The new choreography really is straight up awful for all their Updated tracks. They changed it for the sake of changing it, when the old choreography is iconic, and the new choreography is just a mess of awkward movements. And that's saying a lot considering the state of the original choreography.
I hope after this tour, they never perform these new versions ever again. Complete wasted effort.

Well the new dance movement is nice, but i feel it doesn't really goes well with the old songs, suddenly it lack of a "dance along" feel.. As in, original love machine dance, its simple, but fans can definitely dance along, and that's what make MM and fans "close up" together during concert time, but now, they change everything, although it suits the current era well and they did it nicely, fans can't dance along to it. It's kinda weird seeing some of the fans still doing the old hand movement while the new musume is dancing to a whole new different hand movement..They should just leave all this new dance movement to their new song and future songs rather then messing up with the old hits. Although i can totally see them performing to this version if they are invited to any big music show.
it just pretty amusing to it, they been telling people they are the current morning musume, trying to separate themselves with the OGs. yet they re-recorded the old hits, and at the same time change all the dance movement. It's like trying to delete the history yet restoring back and deleting it again. =X
They're sending a really inconsistent message. They're supposed to be 今のモーニング娘。, leave the reboots in the Platinum Era and give us something new! It's so frustrating because they've had such great momentum with the last 3 singles all hitting #1, I'd hate for them to end the year on this note.
Some parts are really tacky, but some parts are really cool. Like the dance for Love Machine is heaps cool. Its not a complete wasted effort because it really shows off the new performance level of MM which most new fans want to see from them.
