Trivia

• For the performance of "Intergalactic Bound", Miku will shout out the name of the city where the event is performed at during the "Let's dance with a rhythm from New York to Japan" part, with New York being replaced with the city's name. CircusP has confirmed that he has personally tuned this part for each location.
• The tour was the subject of online backlash, due to the fact that Miku and the other characters were displayed on a large LED screen, as opposed to using the original transparent hologram screen used in every concert.
