Avex has just announced one hour ago that all performance from 20th to 24th in Osakajo Hall and Kobe World Hall will be canceled, that means all abovementioned concerts by HDFB will NOT be carried on.
Sorry to say, the last 2 LOVE LETTER arena tour concerts are OFFICIALLY CANCELED. Information about refund or re-schedule will be announced later.

I'm really not surprised about this, but hope everyone gets refunds. Some states in the US along with countries worldwide are trying to pass Martial Law bills to keep the H1N1/Swine flu virus from spreading and to keep those confirmed/suspected cases better contained until further action can be carried out. So far Massachusetts is the first place to give it a go. Along with that, it was pretty scary reading the news about how the confirmed swine flu cases in Osaka jumped from 7 to 93 in less than a day. The rapid rate of which the flu is spreading in Kobe and Osaka is probably what caused the cancellations of the concerts. |

Ah that is too unfortunate.n Oh well, health and safety always comes first. It is rather scary that Kansai has experienced such a rapid increase in cases. I hope everyone afflicted by the flu are well. Hopefully the remaining LOVE LETTER tour dates will be soon.
p.s. Ai work on a new single please. |

Just a picture of the health provisions Avex made sure to put at Yokohama Arena? during Ai's concerts there.
Let's hope Ai takes the time to write a new single... |

| Apparently there is a rumour going around that Ai hinted/spilled the beans to LOVE9CUBE members that she was going to get married :S I'm unsure of the validity of this but thought it was interesting to note... |

That's me or when I see the photo of the stage, I have the impression that there is not too much people, I mean, there are a lot of empty place... Am I wrong ?

It's because the picture was taken before the concert started, when people were still arriving.  |

| ^I don't think so because they wouldn't have filmed it most likely, since it wasn't the last date. I only hoped that they filmed it just in case of Osaka being cancelled, but I don't think they did. They will most likely film the Osaka shows whenever they are rescheduled. |

Aww... I'd love to see the Yokohama Arena with Ai, the stage seems so great...
Hope they filmed even if they didn't seem to...
According to the msg written by Ai-Chan on her website, she really feels sorry about those dates which are deleted, n she hopes that is recovers as quickly as possible. |

Does that mean that they already filmed the DVD or that it was presold prior to even filming. I really hope this DVD comes out. I can't wait to see her do all of these songs live. I hope she also does Sora to Kujira. I'll cry for sure. |

A reply to azurejan
I just got the Hong Kong version and I am sad that I missed your message before buying the DVD.
Quote: 1. the screen ratio is stated to be 16 : 9, but actual is 4 : 3 (it pretends to be 16 : 9)
Yes, they are putting 16 : 9 contents into a 4 : 3 screen. I think this should be called 4 : 3 letter box style. And I used to think this style should only be appeared in DVD that produced before 2002. Nowadays all new TV and monitors are in 16 : 9 ratio and I used to think that there should not be any 4 : 3 letter box DVD in this era.
Quote: 3. the subtitles are all in Chinese, is not optional, hardcoded on video data.
Yes, this is very annoying. I am also a Matsu Takako fans and bought her Taiwan version concert DVD before. When she was in Universal Music, her Taiwan version DVD does have optional subtitles. I think this should be one of the basic functions of a DVD. If Avex Taiwan doesn't want to make it, please just print all the subtitles on a paper just as before...
It appears that Avex Taiwan are just putting the original video clip for making VCD into a DVD. I don't know what to do if the same situation happens in next concert as Japanese is really too expensive for me. I agree with you, I don't know who will buy this kind of version if they know it before. A fans of Ai won't accept this kind of quailty, and those who are not really fans just only download from the Internet.
About the Bluray verison, as I know, Ai is still the only artist in Avex that released bluray disc before. Even Ayumi Hamasaki doesn't release bluray until now. I don't know why but I guess one of the reason is Avex is the opponent of Sony and they don't want to help Sony for increasing popularity of bluray disc. That's why they release both HDDVD and bluray for Love is Born 4th. |
