Araki, nqrse, and meychan’s new year’s concert at Zepp Tokyo!! The guest was Amatsuki~ The new years’ theme was really cute!!
✦ if you buy 8000yen or more of merch you get to do a high five event with aranarumey after the concert!! so the merch lineup was kind of insane LMAO i got there at the 11am opening and waited uhhhh 3 hours….. and the charms i wanted were already sold out :') it's okay though because i still got some very cute items!!
✦ they handed us a gift going into the venue! a fortune and a badge~
✦ the set on stage was so cute!! food stalls, but the words on it were the band instruments. in the middle was a torii with a bell
✦ I was pretty far in the back, so it was a little difficult to see what was going on sometimes
✦ the three of them came out and sang some songs, both solos and in groups!
✦ first song was kami no mani mani!! a great way to start off a new years' concert~
✦ i distinctly remember meychan's limelight and aranaru roki, but there were a lot of songs i knew and actually a bunch i just heard performed yesterday at nori's one-man LMAO
✦ araki's hair is still SO PINK
✦ meychan said that his computer? phone? couldn't recognise his face after makeup LMAO
✦ araki’s venom was GREAT at the very end he said “MEH!!!” before running off stage
✦ narumey magnet!! after it ended, nqrse was like, "we need to do something for the ending instrumentals…." (because it's quite long) so someone told them to twirl their fingers at each other
✦ nqrse seriously considered it, so they got the band members to replay the end and did it while approaching each other from opposite sides of the stage…. at the end, their hands met and they awkwardly turned to look at us for the finish LOL nqrse was like deadpan "yes this is good let's do this the next time"
✦ they asked if we went to visit the shrines yet, and when so many people raised their hands for "no" they shouted that we were definitely lying LOL
✦ they got us to bow and pray? it was specifically a bow, bow, clap, clap, and lo~ng bow. they then rang the bell but either meychan or araki messed up the first time and they had to redo it
✦ when they finally did it properly, amatsuki appeared in the middle!! they said it was amazing because this is the first time the guest matched outfits with the rest of them…. they recalled how miko gero was terrible and called senra a bartender (he was in a really nice red suit in osaka)
✦ someone said amatsuki was still in the middle of his one-man tour so he must be really busy, and thanked him for coming
✦ amatsuki + araki marionette lovers!! amatsuki said it was an unexpected request but he's very happy he was asked to sing it!! they did the hand motions, which araki practised a lot, apparently. amatsuki did those breathing noises at the beginning
✦ THIS NIGHT AHHHHHHHH they were very cool!! nqrse also did the marionette lovers motions because he wanted to
✦ amatsuki's solo was chiisana koi no uta!! he was super cute and got us to sing a lot of it…. he also crouched all the way down and watched us with a smile as we were singing it was cute
✦ he's such a cute and cheerful performer, i enjoyed watching him~
✦ they did a few more songs after amatsuki left! aranaru did Will O Wisp and were super cool….
✦ araki's hibana was also so fun!!
✦ the last song was recollection endroll! all three of them jumped onto the platforms at the end~ just like the way they normally do it
✦ someone called meychan an okinawan fish because of his light blue and pink outfit
✦ someone said they skipped their coming of age ceremony (which was today) to do the concert LOL i think it was amatsuki
Encore
✦ They came back to the stage to sing erakute erai!they got us to wave our penlights/towels~ it's such a cute and cheerful song
✦ I don't know what it's called, but they wrote out calligraphy to a prompt! today's was "something you wish you could erase from the past year"
✦ nqrse took the longest and people kept pressuring him to finish LOL he messed up one of the hiragana
✦ amatsuki: "Airpods" (in english); during one of the XYZ performances, he went out onto the stage to start singing, but his ear monitors weren't working!! it turns out he never out them on and was actually wearing his airpods
✦ meychan: "koebu"; i didn't really understand his story that much but it's an app of some sort? and it closed down, but he still had money in it….?
✦ araki: "unagi (eel) pie"; this is like some sort of long biscuit made of pie pastry. i'm not sure what it has to do with regrets but until last year he assumed it was eel flavoured and thought that was really weird….. then nqrse was like "what?? it doesn't taste like eel?? to which the audience was like "eeeeh…???"
✦ nqrse: "ate too much rice"; he says he loves rice too much so he eats a lot and gains too much weight during winter. During the summer, he tends to eat noodles, and he only eats about a hamsters' worth, so he loses weight.
✦ they also get the band members to share their stories! araki lent them his mic. like half of them are drunken ones and you could still hear araki acting scandalised all the way from where i was
✦ one of them was a story about how one of them got really drunk, meychan handed him some grass, and he ate the grass, to which there was immediately a roar from someone of "ISN'T MEYCHAN THE BAD ONE HERE"
✦ we all take pictures to nqrse? saying "akeome~"
✦ to close, everyone sang shake it!! together!
✦ streamers were shot out in the middle of the song!! people were still scrambling to pick them up as they started MC so nqrse lectured us like "hey now, hey, i know you love streamers but which do you like more, the streamers or us???"
✦ amatsuki left the stage, and the rest of them took their time to say their goodbyes to us, visiting the sides and getting everyone to bow and pray again
✦ luz came up somehow, so araki stepped onto the middle platform and imitated him, then they made meychan do it but he clearly wasn't sure what he was meant to do and kept turning back to confirm with the other two LOL
✦ he did luz's call and answer part from secret answer「良く出来ました♡」and was his usual slightly awkward self about it but i think he did it quite well LMAO i still laughed though
Hi Fives
✦ lots of people stayed for high fives!! they kept us in the hall, and as we exited we passed by the table where aranarumey were planted
✦ nqrse was first~ he was so cute and gentle and he had some really flashy pink eye makeup going on omg he was so sparkly
✦ meychan seemed so tall……. he was very pretty i was kind of thrown off….. perhaps its the Youth
✦ araki was so loud and cheerful omfg i couldn't help but start laughing when i got to him… he was kind of bent down a little as well, to more or less match eye level with attendees
✦ i don't remember what any of them said LMAO probably "thank you" but it went by so fast

some flower stands i caught before leaving zepp!
