This gig is my first Queen concert experience. I was a 15-year-old junior high school student at that time. My experience in there gave a strong impact to my life.
This bootleg is not "Mr.Fahrenheit (Wardour)" and "Pleasure Chest (Wardour)". Info on cover says "Newly found tape" complete show. So I think this bootleg seams to included a new tape source. However I don’t know it is true.
"Yattokame" means "Long time no see" in a Nagoya dialect, that is my hometown.

Thank you very much for sharing.
This is yet another bootleg of the 2nd audience source from 2010, except with slight compression and EQ'ing.
These guys didn't even fix the problem with It's Late...oh well.

Here's a fixed "It's Late." link
The right channel was running a half-semitone too slow (what a jarring listen), so it's been corrected!
Thanks for the upload btw!

i have a short question why bootlegs heaven in the japan?
Simple answer - because it's not illegal there.
I found that hard to believe so I googled:
"bootlegs are not illegal in japan"
Turns out it is illegal.
Prosecution is difficult.
This 1997 billboard magazine article explains the situation quite good: link

Good read.
So that one time in the 1990s they made an example out of a few guys because the RIAJ was upset, but that seems to be the exception to the rule. Clearly little has changed in the last 20 years, as Tokyo remains the epicentre for bootleg shops.
Give this a spin: link
It actually predates the article you posted, but it explains the overall situation pretty well. The major point is that the bootlegs are entirely of western artists, not of Japanese artists, which is why the authorities tend to let it slide. In the west we would call that a "decriminalized" status. It's like a half way to being legal, and they just look the other way.

I thought this one was a kind of improvement
There are indeed some slight differences.
This source is actually two different masters playing at once as a matrix, both taped by the same taper. See the story here: link
I just compared Best Friend from both copies. On the original copy the song begins as mono, as one of the tapes is being flipped. At :03, one of the sources kicks back in and it's a sudden edit in the right channel. On the bootleg this has been smoothed out, as there is a fade in back into stereo a couple seconds later. Perhaps there are other tape flips that have similar treatment.
They've also EQ'd it to add a bit more top end.
So sure, it's different and worth a listen, but it's not a "newly found tape" as it was marketed to be.
