Yurippe My hair gets way too poofy on rainy days, and it’s driving me nuts.

Could the live show get canceled?

Meat stick.

Is the live merch set a better deal?

Does anyone actually buy that stuff?

Seriously, I can’t figure out where to see the live merch…

>14 Here you go: ttp://www.garnetcrow.com/news/images/live/livetour2009goods.jpg

They put out something like a photo book for the fifth anniversary, right? How is it content-wise? Is it mostly just photos?

>15 It says, “The requested page cannot be displayed.” (つω;)

>17 Search every nook and cranny, you bum.

>15 Isn’t that shirt kind of lame? (-ω-)

>16 There are long interviews with the members looking back over the five years and stuff.

Everything is ugly, so don’t worry about it.

New song officially confirmed for release on November 11. Now we’re taking the yearly #1, #2, and #3 spots.

Is the unreserved seating completely free-for-all? Or do they guide people to roughly assigned areas in order of arrival? Could everyone end up packed together around the very front, with the back totally empty? If that happens, maybe it’ll actually be easier to see from the back. Also, is there somewhere to throw away the cup after you finish your drink? If you’re planning to take it home as a souvenir and don’t finish it, it’d be a disaster if you accidentally bumped into someone and spilled it. Freedom gives you all kinds of things to worry about. Let’s solve them one by one together.

What’s with this Arashi fan who’s been clinging to the thread lately? What do they have to do with GCｗ

>23 People who aren’t used to live shows like you are a nuisance, so don’t come.

>17 Buy a PCｗ

>24 They probably wandered over here because nobody paid attention to them in the Arashi thread. I have no idea why they’ve locked onto Gane, though.

>15 4,000 yen for a mere cap… And it’s just tissues…

The fact that a sticker costs 1,000 yen is pretty wildｗ

If you think it’s expensive, just don’t buy it. I mean, come on. You’re nitpicking because you can’t afford it, right? It’d be nice if they held the live after New Year’s money came in.

10 stickers for 10,000 yenｗｗｗｗ

Why don’t they hold the live during the day? If it’s late at night, I can’t make it there and back in one day, so I can’t travel for it（´・ω・｀） If it were during the day, I could go to Tokyo, Fukuoka, and Sendai…

>23 It’s a plastic bottle, not a cup.

>32 Maybe they’re taking into account people who work and students during the day?

>23 You can panic by yourselfｗｗ

>23 Is unreserved seating completely free? 　　⇒Completely free. Could everyone end up packed together around the very front, with the back totally empty? Maybe it’ll actually be easier to see from the back. 　　⇒Then go to the back. It’s free seating. Is there somewhere to throw away the cup after you finish your drink? If you’re planning to take it home as a souvenir and don’t finish it, it’d be a disaster if you accidentally bumped into someone and spilled it. 　　⇒There is somewhere to throw it away. You basically can’t take the cup out, so stop worrying about that too. Freedom gives you all kinds of things to worry about. Let’s solve them one by one together. 　　⇒Everyone except you has already solved them all.

Gane isn’t a rock band, yo. There’s no moshing or diving, so you’re fine, yo.

Gane fans are obedient, so they’re good customers.

Is the news about a new song coming out on November 11 fake? If it’s true, I’ll become Nana-sama’s sex slave.

>23 At a GARNET CROW live, you listen when it’s time to listen, dance when it’s time to dance (lol), and sing when it’s time to sing, so you’ll be fine. The GARNET members will give you cues, like for clapping. Koyoi Eden no Katasumi de Futari no Rocket Spiral Doing all right These have parts where you sing along, so study up beforehand. Have a blast on the day!

Gane lives are mellow because of the members’ personalities.

Oh, really〜 But, you know… If everyone’s packed together in unreserved seating, I’m scared someone might poke somebody’s eye out during Eden. Will the members actually give us advice? Should we make fists for safety? But if you use fists, people might mistake it for punching when you hit someone. I’m coming up with more and more questions.

Gane fans are tough, so it’ll be fine.

Gane is originally the kind of band you’re supposed to listen to in silence, as if attaining enlightenment, focusing every nerve on and immersing yourself in each note they play. They’re a band that expands a sacred world of sound, yo. But that would make it way too hard for new fans to join, so as they’ve done more shows, they’ve gradually started conserving their power, yo.

>42 Is that a joke? I don’t think anyone’s going to bump into anyone.

ID:PJ5LW5eK0 really seems determined to imagine this as dangerous.

>34 If it starts at 5:30 or 6:30, you still have to take the day off work to go. But it’s out of town, so I’m taking the day off anyway.

ON THE WAY is an absolute masterpiece.

If we’re talking masterpieces, it’s “Ashita no Kioku.”

Is this year’s livescope using the same setlist all the way through the final Akasaka BLITZ show?

>49 Among the STAY tracks.

>50 They’re planning to do “hi-speed special oneday” only in Osaka.

Arashi is gross.

>44 “Spiral” (lol)

>51 Definitely “Hell of Sadness.”

Ah… Among the STAY tracks, I guess it’s “ON THE WAY” after all. I like the choral work.

The 7th album is overflowing with GARNET’s distinctive mystique.

Mochi is putting the Japanese archipelago in danger.

>55 There’s no song like that.

What I’ve been hooked on lately is “Memories.”

It was “Hello Sadness.”

>55 What a dark title…

>42 There are instructions. Apparently they even did it at an event. If Yurippe beckons upward with her finger, that’s the signal to dive—to jump into the audience.

All of Mochi’s guitar tones sound the same. It’s a little boring.

He’s the lead guitarist, but he sounds like a support player.

If anything, Kurose seems more like the lead.

>42 At least learn to say thanks to the person who told you.

OOM is coming next year!

>42 Oh, right—the legendary live show demonstrates how to dive, so jump in and use it as a reference. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mamSwecFzM

>55 It’s like Seikima-II.

http://page18.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w43586287 Paying more than retail for First-press B at auction—is that idiot serious? Amazon is cheaper.

>69 No way… I can’t make it to the endｗ

>71 And it’s a sample discｗｗｗ

The daily ranking drop is brutalｗ How many people are buying this who are nothing but otakuｗ If the cumulative total doesn’t reach 30,000, that’s bad.

I am me. You could say I’m no one else. In this heartless world, it’s you and me.

What if I win a backstage pass? What am I supposed to do? I’m going to get so nervous. I should obviously bring a souvenir, right? What would make them happy? They’ll probably say, “I’m happy just with your feelings.” But I feel like feelings alone won’t get the message across. What should I do?

>76 Come to think of it, I need to hurry up and mail my postcard… Maybe we’ll even get to take a picture together(^o^)♪

>76 It’s okay, you won’t win anyway. That’s what I keep telling myself.

100 posts used up in five days?

Did everyone enter the curry thing?

>1 The sky I look up at between “Koi no Aima ni.” Typhoon.

I finally went to Tower Records in Shinjuku to buy it today, but they only had First-press A. Is B selling better?

>82 Honestly… I figured you can watch the bonus DVD and PVs from A on YouTube anyway, and even if I bought it, I’d probably just leave it sitting around. All the online stores have A for under 3,000 yen, but I wanted to hear B’s bonus right away even if it cost a little more, so I bought B…

The person with ID:PJ5LW5eK0 isn’t a bad person, but they kind of seem out of sync with everyone else.

>1 Kyou no Kimi to Ashita o Otsu

The report that she calls staff over with a little finger beckon is kind of a shock… I liked that she seemed unjaded compared with other female artists, so it’s disappointing if she’s basically making the staff run around for her.

Mochi is scary. The typhoon is heading straight for Nagoya, where they held the first live show.

Once someone makes it big, their true worth gets put to the test(´∀｀) Will they keep their pure heart, become the boss, or keep pretending to be innocent…

>87 The terrifying power of the rain man, aaaahhhh!!!

If they gave away Yurippe’s freshly removed panties with every 100-CD entry, they’d hit a million with ease.

So gross☆

Does Yurippe not have much of a connection with Daisuke Ikeda? On Mixi, Ikeda has joined the communities for Mochi, Furui, and Nana, but not Yurippe’s.

>92 No idea, but I guess he hates her.

>86 Staying unjaded while working for Being would be impressive in itself, wouldn’t it?

>94 I mean, considering the way she plays with Mochi, it’s not impossibleｗ

Where’s Ikeda’s Mixi〜?

I pulled out the first DVD for the first time in ages, and Yurippe is so moe.

Are they handing out penlights for free at this year’s live?

Being is hitting the limit-up price, huh. They must be making an insane amount of money.

I wanna knock Yurippe flying.

Right, right. I wonder if there’ll be any part of this year’s live where we use penlights.

>100 If you did that, you’d go flying〜

>98 There were only a few people with them in Nagoya, and they weren’t handed out. Also, they really make your vision flicker, so I don’t want them used at a standing show.

“Koi no Aima ni” is totally single material. They should use a song like this as a Conan ending theme. GARNET has always been terrible at business.

Oh, I see. What a shame. It’d look beautiful if everyone waved them together… By the way, I’m short and my number is in the 400s. Is it designed so you can still see well from the back? Oh, and the venue is Namba Hatch.

>105 I’m 159 cm and in the 200s.

I was in the 200s in Nagoya, but on the old-guy side I could’ve made it to the third row.

>103 I see, got it. Thanks. I tried imagining it for a moment, and yeah, standing probably isn’t a good idea.

How do they decide which songs become singles, which become B-sides, and which become album tracks? Personally, I think something like STAY would’ve been better as a single. There always seem to be more good songs on the B-side—how do they decide?

>1 Yume no Hitotsu, otsu.

>109 Rock-paper-scissors.

>109 Being’s supreme executive committee meeting.

>109 Daikō Nagato and friends’ meeting.

①Sometimes the tie-in partner asks them to make a song with a certain feel; other times they’re only told who the tie-in partner is. ②They arrange a suitable song from the stockpile, or compose one to fit the tie-in. ③For a single, the members add a B-side while considering its balance with the tie-in song. These days, a single without a tie-in is impossible (they can’t release one), so the members can’t make everything purely according to their own ideas. That’s also why they can’t make a concept album with no singles. That’s what I think.

It’d be nice if they got a tie-in with a clear concept like “Rai Rai Ya,” so they could take some risks.

>115 I want them to do something like that again. Maybe the old guy could even release a song digitally as a solo act.

■ Notice: Tickets for the Fukuoka and Osaka shows of GARNET CROW livescope 2009 ~ Yoake no Soul ~ have been shipped The tickets for the Fukuoka show on Sunday, October 18, and the Osaka show on Friday, October 23, have been shipped to everyone who applied. Fukuoka tickets were shipped Friday, October 2, and Osaka tickets Monday, October 5. Regarding the tickets: If your Fukuoka ticket has not arrived by Friday, October 9, or your Osaka ticket has not arrived by Friday, October 16, please contact G-NET. (If you do not contact them, they will consider the ticket delivered.) Fukuoka show: It finally cameｷﾀ━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━!!

The lyric booklet for “Wasurezaki” is the fanciest one among the singles, huh?

How many people does Osaka NHK Hall hold? Will the countdown live be a lottery?

Speaking of Osaka NHK Hall, could this mean they’re appearing on Kōhaku after all?

They’ve been turning it down for almost ten years now. There probably won’t be a Kōhaku appearance at this point.

Okamocchi looks like a completely different person in “flying.” The female member never changesｗ

>121 Huh? Have they ever actually gotten an offer?

>119 It holds about 1,300 people, so even FC members might lose the lottery.

They’ve been active for ten years, but for some reason their name recognition still feels kind of iffy. Even people who know them only recognize them as “the Conan people”…

They don’t get invited onto TV shows very often. Well, I think it’s better for them to keep working steadily through radio and mini-lives.

>86 I’ve been thinking for a while that the finger-beckoning thing isn’t actually a problem, is it? ttp://eldama.exblog.jp/4850491/ Paragraph four: > “The ‘come here, come here’ gesture is generally made worldwide with the back of the hand facing the other person and the finger held upright, then pulled toward yourself.”

