Would have been really sad I missed out on this concert but they require JP phone numbers so I was never getting a chance. No live viewing in my country either.

This just goes to show how good the music of Macross Frontier was. After so many years it can still sell out concerts.

I wonder if they will ever open general ticket sales? Though I guess this is very popular due to the number of live viewings.

I'm quite sure everyone is working hard, it's just that I only cover May'n, so It looked like she's really everywhere. Their income comes mainly from merchandise, so they really have to depend on fans buying her stuff. There is no specific concert open for foreigners. Just get the ticket and enjoy! 

Yeah I don't really follow a lot of other JP artist aside from her. A far second is Band-Maid, and I did get to see them live along with The Warning last year. Getting tickets to that was quite easy even though it was still a lottery.

Twenty//Next - Best Album on 25/08/2025

Best of May'n 2026 LIVE Tour

One of the venue - Zepp Haneda - Hmmm.....fly in, concert and fly out! XD

 

Is there any other female JP singer as busy as her??? It seems like she's everywhere haha.

And is this one open to foreigners? I'm not sure if I can get tickets to the Macross F live. The next opportunity for me to see her might be in AFA SG (if finances allow).

I've got mine already. If you are interested, the single day concerts tickets starts selling this Saturday!

Congrats! I won't be getting tickets since it's too late to book airplane tickets and hotels without being really expensive. I'm hoping to get one though for the Macross concert in July. I was a bit financially irresponsible late last year and early this year so can't leave on a whim 

Has anybody gotten tickets to May'n's Macross concert this May? A report would be nice.

Finally got mine. I love that there are many full-page images.

There will be a T-shirt collab with Tenjin Hidetaka and will be available at Hiroshima Animate on 2/2/25! 

So there is no chance of getting this for overseas customers?

Though what I would love more is getting a ticket that Macross concert 😄

That was a great talk, especially because it had English subtitles lol.

So how do we buy tickets to this concert??? Is it open to overseas or Japan only?

If Japan only I may have to ask acquaintances there for help.

Mayn's back on the 3rd day of Anisong concert. I'm not familiar with the rest of the lineup so I'm kind of relieved I'm not going. Seems to me more and more 'artists' are of the virtual type which is not my thing. Should have gone to past AFAs when flesh and blood artists were the majority. I had no idea AFA would turn into this eventually.

That said I'd still like to attend a May'n concert, but I also have other places to go to in Japan. My budget and paid leaves are limited so I hope the stars align next year.

Question: I've seen May'n do a version of Only My Railgun, was this ever released as a single?  She did a much better job at it than Fripside IMO.

How can you ask and not post a link??? It's the first I've heard of this 😃

I think that was probably just a one-off performance. You're not getting a single  😛

(Though I did a search in Apple Music and there's not a May'n version there.)

What's the best SEED Freedom HG kit out so far?

It seems there's not that many people (maybe due to the cold), which is nice.

Actually, the christmas ones are tame! XD I've been to 2. They're at places reserved for : First one - a philharmonic orchestra performance (with dress code and no 'wild' gestures during performance (Hope she didn't get into trouble for the last song! XD). The 2nd was like a cinema. If you want the full experience, go for her upcoming PrimVerse concert. I still have some contacts in Japan if you need help.

Thanks, sadly don't have the budget yet right now. I'm planning to go back to Japan in later half of the year if I am able to save up enough. If not, I'll re-consider AFA SG depending on the line up.

And Happy New Year!

You're not the only one who's sick. And it has seriously blocked progress on my gunpla building. Sucks to have wasted vacation time by being sick.

Anyway, would like to attend one of these Xmas concerts someday. The only (main?) problem would be getting tickets.

Looks good.

Thanks! I have some people in mind (ex-coworkers) who are in Japan. Though only a few I think have good Japanese-language skills.

Con : Bad venue - the concert hall is flat and some 6 foot guy is in front of you! 

 

Alternatively some concerts can be view in Cinemas (same concept as pay to view but broadcast only in Japan)

       

 

 

 

 

This one! I went to AFA once and there were not one but TWO big guys in front of me! Haven't had the motivation to go to another AFA since then.

Under what line would this be?

For the concerts in Japan, were you able to buy from Japanese websites easily? Or would it be better if I have somebody already in Japan buy it for me?

I liked the movie. It's not great, it feels like some scenes are lacking or were cut. It could have been longer. I blame this on the director or the editing. In the first Captain Marvel movie there were some scenes with Jude Law's character that were cut that could have elevated that movie more. Maybe we'll see some of it later on for this movie. Kamala Khan was funny and nice like a breath of fresh air, I haven't seen her series but I know enough background so I was not so lost about the character. On the other hand I saw WandaVision so I knew about Monica. But super casuals might get confused? Or will it drive them to watch the series?

The fight choreography was good I think. Maybe the editor burned out making those fight scenes look good? haha. (Though not Winter Soldier good.) Anyway, I made a loud 'oooohhh' at the end credits scene. Only me and my sister knew what it meant it seems. The other moviegoers were kind of silent.

It's her favourite animal. Hippopotamus but Blue !!!

I thought it was some kind of obscure character, it looks like it has 4 eyes! haha

17 years later?? I feel really old now. Anyway, I think there's still good anime being made just not as much as in the past. I also have learned to temper expectations and just enjoy whatever I can. The mecha genre though has really declined.

What's the blue green mascot thing on her cake?
