Taking the year-end by storm, YuiKaori did a marvelous Kabedon (壁ドン lit. Wallpush) in their 2014 Live Tour, HEARTY PARTY! In its last day in Makuhari Messe, Chiba. We previously translated a detailed live report by 1523-san. The concert was also released in DVD and BD last June 3, 2015. Leveling up their friendship, gay, bonds, the audience had managed to persuade the two to create their own versions of the popular ‘Kabedon.’ Not to mention, in this release, we also manage to learn more about their favorite phrases/buzzwords in the year 2014!
Some of the notes in the videos are too short to fit the correct meaning. Below are an expounded version of them.
Notes:
Suspension Bridge Effect – The suspension bridge effect is a “misattribution of arousal”, in which someone experiences the effects of fear of a physical danger while meeting someone, and mistakenly believes that the other person is the cause of their physical responses (such as elevated heart rate, shortness of breath).

O-prefix – O- is often added before the name of the person to express respect and politeness to that person. Source
Ishihara Kaori often calls Yui-chan, “O-Yui-san” or “Ogura-san” as part of her playful personality towards her.
Kabedon (壁ドン) – “kabe” meaning “wall” and “don” being the sound of someone hitting a hard object–like a wall. Source
There are different kinds of don as well. Such as yukadon (床ドン), Beddon (ベッドドン）etc. You may read this article to find out more.