I saw a scene in an anime recently where someone beckoned with their middle finger too. Well, it was Bela from *Humanoid Monster Bem*, so that makes it kind of weird… She only has three fingers…

>127 I learned that in English class. Well, knowing Yurippe, she probably didn’t think that deeply about it…

When ZARD did a film live, they connected live with Kōhaku, right? GARNET has zero connection with NHK, so it’s kind of a long shot.

>116 If the old guy is going to write a song, I want him to make a station departure melodyｗ I’d be so happy if I could hear it every day I’d dieｗ

>118 Agreed. It’s lovely, isn’t it?

>90 It’d be perfect if there were a stain on them. I’d pay a million for them.

Waitｗｗｗｗ What is this title for the new song coming out November 11ｗｗｗｗｗｗｗ 　 　 　　　　“Miso Nikomi Udon” 　 　 Why is a Nagoya specialty the song title?ｗｗｗｗ Is it just a joke? I can’t wait to hear it.

>134 Arashi?ｗｗｗｗ

>133 I’ll provide you with Mochi’s stained panties instead.

Hey, a typhoon seed has formed far south of Japan. Will the Fukuoka show on the 18th be okay?

Check “My Girl” on TV Asahi tomorrow at 23:15!!

>138 Is Yuri going to be on it?

>139 Probably Arashi’s new songｗ

I mean, coming into a thread that probably has more male fans to promote Arashiｗ

Arashi fans have a high proportion of middle-aged women, huh. When you see them lining up at places like the Koma Theater, it feels like their skin has passed the point of no return about four times.

Arashi has some good songs, but don’t bring them up in this off-topic thread.

There are 9,000 fan club members just from GARNET alone… But the venue is in Kansai. Do people living in Kanto just give up in tears…? Or do they go no matter what?

>143 Thanks. I like Arashi because they have some good songs. I like Gane too, even though the arrangements are a little repetitive, because the quality of the songs hasn’t declined.

I think it’s amazing that GARNET CROW writes, composes, and arranges its own music. Compared to that, Arashi…

>131 Not a bad idea. The old guy’s fanbase is growing fastｗ >144 Come to think of it, Gane’s audience has quite a lot of people who travel for shows. There must be a fair number who are determined to go no matter what. I can’t, thoughｗ

Didn’t someone say they canceled their album preorder? Was that a different person?

>148 is a reply to >145.

I’d always wanted to live in Tokyo, but after falling in love with GARNET CROW, this is the first time I’ve been glad to live in Kansai. Thank you, GARNET CROW.

I was neither a fan nor a hater of Arashi, but don’t forget that seeing this recent mess has made some people absolutely hate them.

If I lived in Kanto, I’d go no matter what!! That means there must be a lot of other Gane fans who are just as passionate!! Which means, in conclusion, the odds of getting a ticket… are going down. orz

I bought the album. After listening to the previews of all the songs, it really is good. The recent singles were kind of weak, though. GARNET CROW is a music-production collective. Arashi is a super-idol group.

If I walk around downtown Kyoto, do you think I might run into Yurippe someday?

You can’t compare Gane and Arashi. The gap in talent is way too big.

GARNET fan for 9 years 10 months; only bought albums for the past five years. Arashi fan for 2 months; joined the FC.

>154 Wouldn’t it be faster to hang around GIZA headquarters or one of the recording studios?

>154 Go to Yokohama or Fukuoka.

>150 lol I’ve kind of thought the same thing myself.

(Lives and events are great too, but) back when I was still a fan, I once ran into Ryoko Hirosue at my part-time job and got her autograph. I was incredibly excited〜 The place was Hiroo, Tokyo.

>160 You bastard, what an unbelievably off-topic post! I’ll never forgive you!! But I’m a little jealous. That’s the nice thing about artists—you can see them if you go to a live show!

>161 Sorry for going off-topic! I can’t wait for the live show in four days!

ON THE WAY is my favorite. It’s a high-energy song, which we haven’t had in a while, right? They should’ve made it a single.

I live in Kanto, but I’ve already booked a hotel in Osaka for New Year’s Eve. What am I gonna do if I can’t get a ticket…

What do you guys think of Elysium? Everyone always ends up talking about Stay, but Elysium is the one that really hits my sweet spot…

Nobody’s stopping you from showing off that sweet spot.

Late post, but I went to the Nagoya live〜 During one song, Yurippe did some kind of choreography (?) with a short punch, and it was adorable. She’s so cute… The live? It was the worst!! Maybe it was the venue, but the echo was so bad I couldn’t make out Yurippe’s voice. I’m not going to live shows anymore—just buying the albums.

It’s all Cowboy Kurose’s fault!! Come to think of it, the security guard in front of the stage in Nagoya had a face like a Showa-era delinquent. He had this “yoroshiku!” kind of vibe.

>165 It’s my favorite on the album.

>167 If you don’t already know the lyrics, you can’t make them out('A`) The sound engineering was way too half-assed this time. What a disgrace for Nagoya.

Kurose: “During our live broadcast on Music Station, while we were performing ‘Makenaide,’ I hit the cymbal stand way too hard and knocked it over, making a huge racket. I was depressed about the trouble that happened during the show, but Ms. Izumi smiled at me (‥)” ← Kurose might be surprisingly sensitive(´･ω･`)

Kurose-san…

>171 I think his skill is incredible, but couldn’t he rein it in a little more? Sakai let it slide, but Yurippe probably wouldn’t let him off so easilyｗ

I personally like Pon-san.

>171 Wait, a trip happened during the show?

>164 Seriously, it’d be the worst if you couldn’t get a ticket. The capacity is only 1,400. Please, I’m fine with standing room too… that’s how I feel.

For those who went to Nagoya: Did you hear any of “Hare Dokei,” “Koi Suru Koto Shika,” “Miss Holiday,” or “Kimi n’chi”? They definitely played “Futari no Rocket” and “Koyoi Eden,” right? Kind people, please tell me!

Of those, they only played “Rocket” and “Eden.”

Was this year’s live really that bad!? Personally, I thought the acoustic live on October 4 was amazing, so I’m looking forward to the tour too.

What does Yurippe’s pussy smell like?

Your abbreviations are pretty unique. I don’t think they played any of those four. Personally, I think “Jewel Fish” is GC’s best song, so I’d love to hear it live someday.

>179 They sing plenty from the latest album, and I won’t say more because that’d be spoiling it, but there are some unexpected songs too.

Did Yurippe’s voice come out well at the Nagoya live? Was she better than last year’s live?

Songs they didn’t need to play: Gofoi, Stay, Fall in Life, Rocket, Koizumi Spiral, Naist.

>176 I’m starting to get worried about whether I can get a ticket, orz

The thing I’m more worried about is whether there’s an age restriction. When do tickets go on sale?

I hope the Fukuoka show on the 18th doesn’t get postponed depending on the path of this new typhoon＞＜ If it gets postponed, will it become the final show? If so, maybe it’ll end up on the DVD.

If you want tickets, go to Musing. I’m looking forward to the C/W song “Clockwork Umbrella” too. Sakurap might explode on it.

To all the kind people who told me everything, and to Cherry Boy-kun, who told me everything but I still can’t tell whether he’s a good guy or just being mean, thank you all so much! I won’t get my hopes too high. I’ll relax and enjoy it! The last tour had a Disneyland-style setlist made up almost entirely of songs I like, so it’s a little disappointing that this one doesn’t… but at least there’s Neki-suka. I don’t listen to singles, so there are songs I don’t know. I’ll listen to them on YouTube beforehand.

>185 The song list feels similar to the previous tour. Is Argentina a regular?

I want to hear “Osenchi” live, though.

>171 >175 Everyone’s ignoring the “travel”〜

Did this live have a singalong contest too? Furui’s Sun Team Nana centime

>188 It won’t be postponed. It’ll be canceled. The ticket price will be refunded, minus the handling fees.

>195 I’d hate it if it came to that… They hardly ever come to Fukuoka…

Will this time’s DVD be recorded at Yokohama BLITZ? I got an email saying they were opening up camera seats at Akasaka.

It might surprisingly be Fukuoka…

For the songs Mochi sings, they should use album tracks or B-sides that Yurippe probably wouldn’t sing anyway.

>199 Whatever he sings, people will probably end up saying, “I wanted the original singer to sing it.” If the goal is to let Nakamura rest, then they should have him sing his own songs.

>197-198 One vote for Sapporo. Reason 1: Hokkaido has lots of delicious food, so the quality of the live will improve too. Reason 2: They said they’d film something while they were in Hokkaido. If the camera crew goes with them, maybe they’ll film the live too?

Yurippe and Mochi said on the radio that they’re apparently going to do something worth preserving forever on the first day in Osaka. It sounds like Mochi is going to do something. They also said something about him buying a new guitar for it. Yurippe hinted, “When you think of what a guitarist does at a live…” What on earth are they going to do…（´・ω・｀）

>202 He’ll go into the first-floor audience and busk.

Smash the guitar.

>202 Not the guitar—the guitar pick. And it’s merch, too.

Someone smashed a keyboard before too（´・ω・｀）

He’s going to throw picksｗ So that’s why they made themｗ He wanted to do it, huh. Mochi is adorable.

I think he used to throw picks before… Maybe at the first live（・ω・｀；)

>207-208 I have a feeling he’ll scatter mochi containing picks.

He was throwing picks(´∀｀) I wonder who picked one up at the first live? Mochi pulling a pick out of his pocket at the Hankyu event was moe.

The radio DJ said Yurippe smells sweet and nice. Is it perfume? I wonder what she wears.

I went to a ZARD live for the first time this year, and the sound was great. Why are they so different? I want to see a proper live show just once.

>211 She must be smearing on honey or something. You can’t even figure that outｗｗｗ

>213 Hmm, hmm. After all, she sings “such a sweeeet smeeeell” in the song. But if she puts honey on herself, wouldn’t she get all sticky?

I wanna turn into Winnie the Pooh and lick Yurippe all over(´Д｀)

Can ordinary people not win tickets to the countdown live?

>183 Her volume was about the same. As someone mentioned earlier, the sound system may have made her voice sound a little high and strained. The quieter songs, like the ballads, had a nice resonance.

What’s inside the pamphlet? Is it like a photo book? Are there no interviews or anything?

>215 People often tell me I look like Yurippe, just a little chubbier(´･ω･｀)

>210 When I was looking for a concert report, I think I saw the blog of the person who picked one up… I seem to remember it saying that they got every question right at a fan event and told Okamocchi about it onstage.

There are a lot of songs on this album whose style changes completely toward the end. I like songs like that.

>219 Good morning, Yoshimi Tendo.

It’s less her singing technique and more like she’s off-key. She’s about on Kaori Mochida’s level. Is she unable to sing because her ears are bad or something?

>217 I didn’t think her voice sounded strained; it felt more like she was singing in the original key. The sound probably wasn’t coming through clearly. >218 It’s mostly photos. The closest thing to interviews is each of the four talking about music (briefly). I’m not sure it was worth paying 3,000 yen for… though Nana-sama’s comments were uniquely interesting, as expectedｗ

I think the fact that you basically can’t understand the lyrics without subtitles is a fatal flaw.

Are the photos the kind where they’re wearing the same outfits as on the new album? Or are there unseen ones too?

>224 Thanks.

>225 Fans can understand because they’re used to listening to her. As for the live, it’s fine as long as the drums aren’t too loud.

He might do something like Krauser-san, playing guitar with his teeth, and Yurippe would go, “…That’s so old-fashioned.” Then Furui-san might do a little gag like, “Huh? Did you call me?” Mochi actually did a little tooth-guitar bit unnoticed at last year’s live, though. If he’s going to do something, I want to see Mochi’s guitar solo—some insanely impressive technique!

Something worth preserving forever… It’d be great if he smashed the drums with his guitar… Go wild like Yoshiki, Mochi!

>230 If Mochi did it, it’d probably turn into a comedy bit.

>225 Even as a fan, I still can’t tell what Yurippe is singing without looking at the lyrics. It’s not just Gane, though.

