Goods for the arena tour are now up for viewing here! Although, as usual, the site keeps crashing due to too much traffic. There are a total of 42 brand new items. Each city (Kobe, Nagoya, Tokyo) will also have its own individual designs for t-shirts, towels, and keychains.

The goods will be available to purchase on Kitty Enter Shop starting from 12/1 12:00 am JST, except the Kobe/Nagoya/Tokyo-branded goods--those will only be available at each respective venue. No word on whether or not the goods will be up on the international store yet, but if they will they probably won't be made available there until after the tour ends.

Anyone else going to Kobe?

i've seen them in essen...so kobe is a bit to far away.

Those items looks really cool, especially the t shirts.  Tho I don't get why a ghost has to do with the tour, unless its the theme. But cute nonetheless .pinch.

Based upon past history does anyone have any idea how early to queue up to ensure items will be available? 

This is pretty cool and I'm looking forward to the concert!

I'm sure they'll have more than enough stock to not run out of most things for at least several hundred or even a few thousand people, but you should plan to get there probably no later than 10-11 am if you want specific items and want to make sure you can get them.

I went to their Queens are trumps tour 3 years ago in Nagoya where they played two days. The first day, my friends and I arrived around 3 pm and got in the goods line right away, which was very long and had already opened at 2 pm. By the time we got to the front around 5 pm a bunch of things had already sold out, including most of the things we had really wanted. To make sure we got everything the next day, we lined up from around 10:30 am and were the first ones in line.

I think it just depends on how selective you are. I got there at 5:30 for the Budokan show and there was still plenty left, although various things had sold out. But I had a list of about 10 things I wanted so there was still more available than I could even afford, and I had to cull my list down.

If you know you definitely want one specific thing, then you'd better get there early.

Was hoping to join the mad rush online at 12AM JST yesterday but I was still at work. All it took was being a couple of hours late to the party and all the stuff I'd like to get are gone. lol

I just hope it doesn't snow on January 12 (Tokyo rarely gets it but it did last Jan when I was there hahaha).

I'm guessing we'll show up 11-noon since we have to travel from Tokyo and will want to eat something first before waiting in line.

Is there a good way to figure out where the line should start if we beat everyone there?

Based on the pictures from SCANDAL's Instagram and the members' Twitters, three of the members changed their hair! HARU went back to blonde, MAMI is now dark brown with blonde underneath, and TOMO went pinker.

Set list for SCANDAL ARENA TOUR 2015-2016 『PERFECT WORLD』 @ Kobe World Memorial Hall:

---

Spoiler:

Also, the final performance of this tour (the second Budokan performance on 1/13) will be aired live on WOWOW, just like what was done for the second FESTIVAL performance, which means a live DVD is pretty much guaranteed!

*Apologies for the double post, but these news just had to be shared ASAP!

One more thing: A better look at the members' new hairstyles:

The setlist is pretty great. I wonder how Chiisana Hono sounds like when played live.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lol.Tbh, Haruna and Mami looks weird with those new hair styles  .lol.

No new songs,eh? Oh well we might see if they change it up a bit for the next concert. But very cool set list. Wasn't expecting Kill the Virgin or Kimi to yoru to namida to be played..uhuh.
I'm sooooo stoked one of the tour lives is gonna be broadcasted.(my wish as been granted) I hope Chiisana  Honou , LiaJ, Standard, and Rainy will stay on the set list. .dance.

Also the members dying their hair reminds me of how the OOR members dyed the hair for their 35xxxv tour this past summer. Is Rina hair different it looks almost dark violet or something. I kinda like their hair change.

Hon Wo Yomu and Kill the virgin
.happy.
So many good songs. This setlist is really great.

Major shock seeing Haruna and Mami change hairstyles like that!

Setlist is superb andddd I like the fact that they're not performing their upcoming songs yet to excite the audience more. And a 24-song playlist is good as well.

Kimi to yoru to namida.... I miss that one so much

And further on the subject of hair, it would appear Rina has gone for purple?

Rina's Hair:

@Rift

Yes I saw that, and Mami has black hair and Haruna has gone blond

I went to Kobe last night, and WOW! What an amazing way to kick off their tour. SCANDAL have called in the help of Patrick Woodroofe to light the show, and it really does look phenomenal. 

The girls new image really suits them, and they even had a 5 minute MC talking about their hair styles and changes over the years. Haruna said she was a little nervous about presenting her new hair, but the crowd quickly cheered and clapped to show their appreciation. Mami noted that she hasn't really had jet black hair since the "Baby Action" days. 

They spoke about the release of the documentary on DVD and BluRay, and mentioned it has just started screening in Mexico. They went on to talk about the various places they visited on the world tour and the differences in the cities. 

Once they'd finished playing Kill the Virgin (Rina was rocking the new Sony headphones) they said they wanted to play it on the world tour, but they were worried that the literal translation and "Japanese/English" lyrics would make people say "Wow, these girls want to kill Virgins? Crazy!"

As a bonus for Scandal Mania fan club members, you could flash your card and use a special Perfect World stamp. I used mine to stamp my Hello World photo album, but many other people were stamping their t-shirts.

Great setlist with some surprises! I guess they're saving 24 Jikan & Koi no Kajitsu for the 10th anniversary show. It makes sense that they wouldn't play any of the new songs they just recorded. This is a celebratory victory tour, so playing the one new song Chiisana Honoo is the perfect way to end the regular set.

The set list is amazing. I hope that for the last performance the band will sing Flashback No.5

That is a great set list, only 9 more days for the concert at Nippon Gaishi Hall and we'll know if it's going to be the same for all the concerts or not.


Very excited for the concert now!

Can't wait for the concert in Nagoya. But anyone know that do the staffs at the merch stand speak English?? really want to get many items including their Documentary DVD and the calendar .wow.

The items will be on the menu at the merch stall - just point and indicate the quantity. No problem at all!
