So can we talk about Predia? Me and my girlfriend went to see them on 11/03 at the Weekend Night live and they were amazing. It was such a good night. We couldn’t work the ticket system online (as it was one per person and we had three of us) so we went to buy tickets on the day.
There was a small queue for get the AKIBA CULTURE theatre and we raised a few eyebrows with fans (sadly, I don’t think Predia get a lot of foreigners at their lives ;;). The doors opened and we bought our tickets - and then went to buy merch. We bought two photosets and a light stick. With the goods you got a ticket for every 1000yen you spend which you could trade for a meet and greet/autograph/2shot. You go in number order but we were confused - luckily a Japanese fan pointed out when we could go in!
We got in and managed to get a seat and the theatre is small, and very cosy. There was a support idol group - Yururirapo and they were adorable! I’m going to look into them!
And then Predia came on and my god they are gorgeous irl. They are so talented and just…so sweet. They played for an hour and it was Reiko’s birthday live (well the first one after her birthday) so there was a fan handing out light sticks telling us it was for the last song before the encore (Mr K). And then we got an encore.
After that, we were a bit confused about how the event worked. We sat and watched as the girls came out on stage to set up the table - Yuu spotted us in the small crowd (there was a handful of men just sitting around and walking about) so I waved to her and she waves excitedly back ;;;;;
Now at this point, me and my gf had two tickets each for the 2shot. And we assumed the meet and greet was for one member but no… the fans could meet all of them. I ran to the merch and bought another photoset each and then came back. A Japanese fan behind us in the queue then told us ‘you have one ticket, you meet them all’. At this point we were getting nervous thinking, 'what have we done???? What will we say???’
So I went first, and it was sakurako. She is one of my favourites and she is GORGEOUS. and I was star struck but I managed to tell her I was from England and that I loved Predia and i came to Japan to see them! I kinda reiterated it to all the girls ;; cause I didn’t know what to say but they were all impressed. When I told Yuu I was from England she said 'I AM JAPANESE. I AM NINJA’ and did throwing star moves. I melted. She was adorable and crazy. Rumina is gorgeous but I heard she knew English, however she only spoke Japanese to me ; and Reiko (who looks and sounds like Acchan) was adorable! She was just so cute and cuddly. They were all so happy.
Then we got to go back to our seats, where a lovely little Japanese man spoke to us and asked us where were from - he spoke to my gf first but because it was an idol fan, I spoke to him a little bit more about them ^^ I said I liked AKB48 and he got out his phone and showed me his music and pointed to Heavy Rotation! I told him Yuko was my Oshi and then he asked about idols overseas - so I showed him my pictures with ladybaby and Dempagumi! He then left and said a cute 'mata ne!’
After the meet and greet there was a chance for an autograph with a girl of your choice provided you had a ticket. We didn’t have the money to buy anymore cause we hadn’t counted on these events being so cool! So we waited and then saw a few fans taking photos with them so we got up.
Now I wanted a photo with Rumina but after Yuu’s attention and her cute YA! HOI at me and the ninja moves captured my heart ;; when I handed my ticket over the man told Yuu I wanted a two shot and she said basically, 'AHHH English girl 2shot???’ It was so cute and then she hugged me ;;;;;; I literally wanted to melt. I said thank you and sat back down.
After my gf had met Aki and got her 2shot, we left and just felt …amazing. It was such a lovely live and the event afterwards was amazing. Predia are a group I recommend and they are just beautiful girls inside and out. I’m going back to Japan next March so I hope to see them again!
Oh and when we got back to hotel, we checked Twitter and the fans were talking about us! About how there was a 'foriegn threesome’ at the live and how rare it was! They were so nice after the initial shock.
I want to do it again so badly (Ŏ艸Ŏ)
