>>1 OtsukARE, AZUKI Nana.

Nana-saaan〜 I love you! Marry me; I'll cherish you forever. The posting begins〜 begins〜

>>1 OtsukARD.

Musashimaru.

>>1 Otsukare, Tears of Yesterday.

>>1, Otsukare no Maboroshi.

>>1, Otsukare to RAINBOW. An exciting collaboration between GARNET CROW and the Nippon TV anime *Detective Conan*!! “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo” is an impressive track built around an acoustic feel, paired with the open, expansive vocals of Yuri Nakamura. AZUKI Nana's emotionally rich wording and lyrics with a touch of philosophy also hit home. It's a mid-tempo ballad! Includes a special card featuring *Detective Conan* artwork. http://www.neowing.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=GZCA-4100

Given the current situation, “exciting collaboration” is pretty accurate.

>>1 Thanks for the hard work. GARNET CROW (Kyoto) Show date: Saturday, October 20, 2007 Venue: Ninna-ji Application period: Tuesday, September 25, 6:00 p.m. – Friday, October 5, 9:00 a.m. Results announced: Around 10:00 p.m. on Friday, October 5, 2007 ▼ Details and applications here http://mt.pia.co.jp/pre/entry.jsp?ID=011120070925P032

For some reason, I suddenly want some Takenoko no Sato〜

The vocalist is so cute.

I heard the vocalist is cute. ←Poli-poli (blush)

I want to see the Yurippe from two years ago (Yuri Nakamura).

Yurippe was at her prettiest about six months after her debut—right at peak deliciousness.

This way of bumping the thread is a bit much, but thanks for the hard work.

How many decades out of date is Yurippe's sense of humor?

>>1, here's the long version of “thanks for the hard work.” Today at the ENT clinic, they put a camera up my nose to look at my vocal cords. Yurippe must've had that awful exam, too... Anyway, no polyp, but vocal cords sure are delicate. Apparently, you can damage them pretty easily if you overuse them.

>>21 Gorilla... don't hit... ooh! (Was it “banzai!!”?)

Now that's a blast from the past.

Y: Go for it, mammoth! Nana: I should come up with one, too... Y: Go for it, rumba!

I think I've become a fan. For some reason, I suddenly remembered how great the *Eternia* opening was, so I went and listened to it. I liked the game back then and didn't really listen to the song closely, but the melody was already burned into my brain. Now that I'm really into music, I listened to it again, and it's way too cool... I wonder if there are any other bands that can create this kind of world... How do fans generally rate “flying”? To me, it's just a straight-up masterpiece. Sorry for writing such an embarrassing, overexcited post.

>>25 Ah, that bit where it was like Nana got left hanging, right? lol Nana even said, “Huh?” lol Whether it was Mochi's “Handkerchief Prince” and “Ina Bauer,” or “Ganbaru-nba,” Yurippe loves to leave people hanging with her own jokes, lol.

>>26 It's a great song among fans, too. At least, I love it. But it fits *Eternia* so perfectly that it doesn't really feel like a GARNET song. By the way, I got into them through *Eternia*, too.

>>26 Even among the otaku, a lot of people like this song. Isn't it pretty common for it to be someone's gateway song, like it was for you? Personally, I've gotten tired of it and don't listen much anymore. But when I revisit it once in a while, I feel its almost sacred quality all over again.

>>26 I became a fan through “flying,” too. The song, the vocals, the lyrics, the arrangement—everything is a masterpiece. I wasn't interested in the game, but after I heard it in a commercial, I bought the game and watched the opening over and over, lol.

Among fans—or maybe just people on this board—the game version of “flying” seems to be rated pretty poorly. I actually like it better than the original.

>>31 When I bought the album and heard the original for the first time, I was moved, lol. I like the game version, too, but Yurippe's voice seems a little quiet in it.

I got into them through “Mysterious Eyes” and “Natsu no Maboroshi” on the *Detective Conan* theme-song compilation. Though nobody asked.

I got into them through “Kimi, Tsuresaru Toki no Oto.”

>>26 Me too. At first I was like, “Oh, that Conan group...” But the opening hit me so hard that I went straight out and bought the CD.

In the end, it's all about choosing the right tie-in partner.

>>26 “flying” is pretty unusual for GARNET CROW. Even now, I feel it's different from their other songs in some fundamental way. Even on the first album, which is full of great songs, it really stands out.

>>37 Yeah〜 It just has something different about it.

Even the instrumental version of “flying” is really good. I wish the instrumentals for recent singles would include the harmonies, too.

Those harmonies are what give it its presence.

The instrumental version has harmonies, too?? I listened to *Best*, but... I got into them through “Spiral,” though... There were so many good songs before that. I listened through them one by one, and they're all great. So this kind of conversation is a good excuse to revisit the older songs. They're all tracks that were obviously on *Best*, but...

I got into them through “flying,” too... I watched the opening over and over until the melody was stuck in my head, then I started wondering what else they sang. The synchronization between the chorus and the scenes with Meredy is ridiculously perfect.

>>1 × “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo” (incorrect spelling) ◎ “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo” (correct spelling) Please fix it starting with the next thread!

Anime songs are no good, but game songs are okay. Funny how that works.

Sorry, I can't get into game songs, either.

Whether it's a game song or an anime song, “flying” is a masterpiece, so it's fine.

If you're going to fix it, also change the next-thread marker so it starts around >>970.

Yurippe is a goddess on the “flying” cover and in the PV.

>>47 Adding to that, Cuckle: Why do we need to delay starting the next thread? Answer: According to the admins' policy, bumping a thread is considered disruptive. The idea seems to be that it makes efficient use of threads. But I think Yurippe's “poli-poli (blush)” this time is okay, lol.

>>48 The PV aside, the cover is just “Witch Yurippe.”

I think the intro to the game version of “flying” is cooler.

Thanks for the extra info, Cuckle. Well, I guess I've started to care about how long it takes to bury the old thread after the next one is created.

http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/AZUKI%E4%B8%83

>>53 Wasn't her real name deleted from there once before? She's chosen to keep it private, so is it really okay to write it here? If only fans knew, that'd be one thing, but...

>>54 Isn't it written right at the top?

It's been deleted now.

Then someone should put it back.

List of disbanded Being/GIZA artists. (There are probably more...) Arisa Tsujio, Yumi Shiina, New Cinema Tokage, sweet velvet, GRASS ARCADE (GRASS ARC.), RUMJET PULLEY, 4D-JAM, cocott, PAMELAH, the FIELD OF VIEW, T-BOLAN, Nanase Kaori, Chigiri Akiyoshi, Ruka Oba, Chika Yoshida, Mika Hase, Soul Crusaders, nothin' but love, JASON ZODIAC, Les Mauvais Garçons, DEAR RESONANCE, Miki Matsuhashi, Yukari Yamaguchi, cocott, M's EFFECT, GO2, PAN HEAD, B.B.QUEENS, Mi-Ke, BAAD, ZYYG, WANDS, Barbier, Ryo Tachihara, rumania montevideo, WAG, JEWELRY, Minoru Emura, Miu Kitasora, Hitoshi Okamoto...? Etc... Mochi, I'm dying, lol.

When I said “written,” I meant in the notes/rules section.

Hitoshi Okamoto...? ...Who?

There's no photo of him in GIZA's artist profiles—does that mean he disappeared? Did Mochi disappear, too?

But he's still active as GARNET's guitarist. If he really wanted to release something, couldn't he still do it?

When the GARNET members come to Tokyo for promotion, do they take the Shinkansen? Or fly?

The Shinkansen.

They don't have the budget, so they take an overnight bus.

Didn't they say on *HEY!×3*, “Even though it's not the Shinkansen...”?

Mochi often talks on the radio about taking the Shinkansen when GARNET travels for events.

AZUKI Nana said that when they were heading to Tokyo, Yurippe missed the Shinkansen and it scared her, lol.

>>66 “Today, too, they said the Shinkansen had stopped, so you came out really early, even though you weren't taking the Shinkansen.” Don't the members travel separately?

I heard the old man lives in Tokyo (though I might have that wrong). But don't they record in Osaka? Maybe he's actually married and his home is in Tokyo or something? lol

There used to be PAMELAH. They were kind of similar to GARNET, but more on the rock side, I think.

The members are such a mystery. I do wish they'd at least reveal their ages... But maybe that would shatter the illusion, lol. The mystery is part of the appeal, after all...

If they want to sell themselves on being mysterious, they shouldn't appear in the media at all. In the end, it seems like they still want to be in the spotlight...

>>71 I like PAMELAH. I'm still a teenager, so nobody around me knows them... Since Mr. Ozawa wrote and arranged the music, maybe they're closer to Saegusa than to GARNET...

Low media exposure and mysterious identities—isn't that a GIZA-specific trend? That's what Wikipedia-sama says.

Rather than GIZA-specific, it's Being-specific. There are countless examples, like ZARD, Kuraki, and Komatsu.

Quite a bit has been dug up about Kuraki and ZARD, though. Within GARNET, Mochi is pretty open, but Yurippe, Nana, and the old man are still a mystery, lol.

>>79 It's the hand-holding video from *Music Station*.

Why *Music Station* of all things, right now? I was thinking that while getting ready to download it, and then... 553 visitors (total number of visitors over the past five minutes) How many people are watching this thread...?

I didn't watch it, but I remember in the line “umare-sodatsu toki,” the “daah” part was really off-key.

Yurippe is such a mystery. Not even one of her old school friends has shown up on 2ch. Come to think of it, is “Yuri Nakamura” her real name or a stage name? We don't even know if she's Japanese.

Surely we at least know she's Japanese, right? lol

We don't even know if she's from Earth...

Yuri Nakamura is probably her real name. If it were a stage name, I think she'd have picked something cuter.

It's a shame Yuri Nakamura's huge boobs are hidden.

>>86 Didn't Being have a trend of changing names to get lucky stroke counts? (Saegusa and Sakai both score 100.) Yurippe's stroke count isn't very good, though. Mochi's only got better after they added the “志.” Thinking about it that way, could it be a stage name?

>>81 I think about 20% of people on 2ch post, while 80% just lurk. Though I don't know if that only applies to this thread.

>>87 Yurippe has disappointing boobs.

>>89 That visitor count isn't only for this file, you know.

>>79 What should I put in for the password?

>>92 Hint: the email field.

What's with giving the hint away so easily here?

Hmm... no, I can't figure it out even after trying everything...

If you still don't get the hint in >>93, I think you should just give up. Why not look it up yourself instead? lol

Guess I have no choice but to give up... I can't look it up, either...

I mean, it's written right there. Why are you talking about hints and looking it up? lol

Lurk for six months first, then (ry

Post #100, got it W

>>87 Ah, long time no see.

Does this vocalist ever smile? She doesn't seem to have any energy...

>>102 I'll take that, mammoth! ヾ(*´∀｀*)ﾉ

>>102 It's part of her image.

>>104 Where can I see Ms. Nakamura being herself?

>>102 Kind of like how Erika Sawajiri went from *1 Litre of Tears* to chewing gum.

Any DVDs you'd recommend? I want to see Ms. Nakamura talking.

If you want to see her talking, you can find plenty on YouTube. If you want to see Yurippe (Yuri Nakamura) being lively, maybe the fifth-anniversary DVD? Giving you a serious answer.

What about *GARNET TIME* videos uploaded to YouTube and the like? I think they had footage from around the time of the first live. As for something you can buy, probably the first live DVD. Even without video, the diaries should give you a sense of what she's like.

>>108 >>109 Thanks! I'll buy them all, then.

>>105 >>107 I'll take that, mammoth! http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=I3Xe2MsHRIc

Inspired by >>933 in the previous thread, I made a playlist to lend to a friend: “sky,” “Eien ni Houmure,” “cride a little,” “Meguri Kuru Haru ni,” “pray,” “Seichi,” “Yuzukiyo,” “Tsumetai Kage,” “Kono Fuyu no Shirosa ni,” “Mikansei,” “Anywhere,” “Himawari,” “WEEKEND,” “Maboroshi.”

That's all dark stuff, lolol.

Nice and dark.

Add “Mou Chotto Sagashite Mimashou.” That'd be good at the end.

>>112 Your friend is going to be in tears, lol.

So far, a girl I work with part-time was moved by “Eien ni Houmure.” I really felt that the song isn't all that heavy. The others might scare people off.

I liked “Eien ni Houmure,” “pray,” and “Yuzukiyo” the first time I heard them, so it might work out better than you'd expect, lol.

Yurippe's voice has 1/f fluctuations.

Didn't Shinagawa say that somewhere before?!

