Before "Kinenbi", Miki-chan is interviewed about Erika-chan. Before "Koucha Monogatari", Tomo-chan is interviewed about Miki-chan, apologizing for having her hair in curls. Before "Juunanasai", Erika-chan was interviewed about Tomo-chan. I enjoyed the Sakurai-san solo "Juunanasai" very much.
The second half of "Taiyou o Agetai", at a costume change, there was a significant delay in the music (drums only), and then the picture was overlaid with a dinner conversation interview with the three singers. Eventually, the music resumed quietly in the background. It was evident shortly before the cutaway that there was a "wardrobe malfunction" with Tomo-chan's costume. She was late back to the stage even after "Angel Fish" had started.
The "Lemon Hakusho" encore was nice, but it was irritating how offkey Miki-chan was. They all appeared exhausted after the end of all that dancing, yet that should not be an excuse. Yet, Miki-chan did very well in her solo earlier.
Despite the disappointing encore, this video is quite a treasure for Lemon Angel fans, and copies of both the VHS and LD version remain available once in a while on auction sites.
The Lemon Angel members are Sakurai Tomo (桜井智) , Shima Erika, Emoto Miki.
