Tweet: Thanks to the people who’ve followed me in the past few months. Nice to meet you, I’m Eve. It’s read as “ee-buh.” “Eh-beh” and “eh-bah” and “ee-vee” are all close, but not quite there. Though, I’ve been starting to feel like anything’s fine at this point. I’m in your care ✌
Instagram: It’s not “eh-buh,” it’s “ee-buh.”
*note: yes, ee-vee is in reference to pokemon lols
Good evening from the middle of the night, it's as if recently I've been taken over and started updating tumblr a lot, this is Eve.
Since the summer has passed and left, it’s finally become cool enough to work easily! (I’m always in a cool room though)
In terms of SNS, I only use Twitter instead of Line@ or Ameblo, so information gets buried....
Since my album is being released next month, I have to summarize everything! With that realization, I thought, ah! tumblr! let's update! lol
So I'm updating after a long time lol
In these past few days, I've been editing the top page (within my capabilities), so things like my album's instore events and etc can be easily checked◎
From now on I will do my best to organize the information on tumblr and preferably update more often! (preferably)
Since I've got poor vocabulary, there's a high possibility that it'd be hard to read but please be lenient with me in that area (bows)
And so, before the main topic, I uploaded a video yesterday.
I covered the song Yume Tourou by Radwimps, an insert song in the movie “Your name” which I went to see recently.
Kaisei-san mixed it for me. And while talking to him about the movie, we were saying things like, this song played in this scene~~ ahh simply amazing~~ im going to cry~~~. So Kaisei-san made the karaoke and gave it to me. And I recorded the song and put it together with the karaoke. Therefore making the karaoke and put a voice to the song started out as simple self-satisfaction. We were thinking ahh~~ Your name was so good~~ but since we made it, might as well.
It's simply a fan video, sorry. Sorry to fans of the movie! Sorry to fans of the music! But I also really like Director Shinkai and Radwimps!
It's uploaded on both youtube and niconico so please give it a listen if you have time.

I borrowed the picture from Natsuki-san, thank you.
Also one more thing, I started last week but I'm testing out game streaming using OPENREC.tv..!
I've only played horror games but, I'm thinking it'd be nice if I can stream in my free time. So take a peek^^. Please follow◎
By the way, the last three streams are recorded so if you'd like, please watch^^!
Recording for the album has finished, so a late summer vacation has started.
And celebrating the release of the album, I will be going to various places for instore events etc starting next month.
Really, I wanted to write more but, since I'm someone who doesn't do this often, even if I do my very best to write this entry, I get the feeling it won't continue into the next so I'm going to end it here today◎ lol
Eve: 座って作業ばかりだったので病院行こうと思って整体の先生にかかったのだけど
I've been sitting and working all the time, so I thought I should go see the doctor and went to a chiropractor but
整体のお兄さん『ここ痛いかも〜(^^) ここ痛いでしょ〜?笑顔(ぐりぐりしながら)』
Mr. Doctor "It might hurt here~ (^^) It hurts here right~? Smiles (as he presses down)
お兄さん『Eveさんの苦手な中臀筋はまた後でお預けしときますね〜 (^^)』
Doctor "I'll attend to Eve's oh so beloved hip bone later~ (^^)"
『』

Eve: ちなみに今は地獄の治療が終わっておじいちゃんとおばあちゃんに挟まれながら待合室で仏のような顔してるよ (^^)
By the way, hell's treatment has ended so now I'm making a face like buddha while squished between grandpa and grandma in the waiting area (^^)
Eve: なんか久しぶりの投稿でめっちゃどきどきした…笑
Since it's been a while (uploading), I was so nervous... lol
Eve: 投稿は毎回寿命を削られていくなあ・・・サビの後半クセになりすぎてウルトラナルシスト全開でいきました。RTやマイリスありがとう!よろしくです!
Every upload chips away at my lifespan... The later half of the chorus had so much individuality, I went full throttle in ultra narcissism. Thanks for the RT and mylists!
Eve: Foo!!って部分は歌ったあと必ずウチの猫がびっくりしてンニャオー!?!?ってこっち向いて鳴く現象が起こってました。
After singing the Foo!! part, without fail, the phenomenon that is my cat getting surprised and crying nyoo?!?! at my direction would occur.
“These past four years were reflected into the contents of the live.”
