We live! And with a report! Recently, (more like since this blog started) we’ve been into YuiKaori. Reading a full-length report is a different experience. So we asked for permission from Ichigotsumi-san (1523-san) to translate her live reports, and we are delivering the Aichi Report now!

The report below contains comments from the author, Ichigotsumi-san, and not from us, Seiyuuri staff. However there are parts of the report where an asterisk (*) will be left, and directly below it would be a [Translator’s Notes: ] further explaining the context of what is said, however most of the time there are external links inserted for further explanation/references. This one, is from us. We hope that you will enjoy reading this report as much as we enjoyed translating it!

I went to YuiKaori Live Tour 「HEARTY PARTY!!」 Aichi Live!!

Today, YuiKaori Live Tour 「HEARTY PARTY!!」 was held in Aichi.

I will write the report about the goods on another day.

It’s been 5 years since the last performance in Century Hall.

There is a slope, so the people behind could see the stage easily. I was on the first floor, row number 15. It was a better position than where Yui-chan is at, usually.

It started from PUPPY LOVE!!

It seems that they have been using PUPPY LOVE!! and WAKE UP!!song pattern to start, so it would be easy to get into the live, but I think they should change it already.

In my opinion, they would start with LUCKY DUCKY!!  Maybe it’s only in Nagoya and Osaka, but both of them just came out walking. I think it was too simple.  I was hoping it would be more fascinating since it’s the first song.

After that was MC.

Y: Everyone, konbanminoru~! We are YuiKaori!

K: I thought the live tour started earlier, though.

Y: I’ve been looking forward to today, so I’m really happy!

Y: By the way, today is 11/22, Married Couples’ Day, so they said! (While passionately staring at Kaori-chan)

Fans: FU~~~~~!!!!!

Y: Are there any couples here? …There is no one, huh? Like with your own family, for example. It would be nice if you get along well with them, isn’t it?

K: When we went to Nagoya this time, I found something really nice.

Y: Ahhh! I know! Let me guess!

K: Yes, go on!!

Y: It’s the catering!

K: Pinpo~n! It seems that there is a lot of miso here.

Y: That one covered with miso…What was it again? It had entrails in it.

Fans: Doteni!!!

Y: It’s called Doteni? Why Doteni? …Oh well. You know, I like kishimen~ Before this, I heard that people from Aichi Prefecture love Doteni udon stew, but not kishimen so I was worried. But then I saw a kishimen store at the station so it might be different from what I heard.

K: Eh? There’s one at the station??

Fans: Yes, there is one!!

K: Kishimen was really delicious! (It seems that she ate some from the catering)It was the first time I ate it. I like udon, if it’s udon, I can eat until six bowls. Kishimen is flat, doesn’t it look like udon? But it’s thick and elastic, it’s delicious!

As someone who likes miso as Yui-chan, nice food from Nagoya must be really irresistible. By the way, because Nagoya’s Doteni uses red miso, they also talked about wanting to try Osaka’s white miso Doteni (if I’m not mistaken, it’s called Doteyaki in Osaka?).

Next is “Our Song.”

It’s been about two years since the last time they sang this song on their 1st LIVE TOUR “WAKE UP!!” It’s a song about how the both of them competed on who is more adult-like. The content hasn’t really changed since two years ago, but because it’s a childish song, should they really sing it now? When I thought about it, it’s like, “The time has come!” In my opinion, this song is similar to “Yubikiri Calendar” and “marble,” which are symbolic songs in terms of YuiKaori’s relationship. It’s been a while since I could see their rivalry, I’m glad.

Continuing with HEARTBEAT ga Tomaranai! and Intro Situation and then a VTR.

[Pajama Party Corner]

Both of them are wearing pajamas, trying to shoot a roulette with some ingredients written on it using a bow gun’s arrow. (Both of them said its archery, but I think its bow gun.) Both of them can shoot three arrows, and make a “Party Drink” from the ingredients they hit. And then, if two of three staffs say that it’s delicious, the challenge is successful. If they succeed, they will get top quality mangoes.

First, they discussed about what kind of ingredients they will aim at.

According to Yui-chan who is recently into studying about smoothies, a smoothie made of banana-peach-tomato is good, so they decided to aim at those.

[First shoot]
It started from Yui-chan. Somehow the roulette suddenly stopped, “That’s odd? I wonder why.” She said with a composed expression and shot the banana.

[Second shoot]
Kaori-chan. For the second time, the roulette stopped again. Isn’t it broken!? She aimed at the roulette that lay still and shot the peach.

