Probably the first live in a long time that I truly enjoyed. His stage presence, his costumes.. all of it is lovely. Only thing that would have been better is to see him live in person! *_*
Salon De Chocolat Customer Reviews
Kaya
I suggest all Kaya fans to buy this dvd. The video has very good quality and the sound is very clear. Kaya Sama looks so beautiful throughout the dvd and the dvd is so fun to watch! Please buy and support Kaya Sama.
This is a great DVD! The menu is pretty and the whole performance never gets tiring to watch. The filming itself could have been better, but that's not Kaya's fault. ;)
I honestly have never watched a concert DVD so much in my life, the choreography was fantastic and it really makes you want to dance along! There is absolutely nothing disappointing about this, and it was totally worth any amount of money!
It's about time us overseas fans can finally see one of Kaya's lives! I've heard many great things about his shows, but never got to experience one until now. It was all I had expected and more! He has such a presence on stage that draws in the viewer and doesn't let go. Seeing him interact and perform with Sizna of Sugar was also very fun (and hysterical when Sizna had his solos)! The only things I weren't too fond of were his back-up dancers; their choreography seemed very artificial and plastic. Other than that, the audio quality was very nice, Kaya sounding just like he does on his studio CDs (or better). The poster that came with the first press was an awesome addition! It's found its home in a frame on my wall now and I love looking at it everyday when I get home ^_^ Can't wait to see what else Kaya has in store for us in the future! Maybe he could treat us with a DVD of a show with Versailles? *wishful thinking* XD
I've watched the 'Salon de Chocolat' Live several times since I purchased it and it gets better each time! It starts with fantastic Chocolat B-Side Pourriture Noble which has Kaya encased in a giant dress. Kaya's various 10+ Dancers are also very skilled and know exactly what they are doing, with excellent choreography. In terms of Extras, Kaya speaks several times during the performance, with a long speech at the end before a bonus performance of Rose Jail. The 'Chocolat' PV is also a bonus that can be found on the menu. If your a big Kaya fan and love spectacular performances involving drag dancers and fan-service, then this is an essential, must-have purchase!
Rarely have I seen such a fruity and feminine male in the visual kei scene. Kaya seems quite fond of it, though. The DVD packaging is full of whites and pink, and his music is...well, maybe not as sweet-sounding as Perfume, for example, but it's poppy darkwave music. He entertains the crowd with dancers and a live guitarist. The concert isn't extremely long, but I think it's long enough. Besides, Kaya changes outfits three times, so there's enough to see. Sound and picture quality are all good, though the stage is a little dark at times. No problem, however. Good first DVD effort of Kaya. Next wish: Schwarz Stein DVD.
What else shall I expect from Kaya. this dvd shows he's just amazing on stage. He truly knows how to entertain us. Excellent product from plastic to video.
Oh I really loved this release, the live show is great, his voice has a lot of power and the choreographies are excellent and well performed (and his dancers are so cute!!! ^^) I hope Kaya makes another DVD of these next year or so, specially for his fans that are over-seas and can't go to his concerts until he actually goes out of Japan... The fact that disappointed me was that neither Hannya, Hydrangea or Paradise lost (which are my favourites) were included, but I love all Kaya's songs, so that is not a problem after all.
Perfect and sensitive. For what we know of the Kaya's work, this DVD will not disappoint, but "Funerary Dream" is not on the track list, what in fact left me sad! It is magical and lovely! I can not find more words to talk about this DVD and Kaya's performance, enjoy ! Thank so much Kaya, for your wonderful work!
Knowing the quality of Kaya's songs, live must be gorgeous !! I'm looking forward *o* I can't wait !