I lent a friend some songs from their indie days, and they said, “Sky is scary.” It really is pretty dark...

I lent a friend some of their indie-era songs once, too. I remember them saying “dreaming of love” was creepy. I think they found that chant-like feeling scary.

>>119>>120 Really? Now that you mention it, I can see that, lol.

I know exactly what you mean. My friend said it was creepy, too. With “Dreamin',” they said the repeated chorus creates this strange, hypnotic feeling; that's the part that gets them. “Sky” is a bit unsettling, too, lol. You first picture something like the wreckage of a war, then the dusk-colored sky layered over it, and it gives you this helpless sense of emptiness. The strings are so sad, too.

Since he plays guitar so well, I'd like Mr. Hitoshi Okamoto (Mochi) to play more cool guitar solos.

Honestly, I like songs with piano arrangements more than guitar ones.

Songs with piano intros are pretty much all masterpieces.

I really want to see Nana going all out on the piano.

>>128 The intro to “Mizu no Nai...” on the first DVD, lol.

↑Not the intro, the interlude?

A friend of mine who likes Ringo Sheena said “dreaming” is the best song from their indie days! ... But even though they're both dark, they apparently don't like slower songs like “Sky” or “Seichi.”

>>131 That isn't really about the songs themselves; it's just that their taste leans that way, right?

I don't listen to “Dreamin'” much. I remember the lyrics being nice, but I don't like the tune, so I can't even remember them.

For some reason I don't really like their third album, so I hardly listen to it, but I quietly like “Only Stay” and keep it on repeat.

Mochi's guitar fingering is a little unusual, isn't it? He uses his index finger to play in a lot of places. How does he practice scales? It's not wrong or anything, but you don't see that fingering much among pro musicians!

Unfortunately, I know absolutely nothing about guitar, but Nana's way of playing without looking at the keyboard much is pretty unusual for a pro, too, right?

Are GIZA musicians signed directly? Usually, aren't they affiliated with a talent agency, which then signs with a record label? Does it work differently here? Are the managers GIZA employees?

Why not just call GIZA and ask them? Set this thread to sage.

Changing the subject, but when I listen to the remix of “Wasurezaki” on headphones, there's this crackling noise. So annoying (　´ω`)

I heard Gane is affiliated with Ading. That's what Wikipedia says, anyway.

I heard the capacity for the Ninna-ji live is only around 2,000.

>>140 That's how GIZA artists are if they're not affiliated with an outside agency.

>>141 If that's true, there'll be a whole refund riot. Are we going to get a second and third version of that guy...?

>>143 Apparently someone asked Sound Creator on mixi, so I think it's true.

Depressing.

I stopped by Lawson earlier, and for some reason they were playing “Hare-dokei.” I was going to leave right away, but I stayed until the whole song was over.

Even Mr. Matsumoto from B'z has to keep composing with figures like these staring him in the face. It must be rough on Yurippe...

They're doing pretty well in this era when CDs just don't sell anymore.

Leaving Yurippe aside, Matsumoto from B'z has already made enough to live on for the rest of his life, so can't he just compose whatever he wants without worrying about sales?

If B'z themselves stopped selling, Being as a whole would be in trouble, so they probably have to care to some extent.

Haven't been here in ages... Has the crowd changed a lot? lol

Some weird regulars have shown up, too.

The vocalist's voice and face both have this gloomy vibe.

There are more new people around. That's a good thing.

I'm an old fan, but for some reason I just can't bring myself to like “Yume Mita Ato de,” lol. Even though it carries a lot of nostalgic memories for me. By the way, are Rage and the Nana-sama super-fan still reading this thread...?

>>148 There are artists I know who can't even sell 1,000 copies of an album!

>>148 There are artists I know who can't even sell 100 copies of an album!

I think Mr. Matsumoto stopped caring about sales a long time ago. Otherwise, how could he have written those recent songs?

>>144 I asked Sound Creator, and they said, “We are unable to comment”...

The “Last Love Song” PV is really great. Too bad they never made a full version.

Is 2,000 people a small crowd? How many people usually go to their lives? Like at the Kosei Nenkin Hall, for example.

GARNET CROW livescope 2006 ~THE TWILIGHT VALLEY~ December 6, 2006: Well City Osaka Kosei Nenkin Hall (2,400 seats) December 20, 2006: Nakano Sun Plaza (2,222 seats) Total: 4,622 seats Even allowing for people who went to both shows, last year's lives probably drew around 4,000 people. This time it's in Kyoto, so if we use the 2,400-seat Osaka show as a reference, local demand alone could exceed capacity. And since there's only one performance, it's practically certain that applications will flood in. Thinking about it that way, even FC members could easily get turned away.

>>74 I wonder how bad Nana's panties smell.

>>163 Apparently a lot of people lost out in the general ticket sale, too.

>>163 Especially with GIZA fanatics, no matter when or where it is, or who's doing what, it's always the same people showing up whenever there's an event. Forget Hokkaido—even if they held it in Shimane, as long as there were only one or two venues, tickets would sell out instantly.

I wouldn't go as far as “who,” but I'll go no matter “when” or “where,” lol.

>159 He cared too much and it drove him neurotic. That's why he can only write songs like that now. I wish he'd go back to the days when they did skits at lives. The songs he wrote back then were so good~. I'm worried Yurippe might end up like that, too. I'm so worried I can't sleep at night.

>>161 Right~ I'm no expert on video, but I like that slightly grainy look; it feels so everyday and real. The members' expressions are melancholy yet natural, too. I think it's their most stylish PV. Back then, I watched it along with the song before it was released and decided on the spot to buy it.

Whenever I hear “Last Love Song,” I picture Yurippe singing through the pain in her ribs, and it makes my chest hurt, too.

If anything, imagining Yurippe wrapped up in bandages gets me excited. Though even with the bandages, her chest was still (r y

>>171 But that's exactly what makes it good.

Yurippe has a small chest, and yet it still sags(´･ω･｀)

Any albums or greatest-hits collections you'd recommend to a beginner?

>>174 They've released a greatest-hits album. As for the original albums, their second, “SPARKLE,” is probably the easiest to get into. If you want to hear what they're like now, try their fifth, “TWILIGHT VALLEY.” But I think any of them would work. The fourth might be a little iffy as a first listen, though.

After listening to the greatest-hits set, if you like disc one, go for albums 1 and 2; if you like disc two, albums 3 and 4 should do it.

I guess the greatest-hits album is the best place to start after all. For the original albums, I think it's best to listen in order.

What's great about this greatest-hits album is that it's not just a bunch of singles thrown together. It also includes album tracks like “Mizu no Nai...” and “Seichi,” plus B-sides like “Mikansei na...”

The booklet for the greatest-hits album is excellent. The hidden track is great, too.

My heart races just thinking about the postcard saying whether I got in or not.

>>178 Agreed. It's great that they also did a good job including the high-quality songs that weren't singles.

After listening to the greatest-hits album, I still think “in little time” is a masterpiece.

And it has “Sorairo no Neko,” too!

>>184 Yurippe sensed a presence.

>>184 Ahhh!

There's sheet music stuck to Yurippe's back.

I, Hitoshi Okamoto, would like to sincerely apologize for making keyboardist AZUKI Nana uncomfortable during a live performance. First, let me explain how this all began, with Nana complaining that I had made an outrageous one-liner at her expense. It started when Nana arrived at rehearsal and I actually thought, “Whoa, what an intimidating woman in her thirties!” That day, AZUKI Nana was being so naturally eccentric that I couldn't help laughing. What's more, I carelessly thought it was fine to act that way toward a lyricist who was only on the level of a washed-up model. Then, during rehearsal, vocalist Nakamura even said, “You can say that much in front of that woman, right?” I had a moment of “Oops,” and did an Inaba-uer. Then, during the recording, you gave off pheromones that were surprisingly convincing for someone at the “past-her-prime, can't-get-married” level. Thoughts like “She's this old and still this clueless?” and “What the **** is this?!” crossed my mind, and before I knew it, I was doing a second and third Inaba-uer. It is, without a doubt, true that I did an Inaba-uer at Ms. AZUKI Nana. But when people hear AZUKI Nana's name, it's only natural to get the impression that she's over thirty and past her expiration date. Realizing that “Apparently, you can't even do an Inaba-uer to someone at the level of a washed-up model like that” has been a great learning experience for me. So, why don't we just say we were both at fault and put this behind us? I'd be grateful if you'd let it go. GARNET CROW guitarist, the world-renowned Hitoshi Okamoto

>>188 Heypo, lol.

If you thought this was funny when you wrote it, then go die.

I cracked up when I thought of Heypo!

644 ：名無し＠無名タレント ：2007/10/01(月) 22:37:55 ID:YP8Aw0og0 You should definitely buy the Rina Matsuri DVD, even though you only get two of Aiko's live songs. It's a two-disc set, and other GIZA musicians appear on it, too. As for the other disc, if you tie a rope to it and leave it by a pile of trash, maybe Ms. AZUKI Nana won't come near it! Looking closely, Ms. Aiko seemed so nervous that she was running around in a panic and had no time to spare. Maybe Ms. Rina was worried about her! ↑I found this kind of reply in the Kitahara thread, lol. Who wrote this? lol

“Kokoro wa...” is Erika Sawajiri's, you know!

Whoa! I mistyped “o” as “wo”! If “Kaze to Rainbow” is Lupin, then Kuu-chan's new song must be Anri's “Dolphin Ring”~ But am I the only one who thinks Bikin's debut song sounds just like Seiko Matsuda's “Sweet Memories”?

Calling “Kaze to Rainbow” Lupin was just a joke, but “Natsu no Maboroshi” really does sound like it.

>>193-194 Anyway, sage the thread for now.

>>192 Wasn't that >>193-194? The writing style is unmistakable, and they clearly can't understand Japanese, lol.

Isn't it that Nana-fan who shows up every now and then lately?

Still, >>192 had me dying, lol. What a load of nonsense, lol.

193–194 were me being an idiot, but 192 wasn't me. Who is Ms. Aiko? The one at the Imperial Palace?

By the way, could someone translate >>192 into plain English?

>>201 You can see Aiko on the Rina Matsuri DVD, so buy it. Hang the unwanted disc from the two-disc set next to a pile of trash, and the crows won't come, lol. Aiko was so nervous—was Rina actually worried about her?

You could always hang it in a rice field, too.

GC has so many masterpieces that I'm used to listening to masterpieces, so even their merely good songs feel a little lacking... That's how I see it.

Then just narrow down the best of the best, lol.

>>204 Just take a month or so off from listening to GC.

That actually has the opposite effect, though, lol.

When I look up the lyrics on UtaMap, I suddenly want to listen to all kinds of songs. Though I only listened to “Tatoeba 12-gatsu no Yoru ni” once, on the day I bought it.

Listening to “Tatoeba 12-gatsu no Yoru ni” around Christmas makes me feel depressed.

Didn't Ms. Nana (AZUKI Nana, the lyricist) say she hates Christmas and stuff?

>>210 She hates the atmosphere in town at Christmas (the illuminations and all that). It feels like people are asking, “Are you happy?” and it's annoying. She doesn't want to force her mood to match the calendar and get all excited. Apparently, though, she likes hymns.

KAORU is so cute.

I just watched Yuririn at the ZARD memorial live—she's so cute (;´Д｀)ﾊｧﾊｧ

Yurippe is so cute.

Yurippe nullpo.

↑Gah!

Calm down, Yurippe.

That show Yurippe likes, “Suiyoubi Dou Deshou,” is boring.

Has anyone gotten their postcard yet?

Weren't the acceptance/rejection postcards supposed to go out after the 5th?

They're not acceptance/rejection postcards—they're “everyone gets in” postcards, lol.

Nakamura Yuri should play up those sensual lips more.

>>221 >>141>>143>>144>>160>>162-163>>165-167

My acceptance postcard arrived!

>>224 Where?

>>225 Tokyo.

Do rejection notices not get sent out?

Mine arrived, too! Accepted in Tokyo. The back doesn't say that every applicant got in, so I don't know if anyone was rejected. Even I got in, and I always have terrible luck with lotteries, so maybe everyone got in.

The acceptance-notice wave has arrived.

Sorry. I got too excited and posted in the wrong thread. I'm gonna go die now.

Doesn't look like the competition was that fierce.

>>207 You looking for a fight, asshole?! Want me to teach you a lesson?

Of course you'd get in. The venue is way too big for GC, and it's in Kyoto, to boot.

My acceptance notice arrived in Tokyo. Did everyone get in?