[Third Shoot]
Yui-chan. This time, the roulette continued to spin, since at least half of it are already taken, she was able to perfectly aim at the tomato

“I will be an archury* athlete!” She said with delight. It’s archery, Ogura Yui-san. I mean, that’s a bow gun…

[Translator’s Notes: She actually said it. It is not a typo.]

They put the three ingredients they got into the mixer, added syrup and water then mixed it. The result was three out of three staffs said it was delicious. They got the top quality mangoes.

After the VTR, it was Yui-chan’s solo corner.

She sang “Tinkling Smile.” Including Anisama, it’s the second time she sang it, so I feel that the call isn’t settled yet.

Y: With that, it’s the solo corner~ this time; all of the costumes are really cute. They made me my ideal costume, it has become all frilly and cute like this~ and I rarely let my hair down! (The straight and settled one) Everyone, which [hairstyle] one do you like?

Fans: Anything!!!

Y: Eh? Anything? (laughs). By the way, my hair has grown really long! Even my friends say “Yui, your hair has grown really long.” You know, there was one girl who has really long hair at school. When I say, “My hair isn’t as long as that girl’s~” my friends would say, “No, no, yours is longer now!”

Y: I thought, “There they go again~ (laughs.)” When I saw my recent photos, it really has become long. I just went “Ha~!!” I was really surprised. People who have long hair might understand this, but long-haired people don’t usually realize how long their hair has grown… I want to have a haircut~

Fans: Eeehhh!!??

Y: Don’t say “Eeehhh!!??” like that. I won’t cut it that much. If it’s only this much, (around 10cm) it’s okay, right? When it becomes a hindrance to my daily life, I will be troubled. So I’m unsure.

Fans: The one right now is still okay.

Y: Right now is okay? I see. Oh, right, I was going to talk about Carrie-san’s inside story.

Y: In between the tour’s rehearsals, it’s a bit late to say this now, but we’re into Tsumtsum* lately. Carrie-san started playing it first though. I’m bad with PC and machines, but because Carrie-san could handle it, one would think that she would be good at Tsumtsum, right? But no matter how much she tried, she would never get above 120000 points. Even though I could get 800000 points at my best.

[Translator’s Note: Disney TsumTsum is a LINE game. Both Seiyuuri staff play it right now. It is oddly addictive.]

At first I was looking at her while thinking “maybe it’s because she hasn’t gotten used to it yet?” But because she [her score] didn’t change at all, I told her to try it from my phone and it still didn’t get well. Next time, I borrowed Carrie-san’s phone and tried it. I broke her high score. It seems like the main problem is in Carrie-san herself.

And then, right now there is an event for that game, right? (Looks like its called Villains Battle). We played it together on the Shinkansen, and we got a new Tsum! With that, I think Carrie-san’s Tsumtsum level would rise.

Losing to Yui-chan, just how bad are you, Kaori-chan… lolol

Y: The next song is an arranged solo version of a YuiKaori song. It’s called “sugar time ver.” By Ookubo Kaoru-san. It has become a really sweet song. Please listen to it. “Hatsukoi Maze.”
Did you say Yui-chan’s “Hatsukoi Maze” solo!?!?!?

It had a similar impact to when she sang StylipS’ “Hatsukoi EVOLUTION” in solo. It’s my most favorite song, sang by my favorite person, Yui-chan. This is the life. I stood up straight and stared at the stage so I could devour the song completely. I wonder if [the setting] will change depending on the venue? If so, I look forward to it. (*^_^*)

Next is Kaori-chan’s solo.

Everyone’s penlight movement was in perfect sync for “Sunny Ray Beam!!”

K: Aren’t you all very in sync!? Could it be that you watched the BUNNY FLASH BD*, then came here??

[Translator’s Notes: Released last October 8th, was YuiKaori’s first live tour in DVD, BUNNY FLASH. During the concert, Kaori taught the audience how to do the hand choreography for her solo song, “Sunny Ray Beam!!”]

K: It seems there was an inside story a while ago. I heard about my Tsumtsum score being so low. I was trying my best, you know!? So if you collect coins for 30000 points, you can pull a lottery draw. You can get rare Tsum characters. I tried so hard to collect the coins, but when I pulled the lottery draw, I kept getting common characters. Was it Cheshire the Cat?

Once, I got a rare character, that, Dumbo. It seems that it has a skill that wipes out the screen from top to bottom in one go, but I couldn’t use it properly.

K: Then, I will do an inside story, too. From your perspective, what is Yui-chan’s image like? Cute? Kind?

