Damn. Best. 2. Hours. Of. My. Life. Seriously. It was a great concert, easily comparable to that of say, Jay Chou or Lady Gaga. Miku's choice of songs are possibly among the best, fighting with Live in Sapporo for best track list. The band was great, and they interacted with the audience. It was hilarious as hell to see them take part in the Popipo dance.
Awesomeness:
As mentioned, music choices made were excellent. While it was obviously similar to Live in Sapporo, they made some changes. For example, Live in Sapporo started with a high energy song and ended with a slow one, while Live in Singapore did the exact opposite. Also, order of songs were swapped, with a couple added, and others removed. Luka got 3 songs this time, which was better than having 2. The place was packed. It was a full house sell-out, even after opening more slots to both VIP and normal tickets. Shows how much fans Miku has. Even the crowd sang along. Truly a memorable night. The cast too got a graphical update. Those pixels aren't visible unless you strain really hard to look for. But if you were doing that, why the hell are you even there? I could be wrong here, but it sounded like they were using Luka's Append set, which Live in Sapporo did not, yet another plus point. Miku also introduced the band, which was another awesome part for me. Speaking of which, the band were seriously dynamic. IMO they performed way better than they did in Sapporo. Thank god they used the glass panel this time, not that bullcrap black box from the Tokyo concert. Next time, I'll be getting better seats.
Gripes:
Some dances were cut short, most noticeably on Munsunde Hiraite Rasetsu To. While Sapporo had the screen above, Suntec did not, and the glass panel did not give enough space for Miku to dance. Secondly, the ridiculous lack of duets. There was only ONE duet between Miku and Rin, which was also the first appearance made by Rin. If anything, I was honestly expecting a duet between the Kagamines. Sapporo did it very well, where Rin sang Daughter of Evil, while it cuts off half way and Len continues with Servant of Evil, and they both end it with their songs at the same time. Thirdly, the lack of "interaction" between Miku and the audience. This is probably due to the language barriers, as Miku would ask the audience a question, to which the answer was expected. Fourthly, no final appearances made by all 4 Vocaloids in the closing song. Admittedly, it didn't really allow them to appear based on the song. Overall still a great experience which could be better. There was only one song which I actually disliked.
Others:
God, the que was massively long, just to redeem stuff. Additionally, Miku's merchandise were OOS at an incredible rate. It's like these kids were made of money or something. Also, this hilarious malay girl was attempting to dance like the Vocaloids(key word: attempting). She actually span right into the wall. There were lots of parents with kids around, but only one pair of parents were actually singing along. Pretty cool huh? I also saw this old grandparents with their grandchildren(they were in front of me). They knew their stuff, that's for sure. They sang, educated their grand kids in the mystical knowledge of Vocaloid. The grandpa was even dancing, very, very well. For an animated diva, Miku and Co's music sure has touched many many people. Including me. Call me an otaku for coming to this concert. I'll be proud of it.
