Tsukipro Live Summer 2018 Part 2
🌜My memories is pretty foggy since it’s been 2 weeks. I’m relying on my past tweets and setlist. I have wrote some things about before the live in part 1.
EDIT: 4/7 I just remembered a highlight so I added it in. It will be marked by *.
Part 2. the Live
Arriving at the venue, we had our ID checks and received our tsukipro raincoats. We then saw the seating map. Prior to his, nobody knows what was the seating arrangement until the day of the live event. As I initially expected, there was no center runway (I think the reason could be the possibility of rain on the acts).
So heading to our block A11
Now sitting at our seat in block A11.
In front of our us was the left big screen (took the my pic from my twitter as somehow was not on my phone :|).
There was still half an hour left and the venue was really hot already. There was hardly any wind which could be the cause of it. The day performance meant to start at 11:30am but it was slightly delayed because a lot of people were still entering.
This is the set list for both day and night:
エリアル-Aliel- 魔法のキズナ Because you are Burny!!!

SolidS Commentary Back On Track Liar Crier
Quell Commentary ありがとう 蒼い水
Ending Commentary Dear Dreamers,
Unfortunately, my memory for the day time was pretty foggy because my body has not gotten used to the sudden heat change. My memories was better at night. Below I am gonna list some of the highlights from the day and night live.
Day
SOARA came out running on the stage and fire up with Aliel.
Growth came onto the stage in a uniform, majestic manner. Green fabrics were blown upward in the air the entire performance. Toki really dressed up like Kou, with a blue feather earring on his right ear.
QUELL came out in skinny white pants, and they all look hella fine in it. I became so emo that they did the exact choreography like the anime intro.
SolidS’ Burny!!! is just pure 🔥🔥🔥. Flame throwers and the song really makes everybody jump, dance and shout. My feet and throat were sore after that. 😅
During the member introduction, they talked about how sunny it is and also hot despite yesterday being freezing. Also all of them wore black shirt so they joked around they will suffer in the heat.
During Shu’s medley with End of Night, he attempted the moonwalk. Not exactly perfect.
During Soara’s Starting Line, giant bouncy ball from each side were to be bounced across to the other sides, unfortunately the wind got picked up and all the balls “flew” to the left side of the venue. Couple of staffs went around popping those giant bouncy ball and inside were gazillion of standard size balloons. Everybody scrambled to get one!
For Quell’s arigatou, Shugon harmonise an octave higher along with TakeP (Shu’s) part “Every moment with you”.
In the ending commentary, at Soara’s turn, Makonyan brought up about how he has been performing in his black boot and felt like 70 degree in it. The other Soara’s members went down to touch his shoes. Ono Yuuki commented “it’s 65 degree”.
During the announcement about the giant Arainu and Lizz, the price stated ￥9500 and ￥11500 respectively. Everyone was like “ehhh????”. It’s because of the premium tail they exclaimed. 😆
The end of the performance, confetti ribbons were fired but hilariously the wind carried majority of the confetti ribbons to the back of the venue. These confetti ribbons has character messages and signatures on it. The D blocks seaters all scrambled to the back to retrieve them. It was quite a sight! Some of them landed pretty high on those conifer groves. The confetti ribbons was in 2 colours. The gold is Alive and the silver is SQ.
Night
While we’re heading to our night session seats, we look at the furthest back seat, I think that was the SQS stage actors. Three guys in nice oufit at the far back. 😆 For the night session we sat in block A14. The view of the stage is crazy close. Just behind the frame and the SolidS banner, you could just see the side wing, where the acts and dancer prepare to go out on stage.
I chatted to the girls next me on my right whom were surprised we were from oversea and that we are also twins. The one sat right next to me is a Tsubasa fan, and her mate is a Shu fan. Yunor (my younger sister) sat the left of me, were surprised next to her was a fanboy, and he likes Shiki.
So onto the live events here are the highlights (I’m sorry this is Quell bias since Quell mostly on the right side of the venue):
Nogamin wore his Ichiru Lizz, dangle from the belt holder of his white pants on his right side. The Lizz did seem smaller than usual (later announced on twitter it was the their upcoming goods, the finger mascot Puppela).
