Good evening Good evening It’s been a while since the listening party! How is everything? The Miyagi performance is about to start, so everyone, are you ready? Right now, I’m in the studio practicing. This is my first time in Sendai, Miyagi. I’m kind of nervous about it but also looking forward to it. Have any of you been to Sendai? Anyone in Sendai able to come? I’ll be waiting! Please be careful coming. Only two more performances left, So far, Osaka, Shanghai, Fukuoka Has anyone from those places come? The MOONOVA tour that started in August… Time flies, it’s already October. Today’s October 1st. Time really flies, huh? Do you have any memories from them? For me, I’ve found some special memories in each show, each one has something a little different and wonderful Each region had its own atmosphere, and there were local dialects too. Since I don’t usually hear dialects in Tokyo, it felt kind of strange but also fun. I really enjoyed those things. There were also a lot of people who came for the first time, and many of them were locals, which really left an impression on me. I’m really glad I was able to visit those places, there were encounters I could only have by going there. I truly savored every moment. Which performance was your favorite? Yeah, there were really a lot of people in Osaka and so many speaking Kansai dialect! Some of my friends speak Kansai-ben too, so it kind of rubs off on me. I can’t actually speak it, but when I’m around them, I somehow start to, and I’m like, ‘Huh? What was that?’ There are moments when I realize I’m talking differently and feel a bit embarrassed. Dialects are so cute. The Fukuoka dialect was really cute too… From Thailand. Are there any people from overseas? Are you watching now? Thank you.. ah something appears. I’ve been to Shanghai a few times, but I was really happy to be able to experience the heat and the burning passion of the West. It was like WOOOAA I really think every single performance was so much fun. When you go to places like the countryside, you can enjoy the local food right there, and you can go even if it’s half for the trip itself, so tours are pretty great too. What was interesting about the encore was that the audience chants during the encore were different at every single performance. We were actually mimicking them together from behind, you know. I’m wondering what it’ll be like in Miyagi. When they said things like ‘Yoisho” I was surprised, but it was kind of cute. Thank you, maybe next time I’ll try saying it out loud backstage. Now, it feels like we’re already in autumn clothes. It suddenly got cold, and those super hot days feel like a lie. Everyone’s switched to fall outfits yet? Thank you for working hard today! Short sleeves still? You must have just come back from a hot place, huh?そうだね 次会う時は みんなもう冬服にな By the next time we meet, everyone might already be in winter clothes. For each show, people really put thought into their outfits, customized goods dyed their hair in Yuluna colors, and had their own unique fashion styles, which I really enjoyed Seeing everyone like that even made me like nail art more and inspired me with ways to change things up As for T-shirts, I also customized my own merch T-shirt a bit… Did everyone notice? My style changes a bit from show to show, fashion and makeup too. Miyagi will be another different place, so I’m really excited to see what the Miyagi/Sendai Pit will be like. I’m excited and can’t wait to see everyone! What really made me happy was that there were people coming for the first time. At first, there were comments on SNS like, ‘Is it okay if I go alone?’ But when those first-time attendees came to the venue, the Yuluna members sitting next to them were so kind they enjoyed the show together with them, explained things like the light colors and even became friends with them. Seeing that kind of community form really made me happy. I really felt the kindness and warmth of Yuluna. We were so happy too. Thank you! Most of the shows so far have been at live venues for the Moonova Tour, but Tokyo Finale will be held in a theater, so I think it’ll offer a different kind of fun.The atmosphere will be different too, and I’m really excited about that. Please come and enjoy it with us until the very end! I’m waiting for you. I hope we can all make lots of memories together. Today I’m doing a TikTok live, so I thought I’d sing a little bit. I can’t believe it’s already down to just Sendai and Tokyo. I’m kind of being hit by the reality that there are only two shows left. Well then, today I’ll do a short TikTok live. Let’s make it a nice time together, even if just for a bit. Give me a minute, let’s me have a drink. What song do you think I’m going to sing? Everyone listens to the mini album Twinkle? Let’s start with Twinkle. You want to sing together? Let’s sing! I’m going to show you the dance moves so you can copy me on the day, so everyone, try to follow along! I did it! This, you see, is TWINKLE’s signature move. I would love it if we could all perform together at that venue, so please practice. “TWINKLE” is really about those moments when we forget how to dream、 A song that reminds you of the dreams you once had, the dreams you lost, and the ones you’ve forgotten. Because it’s a song filled with that kind of sparkle Please listen to it, let it give you a push on your back, and move forward with confidence. I’d be happy if you could listen to it with that kind of feeling in mind. YOLO is playing right now. I often see you on SNS making videos with the songs attached, and I watch them. It’s amazing, I was really moved by how beautifully you edited the videos together. Thank you so much. I hope you keep making more and more. Okay, the next song is called ‘Jelly’. You like it? Jelly’ is really a bittersweet love song about a girl who can’t reach the voice she imagines, so she can’t help but want to sing Have you ever been in love like that? ね。 The lyrics of the song ‘Jelly’ are quite realistic, expressing a girl’s jealousy, pain, and inner conflict, and I hope everyone can relate If there’s any part that resonates with you, try listening while connecting it to your own feelings. Thank you. Jelly Jelly Jealousy Right now, there are a few parts I’d like everyone to sing along to, like the chorus Jelly Jelly Jealousy The part that goes ‘1, 2, 3, 4’ like that I’d be really happy if everyone could sing along together.” There were a few comments saying they saw Chii-chan a bit, how did you know? How did you know? There’s no mirror or special effects or anything Yes, You’re right. She’s behind the camera. The two songs just now are in the Twinkle Mini album. Please listen a lot, and come have fun with us on the tour. “Want to meet Chipi” Chipi is becoming popular. It’s not a big deal. Thank you Even on the fan club, I write all sorts of things on the blog like memories from the tour, so please check it out there Well well well, our Chipi is playing such a beautiful melody! So happy This studio holds a lot of memories for me, but I wonder if now is a good time? It’s okay right. Thanks you. Something appears. This is a studio full of memories, I actually used to practice here all the time before my debut. There are still a few songs that never took shape and never made it out publicly, but they’re very precious to me, and I can still remember them even now They’re saying that I might cry. You’re right. You know, I’ve been working together with Chi-chan for quite a while now. Everyone already knows, but I want to talk a bit more. We’ve been working together for over eight years, and I only started really engaging with music three years ago. We’ve been together for a long time, but it was only three years ago that I’ve really started moving forward as musician. And last year, I started fresh, getting my environment set up and moving forward in a new place. But truly, being able to work with such irreplaceable members is an incredibly happy time for me. Before I knew it, a year and a half had passed, more than half a year had passed. The days just keep adding up, but I really want to share them with everyone so that’s how the MOONOVA TOUR came to be. We created it. Beautiful~ Actually, I was also saved by Chi-chan’s piano, and from there, I found joy and comfort in music. Even now, when I think about it, I get teary-eyed, and it shows on my face right away. But I really hope I can make it to Tokyo. I really want to cherish everyone, both the fans who always come to see us and the new fans who are coming for the first time. So for the Tokyo performance, we’re looking forward to meeting lots of people, and we’ll prepare as much as we possibly can. I got to talk along with such a wonderful piano. Ehh you did me a favor~ Please come visit us again. Well then, thank you for spending this time with me. Let’s meet again. Next up is the Miyagi performance~. Bye-bye.
