As part of the NieR 10th Anniversary, the NieR:Theatrical Orchestra 12020 was scheduled to be held earlier this March, but unfortunately due to the Coronavirus outbreak, all concerts with a live audience were cancelled. The concert was performed and broadcast live on NicoNico and YouTube, however, and just the other day, the Blu-ray recording of that performance has been released.
If anyone is a fan of the original NieR:Orchestra Concert 12018 from summer of 2018 or the later international performances of the same setlist earlier this year, let me reassure you… this version is by far superior in almost every way.
This version also featured two unique recitation dramas (朗読劇 / roudokugeki), one for each segment of the concert which featured NieR:Automata and NieR Replicant.
The Blu-ray features English subtitles throughout the entire concert, for both spoken dialogue on the stage and for the backdrop screen. I would highly recommend this concert Blu-ray to any NieR fan.
If you are interested in purchasing the Blu-ray, you can order it from Amazon here.