What high school did Yurippe go to, I wonder〜? We could find out if we looked up every high school in Kyoto, right?

>216 I wonder if there’ll be a general sale. Maybe Pia and e+ will take pity on us and release a few tickets.

>232 I hear it as, “In the dream of time, hold me too / work together as needed, and I’ll be at peace.”

The countdown probably has an allocation for each group, right? I’m guessing it’s FC-only.

>211 Yuri’s manju.

>235 Try submitting it to the Gane☆Radio mondegreens corner. They might use itｗ

They say the arrangement is amazing. ttp://babylonsist.blog105.fc2.com/blog-entry-195.html

It kind of sounds like people are calling it half-assedｗ

>239 Yurippe and Nana are pure and noble, and the old guy is talented, apparently.

Whose blog is it?

>242 Yurippe’s.

Does this pamphlet have more pages than last year’s tour pamphlet? That one was practically a rip-off. Also, did the setlist change depending on the venue on past tours?

Apparently the Osaka day-one and day-two setlists are different, and the staging changes completely too. I don’t know about the other places.

Why did they change the lyrics to “Saikō na Kibun tte Nando mo Iwasenaide” starting with the Nagoya live?

Looks like the drama tie-in starting next January has been decided.

Apparently.

>247 What’s a drama tie-in? Please tell us more.

Miso Nikomi Udon, right?

If I line up first thing in the morning for the Yokohama live, can I get the front row?

>244 Agreed. Last year’s really didn’t have many pages. They even reused the “Yume no Hitotsu” jacket photo. That squishy cover was a pain to find somewhere to putｗ

>247 Arashi again?ｗｗｗ

>251 There are people who queue overnight, so first thing in the morning won’t cut it.

What are the photos inside this year’s live pamphlet like? They didn’t reuse old ones, right? If they’re just like the new album, that’d be kind of disappointing…

Just buy it and see for yourself.

I’m so curious〜(*>△<*) Are there any cute Yurippe photos?

>251 In queue-number order…

>251 You’re pretty funny.

Is it because Yurippe’s tongue is long that the lyrics are hard to understand? Or is it because it’s short and can’t get the words across? Anyway, I want her to give me a blowjob so I can check.

I think GARNET would be better suited to movie tie-ins, but that’s impossible in the current climate. It’s a shame, since the songs on the album are so good.

>261 Was Kenshiro waving his hands around while singing “Hyakunen noーKodokuーniー♪” really such a huge hit?ｗ

>206 > Someone smashed a keyboard too（´・ω・｀）

That was an anime movie.

Nothing is impossible for GARNET CROW. The 21st-century world standard, even recognized by that Cowboy Kurose. GARNET CROW is the global standard for 21st-century music solutions! Come on, you too can become the darling of the age in Nana-sama’s garden of lyrics! Here on 2ch, immature people who lack the skill to properly appreciate Yurippe’s sacred hymns tend to put down Okamochi while conveniently ignoring their own incompetence. But no matter how loudly the immature ones shout, GARNET CROW’s value will not go down. Rather, this is the perfect opportunity to show the world the greatness of arrangement king Furui. I’ll say it again: nothing is impossible for GARNET CROW! If GARNET CROW has a limit, that is the limit of human civilization.

>265 Yeah, yeah. Nice work.

>265 Quit making crappy threads, loser.

Huh? Did they start a new thread?

Apparently Yurippe used to be a go-home club member.

The lyric “The sun from the sky shines down on this town, without even enough heat to burn it all away” really hit me! Personally, I think “Stay” has the strongest sense of impermanence and emotional coldness of any of their songs so far.

>265 Go file a deletion request for this crappy thread.

How long is the live show?

About two hours.

It was two and a half hours in Nagoya.

I’ve only ever been to X concerts, so I’m hesitant.

They’ve been getting longer every year〜 The number of songs is increasing too.

Gane lives don’t do any X-Jump stuffｗ They’re quiet, mellow adult concerts with a high level of musicianship.

ID:XW6MAG800 ID:4kNlqz5BO The person starting the threads is ID:XW6MAG800, right? I think they’re the same person, so why isn’t the mobile ID 4kNlqz5BO using sage?

The new song being titled “Miso Nikomi Udon” is fake news, right? If it’s not fake, I’m about ready to quit the FCｗｗｗｗ

The drama “My Girl” was good. TV Asahi can do it after all. I thought TV Asahi meant crappy dramas.

I’m going to my first live show on the 12th, but of all days, I ended up having to work that day… Is it possible to enter after the show has started?

It is. Do your best to make it in time.

>280 Arashi-chan, go home.

Things Arashi gave me.

I’m listening to Best for the first time in ages, and I feel like she belts a lot more than she used to.

>280 The child actor’s talking was so annoying I changed the channel immediately.

STAY is pretty good. But… ・1st and 2nd albums ・Debut through 12th singles GARNET CROW was god-tier during that period…

Really? I’m a newer fan, but I prefer the 5th and 6th. The poppy melodies make them easier to get into.

I like the 1st through 5th and the 7th, but I just can’t get into the 6th…

>288 Hard agree!

I want her to belt out the pop songs, and sing the ballads and mid-tempo songs more lightly.

I’m looking forward to reports from the Hiroshima-area agents today.

Personally, I think Towa Bare is the pinnacle. It’s especially dark overall, but it also feels like the one with the most hope hidden inside. I like the jacket too.

Ninnaji otaku are annoyingｗｗｗｗ

I’ve always liked sunsets and inorganic buildings, so I loved the 5th.

The tickets should be shipped in about three days, right?

The buildings in the STAY PV are beautiful, but Mochi can stay out of it.

The internet said the tickets were sold out, but when I checked Loppi, there were actually plenty left everywhere.

I like every album, but if I had to choose, I prefer the even-numbered albums.

>282 Thanks! If it comes down to it, I’ll sneak out somehow.

Yurippe sending Mochi a photo of what she ate on promotional trips is so cute. You normally send that kind of thing to your boyfriendｗ Why don’t they just start dating already? They spend that much time together, and Mochi is still a man.

>301 Mochi and Yuri are probably dating, right? Nana-sama never uses emoticonsｗｗｗｗ

What kind of sex do Mochi and Yuri have? I desperately want details!

My Namba Hatch ticket arrived—number in the 1200s. I’m not the type to get rowdy, so whatever. Honestly, I’d rather sit and listen.

I want GARNET CROW to appear on Kōhaku as Mai Kuraki’s supporting act. It’s at NHK Osaka Hall, after all… And SMAP and TOKIO should make way for the younger generation! I want to see Arashi appear.

I wanted to watch the “flying” PV, but everywhere only has the short version that’s about 1:54. Is there anywhere I can watch the full version?

Any Hiroshima intel yet?

>306 All the PVs for singles before “call my name” were only made partway through.

I remember seeing this in some video before: in some documentary-like footage from before a live show, Nana was fiddling with the lighting, touched the light, and reacted like, “Ow, this is hot!” What video was that from? Sorry if I’m remembering it wrong.

>308 Oh, really… What a waste…＞＜ I really wanted to see the full “Naked Story” PV〜 I guess I’ll watch the “Namida no Yesterday” PV instead…

>301 She sent it to all the members, right? She said so at a fan event.

>310 Isn’t the “Naked Story” PV the one where Yuri and Nana fool around with balloons in front of the camera? A super low-budget PV〜

The one where a balloon hits Yurippe right in the faceｗ

>309 The Ninnaji DVD.

Didn’t “Naked Story” have two PVs? I think the other one was a version that looked like footage of them recording in the studio.

I was watching a HEY×3 talk video just now, and Nana-sama talking about Furui’s super-punctilious habits had me dying.

Correction: the punctilious one was Yurippeｗ Furui was the one who left home early because the Shinkansen was delayed, only it wasn’t the Shinkansenｗｗ Seeing this, Nana-sama really was doing all the talking〜

Is the NHK countdown live FC-only??

>304 Even in a normal hall, most people in the first-floor seats stand up, so if you stay seated you won’t be able to see anything in front of you.

>314 Thank you. I skimmed through the DVD before posting to look for it, but I didn’t notice any scene that looked like that. I’ll go through it carefully and look again.

>303 What is AZUKI Nana’s sex like?

I missed HEY×3… And I didn’t record it either…orz

Hiroshima has started.

>311 She didn’t say that at the Hitomi event. They only talked about emailing the members. She said on the radio that she’d sent it to Okamocchi.

>322 You can watch it on the Chinese video site called Tudou.

>317 The only sensible thing Mochi said was, “If the members travel abroad together, it has to be somewhere with lots of Japanese people.”

>322 I recorded it, watched it a few times, and deleted it. It wasn’t very interesting＾＾

>301 They’re obviously dating. Even if they aren’t, they’ve done it several times.

>328 You won’t shake me with some baseless lie like that! Y-Y-Yurippe has to be a virgin!

>324 There was only Mochi there for the radio appearance, right? At the Osaka FC event, she said she sent it to all the members. Yurippe also said Okamocchi’s emails always end with “m(_ _)m,” and that Nana only sends emoji-filled emails to Yurippe.

There was an interview with the sound designer covering the guitar solo in “Doing all right” and other equipment-related topics.

Yurippe is a dead fish. Nana goes wild.

I’m a new member, and my Fukuoka ticket is in the low two digits. Now I’ll be able to see Nana-sama up close.

>332 Just so you know, a tuna’s muscle strength is no joke, okay?

Anyone who went to the Hiroshima event〜 How was it?

It just ended. Yume Mita Atode Hana wa Saite STAY Koi no Aima ni Koi no Aima ni

Koi no Aima ni? They sang it〜!? They didn’t even sing it at the live show//

What was Yurippe wearing?

>338 You couldn’t see her cleavage.

>337 They sang it twice with different content.

Seriously?

I want to know what kind of outfit Yurippe was wearing… Was it the same as at Lazona and Nishinomiya?

>342 It was different.

>339 Excellent swift suppression of Cleavage-kun.

>339 Good job!

I wonder if photos will be uploaded to the Hiroshima radio blog… I don’t know the URL…

>336 Haven’t you traveled all over the country?

>347 Not really.

>346 ttp://hfmweb.jp/lor/index.html

What kind of outfit?

The ticket arrived, but it’s ridiculously far back…orz

Everyone has probably forgotten, but here’s the album chart anyway(´･ω･`) : *9 11 13 34 38 39／36　GARNET CROW “STAY ~Yoake no Soul~” :

>351 Serves you rightｗｗｗｗｗｗｗ

Are the cameras for the DVD going in at the Yokohama show the day after tomorrow?

She says she’s going to Yokohama too.

It’s so far back it might as well be the last row… Maybe I just won’t go(･ω･)

>356 Serves you rightｗｗｗｗ

>356 I’m in Yokohama too, and my queue number is really late. I’m losing the motivation to go… and transportation is expensive too…

>356 Serves you rightｗｗｗｗｗｗｗ Your misfortune makes my dinner taste good again todayｗｗｗｗ

>352 That’s a huge drop. It’ll probably just barely reach 30,000. A first-week drop of 9,000 from the previous album is seriously bad, orz

You can walk there from JR Yokohama, right?（´・ω・｀）

( ^ω^) This is my first time getting a number in the 1000s.

I’m in the latter part of the 10s. I can aim for the second rowｗｗｗｗ

Late 300s… basically 400. Ah, if only everyone ahead of me would get the flu.

If you’re way in the back, you start feeling, “What did I even come here for…? What’s the point of watching it on a monitor…”

Front row is 6,000 yen. Last row of the second floor is also 6,000 yen.

>364 What if everyone gets the flu and still comes? Fans will come no matter whatｗ

>364 Don’t write stuff like that. They’ve been saying since way back, “If you curse someone, dig two graves.”

Even though people keep writing that the Nagoya live was “awful,” there are still lots of people looking forward to it. I’m going to the latter Tokyo show, but I’m scared of the comments after the next live　＞＿＜

>368 Those two holes mean Yuri and Nana-sama’s pussies? >369 It’ll be good or bad depending on the setlist and Kurose.

