No.48
>>47A screen is still super cheap and feels like a kick to the balls. Fan concerts like Vocamerica and Vocaloid Medley use holograms so what's stopping Crypton here?.
No.73
>>72It was big enough to contain the choreography, so probably 6ftx12ft or similar. How big it feels depends on the distance.
I went to 2 showings - one I waited 8hrs for a good pit spot, other was seated and I was middle of the pack. When I was close up the TV looked fine, probably better than the projector even, since it filled most of my field of vision. Halfway through the crowd though the TV outline stood out like the black box in nununu's videos. It took mental effort to ignore the it and focus on the performance. So my recommendation if they have the same garbage setup is to battle for the best view possible.
For what it's worth, if there were no lights on behind the TV, you wouldn't be able to tell it was there.
No.74
>>73I really don't understand why they just didn't settle for cheaper materials if they wanted to cut costs, instead of using a literal screen
No.75
>>74The speculation I've heard is that the screen is more durable or easier to transfer between venues which is more relevant to the international tours than the JP ones. They've used screens for Miku x Kodo and it looked good, though, so really they just buffed it for Expo.

I still want to attend miku expo but I was wondering what songs/setlist do they usually go with?
No.79
>>76It was a miku concert, so it was good, but it was probably the weakest tour so far. Since it was the 10th anniversary, they played all the old expo theme songs, and they geberally kinda suck outside magical cure love shot. That sucked up 3 setlist spots per venue and the show was 1-2 songs shorter than people expected also. They didn’t have time to play Godish which I was surprised by.
>>78Usually you get a blend of recent Mirai songs and old reliable stuff.

>>92It's not a bad idea but you'd need money, contacts, and a plan, and most importantly you'd have to organize it outside

I really wanted to see Tell Your World and Hyper Reality Show, and I got both. Childish War and Gimme x Gimme were unexpected surprises. Unknown Mother Goose with Miku wearing the colors of the 2020 theme was really cool, that song was extra incredible to experience live.

Honestly i think i would go even if it had a screen, miku concerts have this sort of energy that you don't get from regular concerts from other bands.
No.319
>>314>The people shitting on MExpo2024 were people who went there though.NTA but that's not exactly fair to say either. I was at the first showing, everyone I talked to there and online afterwards said they had a great time. If you watched Twitter, the initial outrage largely seemed to be caused by people from cities they hadn't gone to yet, and each time they hit another venue, more and more people started to sing praise.
I'm sure there were attendees that complained too, but from what I could tell almost everyone that went said they had a good to great time.
Definitely not saying they shouldn't make improvements, though. CrunchyRoll doesn't deserve to touch Expo.
