Nana Mizuki LIVE FORMULA
I’ll hopefully have a more concrete entry/review of Nana Mizuki’s LIVE FORMULA DVD in the next 24 hours, so for now I’ll you folks with photos of the DVD and extras after the jump. For a pseudo-review of this GREAT DVD, I highly recommend houkoholic’s post at seiyuu3. Also YouTube is a great place to look as well
Update: Added 75 screencaps from the first two DVDs (basically the concert). I doubt I’ll add any from the third DVD due to laziness but I will mention it’s pretty fun with extras like a “making of”, interview with the Cherry Boys band, and scenes from the other concerts. And let me just add, I initially had over 300 screenshots but somehow reduced it to 75; do pardon my crappy screencap skills, however, which seem to have deteriorated greatly after years of non-consistent blogging.
I think unlike reviewing anime, reviewing any type of concert is hard as hell simply for the fact without actually hearing the music played one can’t get a good feel whether it’s “good” or “bad”. Sure if one actually has some lick of writing talent, s/he can fill in the gaps but since I’m one of those few that don’t, I can only opt for a lot of screencaps instead
I expect the guys over at seiyuu3 to have a review up sooner or later but in the meantime, if I had describe Nana Mizuki’s LIVE FORMULA DVD in one word, it’d be “godly”. I don’t know, I know I’m blowing it out of proportions, but I was honestly impressed with every aspect of the concert and DVDs themselves. The concert was non-stop Nana-chan awesomeness with her singing her most recent releases (basically 2/3 of “GREAT ACTIVITY”) plus a few oldies. All always great to see and listen to live!
Even after watching the concert twice I’m still dazed over how great it was. I think I’m still too hyped over the afterglow of watching that I can’t put any concrete thoughts or opinions that isn’t positive or pure fanboyism. Maybe it was the price (4600yen is a fricking steal), my fanboyism for Nana-chan, or just that I wanted something to relax to over the weekend that I really can’t praise and recommend the DVD enough to anyone willing to ask about it!
If I ever get my thoughts sorted out, I’ll try to add something of a review in the future but for now I’ll leave off with screencaps of the concert with Nana-chan’s various concert costumes. All except the 3rd and 5th I thought looked great on Nana (that purple/white number with the skirt and her hairstyle frickin’ rocks!) XD































































































Lovely poster! The booklet looks nice too, I’ve seen most of the pics on many magazines that cover Live Formula though. Nice reference to Kanon Seena lol.
OMG~ ME WANTS~ *grabby hands*
Gyaaa can’t wait to receive mine, which is on the way home ^^
Look fan-tas-tic!
As much as I love her concert DVDs, it’s almost as if Nana isn’t done justice unless she’s seen live. Too bad I won’t be seeing her in concert anytime soon, if ever. :v
Awesome.
Moy: Nana Mizuki dai fan!?
Before reading this post, I have no idea what Live Formula is. Your pictures of the booklet prompted me to look into it. Booklet looks real sweet!
Wow….She look so good on her concert huh… ^.^
danie~, glad someone caught the Seena reference. And yea, even though the poster is simple anything with Nana-chan is all good in my books!
bj0rN, tis worth the cost. Go buy now!
lu-k, you’ll definitely enjoy the concert DVDs. the 3rd DVD with all the extras is a kick to watch!
Link, that is true or at least so it seems. I wonder what god I would have to kill to get her to appearance at a US anime convention?
totali, only recently
yinmaster, the concert itself is even better!
Kesenaitsumi, yep! Way better than some of her other costumes and appearance from older concerts.
I’m a big fan of Mizuki Nana’s music!!! I also ordered the dvd. I’m waiting on it right now. She has some the best music I ever heard.
I hope you enjoy the DVD…
While I wait for mine…
@moyism:
Whoa, nice screencaps~ 300 is okay, I was pressing the screenshot hotkey while rewatching it (for God knows how many times already), and I ended up having more than 1000 pics. And that was only for disc 1. -_-;;;
I was going to take pic with Fate PVC (here praying Allison PVC will be made soon), but it’s not mine so I used nendoroids instead, lol.
very nice post!! ^^
I also had no idea what Live Formula is but I do know Mizuka Nana
It looks like some very nice concert