I bought my Osaka live ticket through the general sale and got a number in the 400s, but apparently there are even people in the FC allotment with worse numbers. Does joining the fan club not really have much to do with getting a good seat?

I went to the Hiroshima event, so this is late, but here’s a report. The songs were as 336 said. Apparently she messed up the lyrics to Koi no Aima ni, so they did it over. Yurippe was wearing a pink-and-black plaid shirt with jeans. Her hair was tied with elastics in two places, kind of like twin tails. Okamocchi was wearing a beret and a green shirt. They apparently handed out around 100 numbered tickets, but about 20–30 extra people came to watch too. They sang seated, but it was wonderful. It was my first time hearing her sing live, and I’m glad I got to. Yurippe air-pianoing during the instrumental break was cuteｗ

>372 Thanks Air piano!?

I’m in the FC allotment, but I got a number in the 800s for Yokohamaorz

>372 Thanks

I think twin tails would suit Yurippe. Though she might look like Gal Sone, like she did on GARNET TIME＾＾

>372 Didn’t you see her cleavage when she bowed?

Someone do something about this cleavage idiot.

What counts as a good queue number for everyone?

>372 I thought there were 100+ more people. There were people all the way to the back of the floor.

>380 Didn’t you see her cleavage when she bowed?

If someone said “I saw it,” would that satisfy you?

You want someone to say there’s no cleavage visible on Yurippe, don’t you?

http://m.mixi.jp/show_friend.pl?&id=21981160

I’m in the 300s on the first floor for the Osaka live. Is it hard to see from the side? In case I faint after seeing Yurippe in person, I’d rather be somewhere by the wall that looks like it’ll be empty…

>374 I mentioned it before, but I’m in the 1200s… This is unbelievable…

>325　Glad I got to see it again after so long. 　　　　I was happy, so I uploaded it. Here’s the rest. http://www.e-kuraberu.net/uploader/src/kuraberu10224.zip.html PW gc　　Deleted at 12 The songs have been removed. It’s a really good album, so buy it and give it a listen.

>387 Does it have the mini-drama with Yurippe and Mochi too?

>387 I’m not really sure how to use this…ｏｒｚ Even when I enter PW gc in the part labeled ＰＡＳＳ, it says, “The download password doesn’t match.” （´・ω・｀）

>379 Up to number 99.

>389

>385 I’m in the 500s on the first floor, but I injured my arm after buying the ticket, and it doesn’t even look like it’ll heal by the day of the show｡･ﾟ･(ﾉД`)･ﾟ･｡

>387 Please upload the mini-drama with Yurippe and Mochi from STARDUST PARADE. Please upload the part where Yurippe interacts with Mochi, saying things like “Don’t be spoiled.”

>392 Serves you rightｗｗｗｗ This is deliciousｗｗｗｗ Stay quietly in the backｗｗｗｗ

>387 I can’t download it.

>394 That’s what I’m planning to do.

>387 I’m the same person as 325. Tell me how to download it.

So, let’s give up! 　　＼　|　／ 　　― Θ ― 　　／　°＼ 　　　 ('A`) 　　　 ノヽノヽ 　　　　 　くく

ＧＺ女目死直分

I’ve been learning classical piano since kindergarten. I was in the go-home club, but once joined a choir competition as a fill-in.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm7197424 Listen to it.

Are most of the audience otaku-ish middle-aged guys??

>410 If anything, middle-aged and older people stand out (in Nagoya).

I feel like there were lots of young people at this year’s Hitomi FC event. But there were quite a few otaku-ish old guys at the Kawasaki event, and I watched them while feeling sorry for them. Yurippe seems like the type who doesn’t like dealing with people she’s not into. She’s definitely a face person.

>412 >But there were quite a few otaku-ish old guys at the Kawasaki event, >and I watched them while feeling sorry for them. 　Here, a mirror.

>1-1000 　Here, a mirror.

>413 Think about why you can say things like that before replying.

There are things that can’t be fully expressed even with more than a thousand words, but you’d be sorely mistaken if you think you can get something across to people without saying it all.

I wonder how those middle-aged guys who seem to have drifted over from idol fandom ended up at Gane.

>417 Maybe because Gane itself grew out of Mai Kuraki’s support staff? At Nagoya, there was this guy who kept raising his hand and constantly blocked Yurippe with his arm. I was about to lose it, but then he must’ve run out of stamina and suddenly stopped raising it, which cracked me upｗ

Sorry, but if you like GARNET CROW, looks don’t matter; for those going to the Yokohama live, please do something about your body odor and bad breath! I went to Hitomi and Kawasaki, and it was seriously bad. Kawasaki didn’t even have that many people…

>419 I’m beautiful, so I’m fine.

>420 It’s stink, stink! It’s not just the old guys—the young ones were pretty bad too. You’ll pass out! It’s basic manners, so please take care of it.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm8476857 I don’t like Yurippe’s voice here—it sounds like Okamoto’s mom, or like Doraemon talking to Nobita. Act more lovely, damn it.

Is it true there are pictures of Nana-san back when she was a child actress?? Apparently she co-starred with Takashi Matsuo??

She wasn’t a child actress. Nana-sama is 18.

>422 I think it’s because this was her performance at 11 p.m. Apparently Yurippe used a really sweet, clingy voice when she talked with Mochi at 10 p.m. Someone please upload the mini-drama of Yurippe and Mochi’s exchange from 10 p.m.

PV collection I hear the troll’s ARASHI is coming out. But I’ve never heard anything about Gane. What we know at this point: Drama tie-in　None PV collection　None Single release　Undecided

But for the fifth anniversary, they put out something like a five-year history bundled with a live DVD, even though it wasn’t a PV collection, right?

>424 I just found the picture and checked it, but she’s clearly dressed like an elementary schooler, no matter how you look at it?? 18??

I hope they put out a PV collection for the 10th anniversary. I don’t need a collection of B-sides or anything. I don’t need a best album either.

I don’t need a PV collection either.

I don’t need anything.

We don’t need you guys either.

Ah, he had a meltdown＾＾；

The PV collection is October 28, and the first-press run has sold out. The single is “My Girl” on November 11. Next year: a TBS Sunday 9 p.m. drama starring Arashi, an Olympic song, an au commercial song…

Arashi wota, seriously tone it down. You’re annoying.

Even if you promote Arashi, nobody in this thread is going to buy it.

I like Arashi, but I don’t buy their releases. At most, I download them and listen to them.

Is this for real? http://detail.chiebukuro.yahoo.co.jp/qa/question_detail/q1223591197 Aiba-chan is a GARNET CROW fan!?

Who?

I’m the opposite of 437. I like Arashi because the songs on their releases are good. Same with Gane.

>438 Couldn’t the respondent simply like GIZA-style songs, that’s all?

I’ve started to hate Arashi because of all the Arashi fans infesting this thread.

>423-424 GARNET CROW: The shocking past of the “too-beautiful keyboardist.”

Arashi doesn’t sing live, right? They lip-sync, so they have nothing to do with music.

Among Johnny’s, I think the ones who lip-sync are: KinKi Kanjani SMAP V6

Add Yamapi too. He can’t sing because his dancing is too intense.

>421 Is AZUKI Nana smelly?

>447 She smells just like your mom.

>421>447 Well… they say that when you get older, there’s an old man under the makeup, so it can’t be helped.

>428 No, she’s neither 18 nor an elementary schooler.

Looks like the cameras for the DVD shoot are going in tomorrow after all.

Best album before the tour!? Or after the tour!? Predictions for GARNET CROW releases next year, first half: Late January　Lead single March　Best album Mid-April　Conan movie tie-in single

I image-searched GARNET CROW on Yahoo, and for some reason an erotic picture came up first.

The DVD footage will be bonus content for the best album. Best 1　Live footage Best 2　Photo book Best 3　Regular edition

>453 For realｗ The second one too.

This is awfulｗ It doesn’t change even when I set the filter to highｗ Even if you turn filtering off on Google, no erotic pictures come upｗ

Is the Conan movie tie-in almost decided?

The acquaintance I’m supposed to go to the live with tomorrow still hasn’t contacted me. I’m holding the tickets, so unless they get in touch soon, I can’t invite another friend either. It’d really screw me over if they waited until right before the show to say, “Sorry, I can’t go after all.” (^ω＾ ;)) ((; ＾ω^)

>457 It’s a contest with Rina Aiuchi, but I guess GARNET will be chosen? And, without reading the room, if it’s BREAKERZ, I’m not going to the movies.

How old are you?

My live ticket is number 39×-something. About how many rows from the front do you think I’ll be able to see from there?

In Nagoya, a number in the low 300s got me around the fifth row.

Lucky… I’m in the latter part of the 300s, so it might be iffy. I guess I’ll be happy if I can see from around the tenth row at least… By the way, which is easier to see from, the side or the center? I’m short, not even 150 cm tall (sob).

By the way, they’ll line us up strictly starting from number 1, right? They won’t just roughly skip by 100 or something, right? Sorry for all the questions!! Please answer me m(_ _)m

Yurippe is a stickler for details.

>464 They line up like 1–100, 101–200, and so on. There’s an announcement telling the people with the numbers in between to check with one another, but I hardly saw anyone actually checking.

How do they even get people to line up in number order? In the empty space of a cramped live venueｗ

It’ll be the worst if it rains like it did in Nagoya. I wonder if tomorrow will be okay.

We paid for this, so there’s no way it’s unreserved… Assign the seat numbers in advance already.

I wanted them to do a B’z cover on the tour.

Live houses often have day-of tickets even when the show is sold out. Door-open tickets. Are they going to sell them? If they do, the seats will definitely be better than the fan-club ticket I have, so I want to buy one.

Apparently it’s easier to move toward the front from the old-guy side.

>469 The seats themselves don’t exist.

The old-guy side, huh… It’s not actually easier to see Yurippe from the old-guy side, is it…

Which would you choose: the old-guy side near the front, or Yurippe’s side in the center, even if it’s a little farther back?

How do they line people up at Namba Hatch?

Why are you idiots lining up in Osaka? Just cheat your way toward the front. It’s Osaka, after all. People who follow the rules are the weird ones. Let’s go full freedom.

At Western hardcore punk shows and the like, even when the tickets are sold out, the front can be half-empty. People who mosh and stage-dive stroll in later and take over the very front. Queue numbers don’t matterｗ

>477 Is Namba Hatch unreserved seating?

This might not have much to do with GARNET CROW, but I’m a virgin（´・ω・｀）

>469 This is the first time I’ve seen an idiot say something like that.

I have to buy the merch and the MFM GARNET feature, but if there aren’t enough lockers, I might have to use the ones at Yokohama Station as a last resort. If I carry everything inside, I’ll probably get crushed in the crowd. Should I buy the whole set…? I’m torn. I honestly don’t need the stickers or the weird bag…

Standing with unreserved spots is rough. You have to claim a spot, so once the doors open you have to stand there the whole time… Gane’s recent lives have been pretty long too, which makes it even harder…

>483 Thirty minutes from lining up to the doors opening, one hour from the doors opening to the start, and two and a half hours from the start to the end. So that’s about four hours of standing nonstop. That’ll be rough for the girls.

Among this tour’s merch, Mochi’s guitar picks are the only thing with a really reasonable price: two for 500 yen… Even though I can’t play guitar, I’m tempted to buy them… And they have serial numbers on them too, right? That’s what they said at the FC event, anyway.

Just bring in a captain’s chair like the ones people use for camping. There’s also the wheelchair strategy. Looks like Yokohama BLITZ won’t have enough lockers. We’ll just have to use the lockers at the Marinos Stadium as a little loophole.

>484 Standing for four hours at a late-autumn live will be brutal! Give us a bathroom break.

Is tomorrow’s end time around 8:40? By the way, I’m a virgin worried about whether I’ll catch the last train（´・ω・｀）

Are they planning some kind of go-slow?

I’m a virgin, but is Yokohama BLITZ okay with people bringing drinks inside?

Another weirdo’s here.