Oh no... Mine still hasn't arrived... They said results wouldn't come until the 5th, but people are already finding out today. Does that mean Kansai hasn't gotten theirs yet? Although someone in Hiroshima has received theirs...

That person who got theirs in Hiroshima is me. Here I am.

Still nothing in Fukuoka. I can keep hoping for tomorrow, right...?

My acceptance notice arrived. Tokyo. For what it's worth, I've been in the fan club for one month. Some artists apparently give new FC members preferential treatment. I wonder how it works with GIZA.

Mine arrived in Hyogo. The printing looks nicer than before, somehow. By the way, it says the event will go ahead in the rain but be canceled in severe weather, and that we should bring our own raincoats, lol.

My acceptance notice arrived, lol. >>238 I've been in the FC for a little over two and a half years.

>>239 Are they serious about the raincoats? lol What about the band? lol Is there a roof over the stage?

No acceptance notice yet. Hokkaido. For the record, I've been in the FC for zero time.

Lmao, lol.

Mine arrived in Fukui.

Got an email. It says everyone got in.

Just as I thought.

There are quite a lot of people coming all the way from Tokyo, too...

They managed to reserve the entire FC allotment even though it's only a one-day show. So that's all there is to it, huh?

Does that mean there's no need to apply for the Ticket Pia advance lottery? Can you get tickets below face value on Yahoo Auctions?

There's no way you could get them below face value on Yahoo Auctions. Even regular live tickets are going for inflated prices. The FC allotment probably filled most of this venue anyway.

Actually, there are no bids on Yahoo Auctions...

>>251 Well, of course—there are fewer hardcore fans now. “Namida Iro” and even the Conan opening only did those kinds of numbers.

This venue holds about twice as many people as a hall, and it's in Kyoto. The announcement was pretty sudden, too. If the price is around face value, you should be able to get one.

And it's Kyoto, plus a temple out in the mountains...

It'll probably be cold. Better dress warmly.

Yurippe at a temple. Two weeks to go.

Nana and that middle-aged guy are cosplay buddies. http://up2.viploader.net/pic/src/viploader488106.bmp

A solo show at Budokan really is still just a pipe dream...

Has anyone else still not gotten their postcard? Mine hasn't arrived. What time should I call if it still doesn't show up?

Mine hasn't arrived either. The email said to contact them if it hadn't arrived by this time today, the 5th, so I went ahead and emailed them. (You can email instead of calling, right?)

Yurippe at the memorial live >>>>>>>>>>> mirror-ball Yurippe

Yurippe absolutely has to wear a kimono at the temple live. Though she did wear a yukata in the fan-club newsletter once.

To meet the fans' expectations, they'll definitely upgrade and enhance the mirror ball. The merchandise T-shirt will have a mirror-ball design, too.

Inspired by Kinkaku-ji and Ginkaku-ji, they'll stick gold leaf on the right chest and aluminum foil on the left to upgrade and enhance it.

Ginkaku-ji is (r y

The ticket-shipping email. Thump-thump.

I would like to offer my sincere apologies for repeatedly causing trouble for AZUKI. So I'd like to tell you directly how I feel. The general public's impression of AZUKI Nana is that she's the lyricist who is “a 100 in the looks department, but a 4 at conversation.” Just between us, I'd also heard industry rumors that “AZUKI is an idiot.” When I saw her words and actions, I thought, “Oh, this is nice. Really nice,” and that's what led me to do what I did this time. However, even while we were recording, AZUKI Nana looked at me with a gaze that seemed to lick me with contempt, so she must bear some responsibility, too. And when you think about it, everyone already knows that “AZUKI” means “super space cadet.” It was that very image that kept me from stopping those waves of “Oh, this is nice” as they came and went. So, as unfortunate as it is, this is Ninna-ji, after all. If you would banish me to the Sanzu River, I would consider it an honor. I solemnly promise that nothing like this will ever happen again. This time, I've learned a lot from the fact that “even a bargain-bin lyricist like AZUKI is still off-limits for an Inaba-uer.” Please accept this brief written apology. GARNET CROW's all-purpose guitarist, the world-renowned Hitoshi Okamoto (Mochi / Oka-mochi; unrelated to AZUKI Nana)

The venue really is far away. Even if it were only for FC members, it'd be great if they ran a free shuttle bus from Kyoto Station with GC decals on it.

>>269 I wouldn't want to ride something like that...

>>269 Would it have a mirror-ball design?

So they made the list after all, lol. 745 Name: 名無しのエリー [sage] Posted: 2007/10/05 (Fri) 21:51:43 ID:B7iS6skY0 [Uplifting songs] No. 1: “Makenaide” (ZARD) No. 4: “ultra soul” (B'z) No. 42: “Sekai-jū no Dare yori Kitto” (Miho Nakayama & WANDS) No. 44: “Ai no Mama ni Wagamama ni Boku wa Kimi dake wo Kizutsukenai” (B'z) No. 57: “Odoru Pompokolin” (B.B.Queens) No. 68: “My Friend” (ZARD) No. 95: “FULL JUMP” (Rina Aiuchi) [Tearjerkers] No. 88: “Mō Ichido Kiss Shitakatta” (B'z) No. 99: “Yume Mita Ato de” (GARNET CROW)

I lost the Ticket Pia advance lottery... Is there still a chance I'll be able to get one in the general sale? Saitama.

There's no way, lol. That news about Rina Aiuchi and GC is fake.

It's fake, yeah~

I'm gonna go die. 751 Name: 名無しのエリー [sage] Posted: 2007/10/05 (Fri) 22:25:42 ID:B7iS6skY0 I'm >>745, but apparently Rina Aiuchi and GC didn't make the list. I just posted what someone else told me, but then they said they were joking, lol.

>>269 Personally, I think it'd be nice to stroll around and do some sightseeing nearby—Kinkaku-ji, Ryoan-ji, Myoshin-ji, and so on.

>>26 That's such a newbie-fan thing to say, I'm dying, lmao. I felt the same way when I first posted here, lol.

I guess I've become a fan by now. After a long time, I suddenly remembered how good “Natsu no Maboroshi” was, so I looked it up and listened to it. I liked Detective Conan back then, but never really listened closely. The melody had stuck in my head, though. Now that I'm really into music again, I listened to it properly and it's way too cool...‥ If you know any other bands that create this kind of world, please tell me...‥ How do fans generally rate “Natsu no Maboroshi”? To me, it feels like an absolute masterpiece. But my favorite is still “Holding you, and swinging.” Is that weird?

If there are this many fans, couldn't they hold a show in Kanto sometime before the end of the year, too? Can't they get a venue?! Even early next year would be fine!

>>279 There, there. You're already a full-fledged fan.

>>279 You're in trouble. You're going to get more and more hooked, lol. If you want to escape, now's your chance, lol.

When it comes down to it, Yurippe's appeal is that her chest is so small—a rarity even these days.

>>280 I heard venues are usually booked about a year in advance. I don't think there'll be a live this year, though.

Maybe next year, after the album comes out. I'll just wait for that, then.

It's about time for Nakamura Yuri's voluptuous, sensual breasts to make a comeback.

>>273 Same here.

Is this about everything? Maybe... Things to bring Raincoat (the embossed kind sold at convenience stores is recommended. Not the ones from 100-yen shops.) Several plastic bags (to keep your bag and belongings dry) Towel Umbrella (you can't use it during the live) Hot drink (in a thermos or something) Binoculars (for watching Yurippe) Bouquets and gifts (for people waiting for her before or after the show, lol) What to wear It'll get cold at night, so long sleeves are a must.

Yurippe hates people waiting around after the show, so that's not a good idea.

>>263 When you think temple, you think miko outfit. >>288 Don't worry about the rain.

I checked the online general ticket sale, and it seems everything sold out in under five minutes.

Was that Pia? I couldn't get through, but how do you know it sold out?

Anyway, e+ is sold out.

About waiting after the show, I remember reading on some fan site that Yurippe leaves right away, but Ms. Nana shook hands with people while the gear was being loaded up~

The last three songs in “Beginner's Edition” are too amazing... I'm bawling. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm1133950 http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm1134998

↑Sorry, I posted this in completely the wrong thread...orz Never mind.

Oh no, “Namida no Yesterday” might be the greatest song in GC history for me, lmao. It's so incredible, I never get tired of it. When that guitar intro kicks in, I nearly faint.

I don't even like “Namida no Yesterday” that much, but whenever I hear it, I still think, “Ah, I really do love GARNET CROW.”

The ID spells out Furui (Hirohito Furui), Nana, Yuri, and Okamoto.

>>298 The ID spells out Furui, Nana, Yuri, and Okamoto (plus the O everyone gets).

That's so boring.

How long do their lives usually last? What's the runtime? I'm trying to decide whether to stay overnight or make the round trip in one day...

Usually about two hours. But since it's outdoors, it might end earlier.

>>297-298 “Namida no Yesterday” is one of GC's better songs, too. It's clearly a tier above “Kaze to RAINBOW” and “Kono Te wo,” though “Mawarimichi” is good as well.

http://page18.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w13612768 ●Seat type: reserved seating, Row 68, seats 20–50 Can you even see anything from row 68? And are there really that many seats across, up to number 50?

>>303 Thanks for the info. If I don't have to wait for a taxi or bus, I should be able to catch the last Shinkansen... But yeah, that's a pretty risky gamble... hmm... Well, two hours sounds like I might just be able to make it there and back in one day. But if there are long lines for taxis or buses, that could be bad...

What's with that guy listing several tickets?

By the way, is it okay to take still photos of the live with a digital camera (not video)? Could I then post them in a live report on my blog? I guess that's not allowed after all...? Or is it okay as long as I don't upload them?

Most of the listings are for rows 67 and 68, lol.

