions were really good. :o Like for the crazy part he made his eyes really big and looked crazy xD;

"Transition from Koki-> Junno" them talking about their collab during his solo and whatnot. Koki answered at some point with "kashikomari" lol. Then Koki's "Wooo" (like in cktk where Akame did the indirect kiss) while Junno was like putting his hands up looking ilke "Yeah I'm great 8D" and Koki was like "thanks for cheering for me as always" and went down then of course Junno was like "No! It's me :P!"

WIND - Everyone probably alraedy read it... I remember the tapdancing and the glow in the dark juggling (you could see the balls from back where I was). Jin appeared in the back of the song and uhh did some harmonizing although it was kinda out of place in the beginning.

Maru beatboxed which was really cool, then some jr with something said they're releasing something or something and did their medley? I don't know jrs if you couldn't tell Dx

Then PEAK! They played with the jrs in the bg some more here with the lights... was it here that they spelled it out? I can't remember. Was it this song where they (Kame) got everyone to jump at the end? most of the people in the back were kinda-not-really into the movements though so lol we just like bounced. xD (except for the group of girls that I mention below)

Jumpin' Up - Bright bg with up arrows going up with bring Jumping up! letters I think... I remember the arrows lol.. they were orange... whild the bg was like whiteish-yellow? Anyway it was fun and there was this little group of girls (I just know one's like a Kame fan + jr fan) who got reaaally into the con at this point because they were jumping and everything. The people in front of me was a family (mom, dad, daughter, son) so the kids got tired easily and sat down a lot lol. The husband never really stood up during the con but you could tell that he was interested and had fun watching it since if something was going on in the back stage (which was hardest to see from where we were) he would kinda get up and try to see what was going on. xD This was throughout the con but I forgot about it until now. XP

No Matter Matter - It got messy every now and then with the penlights because the guys would sometimes go "hands up" but then they'd stop for a while then everyone was like ??? and went back to just waving it with the beat but then they'd start saying it again LOL.

Then Koki did his usual asking if we were high, like KAT-TUN then told us to sit down lol.

Oh oh Kame did the clapping thing this time! Apparently it's his first time doing it or something but he had to because he kept looking around but all the members were bowing. LOL The members stood evenly apart for the most part... except Kame who stood like right next to Maru the whole time. Jin talking about his thing, which somehow led into Shuuji to Akira? Then someone asked Kame which one he was and he was like "Akira" and everyone was like lol wut, then he was like "chigauka" and everyone went crazy. LOL Then Jin said something about how Kame had a Akira-ppoi and Jin was really confused for a moment. You could tell that their MC isn't scripted at all because the members say what they want and sometimes they can't say what they want because the rest of them aren't listening >.>;. Kame did another lame "chigauka" thing and everyone was like oh jeez lawl. The EEEEEH from the audience when Jin said that he had a kiss scene was lol.

Then it started raining and you could hear the rain pounding on the dome. @-@ KAT-TUN was all like woaaah listen to that rain... Junno said something stupid like it's not rain it's (something I forget) walking on top of the dome... and everyone was like "wth ==;" while the audience was like "lawl". Kame was upset because he didn't know that it was going to rain and left his boots on the balcony or something. xD (but I can understand... soggy shoes suck Dx) Koki said he took it in already but then Kame was like "wut you don't have spare keys to my room" and laughed. xP Junno got lonely and tried to say that he was part of Tranceivers REVENGE (when the members asked what it was about he said it was about transceivers that transformed into robots... ==; ) and Angels and something but another lame thing. I remember Jin or Koki telling Junno to shut up and then one more time later on lol... Oh and during the talk about Dream Boys... Jin was like "say yoroshiku to Tegoshi for me" and Kame was like "if you're on good enough terms to say that, say it directly to him yourself O-o" and Jin was like "errr I haven't really talked to him much..." and Kame was like "well I haven't really either .__." LOL Poor Tegoshi is like the odd one out. XD There was more DB joking around when Kame said that there were differences (jokes = sumo - which everyone LOL'ed at, Kame losing/dying) and then Kame tried to explain but I think it ended up being something that he could only point out to Koki.

WATER DANCE - It was pretty cool. I was trying to use my binoculars to see it more clearly but yeah... I think it was kinda shown on the news and stuff?

MOON! Pretty kinda traditional bg... with falling umbrellas and stuff... and yeah, the guys kinda sung and spun around and spun the umbrellas... I only happened to look at the screen when Kame did it and it was all pretty and smooth... then I happened to look when Jin did it and it looked rather jerk-ish. XD

I think the song was called Vanilla? Jrs... yeah... Idk
Then Fire Beat... again jrs... Idk... but there was fire...

Real Face! I LOVED this song in the dome. It sounds AWESOME with the loud music and everything! Kame rapped and when Kame was like "omoi" I think Jin (who echos right?) said "karui" lol oh yeah, Yucchi sung parts of Jin's part (a part in the middle Jin sang) I think they were pointing their mikes at each other? Junno did Koki's rap and the fact that he can do it is amazing already. x.x Esp since that ending rap goes by so fast...