>487 Well, if they gave us a bathroom break, someone would take your spot while you were gone. It’ll be so packed you probably won’t even have room to stretch your legs.

I’m probably going to get another blown kiss from Yurippe. I’ll be so embarrassed. There are only plain-looking girls among the female fans, huh? A lot of them come alone too. Do they not have any friends? I’m a little worried about that.

>490 Freeze your tea and take it with you.

Doesn’t this album have anything besides “O-senchi” and “Roufujin”?

>493 Even if you invite friends who don’t know GARNET CROW, they’ll just be bored.

Are the venues on this tour standing-only venues? Was Nagoya standing too?

I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s setlist^^ They don’t need to do “Go For It” or “Nekisuto”; they should do “Reiei,” LLS, “Waiyau,” and “Endeza”!

>497 It isn’t a standing-only venue, but this time they’re using it as a standing venue. Also, I’m a cherry boy.

>493 You’re the one I’m most worried about.

>497 It was standing.

I want Yuri to take my virginity（´；ω；｀）

>502 You should send a message through the official site, or try asking during the live MC.

Back in 2002, didn’t Zepp Fukuoka and Namba Hatch have chairs? Were they not even holding 1,000 people back then?

>504 They had chairs.

So they didn’t have 1,000 people back then? I thought there were more than 1,000. It was a smaller crowd than that. I’d completely forgotten.

The park parking lot looks like it’ll be the cheapest, but it isn’t open 24 hours. Sogo starts charging after three hours too. Where is everyone planning to park?

He’s planning to go by car or something, but he can’t even afford the parking fee?

When you look at the young men who come to GARNET CROW lives, they’re all herbivore men. Even when they’re couples, the men are herbivores too. The old guys have more character. Some of them even look pretty dandy.

I can’t believe there are really people who use a term like “herbivore men”… Anyway, Gane otaku aren’t so much herbivore men as just wimpy… kind of otaku-ish, I guess. They mostly sing anime theme songs, so I think those kinds of people have simply flocked here in large numbers.

The first shipment has sold out!!

>510 Most of them aren’t really that otaku-ish. Their fashion sense isn’t that bad either, and they seem to care about it. It’s just that they seem kind of low-energy, or maybe like herbivores?

Does the setlist change depending on the venue?

Do people do arrival- and departure-watching at GARNET CROW lives too?

>470 That’s a dark chapter for old guys.

Lots of people think wearing mostly black makes them fashionable, huh.

Actually, the guy in the all-blue tracksuit shown in the Towa Bare DVD is the truly fashionable one. Comfort is everything.

Wheeee

>516 That’s exactly my sense of style…orz

When I hum “hello sadness,” for some reason it turns into B’z’s “Splash” halfway through, and it throws me off（´・ω・｀）

My ticket for tomorrow is in the 1200s. Is there any way I can watch from the front row?

>521 No chance, you loser.

Are there really any fans who want standing live shows? I’ve never seen anyone say anything positive about it. I hope this is a one-time thing. By the way, is Music Freak Magazine out already? I went to my usual store yesterday and today, but it wasn’t thereorz

Of course there is! Just say “Excuse me” and move toward the front. You still enter in queue-number order. Once you’re inside, it’s fine to cut in front.

I thought standing live shows didn’t really suit GARNET CROW. Though thanks to it, I did get to see Nana-sama from extremely close up.

>523 It’s published on the 10th of every month, so it should’ve come out yesterday, right?

Nana is short, right?

>526 That’s weird. I went yesterday evening, and it wasn’t there. Can it really sell out in half a day? It’s always definitely still there until around the 12th.

>528 I don’t know about that, but… This month’s issue includes an application form for the GARNET CROW MFM reprint, so maybe Gane fans took them all?

Tomorrow I want to hear “nonsense,” “Yume Hanabi,” and “Wasurezaki.”

>529 I see, that’s possible. I’ll go look one more time tomorrow, and if it’s not there, I’ll give up. Apparently it’s going to become paid from now on. 4,200 yen a year. I wouldn’t pay to look at it.

Have they ever performed “Jewel Fish” live?

>532 Really? Wasn’t MFM going to be discontinued with the December issue?

I still haven’t gotten over the excitement of getting to talk with Yurippe at last Sunday’s event. Yurippe was so cute, smiling as she answered me〜

>533 It’ll be free through December, and apparently starting next year they’ll mail it monthly to paid members. Though I do wonder how long it’ll last.

>532 (´･ω･)「Jewel Fish is pretty difficult, so it’s sealed away.」

Give it a shot.

“Kurige” is sealed away too.

I’d like to hear “Endeza,” “Rairaiya” (←for some reason I can’t convert it), “Kazane,” “Himawari,” and “Eromu” too.

>534 It really did make my heart skip a beatｗ Actually, because of where I was sitting, Yurippe and I made eye contact. (It was a little awkwardｗ) But I don’t know why. I’ve gotten excited looking at pictures, but seeing her that close in person, I didn’t feel much sexual excitement, and I didn’t have any desire to take her home or be taken home. I don’t know why. She really is beautiful, and her soft, plump lips are amazing, but seeing her up close just didn’t make me feel horny personally.

>535 Oh, is that so? I want this month’s issue too, because I want to buy the MFM reprint. Worst case, I can buy it from the website, so I guess it’s fine.

I haven’t seen MFM this month. It wasn’t even at HMV, where it’s usually still in stock. Maybe it hasn’t arrived yet?

>540 Yeah, I kind of get what you mean. I wonder what it is. Maybe feeling that someone is beautiful or cute is a separate thing from sexual excitement.

This is too intense for a virgin like me. The sparking in my dick won’t stop（´・ω・｀）

>544 Good for you, fuckboy.

MFM will hit the shelves after Monday, because of the delivery schedule.

I brought MFM home yesterday. I’m in Saitama, though.

My number for tomorrow’s live is in the 400s, almost 500. After reading these posts, I’m starting to feel like I might be able to get around the tenth-something row. I can’t decide whether to go to the venue early or arrive at the last minute… My legs and back are still pretty sturdy, but my age (ry

>548 If you’re not there when the doors open, the people in front will grab the good spots first, no matter how early your queue number is, you know?

Come to next year’s live, where you can watch comfortably from a chair!

>546 That would be good, but this month’s cover is B’z, so it might have sold out quickly.

I love “Watashi no Kaze” sung by Yurippe(*´∀｀*)

Once you get MFM, turn the cover around!

As the live gets closer, am I really the only one who starts seeing everyone around the venue as a GARNET fan?

What should I do if I hit my limit standing halfway through?

>554 I know what you mean. I start assuming anyone wearing black is a GARNET fanｗ

>554 Yep, yep.ｗ On the way back to Nagoya Station, I heard an older lady saying, “Yuri-chan was great, huh.”

My number is in the A1100s. Is that toward the back? About what number is the very last one?

Same here(´｡･∀･) 人(･∀･｡`)

>558 Apparently the fan-club allotment is A, followed by the general allotment B. So at least it shouldn’t be the very last one…

I’m 558, and since I’m going to be in the back anyway, I was thinking of arriving at the last minute and watching from the very back… But standing for almost four hours sounds rough.

You can lean against the barricade and rest if you’re near it, right? That’s what I always do.

I bought a general-sale ticket for Namba Hatch, and it doesn’t say A or anything—it’s unmarked… Does Namba Hatch not separate the fan-club and general allotments? What about everyone else?

They didn’t separate them in Nagoya, so it depends on the venue.

>561 Apparently the first-floor standing capacity at Yokohama BLITZ is 1,400 people. That means there’ll be nearly 300 people behind you. So if you’re satisfied with that position… Well, my queue number is even farther back, so I might go in last too… I was completely exhausted after the last standing live…

I mean, have none of you ever seen a live show at a live house? I mostly go to rock shows, so almost all of the shows I go to are at live houses. I’m going to Namba Hatch this time. For the entry order, everyone first lines up roughly by queue number near the entrance, and the staff call out, “People numbered 1 through 10, please come in〜,” in groups of about ten, so you enter accordingly. If you have a number 20 ticket but arrive late, even if they’re currently calling numbers 100 through 110, people whose numbers have already been called can still enter. When you go in, you hand over your ticket and the 500-yen drink fee, and they give you a drink ticket. Once you’re inside, it’s free seating. You can go get your drink first, or wait until after the live ends. You can get either a plastic bottle or a paper cup. The paper cup has more choices, like juice. Also, if you have a lot of luggage, there are lockers, so use them properly. If you leave your stuff on the floor, it’ll get stepped on when the live starts and the venue goes dark, and backpacks worn on your back are easy to steal. They’re a nuisance in the first place. I think there was a barricade and a step around the middle of the venue. It isn’t very wide, so you can see even from the very back, but short people will have trouble because the person in front blocks their view. This is my first GARNET live, but I’m sure there won’t be any moshing, so if you have a late queue number and no live-house experience, I don’t think you’ll be able to make your way to the front. Also, any old guys complaining that standing the whole time is hard can sit on the floor at the very back. You won’t be able to see anything, though. That got long, but I hope you get the idea now.

>566 Thanks for the detailed explanation!

>566 I’m not even going to the live, but your post moved me!

>514 I happened to see Yurippe getting out of a car once, when my university was holding a school festival or something.

>520 Me too(^0^)/

Is it okay to bring your own drinks into Yokohama BLITZ today?

>566 Thank You

>536-538 I’ve sung “Jewel Fish” at karaoke, and it wasn’t that difficult. “Kurige” was insanely hard. I can’t believe they performed it at Livescope.

Kurose: “I held back in Nagoya, but in Yokohama I’m going all out, 　　so feel my scorching machine-gun drums in your bones!!”

>566 Basically, it’s the same as a bread factory.

I forgot about the drink feeｗ What happens if I don’t pay it?

Will the merch sell out if I don’t buy it before the live? I absolutely want the MFM and the pamphlet…

Will they have hot sake today? It gets cold at night.

The pre-sale of official merch before doors open at Yokohama BLITZ on Monday, October 12, a holiday, is scheduled to start at “15:00.” The sales area will be crowded around entry time and after the show, so we recommend buying your merch in advance. ※The pre-sale time may shift depending on the weather and other conditions on the day. Please be advised.

>577 There’s a good chance MFM will sell out!

So there really aren’t any same-day ticketsorz

>580 Is that so!! But if I buy merch, I’ll have to put it in a locker, so I’ll lose time claiming my spot…orz

>582 MFM is available by mail order, so you can get it even if it sells out.

People who went to the fan-club event should’ve gotten the mail-order form for MFM, and they should be handing it out today too.

The shipping fee for mail order is brutalｗ

>561 |ω・`）558? That’s close…

Are they selling drinks in front of the venue? Can I bring in a plastic bottle?

>573 What, really? I sing “Jewel Fish” sometimes too, but if I don’t lower the key, I can’t keep up with the high notes in my natural voice, so I can’t sing itｗｗ I thought it was pretty difficult even after lowering the key. “Kurige” is actually easier for me to sing.

>581 If your queue number is around 460, I have one extra ticket.

Why do Arashi fans start trolling so quickly?

I made it to BLITZ, but there’s still no one here. What time is everyone coming?

>591 Scheduled to arrive at 14:45.

Fifteen minutes before the doors open should be fine, right? I’m A-11×× anyway…(´･ω･`)

Please tell me when the merch sales end. The drink stand is outside—can I buy one before going in?

I got MFM. Everyone, go buy one.

Search results for Nakamura Yuri Other keywords: Nakamura Yuri birthplace　Nakamura Yuri “Watashi no Kaze”　Nakamura Yuri date of birth　Nakamura Yuri university　Nakamura Yuri cute

It’s nothing but couples here. Drop dead!

Search results for “Nakamura Yuri” Did you mean: Nakamura Yuri

Looks like the drink sales haven’t started yet…

>597 You should’ve invited a lover too.

They’ll probably still be selling merch after the show.