>>308 Generally, both taking photos and uploading them are prohibited, right? But unlike hardcore fans, ordinary people casually take pictures with their phones, which makes it more of a problem, lol.

```text 　 　∩＿＿＿∩　　 　　　　　　｜ 　　 | ノ＼　　　　 ヽ　 　　　　　　| 　　/　　●゛　　● |　　　　 　　　| 　 |　∪　　( _●_)　ミ　 　　　　　j 　彡､　　　|∪|　　 |　　　 　　　 Ｊ /　　　　 ∩ノ ⊃　 ヽ (　 ＼　／ ＿ノ　|　 | .＼　“　　／＿＿|　　| 　　＼ ／＿＿＿ ／ ```

So it's not allowed after all... Thanks＾＾

Taking photos with a digital camera, lmao. Obviously you can't do that... This is what you get with the yutori generation...

Someone on mixi said the phone lines were already closed by the time they got through at 10:02. Tickets are already going for around 15,000 yen on Yahoo Auctions, so you can't get them at face value anymore.

Since nobody in the FC was rejected, prices won't skyrocket. Once everyone's FC tickets have arrived, prices should drop.

Gane tickets never go below face value.

>>313 You people keep yelling “yutori, yutori.” At least I asked instead of just taking pictures on the day.

At most lives, they announce that photography is prohibited. If you can't even imagine what would happen if everything were allowed, you're a textbook yutori.

Yeah, that's true... I guess you can figure that out normally. At pro baseball games and stuff, they don't make that kind of announcement, and everyone takes pictures. Is that okay, though?

That's because there isn't an announcement. Anyway, do you know what common sense is? Even if nobody tells you, people generally don't take photos at lives.

I do have that much common sense. If I didn't, I wouldn't have asked—I would've just taken pictures like normal. I was only checking to be safe.

What an idiot, lol.

If you had any common sense, you wouldn't even ask that... What do you think would happen if everyone wandered around taking pictures instead of listening to the performers?

Maybe it's not a good idea to keep responding to that idiot, either...

>>324 Don't get carried away, idiot.

>>323 I mean, is it also not allowed before the show starts or after it ends? I was hoping to capture even a little of the atmosphere (for a live report).

>>325 I'm not getting carried away.

Why don't you ask the staff? How would anyone here know exactly what's allowed and where they draw the line?

Ask the staff.

That's exactly why everyone's calling you an idiot. You probably haven't been to a live before, but you should be able to figure this out without anyone telling you, right? At the end of the day, when the performance is over, the artists leave the stage right away, and after the show, the audience gets ushered out of the venue.

>>328 That's true. Got it＾−＾

If this is actually a regular, then they're a real character...

I forgot to say...! Thanks to everyone who gave me advice＾−＾

The regulars here are all pretty kind, you know.

>>333 Anyway, enjoy the live. By the way, are the general-sale seats around row 60?

>>333 To put it simply, even the fan-club event ticket says on the back, “No equipment for audio recording, video recording, or copying.” They also check your belongings. Give us a photo-free live report in your own >>333 style in this thread. I'm looking forward to it.

>>336 Though the bag checks at the venue are pretty lax. You just open your bag, show it to them, and when staff ask, “You don't have a camera or anything, right?” you just say, “No,” and that's it.

>>337 Don't say unnecessary things. You'll just make idiots like X0/57BdM0 feel smug. Still, even if they sneak one in, if they're caught inside, they'll probably just be dragged out and that's that.

>>337 I think the point is to stop people from playing dumb once they're inside, so the checks do serve a purpose.

Usually at a hall concert, even just flipping open your cell phone gets you warned.

Just keep it in your heart. Go and listen properly.

What a screwed-up rollout. Still no details on the new single? Mai Kuraki's is already set.

If they're swapping it with the ending theme, does that mean “Namida no Yesterday” is done as the Conan opening? I think next week is still the movie version, though.

Summer's over, so they can't use that opening animation anymore.

> THE BACK HORN will release a new single, “Wana,” on November 14. > The song has already become a hot topic as the theme song for the eagerly anticipated anime *Mobile Suit Gundam 00 (Double-O)*, which begins airing October 6. Gundam really is on another level...

There was a precedent with Tatsuya Ishii, so it'll be fine.

http://openuser.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/user/krifhwrll I wonder if this guy will actually upload a picture of the tickets (･∀･)ﾆﾔﾆﾔ

>>347 He probably joined several fan clubs just to resell the tickets. If he holds onto the fan-club newsletters for a while before selling, he can get a pretty good price, too. Why don't you go die.

FC tickets are going for nearly 30,000 yen now... Sell two and you're making a huge profit.

Quit whining, you broke-ass dick cheese. Go die, idiot, lol.

Good work, man.

Join all kinds of artists' fan clubs, then make a living selling the merch at auction.

Isn't it about time they announced the cover and B-side title for “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo”? I want to hear a melancholic song like “Yellow Moon”!

How long before release did they announce the cover and B-side for “Namida no Yesterday”?

I think they announced the tie-in and track listing right from the start back then. If I remember correctly, it was around late May.

The tickets should arrive today. So excited.

Honestly, buying them on Yahoo Auctions is my only option now... They're so expensive...

Prices will definitely come down, so don't worry. The idiots are the ones rushing in to buy at these high prices now.

>>357-358 “Prices will definitely come down, so don't worry”... Could the person saying that be the one bidding on them right now? Let's see how it goes.

My ticket's here!

>>360 Seriously?! lol

By the way, if you know it's hard to get tickets for every single live, why not join the FC?

That's a fair point.

Has the October fan-club newsletter still not arrived? When you send the temple-live email, could you include some news about the newsletter, too?

I was going to wait for my ticket before heading out... Now I'm in a bind.

Tickets are usually sent by mail, right? It probably won't arrive today, will it?

They shipped on the 5th, so I thought it'd get here by today at the latest (and I live in Osaka). Guess I'd better head out after all...

Aren't they usually sent by registered mail requiring a signature? They probably don't deliver on Sundays or holidays, right? I wonder if it's already at the post office and I could pick it up at the after-hours counter.

Mine arrived today in Sendai. Registered mail requiring a signature is delivered on Sundays and holidays, too.

>>369 Oh, is that how it works? My mistake. Sorry.

>>369 Why did it go to Sendai instead of Osaka? lol I was hoping to head out, now I'm stuckorz

The registered letter with my ticket just arrived in Tokyo. Why did it show up on a Sunday? Turns out it's row 4-somethingorz

>>369 So registered mail isn't affected by that after all. Good to know.

>>362 It's like how most people don't sleep with an emergency kit next to their pillow just in case there's an earthquake.

Still hasn't arrived in Hyogoorz

Still hasn't arrived in Osaka.

If they sing “U” at Ninna-ji, I'll be crushed~ I write that on the questionnaire every time, so I feel like they really might sing it~

We already know there are seats beyond row 68, number 50, so there'll be at least 3,400 people. It's outdoors, with no slope and no second floor, so if you're seated in the back, it looks like you won't be able to see anything at all.

Still hasn't arrived. I googled it, and apparently it depends on how hard the post office workers feel like working. Then bring it tomorrow, you bastard! Show some damn enthusiasm! 1, 2, 3, MAR!!

But it's really cold~

It's unbearably hot. I'm shirtless from the waist up right now.

It's still so hot. Autumn feels a long way off.

My ticket still hasn't arrivedorz

>>378 The lack of any slope really is a problem. People in the back will only be able to listen to the music, right? Feels like it'll be like the Fuji Speedway event last week...

Ninna-ji event schedule Regular monthly events 21st: Mieiku service — Mieido Hall 28th: Daikokuten fortune-bringing goma fire ritual — Daikokudo Hall September 8th: Kaisanki memorial service — Mieido Hall 21st: Higan-e service — Kondo Hall October 1st: Autumn Special Treasures Exhibition opens (50 days) — Reihokan Museum 20th: GARNET CROW Music Festival

→ October 20: GARNET CROW Music Festival That's not a thing.

What a latecomer.

Does reserved seating mean they'll put out chairs for everyone? That's pretty amazing.

Are you an idiot? Have you never been to an arena live or anything? You dick-cheese yutori, lol.

Seems like a lot of Gane fans have never been to a live before.

I've only been to a LOVE PSYCHEDELICO live, though.

I've only seen them on DVD, but why are Gane's lives so quiet? It looks like only the middle-aged guys are getting into it, lol.

Most of their songs have that kind of vibe, after all. I also think it's because there are so many people on stage that they can't really move around. At the very least, Mochi should get moving with a wireless rig, and Nana should strap on her keyboard, swing her shoulders around, and leap at Yurippe.

I don't want anything like that. Since this one's at a temple, I have a feeling they'll make the acoustic section longer as planned. It'd be so cool if Yurippe came out in a kimono or a miko outfit.

A live that gradually builds up and then moves you at the end is obviously great, but I also like Gane's more subdued live atmosphere. Their music isn't the kind that gets you pumped up, anyway. Though with Gane, just seeing Yurippe and Ms. Nana is enough to make you happy, lol.

Just wearing a kimono is exhausting. If Yurippe had to sing in one, she'd collapse halfway through.

It just occurred to me: what if everyone has to stay seated the whole time? It is at a temple, after all.

Then it'd have to be a miko outfit. Ms. Nana would probably look good cosplaying as a miko, too.

People talking about miko outfits and cosplay... seriously gross...

Ms. Nana does cosplay, you know.

Maybe they won't use chairs but tatami mats...

I once went to an outdoor live where the audience sat down. They laid out something like blue padded plastic sheeting on the ground? Anyway, my butt and lower back hurt. At another temple live, I think they had long rows of something like simple benches. I wonder what it'll be like here.

Don't forget that Yurippe is an S, you know.

Yurippe: “The audience? A plank of wood is all they need.”

Yurippe (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ

Miko are shrine attendants, right?

>>406 Yeah. If people keep asking for cosplay, why not dress them up as Buddhist monks?

Those two-dimensional perverts going on about cosplay can just go die. Have you been playing too many porn games?

>>408 Why are you getting so worked up? Why not just let it slide? It's more boring than Moody Katsuyama.

Just let it slide. It's more boring than Moody Katsuyama. Just let it slide. It's more boring than Moody Katsuyama. Just let it slide. It's more boring than Moody Katsuyama. Just let it slide.

Well, there are a lot of anime and video-game nerds here, so what can you do?

I bet they reread it about ten times before hitting post, snickering to themselves like, “This one's hilarious, hehehe.”

>>412 You don't have to hold back, you know.

Rejecting cosplay is the same as rejecting AZUKI dressing up as Lara Croft to play *Tomb Raider*.

I wouldn't care even if that were the case.

As long as I can see Yurippe and Nana-sama.

Mochi's guitar will turn into a shamisen.

I was wondering why this thread had gotten so long. Turns out people who can't go are just salty, lol.

They said, “See you next year,” but they never intended to see us at all! GARNET is lying! Yurippe is lying! Nana is lying! Furui is lying, Oka-mocchi is lying! They're making up excuses and only favoring a select few. They've abandoned everyone else! Then they just tell us to buy CDs so they can make money. People here are posting about whether they won tickets or not, but I just feel so bad for the fans.

But everyone got in. If you want to make sure you get tickets, you should join the fan club first. If you won't even do that, you have no room to complain.

Mai Kuraki, Ayumi Hamasaki, ELT, Ringo, Ai Otsuka, Ami Suzuki, Matsuura, Morning Musume, Kaela Kimura, DREAMS COME TRUE, Aya Ueto, aiko, Onitsuka, Namie Amuro, Hitoto, hitomi, MISIA, YUI, dream, Ko Shibasaki, Kumi Koda, Mika Nakashima, BoA, Hitomi Yaida, and so on. ↑They're all so Tokyo-centric. GARNET, based in Kansai, is great (・∀・)ｲｲ!!

Yurippe and Nana seem like they find traveling out of town a hassle.

GARNET tickets on Yahoo Auctions are plummeting...

There are lots of bids on Yahoo Auctions, lol. Some are already getting close to 20,000 yen.

My ticket's heeeeeere!!!! It's a pretty decent seat.

>>425 The people who bought right when general sales opened are so pitiful, lol.

>>426 Nice work, scalpers.

The GARNET tickets on Yahoo Auctions are just people bidding each other up among friends. It's practically a Yen-ten-style scam ring.

I got through to the general sale in two minutes, but they were already sold out, lol. Is Yahoo Auctions my only option now? But Yahoo Auctions is scary... I hate ticket scalpers.

Are you guys not watching for tickets whose prices are crashing?

Yeah. If I have to fly there and book a hotel, I don't really want to go.

>>431 Yahoo Auctions is surprisingly okay. Check the seller's ratings and things like that. I got a ticket to the ZARD memorial live for just 3,000 yen, lol.

I had talked with a certain vocalist about how a miko outfit might be nice, but it didn't seem like the mood was right, so I'll just wear normal clothes.

You'd have to be pretty stupid to wear a miko outfit at a temple. Temples don't have shrine maidens. Though they do sometimes have Buddhist nuns. A nun's robes look like this: http://www.city.kani.gifu.jp/gakushuu/bunsin/rekimin/soujyou/houtai.jpg Anyway, don't do it. The actual clergy might yell at you.

>>435 You spelled “atmosphere” wrong in Japanese! But I'll forgive you!

>>436 http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%B7%AB%E5%A5%B3 Miko at temples Who cares about the technicalities? The important thing is the atmosphere.

But since they said at Nakano Sun Plaza, “See you next year,” we should be able to see them at Nakano Sun Plaza again this year, too. Otherwise, it feels like GARNET is lying! What worries me is that after six or seven years of activity, the fan club only has a few thousand members? Is that normal for other artists, too? If so, is one live a year all this company can manage? Does this company only exist for B'z, ZARD, and Kuraki, with everyone else just being decorative knockoffs that let them say, “Hey, we're working on other acts too!”? Is that why they can't spend money on places like Kanto? B'z should finally do what Tetsuro Oda and Ms. Ohguro did, say goodbye to those guys all huddled up, team up with a Kanto record company, and develop artists who can thrive in Kanto. Get things going there—that's what they should do. Enough with Kansai!

>>438 > Miko at temples That's just an extremely rare exception.

>>437

[Japanese music] Kansai's own the brilliant green reunite! Local live appearance, belting out six songs (photos) http://news22.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/newsplus/1191729485/

>>440 It's not quite that rare, is it? Don't you ever see people selling talismans and things at temples? If you just Google “part-time miko temple,” you can find plenty of temple names. If anything, it's strange to insist so stubbornly that miko can only be at shrines. Anyway, more than the whole miko thing, I really think kimonos look cool at lives. http://www.rock-net.jp/fes/countdownjapan/0607/quick/tokyo01-4.html Even Ringo Sheena's kimono, which looks like it was hastily slapped together, is cool. And mirror balls and stuff don't suit a temple, either.

Come to think of it, since it's at a temple, “Kakurenbo” might not be a great choice to sing there.

>>425 It was obvious this would happen, holding a show of that size in Kansai. They were trying way too hard to look bigger than they are.

>>443 Though mirror balls don't suit a tour, either, lol.

So you can make that much money just by joining several fan clubs and selling the tickets. What an easy racket. More than that, I'm shocked CCP has been bid up to 34,500 yen. I mean, it was venue-exclusive, but still.