Himawari Corner! Not much to say except that I love Le Ciel, I love Murasaki, I love Six Senses... Idc about Love or Like. There was the usual in Murasaki... people screamed when Kame started singing, but Akame didn't really face each other or anything so it died down until the very end when they kinda looked at each other? or something? Then they screamed. There was screaming when Koki went to Jin and had a brief hug... relatively quiet for the others... I think Junno was trying to do something but Jin totally ignored him lol. Then Maru... XDDD He got to sing one line before Jin came along and forced his mike down. The song ended with Maru's ".____." face closeup looking all pitiful LOL. People screamed and laughed

Ueda's solo! Hana no Mau Machi! His piano playing was so so so pretty!!! Esp that song he played in the beginning Idk what it was but it was ;askdjfal;sfj!! Then he played his solo song which led into the actual song's audio... I couldn't tell if he made a mistake but maybe he did? Because before he started singing he kneeled on the floor and bowed again. But yeah, his solo was really pretty. Falling petals, the Romeo and Juliet scenes, these words that went by the screen but I can't really remember it.

WHITE WORLD - Yucchi did this shadow/spotlight play where he had like an image of him flying arond the main stage while he appeared every now and then. Then his solo started and there was like a bg of snow/ice chunks I think... I really liked that intro thing... there were jrs dancing with these white ghost things that later flew around too...

WONDER - Yeah, after Jin appeared on the throne or whatnot... uhh... I stared at the PV most of the time so I have no idea what he did during the con, but I think he just did the regular dancing+singing solo. His engrish was hard to understand so when he sang solo I had to look at the screen for the lyrics lol.. Crystal Kay I could understand and the duet parts since she overpowered him I could understand too... It said Akanishi Jin feat. Crystal Kay but I think they should either flip it, or get rid of the feat. and make it &. >.>

Then there was this planet thing where they introduced each member as the king of xx. First it was Junno vs Ueda... they did the light ball fighting until Ueda blasted im with his gun/bazooka thing twice lol... or that's how it looked like from way far back... inbetween the two shots Junno draink something? so then Ueda shot him lol. =3=

Koki and Maru did the impersonations... High tension Maru during RESCUE and Jin during DUES. The Jin one was pretty ridiculous and ahd everyone laughing. Especially with Maru's almost chicken-like something scream at the end. XD

Kame and Jin did the flying around. You could tell which one was which because Kame did his all fancy and being cool and flying like while Jin was a frozen dude all stiff... except he then saluted... The sparklers came up and I was like eep! because they were so cose to it. @-@ Then the water came up and both of them got drenched. LOL Then it became like a mess and they were like !!! and Jin was like flailing around so he came down first. XDD Kame was still kinda up there although the string wasn't really going back and forth much anymore and so he came down soon after.

WILDS OF MY HEART - you know that kikoenai line that Kame always plays with? Yeah, he changed it to tsumetaiyo I think, and then Jin changed his line to tsumetaiyo after too. xD I triiiied to look at the guys but it's hard to spot them lol... unless they're like right below your area... then you know because the fans around you start waving or jumping or something.

NEIRO was really pretty too. >.< sparkly and all spacy and yeah... very pretty. And the crowd got to sing the last NEIRO and that was pretty too

And I already said this but the lit up words were REALLY PRETTY. Since we were on the very top, we could see the <3 in the arena really well. It was a;asldkfj

Then Kame did his long good bye speech and the others said a shorter good bye and it was over. Then the crowd called for an encore and so they came out with all the planet (+moon/sun) and in those trolleys and sang She Said... Then after She Said... was of course Peaceful Days where the crowd chanted the spelling out of KAT-TUN and stuff. Then they mentioned the jrs and then when they were done Kame did the "and we are" and they spelled out KAT-TUN with the audience and then the audience was like "KAT-TUN!" at the end.

The group of super excited girls that I told you about chanted for another encore with some other people but they didn't come out. My friend and I were kinda stuck because the people on both sides of us took a while packing up all their uchiwas and stuff. .__.' There's really barely any room between the seats lol. x.x

Oh yeah, the posters they gave out... they gave out the 6 usual ones, then like what, 25 of the small flag thingies that used to be hanging out of th dome or something. they didn't call out the 25 but posted the seats later lol. Oh, Jin was like うるせ to the audience twice when he read out his ticket (which ended up being Miroku 369) even though Koki told him off the first time. xD

I can't remember which songs but the green lazer around the dome was cool, they even used the edge of the stands to create patternd and stuff with it! And I had to look up a couple times at the dome ceiling because there were shapes projected on it. Really, way too much to look at. @-@ Most of the fans were young girls, but there were older women, families (like the one we sat behind), and some guys too (some were dragged by their friends/girlfriends probably hahaha).


So yeah, the con was AMAAAAAAZING. ♥!!! I'm super glad that I got to go to this con. *o* KAT-TUN 最高! I had huge expectations but this was even better! Like seriously. I had binoculars because I thought that I would need it to look at stuff but I only used it a few times when I was done looking at the whole stage. I could probably do without one a second time just to see the whole stage work its magic again. >.< a;fjkf Sadly Idk if a DVD would be able to capture everything that went on the stage with Break the Records... They'd need like various angles. Dx

Anyway, to my f-list: anyone want any specific goods from the con or anything? (of the smaller stuff) I refuse to go in line again but if it's available within the dome I can buy it there.

Oh, the mob of people flooding out of the dome was really... like... @-@ And the spot in front of gate 22 was always like crowded because of the KAT-TUN con banner thing that's up there. There was aaaalways people standing there taking pics. The goods line also always had people from morning -> night. O-o'' Of course it was much shorter as time went by, but I don't think it was ever empty.

Maybe I should buy paparazzi pics... I decided against it because I already wasted a lot of money but... Idk. Maybe I'll take a better look at the pics today. x.x
