@Taguro Congratulations! Being a passionate fan of 3+ IPs featured in that concert (7 IPs in the same stage would be awesome), I'm truly envious. I must admit, I'm not a fan of Japan's concert lottery system; I've seldom had luck with it.

Have fun with it. I've seen Aqours a couple of times, and the Cinderella Girls of IM@S at AX, but have heard of the lottery system there not being friendly to people outside Japan.

@Vtory Thanks! I would agree. The lottery system is very unfriendly esp to foreigners. After the pandemic, they only increased the difficulty of getting tickets, with things like face scanning and e-registration. Luckily for this concert, they opened a few slots for foreign fans and I was fortunate to have gotten in. I personally look forward to seeing Liella! and Aqours the most.

@insidious meme I used to follow Aqours around a lot back in 2017-2019. Went to all their major concerts in Japan (until Love Live Fest), but that was prior to the current system of e-registration and mandatory face scans. I used to buy the tickets off resale sites, but cases of scalping have gotten pretty bad esp for mainstream artists to the point where the government had to step in.

Well you weren't as nuts as some of the fans who followed that tour from LA on July 4 to Fukuoka on July 7 and 8 2018. I hate scalping, and it's gone bonkers esp for major tours. Someday, enough people will get sick of it to keep it in check. Someday.