Man, it’s hilarious how everyone here is a beginner. You exchange your drink inside the venue after the doors open. At Yokohama BLITZ, they’ll let you do it outside after the show. But the time is limited, so you should head out quickly once it’s over. Other live houses sometimes don’t offer it after the show, though…

Do you exchange the drink when you enter? I bought merch and am taking a break. Good thing there’s a parking lot across the street.

The fans are mainly old men and old ladies, so it can’t be helped.

Looking at the pamphlet, I thought Yurippe had gotten older too. MFM shows that Mochi has changed a lot.

There aren’t any lockers, and Shin-Takashima is full too, so anyone with luggage should go to Yokohama Station. Also, since it’s standing, anyone who isn’t confident in their stamina should drink some Yunker and come! There’s a Lawson inside Sky Building, on the first floor or in the basement. Let’s enjoy ourselves today!

I just called to ask, and apparently they’ve opened up some camera seats, so there are a few available. I’m heading over now!

Even if your queue number is late, if you’re buying merch, come early and leave your merch and luggage at Yokohama Station!

I’m planning to arrive at Yokohama Station around five. Yoroshiku.

So it’s Yokohama today?

If I’m in the 800s, what time should I arrive?

October 12　Yokohama October 18　Fukuoka

I’m still on the train—are there no lockers available at Yokohama BLITZ?

Locker status: ・BLITZ… full ・Shin-Takashima… full ・Yokohama… a few spots left

So in the end, you guys are buying merch after allｗｗｗｗ

>614 Thanks. Guess I’ll leave it at Yokohama Station.

Things are really heating up.

>561 Identified!

It was too much trouble, so I left my bag in Shibuya^_^;

I’m walking over from Yokohama Station, but I’m lost〜

>620 If you’re on DOCOMO, Google Maps is recommended.

Please post the setlist.

Probably the same as Nagoya.

No uchiwa fans in the merch!?

There’s an interview in Monthly Kayokyoku, Interviewer: “The super-hyped song ‘Koi no Aima ni’…” You definitely haven’t listened to itｗｗ Even though it’s a magazine that once put them on the cover.

AZUKI-san arrived in a Lancia with Kyoto plates. Cool.

This is late, but most of the seventh album is god-tier.

So she drives a Lancia?

If it’s your first standing show and you’re short, you should resign yourself to going just to listen to the music. I mentioned this before, but at a Pan Factory live, even someone 175 cm tall could barely see from the middle while standing on tiptoe and craning their chin up… I’m so disappointed in GARNET CROW for not considering their audience.

Maybe I’ll wear platform sandals.

The Delta? Is that what she drives?

>629 Rather than the audience demographics, isn’t it just a height problem? They can’t exactly arrange things around the average height.

>626 What’s a Rancha? Lancer?

>633 It’s the Italian car Lancia, right?

Are glow sticks okay to use?

>635 Hard to say.

It’s over now. Furui-san got teased way too muchｗ

Setlist-posting team, please!

Fist of the North Star Cat Forgot the rest.

Were there any regional jokes?

Forgot way too muchｗ

The Yokohama bits were stuff like having appeared on TV before, and the talk about “バレ雷” showing up. Nana-san doesn’t seem to remember any of it.

Someone wrote on their blog that AZUKI came in alone by taxi, though.

It wasn’t an outfit where you could confirm Yurippe’s cleavage. Sorry to disappoint.

Yurippe doesn’t have enough boobs to make cleavage n Oops, someone seems to have arrived.

Got a pick.

Oops, our posts overlapped. >646 Thanks.

What I saw today: The back of Nana’s head. Can someone give details on Nana-sama’s car? How do you know about it?

What’s this dogeza thing?

>649 What kind of pick is it? The person next to me got one, and I was so jealous that I ended up buying one of the merch picks on the way home.

>647 I’d like to hear the details of each one.

The pick was signed by Mochi. It was No. 28. For people who got one from another member, was it signed by that member?

>652 Yurippe told everyone there was a live scheduled for February 7 next year. ↓ The fans prompted her to correct it, saying it was supposed to be the 27th. ↓ Yurippe panicked, was told the correct date by the fans, and did dogeza.

>655 Thanks. I looked over the merch, but there was no signature. Maybe I shouldn’t have given it away after all.

Did Yurippe actually do dogeza on the floor?

My queue number was 700, but I was on Furui-san’s side and still managed to get pretty far forward. Advice: The guitar solo in “Doing all right” is on Furui-san’s side, so it got really lively! The sing-along section looked rough for Nana-san’s side. If I’d been on Nana-san’s side too, it might’ve turned into an Okamocchi-style public execution. Furui-san is intense!

Today’s topics, continued: ・There’s a chance the old guy will take off his sunglasses next year. ・They added one extra replay of “Spiral” without getting anyone’s permission or approval. ・At the best live show early next year, they’ll probably perform songs that have been kept sealed away, like this one and that one.

All that over something like that…

Looks like the single version of “Natsumabo” is coming…

>658 It wasn’t a deep bow. She actually knelt down on the floor and did it.

（・∀・）“Jewel Fish” is coming!!

“Kuraga” too♪

I’m 148 cm tall and standing around the middle—there’s no way I can see, right (sob)? Did anyone at today’s live not be able to see the stage at all? Is there any good strategy…

Bring an orange crate.

>666 I’ll give you a shoulder ride.

It has to be a beer crate!

Did Yurippe wear twin tails for the encore? Was her outfit the same darkish one as in Nagoya?

Back in the Gane thread. It was my first live—was the noise level really supposed to be like that? The volume was too loud, or maybe the sound was too sharp. I was crying over how little energy there was for “Go For It.” The person next to me was taking notes of the setlist on their phone (write it quickly, then turn the screen off?). Apparently “Go For It” was the only title they didn’t know, so the screen light stayed on until the next song, “Boku Darake,” startedｗ

When the doors open, does everyone really run to claim a spot? It’s my first time at a live house, so I have no idea.

>670 The outfit was the same. I was mesmerized by “Hibi no Hotori” after the encore. I got so hard it felt like the underside of my dick was going to tear.

I saw her panties when she did dogeza. Even though it was through her stockings, she was completely off guard.

>672 You can’t dash. You enter slowly behind the staff member leading everyone in.

Did she keep both hands together when she did it?

I hope they keep doing standing shows from now on. Even with a mediocre number, you can see them up close.

>676 She did it properly with her hands in a V shape.

I want to sit in a chair and listen.

I’m 159 cm and around the middle. Will I be able to see? What if I need to use the bathroom halfway through? Maybe I should wear a diaper after all.

I got through it by taking Stoper stomach medicine. Standing for four hours is rough.

It was pretty close this time, right? Even people with early numbers chose to set up farther back on their own. The sound balance wasn’t very good either. Maybe it’ll improve after they’ve done a few more shows.

If you’re not used to doing dogeza, it’s pretty hard to pull off. Is she used to it?

>671 It echoed because it was a different venue from the usual one, but I thought the volume was about normal. I’d heard the drums were loud in Nagoya, so I was worried, but I thought today’s sound wasn’t bad. Only “Go For It” was awful.

What was the age range like? Were there any families there?

Waiting for over an hour is rough. There were people passing out too.

It was my first GARNET live, and I had fun… Even though I was on the second floor. Anyway, Team AZUKIｗ The staff kept going in and out without properly closing the second-floor door, which was annoying. It was even more irritating because I was close to it… though one of the women standing did close it once.

Was Yurippe’s outfit the same as in Nagoya?

>685 The ages were pretty mixed. There were a few parents and children too.

What’s the yakiniku song?

People kept cutting in with “Excuse me” even though several songs had already been played. I can understand if they’d been there from the beginning, but there must’ve been people who got pissed because their view was blocked.

I’ll just extend a bicycle seat and bring it with me.

>685 No. There were lots of people in their twenties.

How weak is your staminaｗｗ

>674 If Yurippe’s outfit was the same as in Nagoya, wasn’t she wearing pants? How could you see her panties?

>685 There were lots of middle-aged people toward the front. Maybe they used their money to get the good spots. I did see a girl with a parent.

>687 Were people standing on the second floor? Does the ticket actually say second floor? The second floor definitely has a better view.

Someone actually passed out…

What’s the point of handing out the questionnaire on the way home… This time they didn’t even write a fax number on it. It was fun, but a hall really is better.

>698 Of course someone did. Outside was still okay, but once you got inside it was hot and humid. Everyone was packed in front and behind you, so you couldn’t move at all. It was painful.

Wasn’t Yurippe wearing pants? How could you see her panties?

>684 So that’s just how loud it was. It’s one thing if it’s the second half, when the crowd has warmed up, but that volume from the very beginning was hard to listen to. The drums really did feel too loud.

It was my first Gane live, and it was more intense than I expected. By the end, my arms were deadｗ Also, Yurippe and Nana-sama were unbelievably beautiful up close.

The wait was awful, but being so close to the stage and the excitement at the end made me completely satisfied. I think live houses work too.

Yurippe said she had a lot of fun doing in-store events with Mochi. Somehow, over the past few years—or maybe just recently—it feels like the distance between Mochi and Yurippe has suddenly gotten much smaller. Apparently they practice together until after midnight every day, and she said she tried to send Furui a photo of the okonomiyaki, but Mochi stopped her.

What was Nana-sama like while they were talking about all that…?

How was Yurippe’s waistline?

>697 On the second floor, there was a woman standing against the wall at the far right, I think. On the left, there was one old guy standing there swinging his arms around. I wanted to see Yurippe from closer up… and the second floor had no energy, so nobody sang during the team split.

>704 What was Yurippe wearing today? Please tell me.

>705 It wasn’t just Mochi—he said he and the staff stopped her together. Was it just me, or was Nana-sama left out in the cold during the talk? Didn’t Yurippe fail to throw the conversation to her even once? She kept directing it toward the old guys.

>706 She was left out. It was mostly three-way talks between Furui, Mochi, and Nakamura Yuri.

Bust-waist-butt

>674 Wasn’t Yurippe wearing pants?

>690 It went something like this. After the Kawasaki event, a photo was sent to Furui saying, “I’m going to eat yakiniku now.” It was around 6:30, just when he was starting to get hungry, so he seemed jealous. Yurippe: “I was in the mood to eat meat for the first time in ages. I wanted to eat something greasy.” Nana: “I don’t eat meat. I eat fish. I’ll join when it’s fish.” Yurippe: “We’ve gotten off track. It’s not the yakiniku song.”

>709 >713 Her cleavage was completely visible.

Someone tell me what Yurippe was wearing today.

Anyone waiting outside for them to leave?

Mochi was so bad at throwing the picks that they didn’t even reach the audience at first. Yurippe’s throwing motion was totally girly and ridiculously cuteｗ

The outfit, huh… It was kind of a “Let’s match with sparkly hats” vibe.

Standing is rough for Gane otaku. Think about the age range.

Mochi and Yurippe were wearing matching pink outfits.

>717 AZUKI-san would probably hate that, so please don’tｗ

>673 Please tell me what Yurippe was wearing today.

>722 Why? Wasn’t she friendly in the past?

A girl on the first floor ran out of energy and crouched down halfway through.

By the way, the wedding favors from the Hayashiya Paper couple were toilet paper.

For a woman, standing the whole time × Kurose’s drums × stress from the people around you × four hours would honestly be pretty brutal.

Yurippe was wearing an all-black outfit with pants. Her hair was down, in a style similar to Nana-san’s. People have been standing since before entry, so of course some would start feeling sick. They should’ve done it like the Pan Factory live, with groups meeting at specific times by queue number.

>695 You’re filling in the blanks in your head.

>674 This post saying someone saw panties is driving me crazy. Wasn’t Yurippe wearing pants today?

With a band setup at a live house, it’s hard to really enjoy Yurippe’s singing voice. I was listening from the back, far from the speakers, but the parts where she sang loudly sounded sharp, almost distorted, and the low parts of the A and B melodies were almost drowned out by the instruments, making them hard to hear… The songs I’d been looking forward to left me with mixed feelings of disappointment. Also, on one of the two-day Osaka and Tokyo shows, apparently they’re planning a “Hitoshi & Oyuri” corner (an acoustic performance like the ones at the in-store events).

