I gotta say first that watching the DVD in a super huge screen do make a different. It amuses me that bigger screen shows us things that I otherwise will not take a notice when we watch the same thing using the smaller screen, eg. your regular TV, or laptop screen. So why I only say this now, not before?
That's because LOVE has so much details and seriously, details on very little things that I think I've taken things for granted when I see Arashi concerts. In LOVE you get to see how lighting (especially lighting), staging, choreographs, effects, costumes, arrangements, skits, timing, and other concert requirements that we don't see as audience planned and put together very neatly and smartly. I don't see any gaps so far in how things put together for LOVE (yeah, I watch LOVE more than 2 times already by now). And to make this even better, this concert has very smart editors and cameramen who know what to be put in the DVD and therefore, we're blessed with so many precious moments & angles.
I think what makes LOVE concert special is the great album to start with. So basically the team have lots of room to put in their creative minds to work and for some songs, the performances are totally different from what I expected, and these are the moment where I think, 'Ahh, that makes so much sense', or 'wow, I didn't expect that, just, wow'.
Did I mention fan service just now? Arashi fan service just escalated to the new level with this concert! They're literally asking fangirls to make more Arashi fanfics, and help fangirls by giving the idea of what to write. And, did Jun just campaigning the Juntoshi combi in this concert agressively? He almost always together with Ohno. Well, maybe part of it, it's because his part is mostly sung together with Ohno, but still, almost throughout the whole concert? LOL. This definitely satisfy any fans out there and it should be deemed as a new standard.
After this concert, it'll be very hard for the next concert to match or top over LOVE. I'll be looking forward to what Matsujun can bring. If he's really the brain behind the ideas for LOVE, I seriously bow down and respect Matsujun. This is one concert that you can show off to non-fans on what a good standard of a concert should be. Fan service is included, a concert without fan service is just an exhibition, not a concert, no matter how it may look 'conflicting' (it's damn kawaii OKAY) to other people's perspective (hey, I think Arashi's fan service is very mild compared to the likes of J-Rock).
Without further a do, Aiba-chan will show you to the world of LOVE (my fave performances)...
LOVE e Youkoso!( Beware, this is a super long one... because LOVE deserves it! )
