Live Tour 2017 ~W Face~ is the seventeenth live DVD released by Japanese recording artist Koda Kumi. The tour coincided with her dual-release studio albums W Face ~Inside~ and W Face ~Outside~ and spanned for a year across 47 prefectures of Japan.[1] The tour began on April 8, 2017, at Fukushima Prefectural Culture Center and ended with a transfer performance on January 28, 2018, at Okinawa City Hall.[2] The DVD/Blu-ray debuted at No. 2 on the Oricon DVD & Blu-ray Charts, where it took No. 4 for the weekly ranking, remaining on the charts for twelve consecutive weeks.[3]

The live was released as a 2DVD combo pack,[4] a higher quality Blu-ray[5] and limited 2DVD+2CD[6] and Blu-ray+2CD combo packs.[7] The limited editions featured two bonus CDs, which housed the full concert's audio.

The performance that was utilized on the DVDs and Blu-rays was performed at Tokyo International Forum in Hall A on August 6.[8]