I think Nogamin saw us during the member introduction 😖 (we had the penlights in twin colours the entire cast introduction).
Each groups did their special intro. SOARA - each member had a different pose. SolidS - did their back bending SolidS pose, apparently Hanae overdid it and hurt his back/waist. Growth - did their human evolution pose. Quell - did their “Kuberu” picking action. During Growth intro, I saw Quell discussing, it seem like they last minute prepare their introduction.
Before the medley, Tosshi going to have a sip of water, but there was a insect on his straw. Tosshi: "There is a mushi on my drink", Audience: (suprised) "eh?", Tosshi held up bottle and camera zoom in. The mushi was on the straw tip. Audience: big "ehhhhhh!!!!???
During the medley for With U, Murata change a line in the lyric inserting Chiharu name in it, Chiharu’s eye went wide and the camera zoom in on his expression.
TakeP did the moonwalk again. This time it was perfected!
In growth commentary, since Growth’s attraction ride is Fujiyama, Yamaya asked which of them are weak against amusement rides. Zunta put his hands up immediately, and Yamaya slowly put his hands up afterward. The other members retorted back at him “why you brought that up!?” 😆
In Soara commentary, the lyric change in With U was brought up and discuss why Chiharu use Murata instead of Taishi in his lyric change because “Taishi” would sound bad.
Soara announced their next song Starting Line but then went on discussing about how nobody paid attention to them since everybody was focused on the giant balls. They also talked about how all the giant balls in the day time live all flew to the left. They asked the audience which direction the wind is blowing. Everyone pointed with their finger/penlights to the left (in sync!)
After Startling Line was 三日月ファンタジア, and Makonyan pointed to the sky. The moon crescent was there! 🌜
SolidS commentary talked about how befitting their attraction ride “ええじゃないか” for Solids. They each had a go saying a fujikyu rides name in a sexy way. Mate, Soma was over the top sexy. I can’t remembers the names but Hanae’s one was “ ええじゃないか “
*They recorded a video message on their phone to Ume-chan. The audience also participated in it as well.* .
Quell commentary was short and almost nothing? because I think they got cut short because the other groups did chat for quite a long time.
Aoi Mizu was really high-energy. Nogamin went hard out (he did mention that is his favourite Quell song and he likes rock music), so his SideM Shiki pretty much came out. He even did this rockstar one leg dancing thing (like gif below left guy).
The announcement was the same like the day time, the reaction was different but funnier for the Giant Arainu and Lizz. People cheered at the announcement and laughed/giggled at the price. 😆
In the ending cast commentary, Nogamin move his Lizz puppela from his pants and held in his hand for the rest of the event. Shugon also held his puppela as well.
I think it was some Growth members and Ono Yuuki mention they would like to perform songs they have not perform before for the next live.
In the first half of Dear Dreamer, I saw Nishiyama cheek-hug Nogamin (like a mother hugging his son), it was so adorable 😍
The confetti ribbons was fired again but this time along with fireworks. It was brilliant.
There was some highlight part I can not exactly remember if it was from day or night live. Murata was so nervous that he accidentally shampoo his hair with body soap. Nogamin jumped in acting in his character, let’s get meat after the live. Daiki jumped out as himself with “うん". Murata afterward added, “For this live, I went without rice, meat or fish”. Daiki exclaimed “死んじゃうよ！”
I know this was in the night live but can not exactly remember when about, they asked the audience if we were at anybody got disturbed/annoyed by the bugs/insects. There were quite a number of people. I believe it was Murata mention there was a bug flying near him at one point.
This is much my memories I can recall, as the performances are the same for day and night. I did wish Tsukipro could have them sing different songs instead of repeated songs. Soara’s Friends and Quell’s Chiisana Sekai are definitely outdoor jams. I personally think they wanted more unit songs for their next live since restart series only have two for each group.
Unfortunately, I did not get to try any rides and the collaboration drinks as the queues were ridiculously long. I did made sure I got a pic with Ichiru. I thought about coming back the next day but it was raining pretty bad, and some FujiQ rides do close due to rain. We already have planned to leave the area the day after, nothing much can be do, but it was fantastic the day of live was sunny and clear!
And here is a pic I just taken now, this is what the balloon inside the giant ball looked like.