Because it's discontinued, I guess.

>>445 250 ：名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。：2007/10/05(金) 00:59:08 ID:aL8OPvWi0 There's no way you can get them below face value on Yahoo Auctions. Even regular live tickets are already going for inflated prices. The FC probably took up most of this show's tickets, too. 316 ：名無しさん＠お腹いっぱい。：2007/10/06(土) 17:39:26 ID:r9XuYUq50 GARNET tickets never go below face value. And yet someone said that with such confidence.

>>449 Funny, right? lol

>>444 Do you mean “Koyoi Nehan no Kata Sumide”...?

But if you look at Yahoo Auctions now, aren't most of the tickets listed above face value? Some are already three or four times the original price. With that kind of money, you'd be better off joining the FC.

http://search.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/search?p=GARNET+%bf%ce%cf%c2%bb&f=0x2&alocale=0jp&apg=1&s1=cbids&o1=a&mode=2&auccat=0

>>453 The way you set up that search is way too biased. http://search.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/search/auc?p=garnet+crow%A1%A1%BF%CE%CF%C2%BB%FB&auccat=0&alocale=0jp&acc=jp By tomorrow, the listings without photos or the ones that were just posted will probably have their prices bid up.

Correction: http://search.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/search/auc?p=garnet+crow%A1%A1%BF%CE%CF%C2%BB%FB&auccat=0&alocale=0jp&acc=jp

The sellers are really going all out, lol.

>>453 I don't use Yahoo Auctions much, so I don't really know, but can you trust a listing that says “1 day left”? And there are tons of listings saying the seat details will be updated later, but then never updating them. For that premium live, someone bid 20,000 yen with one day left, but the winner ended up paying 60,000. Isn't Yahoo Auctions decided in the last minute? Maybe it was different back then, though.

My ticket still hasn't arrived today...

If they'd held shows in both Tokyo and Kansai, that'd be one thing. But this time it's only in Kansai, so FC members from regions who never planned to go are probably listing their tickets on Yahoo Auctions like crazy. This looks like a regular live, not an FC event, so I doubt they'll check IDs or anything, right?

You can all see prices on Yahoo Auctions have crashed, so why do you keep bringing it up? By the weekend, they'll be below face value anyway.

I can't get my schedule sorted out this year, so I'll give up on this one. But if GARNET is still active next year, I'll go to a live even if it's far away! I'll book a hotel, too! If it's in Tokyo, I can make the round trip in one day!

>>459 But didn't general sales already happen? lol

Row 43↓↓

Why are there nothing but thread bumps?

There are more and more auction listings, lol. Anyone listing theirs for almost 20,000 yen is an idiot.

http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/106684853 Why aren't they showing the seat details? lmao

You guys are really interested in Yahoo Auctions, huh? lol

>>466 The seat details have been known for ages. Anyone listing a ticket without showing them is probably sitting pretty far back...

Saturday, October 20, 2007 Doors: 17:30 Show: 18:30 Rows 7, seats 7 and 8 ← Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah No claims, no returns. http://page4.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/d77125332 I can report this, right? lol G-NET TEL 06-6110-0158 e-mail [email protected]

>>469 And also, The tracking number comes up as 53906887440. http://tracking.post.japanpost.jp/service/jsp/refi/DP311-00100.jsp Higashiyodogawa branch, huh...

Showing the row is one thing, but if you show the seat number, FC staff can figure out your membership number. Did this idiot not realize that...?

>>468 My ticket hasn't arrived yet. For the record, I'm in Chiba, lol.

>>372 Row 4-something is pretty good, isn't it? I'm in row 5-something...orz Even after joining the FC...orz But I guess just getting a ticket is something to be grateful for( -☆sparkle

>>473 There are thousands of fans just in the FC, so it's wrong to think that joining the FC automatically gets you a good seat. You should think of it as a way to make sure you get a ticket.

Are there no lettered sections this time?

I just can't for the life of me understand what mindset makes someone go out of their way to listen to songs sung in Japanese by people who aren't even Japanese.

That's how kids think. Don't worry about it, lol.

But >>477 sounds like a middle-schooler.

Has Mochi's radio show still not played the new song? So much for “the world's first...” If it airs next week, won't that be just one day before release?

>>476 Gooooooooooooo die.

Wouldn't that still make it the fastest?

ttp://ja.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=12962820 Whoever wrote “dick” on the Tokyo Keizai University page, show yourself, lol.

Tokyo Keizai University (lol)

>>476 What are you, Yūya Uchida? lol This argument is 30 years old.

What is this? Nothing but a bunch of idiots, lol.

lol (half-width)

>>485 Fragile.

Is this a GARNET thread?

>>469 Saturday, October 20, 2007 Doors: 17:30 Show: 18:30 Rows 7, seats 7 and 8 ← Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah http://page4.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/d77125332 All right, I'm quitting the FC, quitting the FC.

Hard luck, you broke-ass losers.

>>489 > I was planning to go that day, but something came up and I can't make it, > so I'm transferring the tickets to fans who couldn't get any. Current bid: 35,000 yen Buy It Now: 50,000 yen They obviously just want to gouge someone.

The organizer is α-station.

>>491 If they had even a shred of conscience, they'd set the Buy It Now price at face value, lol.

Things are getting pretty heated. Why not count prime numbers and calm down?

>>489 Should we report them?

Ah, what a waste, what a waste, lol.

Would an email be more effective? G-NET TEL 06-6110-0158 e-mail [email protected]

Even if we email them, given how GIZA operates, they'll probably put customers first (or rather, FC dues first) and let it go.

>>473 Same here... The mail carrier came today, and I eagerly signed for it and took the familiar envelope. Then I saw “10/20/2007, row 5-something-ry)” written on the front... I thought, “No way,” but when I opened it, sure enough, it was row 5-something... What kind of treatment is this for FC members...orz

Because the very first row is row 15♥

People have been saying over and over above that row 7 tickets are being listed for sale. What is this guy even talking about...?

“Priority sale” means you get to buy tickets earlier; it doesn't necessarily mean priority access to good seats, right? At least, that's what I think.

>>502 That's what most people would think. If joining the FC guaranteed good seats, scalpers everywhere would be rushing to join.

Yeah. There's nothing else I can do now but buy from an auction...

>>502 “Priority” should mean that, sure, but in practice, it feels like the good seats still go to FC members.

If FC members alone fill up rows 1 through around 65, then of course some people will get lucky and others won't.

>>494 Is that a *JoJo* reference?

Sorry to bring up auctions again, but this seller seems like a really honest person. http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/101855110

Counting primes is surprisingly hard. 2, 3, 5, 7, ... 2003... Guess I'll go to bed soonzzz

>>508 ...Good luck to the seller.

From row 43, can you see anything at all?

Since you're already in Kyoto, why not hold it at Heian Shrine? Shrine maidens sweep the grounds there every day.

Did Ms. Nakamura go to Kamachi's memorial live?

Hey, hello? Is this G-NET? ```text 　　_　　D 　( ﾟ∀ﾟ)○　　 __ 　(　　ノD……／◎＼ ``` So, about that Yahoo Auctions listing... ```text 　　_　　D 　( ﾟ∀ﾟ)○　　 __ 　(　　ノD……／◎＼ ``` Okay, got it. The URL is [redacted]... Yes, that's right, [redacted]. All right then... click.

The new song might get delayed. The details are taking way too long to come out.

But at the latest, we'll hear the TV-size version next week, right?

The new song is getting delayed...??

When I opened the official site, a pop-up appeared, and I thought it was a release-delay notice.

Has MFM still not arrived?

My good seat is here, it's here!!

What area counts as a good seat?

Someone mentioned this above, too: there's no slope at this venue, right? Does that mean you can barely see anything from row 10 onward...?

I heard Hatsune Miku's voice provider likes Gane.

Holy crap, it's so good, lol. http://www.amazon.co.jp/o/ASIN/B000WGUKBG/249-1829418-8360347?SubscriptionId=1N1JNYM5DVFTMHFYD902

>>524 Damn, it's just great as-is, lol.

>>524 What's with Yurippe looking like such a queenly S... This is amazing.

>>524 IT'S HEEEEERE━━━━━━━━━━━━(　･ω･) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━!!!!

>>524 That cover looks so cool.

By the way, Yurippe's eyes look a little different somehow... Like she went on *Beauty Coliseum* or something.

(;´Д｀)ﾊｧﾊｧ ttp://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/61N6jOaYQxL._SS500_.jpg

Great cover.

I want to go the day before, but I can't find a hotel aaah(´･A･｀)

>>532 Then stay at an internet café.

Somehow, when the cover is good, it makes you look forward to the songs, too.

I called the fan club and asked. They said one example was the very last row... Is it like Kyoto Kaikan...?

Are you getting any bites?

>>524 Yurippe is absolutely amazing!

>>524 This cover is so much better than the last one, lol. Yurippe looks insanely cool. Azuki has this subtle, understated sexiness.

>>530 Yurippe might be the cutest she's ever been. >>535 You can read “front row” and “back row,” so how did that turn into “row 15” and “row 1”?

http://www.uploda.org/uporg1058346.jpg

Not just Yurippe—the cover this time might be one of their best ever, too. The vibe suits Gane so well.

This cover reminds me of that fiber-like look from back then. By the way, have they announced the coupling song yet?

Not yet.

For the temple live tickets, what's the highest seat number in each row? The auction listing says row 68, seats 20–50. Does that mean it goes up to 50? Is anyone here in a seat above number 50?

I don't even care what the songs are anymore. I'm buying it.

I like Yurippe's outfit. The ribbon looks great on her, too. I've decided to buy it for the cover, lol.

>>542 Agreed. How do I put it? It has a nostalgic feel. I like “Sen Ijō,” too.

I hope she wears this outfit at the live, too.

Yurippe looks like the cover of “Yume Mita,” lol. By the way, Nana's strap has a subtle sexiness to it, too, lol.

Does everyone like this kind of look...? I really like the style of the “Koyoi Eden no Katasumi de” cover. Am I the only one?

Could JGM come back into print? (´･ω･｀)

>>550 What do you mean by that style?? You don't mean the sexy kind, do you? lol Gane is better with a mysterious look.

That revealing outfit on the “Kimi to Iu Hikari” cover is the best. I've jerked off to it dozens of times.

Yurippe http://usokosearch.com/?a=Maker&oo=%C3%E6%C2%BC%CD%B3%CD%F8 Ms. Nana http://usokosearch.com/?a=Maker&oo=AZUKI%BC%B7 Old man http://usokosearch.com/?a=Maker&oo=%B8%C5%B0%E6%B9%B0%BF%CD Mochi (Hitoshi Okamoto; “Mochi” and “Oka-mochi” are his nicknames, unrelated to AZUKI Nana) http://usokosearch.com/?a=Maker&oo=%CC%DF Hitoshi Okamoto http://usokosearch.com/?a=Maker&oo=%B2%AC%CB%DC%BF%CE%BB%D6

Who was saying prices would crash, lol? Looks like one after another is going to sell for a high price now.

The ones saying prices would crash are probably the frustrated people who really want a ticket but couldn't get one. And it looks like it's just one person making a fuss, lol.

This is another cover with a very virginal vibe.

>>530 That's early-era Nakamura.

I was looking at the auctions. The highest I've seen is row 67, seat 45. Looks like the venue holds about 3,000 people.

I joined G-NET today. My membership number is in the 7300s. I thought there'd be a members-only website like Mai-K.net, but apparently not... I missed the temple live, but I'm looking forward to a Kanto show!

>>564 There must be gaps from people canceling their memberships, so the actual number of members is probably lower. By the way, even non-members buy singles one at a time.

>>565 Is that weird?

I just picked up my ticket at the post office. I'm in row 11. I paid right away this time. Could that have made a difference? My eyesight's been getting a little worse lately, but it looks like I'll still be able to see from here.

There's no way it's first come, first served.

My ticket still hasn't arrived... I'm dying to know my seat!

>>567 Hmm, so it's about when you pay. I was busy with work and couldn't pay right away, so after the payment slip arrived, I waited two more days before paying. I ended up in row 5-something. I remember G-NET saying the seats would be decided by lottery, though. I wonder how they actually did it. But I guess it doesn't really matter (＾＾;

I paid as soon as the slip arrived, and got row 9. But it's probably just a coincidence.

I paid right away, but I'm in row 4-something... Oh well. Just getting to see Yurippe is enough for me.

Though you probably can't see her with the naked eye anyway.

I paid the day before the deadline and got row 14. So if it were first come, first served, that wouldn't make sense. They probably really are drawing seats, I guess.

Buying from a new account, huh? My condolences.

I've always wanted to go to Kyoto, so I'm really happy. I've always privately thought the sloped railway by the Lake Biwa Canal was the inspiration for “Rusty Rail,” so I want to listen to it there. And I can visit all kinds of places associated with Yurippe, too.

I paid right before the deadline, but got row 4.

Yurippe has gotten kind of otaku-ish again, huh? Nana going back to her early-days look is nice, though, lol.

>>576 Which places are associated with Yurippe?

I paid about a day before the deadline, and got row 8.

I paid the same day the slip arrived and got row 3. I'm the winner.

If you're too close, the sound isn't as good and your neck starts hurting. It's a hassle. Of course, if you're happy just being close enough to see Yurippe and Nana, then I guess it doesn't matter, lol.

Isn't anyone going for the old man and Mochi...?

The old man is so cute, the old man.

>>582 is tearing up.

I'm >>577.

Oh, I see, I see. But honestly, I'm the one who's tearing up because I can't go...

You've been salty this whole time, so I figured that was probably the case.

I don't give a damn about the seats of you disgusting nerds! You bunch of dick cheese.

When I was a kid, I got an insect-collecting kit during summer vacation. I think it came with two chemicals, a syringe, tweezers, and stuff like that. One day, I filled the syringe with the chemical and was about to inject a cicada I'd caught, when the needle came off and stuck into my own thigh. I'd used that syringe to send so many bugs to the afterlife, so I thought, “Now I'm going to die, too.” I went back to my room, laid out my futon, and waited for the end. But cruelly, I was woken by my mother's voice yelling, “How long are you going to sleep?!” Looking at my family sitting around the dinner table, for some reason tears started streaming down my face.

Will this live start with “Anywhere” and end with “Bokura Dake no Mirai,” like usual? What number in the set will “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo” be?

Is Hirohito Furui's Hammond an old model? If he takes it home with him, he must live in a really huge house! At lives, do they mic the Hammond and Leslie speaker cabinet? Besides Yamaha synths, does he use a Moog or a Prophet 5?

>>591 Wouldn't that just be the same as last year's live...?

It's probably the company's.

At this live, will Mr. Mochi be using his gold Les Paul Standard, as usual? Or maybe his sunburst Telecaster? It could be fun if he surprised everyone by bringing out that greasy tiger-stripe Les Paul made of harakanda, and treating the audience to a monster guitar sound that says, “This is what a Les Paul is all about!”

You can watch the Ninna-ji live even without a ticket if you bring binoculars, lol. But more importantly, I wonder if they'll have special merch for the Ninna-ji live. Anyway, I'm going to the venue to get a poster.

Well, it's outdoors... If you just walk near the temple, you'll at least be able to hear the music...

Does Yurippe use a Sennheiser live mic? Singers often bring their own custom mics, but Sennheisers are used on drums, too. Are they better than the Shure 58? On the live DVD, during the introduction to “Koyoi Eden no Katasumi de,” the high end sounds a little distorted!