Fans: Sexy!!!

K: Sexy!? Somehow I heard some weird answers though. For me, Yui-chan is a cute and reliable person but suddenly she said, “Carrie-sa~n~ piggyback me~ Let’s change “Our Song’s” last step so you can carry me on your back.”

Then I said “Eehh!? Then after this move, I should piggyback you like ‘heave-ho~!!’?? It might wear me out, or worse we might fall!!

And then, it seems that Yui-chan changed her shampoo recently. She told me, “Carrie-san, smell my hair~ It smells so good doesn’t it!? *sways hair*” But it really did smell good. One thing or another, it was a really beneficial role for me. At every opportunity, she makes me smell her hair.

Grr!  Aren’t you just boasting!!

What kind of side benefit is that…! She really is being pampered, that Ishihara-san. She really did get all the benefits… I’m really jealous…

Then, Kaori-chan’s YuiKaori song solo was “Shiny Blue -raitoon dream ver. – I thought that it was supposed to be “right on dream,” but “ride on dream” is also possible, so it’s kinda suspicious. I must double check when the Animelo Set list comes out. This song was arranged by Shunryuu-san. Maybe Ookubo-san is in-charge of Yui-chan and Shunryuu-san is to Kaori-chan.

The original tempo got slowed down, so it’s no longer the same rhythm as the original song, but it’s a good arrangement. My opinion might change if I get to hear it again.

[PARTY PRESENT Corner]

They chose Christmas presents from the general store. They looked at various things while talking about the previous Christmas gifts that they’ve received up to present. They both chose a “Laid back Santa Snow Dome.” They chose that because they said that it matched their laid back personality. I thought about it, “For whom are these presents for?”  The roulette began to turn around. It had seat numbers on it. There were three people who got selected, they got called one by one. Congratulations to the people who got presents.

After the VTR, it was MC.

They appeared from both left and right of the upper first row of the castle-like set.
They stepped down from the loosely curved, and painted staircase. Kaori-chan looked like a princess, while Yui-chan looked like Alice in Wonderland.

Firstly, Kaori-chan. She walked like a small bird, a small bird walking down the stairs. No matter how you look at it, it is Ishihara Kaori-san.

Next was Yui-chan.

She looked around restlessly and leaned on the side [of the stairs]. She stepped down the stairs as if surveying the surroundings, as though she was lost on her way. I think it’s because she’s accustomed with her solo MV, for me, Ogura-san wins this round.

K: Some time ago, the Pajama Party video was shown, right? We made smoothies.

Y: That, at first it was a plan to get us to drink a bad combination of juice, but we were opposed to it.

K: They said that it would be boring if we just drank normal juice!

Y: We will definitely make a delicious one! We won’t let ourselves fall for the Adults’ expectations!

So it ended up being something that was beneficial to the two of them… As usual, the staff has spoiled them again. (^^;)

Y: That roulette’s rotation was stopped, wasn’t it?

K: But it was hard to hit it, so it’s amazing that you can hit it! The roulette didn’t stop, did it? It’s only because your field of vision sees it as spinning!* (meaning uncertain) But still, Yui-chan was able to hit the tomato!

[Translator’s Notes: In Satsunyan’s opinion, Kaori might’ve meant that, in general, your field of vision is always in motion, so it’s hard to hit a moving object. Which is true.]

Y: That’s right! That was really amazing! Do you all understand!? I said that I wanted to be an archery athlete, right? It supposed to be archery. (laughs)

The Staff entrusted this MC to YuiKaori and they can do as they like in it. But when they started playing “Red light, Green light” even if they didn’t know the rules, it tediously ended. The silly and my pace atmosphere, it was undeniably what defines YuiKaori. Lol

Continuing again, the next song is “Futari.” A song that was around the same time as “WAKE UP!!” It’s a wonderful song describing the two girls’ friendship. I want more songs of this kind. After “Koisuru Stole” a VTR is shown again.

DANCING PARTY

In my opinion, this VTR is the highlight of this tour.

It was a video of nothing but about YuiKaori dancing to several types of cool dances. That’s right! I was waiting for this kind of YuiKaori! Kaori-chan was doing hip-hop dance, too. Even though Yui-chan said that she isn’t very good with this kind of dance, she worked hard to do it, too.  Both of them had been practicing dance since they were kids, so they already had the basics. So I thought they could cope up with this, too. And Yui-chan really has a flexible body, doesn’t she? Her hip movements were really amazing. This VTR, if it’s out on BD, I want to watch it endlessly.