When are they going to announce the marriage?

>728 Was she wearing pants from the beginning all the way through the end of the encore?

I got a stomachache while I was lining up too… As for the second-floor reserved seats, there was absolutely no point in lining up. Man, next year is apparently the tenth anniversary, and I’ll have been a fan for ten years too. GARNET has been about half my life.

>725 That’s pretty normal〜 There’s a good chance I’d end up like that too( ；∀；)

The person who made the Lock On outfit is a legend.

Overall, the only thing that stood out about this live was how cheap it felt. The setup with strings and sax like last time would’ve been fine, but with this bare-bones setup plus a sequencer, Kurose’s drums were way too loud. They did nothing but get in the way of the vocals.

As expected, considering the fanbase, an all-standing show doesn’t seem suitable for GARNET.

If I collapsed in the front row, would Yurippe take care of me?

>738 Was Yurippe wearing pants from the beginning through the end of the encore today?

Yurippe really did dogezaｗｗ

I wish they’d just get married already. Nana-sama would probably get mad, thoughｗ

>739 They’ll tell you, “That’s gross〜.” >737 Selling a plastic bottle for 500 yen is awful. At 6,000 yen for that set, they must be making a huge profit.

42 years old, 182 cm tall. Sorry to everyone behind me. I’m exhausted. A hall really is better.

>744 Identified.

I think the drums after the ballads should be cut.

But even at a hall, you hardly ever get a chance to sit, right? Maybe during the encore?

Hint: The waiting time.

I want to avoid ending up unable to see the stage at all. Did anyone today fail to see the stage because they were short or because of the height difference with the person in front?

Because you can sit whenever you want, and it isn’t crowded.

At places like the International Forum, they look like nothing but dots.

Was Yurippe wearing pants from the beginning through the end of the encore today?

Being shoved in and forced to stand around waiting before the doors open versus being able to wait however you want— the level of exhaustion is completely different. We’re not young anymore.

A group that can’t sell…

>711 She hardly got any conversation directed at her. Why? >714 The fan-club newsletter said she was going to eat botan nabe (wild-boar hot pot), but it looks like Nana has turned vegetarian.

Write on the questionnaire that Kurose’s drums were too loud!

>708 >The old guy standing on the left was swinging his arms around. If the arm he was swinging in the L seats on the second floor was his left hand, that was probably me… sorry. And don’t call me an old guyｗｗｗｗｗｗ I’m still in my twentiesｗｗW

That’s normal for a professional live show, isn’t it? What, should they just play backing tracks?

Once you know how close the stage is at a live house, Tokyo International Forum starts to feel a little underwhelming despite having seats, because it’s too huge. JCB Hall was good in that regard—the capacity is large, but the stage is fairly close from every seat.

>757 Was Yurippe wearing pants from the beginning through the end of the encore today?

Do they hand out glow sticks at the entrance?

With reserved seats, you can take a dump whenever you want. With an all-standing show, there’s the stress of not being able to easily go to the bathroom, or even get back to your spot afterward. At halls, the floor is usually sloped, so it’s easier to see and less stressful.

The drums were nice this time. Okamocchi really is a huge soccer fan—so it’s a back four after all? I can’t believe there was soccer talk in the pamphlet. He must really love it. Arsenal or Barça, maybe.

While Yurippe and Mochi are working hard on promotions, Nana spends all her time traveling, and the old guy already has a wife, so I don’t see anything wrong with Yurippe and Mochi becoming a flirty pair. They’re together practically from morning till night, after all…

>755 Maybe it’s about where they’re positioned? Whether Furui-san or Nana-san gets the conversation, it tends to fall flat, but with Mochi between Furui-san and Nana, he can probably keep things going. Also, since she often goes around with Mochi for promotions, maybe she’s gotten into the habit of looking that way.

>757 No idea, but I was in front of the handrailｗ

I think we’ll get to hear the Hitoshi-and-Yuri version of “Futari no Rocket” at either Hatch or Tokyo. They rehearsed it in Kawasaki but didn’t perform it at the actual show.

Anyone who bought the pamphlet, tell me what’s inside.

>761 The only thing they hand out at the entrance is a drink exchange ticket. There are no glow sticks. By the way, the lockers were practically empty.

Maybe Yurippe’s pissed that AZUKI doesn’t go around the country doing shows? Like, “Why am I the only one who has to deal with creepy otaku?”—all sparkly and stuff. And then the little middle-finger gestures continued.

Two days at JCB is better than one show at the International Forum. From the performers’ side, though, they probably want to say, “We’re gradually moving to bigger venues!”

Was Yurippe wearing pants from the beginning through the end of the encore today?

Yurippe was obviously acting weird. She kept going “old guy → Mochi” over and over, skipping Nana-sama, and Mochi would read the room and pass the conversation to Nana-sama. If the audience hadn’t asked, “What about Nana-sama?” she probably wouldn’t have spoken even once. Last year they were still talking about going to a deserted island together and stuff. Are they actually on bad terms now?

It’s the first time they haven’t performed “Seichi.”

>769 Thanks. So glow sticks are banned at this live?

>758 That’s way too extreme. A professional live show isn’t just about blasting away at full volume. Personally, I prefer this live because the stage was closer.

Nana-sama, poor thing. Furui-san is taking over Nana-sama’s rhythm.

>766 99.9% meorz

I really feel sorry for Nana-sama. As a Nana-sama fan, hearing this stuff is painful.

Was Yurippe wearing pants from the beginning through the end of the encore today? Ahhh, it’s driving me crazy. Someone, please tell me.

If Yurippe got pregnant and took time off, who would handle vocals in the meantime?

It’ll stand out, so I’m bringing a glow stick.

Who else could it be besides the one and only Okamoto of the world?

The first song—Furui-san’s first organ solo—the sound didn’t come through…

>779 I think she would’ve preferred not having to do MC if she could avoid it… You could tell from how she only got her microphone ready after someone directed the conversation to her every time. Mentally, I think she was hoping to be skipped.

It was my first time sitting in a second-floor section at a live house. It was a little far from the stage and the crowd energy was weak, but the view was clear and I could sit the whole time, so it was comfortable. Standing is rough for me in my late thirties. I had errands and arrived right at 6 p.m., but I was surprised there were still tons of people outside. Apparently entry took quite a while.

>782 It isn’t very dark, so it won’t stand out much.

Please stop having the members fight and stuff. Everyone should just do promotions togetherｗ Mochi and Yuri went to Akita.

>786 The doors opened at 6:07, though.

At this point, the only option is a second in-group unit with Furui-san and Nana-san. Call it “Gane☆Raji.”

Blitz is always slow, or rather, it takes forever. Can’t they do something about that calling system? Also, today reminded me of Yasuyuki Okamura’s final tour, and I ended up crying.

Maybe Yurippe has started finding AZUKI annoying because she’s been touring around, having fun interacting with the audience and Mochi, while AZUKI hardly talks? She sounded genuinely happy when she said she enjoyed the in-store events.

>786 Was Yurippe wearing pants from the beginning through the end of the encore today? A gentleman in his late thirties.

>786 The event operation was kind of crap.

How much was that sparkly hat—the kind you could never wear out on the street?

Yurippe herself said the new unit was called “Hitoshi & Yuri.” I wanted to shout “Le Couple” right there, but I held back.

>792 Nana-san will talk if you direct the conversation to her, and people like her responses. What bothers me is Yurippe’s scary face when Nana-san is talking.

I don’t know if the person in front of me had no sense of rhythm, but their clapping was wildly off-beat. It distracted me and ruined things at times…(´・ω・｀) Overall, though, I think I had fun.

There are people who just clap their hands, completely ignoring the rhythm.

AZUKI Nana can’t talk very much, but her real name, Rie Sugaya, is…

They’re usually together even when leaving, but today they went out separately.

>795 Mochi looked so terrible in that hat, I laughedｗ Seriously, the only men who could pull that thing off are probably Hiromi Go and MC Hammer. Sorry, those are old references.

The sight of Nana-sama sitting there alone while the other three chatted away…

During today’s live, Nana-san played calmly without even sending Yurippe the occasional glance like she usually does. It made me feel like there was some distance between Nana-san and Yurippe.

>797 >What bothers me is Yurippe’s scary face when Nana-san is talking. ↑Seriously? I was at the very back, so I couldn’t see her expression… As a fan, I really hope they’ll get along.

The way Nana-sama was ignored today was painful to watch. Maybe it’s just now—or just today—but Yurippe is clearly in a pretty bad mood toward Nana-sama.

Was Yurippe wearing pants from the beginning through the end of the encore? Someone answer me. I’m too curious to sleep.

Yurippe wore pants from beginning to end. Her neckline was completely closed from beginning to end too. There was no erotic element whatsoever.

Yurippe once said she never gets angry when someone asked what makes her angry. It was probably just one of those days.

It’s scary to think that poems dedicated to Yurippe might start appearing soon.

Everyone keeps talking about sense of rhythm and clapping being out of sync, but sing along to “Doing all right” properly. Hardly anyone around me was singing, and it felt lonely.

Today Yurippe was wearing s— Oops, someone’s here.

They’re just shy people, so it can’t be helped.

>811 The AZUKI team, right? You couldn’t hear them at all. The Furui team won hands down.

A song about a woman whose beloved man (Mochi) was stolen by her best friend (Yuri), leaving her heartbroken. The tune was dark too, but when recording the vocals, Yuri somehow turned it into an upbeat song.

Looks like Kurose’s soundproof wall wasn’t there today.

Isn’t that part of the song hard to sing loudly? Even someone with a big voice can’t really bellow itｗ

>809 Seriously? He’s practically a Buddha. Anyway, don’t forget that there are lots of Nana fans among Gane otaku.

It’s my fault that AZUKI and Yurippe ended up like this. Sorry, everyone.

>815 At least make it an old guyｗ I can’t picture it otherwiseｗ

You’re all actually longtime fans＾＾

Nana-sama only talked about not eating yakiniku and being a fish person, plus teasing Furui-san during the best-tour discussion… We should have Nana do one song as a singer-songwriter! But she’d absolutely hate it… I really want her to do something.

>819 Okamocchi, make Yurippe happy（｀・ω・´）

When the audience heckled Mochi to take his clothes off, Yurippe was laughing incredibly hard for some reason. Does she know something about what Mochi looks like naked?

>823 If the woman earns more, the relationship gets awkward and falls apart, right＾＾

>822 The fish-person/not-eating-yakiniku thing was a question from the audience. The tour talent-show question came from Mochi. Yurippe’s only contribution was probably the tip about the sing-along.

>824 Clapping and laughing at audience heckles is one of Yurippe’s usual reactions.

Actually, Yurippe was on her period today, so she was irritated（´・ω・｀）

>814 I’m on the Furui team too. It was seriously dead. I mean, they did this at the event, didn’t they? With Yurippe as the vocalist, the girls should’ve tried harder. Why couldn’t anyone even make a sound…

Yurippe is a tampon girl. She has a light flow.

There was a girl shouting “Marry me!” at Okamocchiｗｗｗｗ

The names are the problem. From now on, let’s call them Team Furui and Team Okamoto.

Yurippe doing dogeza was really something. I bet the members and fans froze for a second. She properly knelt on the floor to do it, right? The staff or some company bigwig might’ve said something to her afterward. It depends on the circumstances, but maybe she was just trying to make a joke.

>818 That’s exactly right. Haven’t Yurippe and the staff both been getting something seriously wrong lately?

>822 If Nana played piano and Yurippe sang, forming a Yuri & Nana unit, I think Nana would be happy.

I feel like the dogeza was just Yurippe imitating the MC’s performance from the fan event.

>835 Do it for Nana-sama, and for Nana-sama’s fans too. I’m already full up on Yurippe-and-Mochi.

>829 Either a fan-club member used a pair ticket to bring a boyfriend or girlfriend who wasn’t a Gane fan, or the Nana fans on Nana’s side were too upset about the Nana-being-ignored incident to sing. Either way, the lack of energy from Team Nana really stood out.