ID:AYilG4L00 The way you're pretending to know what you're talking about is embarrassing. Give it a rest.

Ms. Nana's synthesizer has a cover on it, but what brand is it, and what's the model called?

Let's change the subject from tickets! We're too boring and proper!

One after another... These people sure keep popping up in this thread (sigh).

There's an instrument expo in Yokohama, Kanto, starting November 1. Will Hirohito Furui come check it out? Is there one in Osaka, too?

I don't know if the old man will come, and I don't know if there's one in Osaka. Anyway, just disappear already.

Set the thread to sage.

610, then what kind of replies are okay?

All right, it's time for MUGEN.

>>617 I was about to post, but I put it in the fashion board by mistake, lol.

>>618 What did you post? lol By the way, Yurippe is so cute.

>>595 It was probably that sonic-blue Stratocaster he played around the time of the first livescope. That one's the best. We haven't seen it much lately, though.

>>621 Is Hitoshi Okamoto (Mochi / Oka-mochi; unrelated to AZUKI Nana) a Beatles fan?

>>622 No, no, isn't Hitoshi Okamoto a Badfinger fan? He even covered one of their songs.

>>619 Yuririn's segment on MUGEN was way too short, but it was nice to hear ZARD's new song, too. That's what I posted. Everyone ignored me, lol.

Calling her Yuririn is a bit much... At least call her Yuritan.

What's the fashion board? I'm new here, so I don't know...

>>625 We've been using that nickname since this thread only had single-digit post numbers, so it's got some history behind it. >>626 The fashion board.

>>620 This information is pretty interesting. Please post it every day.

>>623 You probably heard their cover by Jellyfish.

How long has “Yarippe” been around?

>>621 That one really suits him best, doesn't it? I'd like a Performance model, too...

>>620 You guys are all loaded.

I've never even been to a live before (´；ω；`)

I estimate the temple live's capacity at around 2,800 people.

I heard the Osaka Kosei Nenkin Hall is going to close. ttp://xtp0001.s3.x-beat.com/cgi-bin/up/source/Sonata_23061.jpg That's where they usually hold lives in Osaka, right? What are they going to do starting next year?

Has MFM still not arrived?

Nothing to talk about.

“Yofuke no Ryūse-itachi” is such a beautiful song! I'm about to cry listening to it.

<<637

It'd be perfect if the November issue of MFM used that amazing cover image.

I think Mai Kuraki will either get the cover, or they'll do a double cover.

So WAG's “Free Magic” was composed by Nana (AZUKI Nana, the lyricist).

>>642 I wish I could hear a song composed by Nana, just once.

There are hardly any posts today. Is it because of the BBtec blanket ban?

>>644 I think there were even fewer yesterday.

Sorry, I got that wrong.

Tickets resold illegally through auctions will not be honored; entry will be strictly prohibited. Please resolve any disputes between the parties involved.

>>642 She composed it, huh... By the way, the arranger was Hirohito Furui.

So quiet.

Looks like Gane really will be on the cover of next month's MFM. For some reason, they didn't mention Mai Kuraki at all, lol.

Are they saving Kuraki for the month after next?

MFM: Cover is B'z “Super Love Song.” Quite a lot of pages are devoted to the ZARD memorial live. “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo” > A mid-tempo song that emphasizes an acoustic feel! The Word Scope feature is with the old man. He says that since they often get anime tie-ins, they're supported by everyone from elementary school kids to older people. The Ninna-ji live isn't marked “sold out,” and the contact is Sound Creator...

The contact for that event is Sound Creator anyway.

“Mid-tempo song”... Lately that phrase doesn't get my hopes up. I wish it had a light, airy sound with lots of space, like “Natsu no Maboroshi.”

Then let's hope for a masterpiece like “Yūdachi no Niwa.”

Yurippe's diary is up!

Hang in there, Yurippe!

Get that diary posted already.

>>658 07.10.12 (Fri) Yuri Nakamura I'm Yurippe, in charge of new songs and live shows. There's only a week left until the Ninna-ji live. I've been rehearsing every day and doing interviews about the new song. I'm busy every day—no, super busy. I'm pushed to my limits every day (lol). When you put yourself under pressure, the unnecessary stuff gets stripped away and the things you have to do come clearly into focus, so surprisingly, it isn't that tiring. I don't think anyone can match my concentration over these past few days. The band is gradually getting into a great groove, too. Everyone's fired up so we can reach our peak by the actual show. If you're coming, please lose yourself in the music with us! The venue isn't very easy to get to, so please leave plenty of time to get here. We look forward to seeing you!

That “new songs department, live division” thing sounds a little weird, lol.

Compared to Yurippe being super busy, I'm just a home security guard...

Yeah, she might forget the lyrics about five times or so.

And the coupling track still hasn't been announced...

And Yurippe hasn't said a single word about the coupling track...

>>659 Yurippe says she's super busy, but to an ordinary office worker, that just sounds like everyday life. GIZA employees are probably laughing at this, saying they're several times busier.

Yurippe probably doesn't know what life is like for ordinary office workers. Though I'm a civil servant and I don't really know, either. But I often hear that GIZA really works its employees hard.

GIZA employees (lol)

Yurippe is so cute, Yurippe.

>Thanks for your hard work, >>1! >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >Thanks for your hard work, >>1! >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >Thanks for your hard work, >>1! >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >Thanks for your hard work, >>1! >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >Thanks for your hard work, >>1! >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >Thanks for your hard work, >>1! >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >Thanks for your hard work, >>1! >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >Thanks for your hard work, >>1! >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >Thanks for your hard work, >>1! >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1 >>1

I get the impression Gane's members have four days off every week. Especially Yurippe and AZUKI.

I usually leave work on time. Are ordinary office workers really that busy?

The old man and Hitoshi Okamoto are practically employees, so I feel like they're getting worked to the bone. Especially since Hitoshi Okamoto once said they only let him use the studio in the middle of the night and stuff, lol.

How often does Ms. Nana actually work...? Even when people call her the “keyboardist,” aren't the parts on the CDs all done by computers? Doesn't she just listen to the songs, write lyrics, and do photo shoots?

“keyboad” → “keyboard”

Nana probably has 365 days of summer vacation.

Yurippe says she's busy with something to do every day, but ordinary office workers usually only get two days off a week, right? Yet in her diary she described a week with two days off as super busy.

>>673 She said she goes to recording sessions to change lyrics and things like that. Though I don't think she's there every time.

>>676 An actor I know said that even if things are quiet normally, before a performance they're so busy every day they don't have time to sleep. So I think Yurippe is probably too busy for regular two-day weekends right now. At least for now.

For Nana, every day is just every day, I guess.

>>678 So during live rehearsals even Ms. Nana gets busy. Feels like that would build up a lot of stress, lol.

Hitoshi Okamoto should've used his Doshisha University degree and brains to get a high-paying, easy job and kept guitar as a hobby. Then he wouldn't be worked like a dog by that shitty GIZA, and his talent as a guitarist wouldn't be buried.

>>681 > Hitoshi Okamoto should've used his Doshisha University degree and brains Though he got those brains by cheating like crazy, apparently.

>>681 Mochi... so that's what you think, huh? lol

Hitoshi Okamoto's annual income is definitely below the 7.63 million yen average for Doshisha graduates. But getting to meet fun guitar buddies like Oga and Iwai must make him happy, too.

It's just Doshisha, nothing special... You disgusting nerds make way too much of it, lmao.

No, the thing to make fun of is the third line.

>>678 Why would they have to rehearse so much before just one live that they don't have time to sleep? No way. Unless they're not playing a single song they've done before and it's all new material, that's different.

>>680 She gained 8.5 kg during the first live period. It must've been stress eating.

>>688 You're looking at too much Yurippe, Anonymous.

>>685 You're probably only Nitto-Komasen level anyway, lmao.

>>687 Really? I think that's about how it is when a show gets close. They do special arrangements for lives and stuff, and they also have to work out how to play together with the support musicians...

I really hope Nakamura Yuri comes out this time with those huge, erotic tits.

>>692 You're the one who was talking about “kuro” in the yuri thread, too, right? lol

>>623 Thanks. I was curious because whenever I hear “sonic-blue Stratocaster,” I think of the Beatles.

This band makes the kind of songs yutori kids listen to. The rhythms always feel so childish, and the songs all sound like obvious anime themes. But I bet you people gratefully listen to anything they put out anyway (lol). Your ears are probably already used to this flimsy, insubstantial music. Hahahahaha. I hear they have way more male fans than female fans... they're probably just there for the women's bodies... And it's nothing but blind fans going on and on about “masterpieces,” “masterpieces”...

>>695 So what do you listen to?

At the 2006 live, everyone around my seat was a woman. I was surprised.

I heard there are lots of couples at their lives. Is that true?

>>692 How many times do we have to tell you they're fake? When are you going to get it?

I listened to “Matsuri no Jikan” while watching the evening glow, and it almost made me cry. No matter what anyone says, Gane's songs are wonderful.

>>695 What's with that “I know so much about music” attitude? What are you ranting about? lol I don't know which song made you think that, but when people talk about the yutori generation, they're talking about people like you, lol. I feel so sorry for a pathetic piece of trash like you. Seriously. So what if there are more male than female fans? The two women are both beautiful; of course people are going to notice. And fans call songs masterpieces because they're fans. Most of them aren't blind fanatics.

>>695 Have you ever even listened to GARNET CROW?

>>699 They're big, though.

Is >>695 the kind of person who judges them after only hearing the A-sides of singles?

A mid-tempo, acoustic-leaning ballad. A song that's been praised this year by the staff, in interviews, and by the fans. And then there's the word “mawaru” (“turn/rotate”) in the title. “Sekai wa Mawaru...” feels like it'll be in the same vein as “Mawarimichi.”

>>705 I'm really looking forward to the new song. I hope it's in the same vein as “Mawarimichi,” too＾＾

When I first heard “Mawarimichi” on the CD, I didn't think it was that great, but when it played as the ending on the live DVD, it really hit me. Maybe it's the kind of song that works better as an ending theme.

>>696>>702>>704 >>695, and the fact that I tried so hard but got ignored... rai-rai-ya~

Honestly, you're all biting so hard because every point they made hit a nerve, lol.

>>695 What do you mean, “obviously an anime song”...? You probably haven't heard JAM Project. What a pitiful person. Japanese anime songs are acclaimed all over the world, you know. Even when they're aired overseas, most of the time they just change the lyrics and singers. The fact that you can lump GARNET in with that kind of anime song just proves they make music that even an idiot can understand.

I'm starting to think it'd be great if Gane were signed to Toys Factory.

>>695 This is read vertically, you know.

>>701 Think about people reading vertically on their phones, too, lol. ha i ha i ra i ra i a

What's so fun about doing this weird stuff...?

Probably some pathetic freeloader with nothing to do on a weekend...

>>713 Sorry, lol.

Still, the vertical readings in >>695 and >>701 are pretty clever. I'm on a PC and didn't notice at all. For a vertical read, the sentences flow pretty smoothly, too.

On a phone, it just looks like a wall of black text.

I really want to eat rice cooked with Yuri's white piss, then pour tea made with Nana's yellow piss over it.

>>710 i J day da ho ga

It's dead quiet during the day, then gets lively late at night, lol. Even Mochi, who keeps vampire hours, seems to have wandered in.

>>700 I have a feeling they'll sing “Matsuri no Jikan” at the live. It is at a temple, after all.

Haven't seen a vertical read in ages, lol. That was fun, lol. People who come here to pick fights usually bump the thread, so I ignore bumped replies. But this person even used sage on purpose and I still didn't notice. I'm such an idiotorz

And the content was that Yurippe is a goddess... and Nana is a goddess, too... Still just as gross as ever.

Out of all these posts, I think >>719 is the grossest.

>>719 I've seen that so many times by now that I'm used to it.

Someone once said they wanted to dip Yurippe's p*ssy in soy sauce and eat it, lol.

I really want to drizzle honey all over Yurippe and lick it off.

That honestly sounds delicious.

“Nonsense” really is a great song.

At last, the world will start turning tomorrow.

>>731 Isn't it the day after tomorrow?

They're talking about Mochi's radio show.

Did he say it'd play tomorrow?

I want to fuse with Yurippe.

Fusing... fusing... ```text \＼\ I LOVED YOU TWELVE THOUSAND YEARS AGO ／／ \＼\ EIGHT THOUSAND YEARS LATER, I FELL EVEN MORE IN LOVE ／／ \＼\ I’LL LOVE YOU ONE HUNDRED TWENTY MILLION YEARS FROM NOW ／／ \＼\ SINCE THE DAY I MET YOU, MUSIC HAS NEVER LEFT MY HELL ／／ ``` I've loved you since twelve thousand years ago. After eight thousand years, I fell even more in love with you. I'll love you even one hundred twenty million years from now. Since the day I met you, music has never stopped playing in my hell.

>>734 You're only asking that now?

Forty by seventy rows? That's way too long and narrow. The stage will probably be at the Niomon Gate, with the audience lined up along the temple approach.

Looking at the live-reaction board, GIZA is pretty famous, lol.

Ten pranks to spring on the members 1. Only Yurippe's dumplings take forever to arrive. 2. Someone mistakes Nana for AZUTUKI Nana. 3. Only the leader's beer isn't chilled. 4. Mochi throws a pick into the audience, and it gets thrown right back at him. 5. Several fans tease Yurippe: “Your sense of humor is only at a middle-school sophomore level.” 6. She orders a meat bun, but they switch it to a red-bean bun because “you're AZUKI.” 7. Only the leader's food is unbelievably bland. 8. Okamoto excitedly arrives at the live venue, only to find his mom and dad are the entire audience. 9. Every receipt the members submit for reimbursement is returned untouched, marked “unprocessed.” 10. They get unreserved seats on the Shinkansen while traveling.

>>740 Number 4 had me dying, lol. But I think Gane fans might talk like that, but when it actually happens, they'll catch the pick just fine. Mochi's the approachable one, after all. Let me defend him a little.

Looks like Nakamura Yuri's obscene lips need to be made even wetter and shinier.

One-week forecast — Japan Meteorological Agency Kyoto October 20 Cloudy, 20% chance of precipitation Looking at the national weather map, it probably won't turn into heavy rain or strong winds. Still, it's best to prepare a raincoat. I doubt it'll be canceled, though.

>>742 Her lower lips are always wet＾＾

Perverted fantasies first thing on a Sunday morning. How pathetic is your life?

Being able to casually write such tasteless stuff means something's seriously wrong with you. I can't understand how anyone could do that. Your fantasies are way too intense; your gloominess is at 100%. You're obviously unable to fit into normal society. I genuinely feel sorry for you.

>>746 Look who's talking, lol.

Will they sell 80.0 at the live venue?

The new song is about to air, but this thread is so quiet you can hear the crows cawing.

I want to fuse with the great Mochi.

Oh~

