Girls' Generation: First Japan Tour [Region 2]

This won't be a great review, I'm mainly trying to balance out the rating caused by the ludicrous 1-star review.I've been watching this video over and over the past week or so. The biggest standout to me is Taeyeons' 2 minute Devils' Cry (which you can find on youtube). There's also two back to back segments that look like they're doing a kids show. I skipped over them at first, now I just keep watching them, the girls all look so happy doing it. They wear many outfits throughout the concert, and perform a lot of songs, including Gee, Genie, and Hoot.I would say every fan would highly enjoy this concert video. You can, as of July 2012 (and April 2013), get these from Amazon.co.jp for significantly less than $100. On a lot of pages there's a "see this page in English" link, which definitely helps. Shipping charges are high. But the non-deluxe DVD is $35, the non-deluxe blu ray is about $42, the deluxe DVD is $65 and the deluxe blu ray is $82******* Update Oct 7: I just keep watching this, absolutely love it. If you were only going to buy one SNSD item, this is it. If you're going to buy three, I'd get this,  Girls' Generation  (search, there's at least four listings for their first Japanese album), and  Twinkle .Track List:1. IntroWhite Outfits2.

I highly recommend this concert blu-ray. I don't know if Girls Generation will ever perform here in the midwest, but I am so glad I can experience them in top form on this concert Blu-ray. If you like Girls Generation, you will love this concert Blu-ray.

Product received before promised delivery date. As with most K-Pop CDs/DVDs there are always extras included with the item (Picture Book, Trading Cards, Poster, etc).

Korean super girl group Girls Generation invade Japan with this amazing tour!Highly recommended for the kpop fan! SONE <3

incredible! never thought at aqe 59 this old country boy would love these Korean performers.

This one's probably going to go down in history as their best; I've been following the girls of SNSD (Korean name of Girls Generation) since their debut in 2007, and they just keep getting better. They've grown into their bodies and voices, and this is one incredible concert. To the other reviewer, no, they're not Japanese, but anyone who ever heard of them would already know that, so I can just assume you're one of those people who hate them for no reason and just want to lower their video's rating to kill sales. But you won't be able to. I had already downloaded and watched this concert on 'yootoob', and was so impressed that I immediately bought the blu ray edition. Now, I'm 55 years old; and have seen hundreds of concerts here in the states; but this is one of the best I've ever seen, by ANYBODY! In HD projected onto a 10 foot screen, and surround, it's just like being there, fantastic. You can find the region free versions of the blu ray and dvd via links on soshified dot com (where you can also find translations for the songs if you wish). But I have a region free player, so I got this as soon as it came out.Buy it and watch. And watch again and again. It's that good. Oh, and did I fail to mention that they're all stunningly beautiful, besides being able to sing? (yes, it took years of training to figure out how to sing while dancing and getting into shape to do it, and they did change the choreography to allow the next singer to rest a bit before doing their solo vocal parts).This concert is available as blu ray and dvd in both deluxe, and standard editions. The disks are the same.

I've been following KPOP for the last two years and have seen thousands of various kpop videos. When I discovered this group>>SNSD (Girls Generation), I discovered the best group in the world. When I saw THIS concert performance I was in heaven. You will NOT see a better concert anywhere.These girls could easily be headliners at a Las Vegas casino. They are a Korean group who have mastered singing in Japanese and are working on their English. Japan concerts are state of the art type stages with all the stops. You will not want to miss these performances by Girls Generation.If you have any doubt about this #1 KPOP group from Korea...just go on youtube and see for yourself. Then buy this and enjoy it forever. There is no doubt this is a top FIVE STAR DVD.

This DVD is about a Korean girl group touring japan. The packaging is great. It comes with a photobook of their tour as well as a nice box that contain pins of their name.

Best price and quality ever👌

Nice. Love it

私は1stツアー（東京・国立代々木競技場第一体育館の公演）、2ndツアー(さいたまスーパーアリーナ)、4thツアー（さいたまスーパーアリーナ、クリスマス、日本で最期のコンサート）の3本を購入しました。この３つには、好きな楽曲が入っているからでした。他の方のレビューのように1stツアーのBlu-rayはスイッチングが少し早いですね。少し観づらいかも。そして音質や臨場感もドルビーTrueHD（1st）とDTS-HD Master Audio（2nd〜4th）の差なのか？後発商品による音質技術や音声収録機の差なのか？国立代々木競技場第一体育館とさいたまスーパーアリーナの差なのか？は解りませんが、1stが1番音質的には微妙で残念です。ドルビーTrueHDを採用されているのだけど、2ndや4thのDTS-HD Master Audioを試聴した後だとかなりショボいです。悪くはないのですが、空気感や解像度、そして低域〜広域のバランス、音の移動感が2ndや4thの方が明らかに上質で聴いていて気持ち良いです。1stは低域がドスドスうるさ過ぎる。そしてボーカルなどの中域が少し弱いです！ちなみに私の環境は、数百万クラスの専用ホームシアターでフルバイアンプ7.2chです。追記2011年のコンサート作品という事で、少女時代のメンバーも20歳〜21歳。2ndツアー版（2013年のコンサート作品）の時に比べメンバーの身体が全体的に締まっている様に思います。2ndツアー版（2013年のコンサート作品）以降は、売れまくって食べてしまったのか？飲酒のし過ぎ？別にデブでもないし中肉中背なのですが、2013年度以降の作品ではスヨンとユナとジェシカとティファニーとソヒョンを除いて少し肥えましたよね。特にユリはどうしたの？2011年の時点ではとてもスタイル良くてバランス良く健康的だったのに。2011年版ではユリが1番スタイル良いな〜と思ってたのに。2013年以降の作品では確実に肥えたよね。デブではないけど。足が長く背が高いから問題ないけど。2011年度がめちゃくちゃ絞れているので勿体ない！顔がいくら細く見えても、ポニョるのって、下腹部、腕周り、股下〜太ももの太さやポニョさで解っちゃうんだよね。という事で、身体が絞れてるスタイルの良いユリを観たい人にはこのBlu-rayをオススメします♪

Für Fans des Jpop ist diese Bluray von SNSD / Girls' Generation ein muss.Leider findet man sowas auf dem deutschen Markt selten...

8年前にこのライヴを代々木とさいたまSAの２か所で体験しましたが、度肝を抜かれかなり興奮したことを今でもはっきり憶えています。１曲目から最後の曲迄、素晴らしいパフォーマンスで見所満載です。残念ながらこの作品には各メンバのソロが収録されていませんが、各人のレベルの高さに驚きました。また、日本では発売されていない曲を終盤にもっていくなど驚きのセットリストでした。傑作デビュー曲｢Into The New World(オリジナルVer.)｣を視聴できるのも日本ではこのライヴだけですし、ラストの「It'Fantastic(日本語Ver.)」は隠れた名曲です。私はここから少女時代へどんどん嵌っていくこととなりました(笑)５人になった今でも９人を応援しています！少女時代のライヴは毎回観に行きましたが、テヨンのソロはことごとくハズレ、いまだに体験できていません。映画館でライヴ・ビューイングをを観た時には、恥ずかしながら泣いてしまいました！
