For all the Yuki Kajiura fans, I still have five more videos of the special live concert... But it's not what you're thinking. Sadly, it isn't more songs, but just the spoken parts of Yuki Kajiura during the concert between songs (MCs) that I had left out. For those of you who don't understand Japanese, I also added a rough translation (thank you to Chibi-Chibi from canta-per-me.net).MC1 Download here

Find out what Yuki Kajiura said during the concert...
MC1
After the introduction she said that during the vol. 1 DVD she decided she wants to do a vol. 2 as well. This happened 3 months later and she says its kinda early (considering the only live concerts she did before were FictionJunction Yuuka ones it damn sure is fast after vol. 1). She then says that she decided to do it so early, or better said on this date, because a lot of students have exams in August, it may be understood that some people are already really busy because of exams and that's why she says thank you to the audience that came, and then a big applause follows.
She noticed that a lot of people are wearing the Yuki Kajiura T-shirts and then starts talking about summer, being really hot, etc. After that she says that if she had to choose between hot or cold weather she'd choose cold, because she prefers winter over summer.
She then mentions vol. 2 again and then says something funny things about it.
MC2
She starts talking about titles. She asks the audience if anybody knows the title of the hall/event/etc... Apparently nobody does, better said she doesn't wait to see if anyone does know. She continues saying that in other words she doesn't need to know the title so she looks on the billboard to see which one it is again and she's all: oh yeah.. i got it now! (the song title)
She gets onto introducing the singers and she says what she likes about each of their voices and some embarrassing things about them as well.
-WAKANA
She refers to her as a goddess (megami), she really likes her voice and she says she likes that WAKANA can vary her voice a lot (aka goes quickly from low to high pitches).
And off to sharks. Apparently she really likes them. When they were at studio she talked about sharks for about half an hour, she talked about how great they are and are the best animal on the world, while everybody was just listening and humming.
At that point she asks WAKANA if she bullied her a bit too much and apologizes, and of course WAKANA says shes fine.
-Yuriko Kaida
She says she used her for lots of OST songs and actually she didn't even noticed for how many songs she has used her. She says she likes the that Keida can sing nice high tones.
She then talks about her brother...
And apparently it seems that when Kaida was coming to the hall she made a mistake and went to the next door house. While there, she got a bento and dessert and ate. Kaida is then so embarrassed that she concludes the introduction.
Kajiura still continues for a while though saying that she finds Kaida's voice like one of an angel (and something about Kaida being one of a kind in the world).
-KEIKO
Kajiura says that KEIKO-chan's voice is a bit different and that there is a big gap/difference between her spoken and singing voice. She then mimics KEIKO...
She also says that KEIKO likes tennis, and then the two start talking about tennis, and KEIKO sats she got 4th place in a tennis competition.
-KAORI
She says that KAORI is really good at singing, and that she sings like a pro. KAORI studied music a lot by herself and she likes to improvise in the songs. Kajiura really praises KAORI a lot here and KAORI says that its actually scary to be praised so much.
A few days before this LIVE it was KAORI's birth day, she's now 20 years old.
MC3 (exclusively with Eri Ito):
So obviously they start talking about Tsubasa Chronicle.
They thank each other a lot. You are my love was the first song they recorded together and Eri says that when she first heard it she thought it was really beautiful. Kajiura blushes and starts laughing. The meeting between the two was a coincidence but Kajiura was really happy to find such a beautiful voice so she really wanted her to sing the songs. They go on to talk about Eri's album here. Eri says that no matter what she wanted Kajiura to make at least one song for her album even though she knew that Kajiura is really busy. Kajiura says its published under her name, and Eri continues its under hiragana Eri since lots of people are confused or misread her name in kanji, so she changed it to hiragana. And a few more words about the album, and the funny contradiction between albums title and the song Kajiura made for Eri (aka Lonely with you and Loving you).
Kajiura: So next song ....
Eri: Kajiurago desu ne (Kajiurago, right)
Kajiura: Hai, sou desu ne (Yes, thats right)
MC4 (introduction of band members)
She says they are not back band members but only front band members.
On bass Junior aka Takahashi “Jr.” Tomoharu
-he's eroi (aka erotic, aka hot)
-i think he's single right now
-He's Italian by heart (lol... he's been born there anyway), and looks like a foreigner, European, thats why Junior
Drums Sato Kyouichi
-Kajiura says that "today" he has an aura of a prince
-they know each other since for a very long time
-something about Kyushu and fast tempo
-she goes back on his playing saying its like touch-and-go
Guitar Korenaga, Koichi
-he's a funny man
-seems like the singers are crazy about him
Violin: Konno, Hitoshi
-eroi violin player :3
-during the rehearsal when practicing The World KEIKO borrowed his violin and played The World (well at least some lines) and they wanted her to repeat that, but it failed, so Hitoshi mimicked her. Kajiura said if they had to perform the song at her tempo it would take them 30 minutes to finish the song.
Manipulator Yoshio Ohira
-someone we usually don't see
MC5
T-shirts this, T-shirts that. Apparently they got sold out so she said she'll make sure they'll make them more for next time.
Lots of talk about yume no tsubasa. She wanted to have a song for the encore where everybody could sing a long and have fun, so that's why she chose yume no tsubasa since it a low pitched song.