Utaite Natsushiro Takaaki and Eve's first two-man live "Natsueve! ~rainy~" was held on June 18 in Shinjuku ReNY.
“I think a different-us can be seen through the entirety of the live performance.” (Eve) “Since planning the two-man, the things we wanted to focus on increased as we discussed various things and most of it came true this time.” (Natsushiro) Like they’ve said in the pre-live interview, the live brought their experience from the past four years and a new-them together.
Used in front of the stage was a single theatre curtain. Holding true to the live name of “rainy,” the sound and projected image of drizzling rain added to the raising stir of the audience. Looking down from the second floor, you can see the band on standby and looks of nervousness on the two of them.
But, at the sound of excited screams when the curtain fell, their eyes sparkled and you could see their expressions instantly change into smiles. On hindsight, what they felt in their hearts had surely surfaced onto their faces. The two stepped forward after the curtain fell, and voices akin to shrieks met live-classic vocaloid songs “Yobanashi Deceive” “Idola no Circus.” In an instant, the audience was at a high.
Following that, the audience became one as they sang “darasuteira darasutei” with Eve in “Migi ni Ma Girl.” Playing the guitar himself in “Laiver” and the audience’s cry of “one two!” clapping in rhythm to “Nai mono nedari,” Eve ended his solo part with a look of content.
When Natsushiro reappeared, he proclaimed “….. my water’s not here” and Eve responded, “I spilled it during the first song. ‘Everyone jump! Ah…’ “ with a laugh. They chatted about the incident in a way typical of them, and even that sort of MC is unique to them specifically.
“Since the two of us are here again, is it ok if we sing together???” and another duet: “Yi Er Fanclub.” After bringing the audience higher with an interlude, singing from the crowd and jumping, the baton was passed to Natsushiro.
Just when you thought the heat in the venue had even further increased with “Tokyo, we’re gonna jump!!”, as a single ray of light illuminated Natsushiro, he sang HY’s “366 Days” packed full of emotion. And then, with the MV playing in the back, he enticed the audience with a powerful singing voice in (1st Single) “Chronograph.”
“Said to be our biggest task, the ultimately hard song.” Even though they practiced in the studio, Natsushiro got his lyrics wrong during the rehearsal. After the bitter episode was revealed, they sang “Noushou Sakuretsu Girl.” As a result, Natsushiro still got his lyrics wrong but with supportive cheers, he got them right and the crowd applauded.
In a certain sense, the audience created the stage they stood on too, and they finished the main live with “Kami no Manimani” together with the crowd. Everyone in the venue became one.
The two reappeared in response to a cry for encore. Looking back on the four years since they’ve met, they had a long MC in a quiet atmosphere about things concerning the live. When watching their easy going figures happily chatting, you’d think to yourself that they’d probably keep talking if they weren’t constraint by time.
“Well then, I guess we should go on with the last song….” Eve said reluctant to end, and they reached the grand finale of their first two-man with “Sugar Song and Bitter Step.”
At the very end, the part where Eve said “these past four years were reflected into the contents of the live” really got to me and eventually linked up with what the two said about also wanting to make and sing their own original songs. In these four years, the two have performed in various lives, performed their own solo lives, and uploaded a lot of utattemita videos.
The them that they’ve shown in those lives, and the vocaloid songs and J-pop covers that held meaning to them, were directly delivered to their fans on this day. I believe this live marks the end of these four years and the start of what’s ahead. I want to cheer on the them that do not settle with the present state and continue to strive and challenge. That’s what I thought from the bottom of my heart.
Eve: コンビニにて 店員『おきゃくさま〜あ〜すみません、こちら猫のおやつとなってましてあの』 ぼく『猫が食べます』 店員『ですよね』image
At the convenient store, worker “Ah, this is cat food” me “My cat will be eating it” worker “Of course”
Eve: 確かにこのラインナップならもしかしたらって思われたのかな 猫のおやつ食べたそうな顔してたかな
I guess if you look at the line up, you’d think that maybe... I wonder if I made a face like I’d eat cat food
Eve:【悲報】エアコンのリモコンがどこにも見当たらず本体の自動運転ボタンを押してみるが暖房が入ってしぬ
【Sad news】With the AC remote being nowhere found, I manually pressed the on botton but hot air came out. dies