```text Tasteless and lewd fantasy book ``` Huh...?

>>752 That vertical reading turned out really badly, lmao.

Winter is when Nakamura Yuri's lewd body should really be unleashed upon the world.

>>746 Did you forget to remove your regular-user name?

Apparently, the PV has been released. I heard it has a bit of a live-performance feel.

>>756 Tell us more.

>>756 Yurippe is so cute(;´Д｀)

>>746 Look who's talking.

All right, it's almost time for Pastime Paradise.

Where do you think it'll air?

Lucky... For someone like me living in Ishikawa, there's no chance... *sobs*

>>756 Is it on MU-GEN? > GARNET CROW / live announcement & new-song info ttp://mu-gen.tv/

Being able to casually write such tasteless stuff means something's seriously wrong with you. I can't understand how anyone could do that. Your fantasies are way too intense; your gloominess is at 100%. You're obviously unable to fit into normal society. I genuinely feel sorry for you.

Has it already aired? Oh well, we'll be able to hear it tomorrow anyway...

The new song aired. It's got a kind of floating, ethereal feel. Personally, I think it's a little like “Float World.”

It aired.

If it's like “Float World,” it'll be a masterpiece.

“Float World” is heeeeeere━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━!!!!

I think it has more of the laid-back feel of “WEEK END.” I really like Yurippe's opening.

Lately, Yurippe's songs have made it sound like she's forcing the high notes. This one feels closer to Yurippe's original style.

The masterpiece is here━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━!!!!

The new song is beautiful. I feel like I'd cry if I heard it live.

Please upload the audio and lyrics!

Don't get carried away.

By the way, you'll be able to hear it tomorrow, won't you?

I just want to hear even a little of it early...

The fact that this thread has trash who keep going “upload it, upload it” is a stain on the place.

“Float World” plus “WEEK END”? Now I'm really looking forward to it.

http://page18.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w13722653 http://page18.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w13834579 Even the closing prices on Yahoo Auctions have come down. I feel bad for the people who paid 40,000–50,000 yen.

>>779 There was a false alarm on Mochi's thread, too. 330 Name: Anonymous [sage] Posted: 2007/10/14 (Sun) 22:19:33 I think it's closer to “over blow.” Everyone's all over the place, lol.

>>780 They're going to keep dropping after this.

Nooo, it aired while I was taking a bath... Looks like I'll have to watch Conan tomorrow.

>>780 If you're not used to it, you panic and rush in to bid.

When I bought *The Twilight Valley* a year ago, I had only just become a fan, so everything was new and exciting. I was totally swept up in it. I kept going, “Twilight Valley is a masterpiece! A masterpiece!” but that excitement only lasted two months. After that, for about ten months, I probably listened to *The Twilight Valley* zero times. I wondered where all that initial excitement had gone... Then today, after a long time, I listened to it again. It's so good... It's still the best! Maybe I'm the kind of person who pulls it out around the release anniversary, lol. But why...? Could it have something to do with the season and the temperature...? Last September I bought Nana Mizuki's greatest-hits album, too. I listened to it again last month after a long time and was moved all over again.

The seasons are changing, lol.

Oh, it'll air tomorrow, won't it >> BARO, lmao.

>>785 You made me go looking for a vertical read, lol.

Nana Mizuki and AZUKI Nana have pretty similar names, lol.

>>789 I only just noticed. Ahh, I kind of wish I hadn't... Whatever, don't get all kyo-yoku-yoku over something like that, me!

>>790 “Kyo-yoku-yoku,” lol. Anyway, calm down, lol.

“Marginal Man” is really good...

I want to hear “Sekai wa Mawaru.”

“The world keeps turning~♪” (Hey ×3) Actually, it's the Earth that's rotating~~ (Hex ×6)♪

>>794 This isn't your diary, lol.

>>794 Why do those lyrics have such a Tsunku♂ vibe? lol

Come to think of it, there used to be a group called D-51... My ID...

Lately, artists are all one-hit wonders.

The Okinawan duo?

I kind of want them to appear on *HEY! HEY! HEY!* again... but kind of don't...

They should have a late-night show featuring Yurippe and Nana.

I wouldn't mind paying, so could they bring back *Garnet Time* as a video podcast or something? They can cut the folk-music and movie segments.

>>801–802 So basically, you want them to do “Miwaku no Garnet,” lol.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm1233559 What is this?? When is it from? I was going to jerk one off, but my brother's home, so I'll do it later.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm1235060 What is this, lol? “Natsu no Maboroshi” aaah! Close your eyes aaah!

You guys, today ZARD-sama's “Gloria Mind” and GARNET CROW-sama's “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo” are airing ( ＾ω＾) I have chemistry cram school for my third year of high school, so I can't watch it live･ﾟ･(ﾉД`)･ﾟ･ Please upload it for me☆ヽ(▽⌒*)

>>806 Don't bring that kind of tone in here.

If they play songs they haven't done live before at the temple this time—“Float World,” “blue bird,” “wonder land,” and so on—I won't forgive them. *+゜.(ノД`) And “Yellow Moon,” too...

>>807 Aaah(´Д｀)! I'm studying for entrance exams right now, you know ( ＾ω＾)

>>807 I'm going to sleep⊂二（　＾ω＾）二⊃ Yuka-tan is so cute━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!!

>>807 Ignore him.

>>811 Go die. Who are you calling a troll? Don't underestimate me━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!!

Stop fighting. Today's finally the day the new song gets its first airplay.

Are they going to praise it like crazy again, as usual?

The honest opinions probably won't come out for another two or three days.

“Sekai wa...” may be understated, but it'll be an incredible masterpiece. It's such a profound song, like it's connected to the universe and wrapped in holiness and maternal warmth. That's just my random prediction, though.

At first I thought it was kind of meh → listened to the recording a few times → holy crap, lol, it's a masterpiece, lmao.

Garnet's songs are the kind that grow on you the more you listen (´･ω･｀)

Has Mr. Lily not shown up yet?

I completely agree with >>817.

>>816 Does it feel like being wrapped up in Yurippe?

The B-side track is up on the official site, ktkR!

Argentina, lol. Here we go, lol.

I wonder if it has a sound like “Condor Takes Flight.” Folk-style.

>>822 Details, please!

★☆ NEW SINGLE “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo” on sale November 14 ☆★ 1. “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo” 2. “Kanata Made Hikari wo” 3. “Argentina” 4. “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo” (Instrumental) ※ Ending theme for the Yomiuri TV / NTV nationwide anime *Detective Conan*, airing Mondays at 7:30 p.m. (Broadcast begins October 15) GZCA-4100 1,260 yen (tax included)

>>826 Thanks! Whoa! Haven't seen such an out-there song title in ages, lol.

I'm super excited. The title's pronounced “Arhentina,” right?

Argentina means tango rhythm!

It's “Arjentina,” isn't it?

It's “Arhentina.” It means Argentina.

That's the Spanish pronunciation. The English pronunciation sounds cooler.

>>830, are you a yutori kid? *New English-Japanese Dictionary, 6th edition (Kenkyusha)* Ar·gen·ti·na Argentina: a republic in South America; capital, Buenos Aires.

This whole exchange has such a yutori vibe, lol.

So is Wikipedia wrong?

Let's do some prep on Argentina, lol. http://jp.youtube.com/results?search_query=%E4%B8%96%E7%95%8C%E3%81%AE%E8%BB%8A%E7%AA%93%E3%80%80%EF%BD%9E%E3%80%80%E3%82%A2%E3%83%AB%E3%82%BC%E3%83%B3%E3%83%81%E3%83%B3

I can't help looking forward to “Kanata Made Hikari wo.”

