Description

Recordings of two live performances by Malice Mizer edited into a complete concert experience of the visual kei band’s third studio album "merveilles", filmed while on tour during 1998 at the Nippon Budōkan Hall (April 1) and Yokohama Arena (July 22) in Japan. The live video features an onstage cathedral set piece, theatrics, costume changes, and skits performed as openings/endings to songs. The final show of the merveilles ~Shuuen to Kisuu~ tour held July 22, 1998 at Yokohama Arena (featured in the film) would be lead vocalist Gackt’s last performance with Malice Mizer before leaving the band in January of 1999 and drummer Kami’s last live show before his sudden passing on June 21, 1999.
