Good evening!

It started last month, and lasted 14days,
and I have completely finished all of them,
Ogura Yui 1st LIVE TOUR “High-Touch☆Summer” 

To everyone who went to the live,
who cheered,
and to those who supported the live, thank you very much!!

Although it’s a little late…
I’ll write about my impressions about the live

This time, as a solo

I was able to do my first live tour, and
It’s been almost a year since my first live 

With the excitement that is my first tour,
The emotion whereas I wanted to show everyone my growth from last year, the first stop was Makuhari Messe, a large stage, and to top it off, it was 2-days, a large hurdle.

It really, was a live tour where I had to face a lot of my own emotions.

A tour, the first time as solo,
I went to perform in places other than Tokyo.

In districts, that’s  a little different in their own way
I was able to perform with happiness
as I was wrapped in a warm atmosphere!

To be honest, the tour was very long,
it also piled up with my college’s test period, and I need to strengthen my physical condition and my health during those periods…
In the middle of it, when I hurt my leg, I was almost emotionally discouraged…

But beyond all that, there are a lot of you who are waiting for me in this tour.

That is, the me up to now who previously couldn’t see the way, even though I’m anxious, I believed and went forward with the things I worked hard for, with this I’m glad that I did all this, it was a sign.

That’s why, I already said it during the live, but
To me, everyone is my treasure(^-^)

Having everyone cheer for me, this fact is enough for me…
that’s why I have a lot of feelings
of wanting to meet those expectations… !

And up to now, for me
Of course there was pressure…
But through this tour I realized, that more than anything, it has become a big power to myself… I felt that I’ve grown a lot.

Although little by little,
I can surely confirm that in this tour,
I was able to meet a ‘me’ that was different from last year!

And compared to the last tour, the presentation of the live,
and it’s subject, has advanced even further…!

But then, I still think that
there are still parts of me is still inexperienced…

I want to grow more in my way of expressing, in a
more technical aspect
I want to widen my ways of expressing myself

And at the final day of the live, in Gunma.
My next aim as a solo,
is to go on a tour again,
to expand my activities overseas,
and to be able to perform in Budoukan
as solo!

As for the tour, it’s not just to be able to go to other places
but I also want to go to different other regions,
Also lately, there seems to be a lot of support coming from overseas fans, me too, I also want to go overseas, I want to meet fans outside of Japan…!

And a solo Budoukan live!

But first, lately it seems that they’re lessening the places to be used for lives
Can we secure the place…? Is the question… laughs
And that, I’d like for the adults to do there best…! laughs

If possible, we want to achieve it as soon as possible,
It’s one of my dreams(^-^)

And, I would never be bound to only one thing in the ever-changing future, I’d continue to evolve too, from era to era,
in form, appearance, in expression,
as an expressive individual in music…

In order to again,
become people’s strength and hope… 

Although it may be in my own way… but I’d like to walk forward everyday
doing my all and my honesty (^-^)

And with that, everyone, from today too,
by all means, please continue to support and take care of me(^O^)

Ogura Yui