>>826 I somehow read it as “Arugentina,” lol. Wait, was it “Argentini-en,” lol?

...Anyway, I wish they'd stop adding stars all the time and making it look like “★☆ NEW SINGLE ‘Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo’ on sale 11/14 ☆★” Am I the only one who thinks that's unbelievably tacky?

Give me a DVD with the first edition! Even Rina Aiuchi gets one.

Personally, I don't mind either way.

>>840 I'm fine with the CD not coming with a DVD, but I hope they release a PV collection someday.

Release Nana's photobook already.

Just make do with Hachimar showing her belly, lol.

I want a photobook of Nana, plus a photobook of Yurippe made from all the pictures Nana's been taking.

I agree with the post above.

Ahhh, thanks to the Pacific League baseball Climax Series on BS, I almost missed the Conan episode, lmao. I'm so glad I came here.

Here we go! It's finally about to start! I'm getting excited!

Oh, so it airs today.

I have a feeling the first edition of the next album will come with a DVD of the temple liveorz

You're the yutori one. No, you're not yutori—you’re just plain stupid.

Here it comes...! But Gane is the ending theme, so it'll be an hour later, lol.

Disciplinary actions for Gane: Hirohito Furui — sunglasses prohibited indefinitely Hitoshi Okamoto — no hats for one year Yuri Nakamura — “Tiamo” prohibited for three months AZUKI Nana — no dancing with her hands on her hips for three days Everyone looks great on the release-info page on the official site. Yurippe and Ms. Nana are both so cute! I wish they'd sell that poster. It disappeared so quickly; it's a real shame.

Do the Gane members drink alcohol? Have you heard anything about that?

It's the new song's broadcast day, but weirdos keep popping up...

>>853 http://www-2ch.net:8080/up/download/1192443369651975.KdfgRy Here you go. Has Mochi finally become the comedy guy? lol He's so coquettish, Mochi, lol.

>>826 I heard starting with the October 15 broadcast, it'll run from 7:00 to 8:00.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, it starts at 7?! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! I thought it started at 7:30! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Aaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Ahhhhh... Wait, is it really an hour starting today? lmao The treatment got upgraded way too much, lol. What about *Kekkaishi*...?

>>858 Gane is the ending theme, so you'll still hear it.

>>858 GARNET CROW is the ending theme, you know? I skipped chemistry class and am watching it live now ｷﾀﾜｧ（n‘∀‘)ηﾟ･*:

Does it start around 7:53 p.m.?

Huh? Something feels kind of weird, but maybe it's just me?

I caught half of it during the commercial.

The commercial's on, lmao!

The commercial is heeeeeere（n‘∀‘)ηﾟ･*:

Did you see the commercial?

Meh...

The commercial's on.

The chorus gets a perfect score.

Did anyone else instinctively turn the sound off?

>>867 I heard it━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!! My first impression was “meh” (*゜ロ゜)

I heard the chorus, but... hmm...? Still, lots of Gane songs grow on you the more you listen, lol.

So it started at 7... I wanted to hear ZARD, too, but I was betting on catching just GARNET before 8. ... Wait, did ZARD already play?! Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!

How is that anything like “Float”? It's just that recent strained, belted-out sound. I'm disappointed.

Anyway, the best part of “Float” is that amazing falsetto at the end, lol.

Kinda pissy.

Is it more like “Haru Matsu”? You can't tell from that little bit.

Please keep this thread alive. [New ED] GARNET CROW “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo” http://live23.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/liventv/1192444411/

Maybe it's because of the live-style PV, but it sounds like “Kono Te wo”orz

Here comes a terrible song(;´Д｀)ﾊｧﾊｧ Yuka-tan's “Kumo ni Notte” is better, any time, any day ( ＾ω＾)〜(´∀｀

Here comes the usual over-the-top praise.

Before that, let's listen to “Float.”

[New ED] GARNET CROW “Sekai wa Mawaru to Iu keredo” http://live23.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/liventv/1192444411/

IT'S HEEEEERE（n‘∀‘)ηﾟ･*: ━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!! ━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!! ━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!! ━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!! IT'S HEEEEERE（n‘∀‘)ηﾟ･*: It's a masterpiece ( ＾ω＾)

IT'S HEEEEERE（n‘∀‘)ηﾟ･*:

IT'S HEEEEERE━━☆ﾟ･*:｡.:(ﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾟ･*:..:☆━━━!!

IT'S HEEEEERE（n‘∀‘)ηﾟ･*: It's pretty underwhelming (ﾟﾛﾟ)

Wouldn't you say it's bad, rather than just underwhelming?

It's kind of underwhelming＾＾

It gets good starting with the chorus.

／(^o^)＼ What is this?

What a shame.

Yurippe is cute, but the song is kind of underwhelming.

“Namida no Yesterday” is still better.

They didn't even include one second of “Float.” I'm disappointed.

The intro and A/B sections are masterpieces, but the chorus is such a letdown(´・ω・)

Hmm... underwhelming.

The chorus doesn't work. Everything else is good.

I guess you can't really tell without listening to the full version.

I think it's really good, lol.

>>894 What kind of information is that? lmao

I feel like “WEEKEND” would have a better chance of selling.

I like everything except the chorus.

Every time, you guys start off saying it's underwhelming and stuff, then a few days after release you end up saying it's good, right?

Oh yeah, someone mentioned “Float” or something earlier. You, come out here.

The A-melody verse is pretty good, lol. I thought that “kurari” or whatever was Nana.

The chorus is a little underwhelming.

At this point, all I can look forward to is “Argentina.”

I actually like the lyrics.

It'd be okay without the chorus.

The masterpiece is here━━━━（ﾟ∀ﾟ）━━━━!!!!!! That laid-back feel in the chorus is the best!!!!!!!!!

>>906 Still, I think it's pretty similar except for the chorus...?

But people kept saying the chorus of “Namida no Ashita” was underwhelming, too.

It's on（n‘∀‘)ηﾟ･*: Switching over to channel 8.

At last, I don't have to feel embarrassed anymore.

Yurippe is cute, so I've forgiven it!!! “The~ world~ keeps~ turning~ though~ they~ say~♪”

People in the ZARD thread are giving this ending theme good reviews.

No ZARD fans allowed in here! It's on（n‘∀‘)ηﾟ･*:

Is that Tsuboi?

I tried filming it with my phone, but failed, lol. orz

Does the chorus melody sound a little like an 80s idol pop song?

Before it gets to the chorus, I think it sounds quite a bit like “Eien ni Houmure.” The singing style, for example.

Anyway, it's definitely a song unlike anything they've done before.

>>924 I think the arrangement is pretty fresh, with an early-Gane feel. But seriously, is it really that bad...?

...I missed itorz

I recorded it and have it on repeat now. My only thought is that I wish they'd added a little English at the end, like in “Natsu no Maboroshi” and “Yume Mita Ato de.”

Take the guitars (the wistful bends and arpeggios) from the songs on their fifth album and remove them = the new song.

With this song, they wouldn't embarrass themselves if it came on a music-chart show or something.

I recorded the full version from Hitoshi Okamoto's radio show yesterday and have been playing it on repeat. Yurippe is so lovely. I can't stand it. She's amazing.

The A-melody verse and lyrics are good! Looks like Mochi won't get much to play...

It's not bad. But I can't say it's good, either.

Please upload the full audio ☆ヽ(▽⌒*)

After listening a few times, I started to like it. The backing track seems like it gives Nana room to show what she can do, which is nice.

I missed it. Please upload it.

I don't know if it's good or not, but I like it.

I missed it. Please upload it.

If you keep pestering people like that, they're even less likely to upload it for you.

The intro kind of has a “blue bird” feel.

This song is definitely going to become a masterpiece. The residents are already under its spell. Give it a little while, and even the “underwhelming” in “kind of underwhelming” will disappear...

It feels pretty good up until the chorus, but then the chorus makes you go, “Huh?” Still, it's okay, I guess?

Most importantly, it's great that it doesn't sound like an anime song.

So basically, what Nana wants to say is that she took a leisurely trip to Argentina, right?

>>942 Huh????

>>940 If you take “bi” out of “bi-myo” (underwhelming), does it become “myo” (excellent)?

>>943 AZUKI's idea to title the song “Argentina” really is clever.

>>906 That was just what I thought based on my first impression. Sorry for giving you the wrong idea.

>>946 At least she didn't write it directly in katakana as “Aruzenchin.”

Still, that bit that goes “mawaryuu to iu keeeredo” does feel a little like “Float.” If you mean that laid-back, floating feeling, then I guess it does sound similar...

The word “Argentina” looks pretty cool written out, somehow, lol. I hope it's pronounced “Arhentina,” not like “Argentina,” lol.

Please keep the thread alive.

Ahhh, I got the title wrongorz I'm going to hang myself.

http://music8.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/musicjg/1192454420/

>>953 Thanks for your hard work! About today's broadcast, doesn't it feel like a section was missing right before the chorus? But it wasn't an edited version, was it?

It really is a “slowtune,” huh? It's a “slow-tempo song.”

The phantom part 178, lol.

Vamos, vamos, Argentina!

The background animation for this *Detective Conan* ending was made to match the episode's plot. Will it change later?

> From the D section to the final chorus, it's like a beam of light shooting through the night. > The world opens up even further, then leaves you with a hazy, drowsy afterglow. I really want to hear that part soon.

Yurippe~ Lately, whenever she hits a high note, she really stretches it with a lot of force. It's the same this time; everything except the chorus sounds so good... I'm looking forward to God showing off his technique in the intro and outro.

>>959 Could it be a pattern like “Holy Ground” or “Kimi Tsure”?

Got my ticket for less than face value (σ･∀･)σｹﾞｯﾂ♪

>>962 Congrats. The deadline was probably getting close, so the timing worked out perfectly. I couldn't sleep, so I thought I'd drink while listening to “Sekai wa Mawaru~” and thinking about Ninna-ji. I opened a bottle of Tsuki no Katsura from Kyoto, and the carbonation sprayed half of it everywhere. The whole room turned into a disaster. What a fine sake...orz

>>962 What a miracle, lol. A while ago, even row 60 tickets were going for over 10,000 yen. You really can't rush into it.

I want to freeze Yuri's white piss into shaved ice, then pour Nana's yellow piss (it looks so concentrated) over it and eat it like lemon ice.

↑Can't we quarantine people like this?

2ch is what it is because it includes all kinds of people like this.

There are more and more garbage posts. Is it because the new song is so underwhelming?

Someone's already uploaded it to Nico Nico.

>>968 Thanks for your garbage post.

What does “norari-kurari” mean?

It's just Nana's kind of vibe.

It's “Norakuro,” lol.

So it's written as “yuu keredo,” not “iu keredo.” I just noticed!

>>971 Are you serious? If that's true, it's no wonder people call you a yutori...

>>975 I'm yutori. So what?

The new song is actually pretty good. By the way, next time we make a new thread, my input is going to get completely ignored again.

What is this guy going on about when the new song just aired and the thread is moving so fast?

>>977 Well, a new song just came out this time, so that's understandable, right? I mean, the thread title should fit the situation.

>>977 What did you say, again?

▼ La Argentina [La Argentina] [1888–1936] Spanish dancer. Born in Argentina. She elevated folk dance into art dance and was called the greatest Spanish dancer of the 20th century. (c. 1890–1936) Spanish dancer. She transformed folk dance into an art form and helped revive Spanish dance. She mainly danced to modern Spanish music and was known as the “Queen of Castanets.”

>>981 > ▼ La Argentina [La Argentina] So there really was a person like that. Maybe the song is actually based on her.

It's possible. “Himawari no Iro” is about Van Gogh, too, and there are quite a few lyrics based on something or other, if you think about it.

>>981 So she'll be upgraded from “Queen of Tambourines” to “Queen of Castanets”?

>>976 Go die.

It feels like “Argentina” has stolen all the attention. Is no one looking forward to “Kanata yori Hikari wo”...?

Just hearing the title “Kanata yori Hikari wo” makes me think it'll be like “Holy Ground.” Anyway, I'm trying not to get my hopes up...

>>985 Sorry, I really am yutori, lol.

The phrase “happy pet” sounds familiar from somewhere.

>>987 Once you start expecting something, you raise the bar in your own mind. Just from the title, I thought of “Kimi to Iu Hikari.”

>>986 That's exactly Nana's plan. First she gets everyone focused on Argentina, then the totally overlooked “Kanata e to...” turns out to be a masterpiece on the level of “Holy Ground.” That's the idea.

Lately, I often end up liking the third track best, so I'm looking forward to “Argentina.”
