Yuki Kajiura Live vol.12 Day 1 part 2

That is a photo of photos of Kajiura Yuki from the pamphlet that I bought at the live. :)

I will keep this pretty short because I know that there are other people who can write and will probably write better about the live.
I just wanna gush a little about how high I am now. TBH, I thought FictionJunction had a slightly shakey start but after they settled it was pretty much pure awesomeness for me from then on. I loved the live. I thought it was awesome!! I was mezmerise!! :)

Being a Keiko fan too, I was super happy to hear hitorigoto, gin no hashi and hoshizuku live. I love these songs. And I like the live version if hitorigoto better than the studiplo versio because I generally and not super fond of the saxaphone. I prefer the flute.

Then there was the OMG Kajiura Yuki is a genius portion where she self covered four See-Saw songs. It was like one of the highlights of the live for me. How does she do it? She actually seems capable of reinterpreting and rearranging her own songs in multiple ways and each version is equally awesome.

There were no guest vocalists today. To be honest, I am not really unhappy about that. While I like the guests vocalists a lot, I also really like FictionJunction A LOT and it is always a struggle for me....to want a guest vocalist or want more of FJ? Usually, wanting more of FJ wins out a little.

Keiko and Kaori are really good at getting the crowd going, they are also the two that danced the most as usual. Keiko in particular is really good at connecting with the audience. Several times she'll bend forward and seem to try and connect with with those whom she could see clearly up front. And she would run from side to side to encourage us to so the hand movements and give everyone a big OK when we do it and get it right. I really like it that about her.

Kajiura sensei also got us singing along this time. Last song for the night was Yume no Tsubasa and we were tasked with "la la la"-ing along. I really sang very loudly! Keiko was a great cheerleader here too. :P

The only imperfection for me was that they didn't sing Gaika. I would love to hear that live. That is a Nihongo-only song, if I remember correctly.

Oh....Kajiura sensei also talked about the name FictionJunction. My Japanese is weak so I didn't understand everything....I hope I understood it correct too. I think she said that she likes fiction. And to her fiction means creating things. So her music is like her creating a things. Junction is like a traffic junction. And she and the utahimes meet at this junction where they help her create fiction. When they sing, they are creating their own fiction too. I thought it was interesting. Not sure if she every talked about it before but I didn't know this previously. Disclaimer though, I am writing entirely from memory and what I could understand. :)

Oh......and one last thing. While I didn't get the best seat in the hall. My seat was pretty good for me because I have a direct line of sight to Keiko. :P It was good that I was by the aisle too because I am short and the guy in front of me was blocking me a little. This way I could learn out into the aisle and get a great view of Keiko. She was hardly ever blocked. :D Actually, my seat also gave me good views if everyone actually...just that the direct line of sight for Keiko is extra awesome for me. Hahahaha!!  p

Okay....I think that's it from me. I have to get ready for bed too. Long day tomorrow and I have Day 2 lives at night. :) Good night.