After that, it continued for a while longer to Dancing Time. Then, it was the dance number that had the most intense momentum “VIVIVID PARTY,” then the combination of cool and sexiness “MIRRORING DESIGNS,” and a song that we could jump to, “Attoutekina GO!!” they didn’t even have time to take a breather.

K: I knew everyone here could do a jump song! This live’s generation! Isn’t this something new?

Y: A while ago, “DANCING PARTY” was being shown. Everyone likes that kind of YuiKaori too, right?
Fans: We like iiiiiit!!!!

I really like it.

Y: It was our first time doing that kind of cool dancing.

K: It had a different genre with the other songs so far, right?

Y: Not just cutesy, if we could do something like this is, that’s good, too, right?

K: I think it will be a spice for YuiKaori from now on.

After that they talked about their self-produced charms for this concert. Why does Kaori-chan’s charm use a bear? If you look at the pamphlet you will know why. There was a shot where she was holding a teddy bear on the pamphlet, but there was nothing about it on the interview. My assumption is that she was told to, “Please design something,” but she couldn’t think of any, and by chance the photo of her using a teddy bear was near her so she used that. How about it?

After introducing some of the goods, it was the first performance for the new song “NEO SIGNALIFE.”

After we saw that dance VTR, they said that it was an ELECTRO DANCE TUNE. I thought it would be more intense than VIVIVID PARTY! First time I heard it. I was like, “Hm…” It’s neither good nor bad. The chorus was too weak, it lacked impact. I hoped it was more piercing. Something that would make us want to fly. Otaku would always want to jump.

Before encore it was “Our Steady Boy” and “LUCKY DUCKY!!”

This time, Kaori-chan didn’t fly away somewhere~ lol*

[Translator’s Notes: From one of YuiKaori’s guesting in a web show hosted by Washizaki Takeshi called “2h,” during their birthday live “INTRODUCTION,” although they’ve been performing “Our Steady Boy,” all their life, since it’s their first song and they’ve memorized the choreography by muscle memory, Kaori made a choreography mistake. Instead of doing the “Birthday Live Choreography” she did the “BUNNY FLASH Choreography” instead. In the Birthday Live choreography, the two of them were supposed to stay in the middle, but as how Yui phrased it, “Carrie-san suddenly flew to one side.” Reference: 金曜2h ゲスト:ゆいかおり部分のみ(2014.10.03) 24:00 ~ onwards]

The encore was opened with an MC.

Y: Because we’ve been doing an ‘in-store event’ (?) recently, I keep trying to remember about “how does a tour feel like again?” while doing all the rehearsal. I was worried because it’s been a while since the last time we did a live, but its fun. I think I will run swiftly with full speed until the end, it will be a nice tour.

K: Until this day came, whether it was rehearsals, work or college, all I could think of was “I can’t wait for it to be the weekend already.” But as the day approached, I became nervous over it. I was listening to the songs on the train, but the songs just wouldn’t go into my head, even the lyrics wouldn’t come at all. But the moment I saw Yui-chan, I went back to my usual self. I was already back to my usual self when we were riding the Shinkansen.

Y: What? A Confession? (laughs) That’s true. When we met this morning, I was thinking, “Is Carrie-san alright?”

K: Really? But, when I saw your face today, I immediately thought, “I can do this!”

Fans: FU~~~~~!!!!!!

Y: I actually overslept today. I was feeling confused and panicked, but it was a miracle that I was able to arrive early.  That’s why I thought, “I can do this!” And then, when I saw Carrie-san, “I’ll be fine♡” I had that kind of feeling~♡ I’m really glad that we were able to have a really good time today.

What? Speaking fondly of each other!?

These girls really are the best, oi, I was listening to them while unconsciously doing a pose like a young maiden dreaming of something. It was really creepy.

The first encore song was “Jumpin’ Bunny Flash!!” and the last encore song was “Hoshi Furu Yoru no Happy Link.” On “BUNNY FLASH!!” the hall was only bright white for “Jumpin’ Bunny Flash!!” But because this time the penlight only has pink and blue, it became pink, blue, and white jumbled together. It was fun copying the “Hoshi Furu Yoru no Happy Link” dance moves (*^_^*)

It’s been a while [writing] for a YuiKaori live.

It’s like what Yui-chan said, because I started to feel that the mini lives are insufficient, today was really fun! It’s been a while since the last time I had muscular pain in my entire body…lol

I think I can see the dances and costumes that I wasn’t able to carefully see on the Osaka Live.
That’s all for the Aichi Live report.