She talked to the old guys, talked to Mochi, and then tried to start singing just like that. Audience: “What about Nana-san?” Yurippe: “(turning to Nana-san reluctantly)… Huh?” That’s awfulｗ Did Nana-san do something bad?ｗ

The Yuri-and-Nana pairing isn’t happening. Yurippe relies heavily on Mochi during MCs. She relies on him quite a bit at in-store events too. Maybe she used to be supported by Nana, but Mochi’s presence has gotten much bigger now. You can tell if you’ve been watching all along.

>835 I really want Nana-sama to do it. Anyone going to the next live, please beg Nana-sama to do it. I’ll try asking her near the stage or on the way out at Akasaka too.

>840 That still doesn’t mean she’d completely ignore Nana-san. Was I the only one who felt an obvious dislike from Yurippe toward Nana?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7wb2lW1u2Y Furui-san, the matchmaker, visits the Okamoto couple’s home.

>842 You’re the only one. Would a normal person really infer that much from a few seconds of crossed wires?

I think fights are unavoidable, but I hope they don’t keep dragging it out.

>844 That’s what I thought from their expressions. For the record, I was watching from around the third row.

Yurippe said on the radio that all the members are professionals, so they don’t interfere in one another’s work or anything like that. But that’s exactly what causes things to become stale. People grow and change when others push back on them. Though I guess their pride makes them hate being challenged.

>846 At most, it was probably just nerves or something. No matter what row you were in or how clearly you could see her expression.

Fights between women are seriously troublesome. But Nana-sama’s thought process is different from normal people’s, so she’ll probably be fine. Maybe we’re overthinking it. The event was good, after all.

Yurippe’s hysterics have a power beyond imagination. Kurose doesn’t even compare. And he’s salaried, yet he keeps getting made to work on his days off.

I went to the Yokohama live. I was in the second-floor seats, but toward the front in the middle, so I could see well. The first floor was really energetic, but the second floor wasn’t quite as lively… Not many people were standing either. Most people around me were just clapping, so I held back too… Nana-sama really was ignored a lot. Furui-san ended up being the sacrifice. The sound during the first song was buzzing and hurt my ears… I bought only the pamphlet as a souvenir and went home.

>846 Got it. Yurippe’s makeup was scary.

It’s because Nana-sama doesn’t cooperate with the events and stuff. This was payback for that.

Female comedy duos have always split up when one of them gets married.

It’s probably something like Nana-san being late to rehearsal and Yurippe getting a little pissed. I hope they direct plenty of conversation to Nana-san at Akasaka too… You’re all going, obviously, right?

It’s all Kurose’s fault. The bastard drums with a face like he’s about to ejaculate…

>849 Did Nana even come to the event?

Maybe they should adjust things toward the three of them loving each other. Then they’d have to consider Furui-san too—Piro Pikkin, a gofer with the role of middle management.

Everything Yurippe says is also full of hints about her relationship with Mochi. Like eating yakiniku together, or the two of them rehearsing alone late into the night after the four-person rehearsal ends…

>845 There’s a world of difference between a group with one woman and a group with two or more women. Once there are multiple women, there will always be conflict and fights. Nana-sama, being the oldest, probably gives in every time.

>859 The yakiniku and the rehearsals both included staff, so what’s the problemｗ

Yuri discovers “Rehearsal for Two”—lyrics by AZUKI Nana—and explodes in anger.

She probably wrote “Hello Sadness” after watching the two of them rehearse.

Supplement to the fan-club event report. Anyone going to lives in other places, please report Nana-sama info. I’ll report again at Akasaka. I have work tomorrow, so I’m going to bed.

(´・ω・`)「Everyone keeps saying Nana-sama is so pitiful…！」 (´・ω・`)「The truly pitiful one is me, being forced to shake hands with creepy otaku.」

When a woman in the audience called out “What about Nana-san?” during the yakiniku talk, my heart skipped a beat.

Yurippe, please(-人-) I don’t know what happened, and AZUKI-san is probably at fault, but don’t be coldｗ I like Nana. I don’t want to start hating Yurippe either. I’ll be nicer to my coworkers at work tomorrow too. ( ;ω;)

>866 Nana-sama also gave a very firm answer: “I don’t eat meat.”

>828 No way. The members and staff should all know Yurippe’s “girl week.”

>865 Yurippe seems like she’d think that way, which is scary. Don’t know if she really thinks about shaking hands with creepy otaku or not, though. Hope the bad atmosphere was just today. If the Yuri/Nana relationship gets twisted, disbanding isn’t impossible. Hope the staff arrange enough work so Nana-sama doesn’t get fed up…

At this point I’ll have to fly to Fukuoka this weekend. Luckily there still seem to be tickets left.

>833 It wasn’t a deep bow; more like “Aaaah, I screwed up!” She quickly dropped into proper seiza and lightly bobbed her head. It only lasted 2–3 seconds, so it was cute. Like a clumsy girl panicking and going “Sorry! Sorry!”

Maybe Nana not attending events is just a GIZA strategy to increase her rarity. In the past Yurippe and Nana were Gane’s female frontwomen, going around radio and other appearances.

You guys are overthinking it, aren’t you? Maybe it just happened to come off that way by chance.

If rehearsal ends at midnight, the two-person rehearsal ends around 1:05?

What’s with the five minutesｗ And after that, there’s another rehearsal…(ry

Given the brutal schedule, Yurippe is probably genuinely exhausted, so maybe she sees Mochi/old guy as comrades working hard together, while Nana is…

>869 Live schedules are decided well in advance, so can she predict that accurately? Well, she could use the pill to shift it.

(´・ω・`)「While I was living a back-and-forth work/home life, AZUKI was going back and forth around the world.」 (´・ω・`)「While I was living a life of going home and just sleeping, AZUKI was getting drunk at home.」

I’m hoping they’ll spread the conversation around evenly in Osaka（・∀・）

>879 Got it, Yurippe. Hit me instead!

This thread is hilariousｗ

Looks like Yurippe and Nana-san were in the same taxi when they left.

Oh! Then tonight, just the two of them…

Is that for sure?

Yuri has turned into yuri.

>883 So what happened to the Lancia story, then?

The two men were in the same taxi ← confirmed As for the women, someone was confirmed to be next to Yurippe ← but it hasn’t been confirmed that it was Nana-san Apparently no one else who looked like Nana-san showed up, either. Info from the people who waited for them to come out.

>887 One vote for it being a joke. >871 They’re putting on an act for that very purpose, surely. Once Fukuoka fills up, they’ll come out holding hands.

Who would drive their own car all the way from Kansai to Yokohama just for one liveｗ That alone is hard laborｗ

Lyrically, GARNET CROW stands out even within GIZA. I’m the same way, but if AZUKI-san were gone, I’d stop being a fan.

Come to think of it, when they started talking about doing a live in Yokohama, that was the one time Yurippe tossed the conversation to Nana-san. Nana-san arrives in Yokohama early → plays around all over Yokohama → is late for the live rehearsal. Yuri asks Nana-san, “(Then you must be pretty familiar with Yokohama by now,) what comes to mind when you hear Yokohama?” …I’m overthinking itｗ Time to sleep.

>869 I guess they keep track because it affects her physical condition and all. Is it really like that?

Yurippe and Nana-sama, make up(´;ω;`) Yurippe didn’t call on Nana-sama much in Nagoya either, so it had me a little worried… But Nana-sama made some remarks that sounded a little jealous of Mochi, so Nana-sama really loves Yurippe, huh.

What do you mean, a fightｗｗｗｗ Nana-san’s curt replies are normal for herｗｗｗｗ

>895 Nana-sama isn’t usually curt. The problem was Yurippe ignoring her yesterday.

A taxi driver’s testimony: The shorter one didn’t say a single word to the taller one, and was happily texting.

AZUKI’s Lancia is in the parking lot at Jūban, though. I wonder if she managed to make up with Yurippe?

Someone apparently couldn’t fill out the survey because they didn’t have anything to write with. GIZA quality.

>876 Let’s try listening to the album from the beginning.

Mochi was crying at the fan-club event, so something must have happened. Just as I thought. Maybe Nana-sama finally said she was leaving the group.

We’ve made it look like the whole Yurippe→Nana-san relationship is bad, but let’s also consider the possibility that grown-up Yurippe deliberately ignored Nana as a desperate measure to keep the fans from seeing her in a bad mood after coming to Kanto. The live was fun, but that MC is hitting like a body blow…

AZUKI-san’s son will be starting elementary school next year, so she’s probably busy. She wants to retreat entirely behind the scenes, but… So maybe she’s checking the fans’ reaction to see whether the Mochi-and-Yuri duo can work.

(After the live + after the long weekend)… My work motivation is so low~(´･ω･`)

AZUKI-san’s daughters are 21 and 19, aren’t they?

When did the relationship between Yuri and Nana start going bad? Did they seem close at last summer’s live?

(´・ω・｀)When I was appearing on the radio, AZUKI was traveling around the world. So unfair, huh~ (●ω●)So unfair, huh~ （；^ω^）Well, that’s okay, I guess.

Isn’t the song that goes “ぶっとんじゃって〜♪” kind of similar to “Sky-Colored Cat”?

“Sky-Colored Cat” is a god-tier song. It’s not something you can compare with “Hallelujah.”

I wonder how many times “SPIRAL” was replayed.

Yurippe used to be afraid of men, but by hanging out with Mochi she learned the good points of men. Nana is genuinely a lesbian, so she still asks Yurippe for a physical relationship. For Yurippe, who has finally grown into a proper adult woman, that’s a nuisance.

When Yurippe and Nana-san appeared wearing sparkly hats, I thought, yeah, they really are beauties, but Osaaan in the same hat looked like nothing but an ordinary old guy (the sort you normally see at a baseball stadium).ｗｗ Yurippe did at least tell him it looked good on him, though.

What is the basis for saying Nana-san is a lesbian…?

I feel like Yurippe and Nana-san suit having a relationship with a little distance between them better. The appeal is that their two worlds overlap despite that. Well, I’d be happy if they were lesbians too, though. But I’m really worried about this whole thing since I couldn’t watch the live. Was Nana-san really that isolated? I feel like I’m going to cry…orz

It’s creepy when morons call women lesbians just because they’re close.

>909 Drop dead, scum.

I guess it really feels like they’ve taken the first step toward the finish line of disbanding. The best-of marks a stopping point, huh.

Even if they disband and Yurippe goes solo, I wonder if I’d still spend as much money buying CDs and stuff as I do now. I think I came to love them this much because they’re GARNET CROW with all four members.

Is a singer’s lifespan only around ten years?

>919 A lot of artists start declining after the ten-year mark. Like globe…

Stop talking about disbanding. That’s seriously bad luck.

I think if AZUKI-san touches Mr. Mustard, that’ll be the signal. After that, it’ll be Mochi and Yuri carrying on as a duo, I guess. AZUKI-san will still write the lyrics, though.

Please don’t talk about disbanding. Wouldn’t that take all the fun out of everything?

>901 I wasn’t crying.

Yurippe looked like this yesterday. http://blog-imgs-21.fc2.com/m/o/k/mokkomin/IMG_2564.jpg http://blog-imgs-21.fc2.com/m/o/k/mokkomin/IMG_2566.jpg http://blog-imgs-21.fc2.com/m/o/k/mokkomin/IMG_2560.jpg http://blog-imgs-21.fc2.com/m/o/k/mokkomin/IMG_2740.jpg http://15.dtiblog.com/j/jonico/file/IMG_0586.jpg http://kanazawa.cool.ne.jp/one_two/Napu/B0000021.JPG http://www.obutu.net/obutu/seiri/file/data/sattyan01.jpg http://www.obutu.net/obutu/seiri/file/data/sattyan15.jpg http://www.obutu.net/obutu/seiri/file/data/sattyan.jpg http://www.obutu.net/obutu/seiri/file/data/sattyan2.jpg http://www.obutu.net/obutu/seiri/file/data/sattyan451.jpg http://www.obutu.net/obutu/seiri/file/data/sattyan14.jpg http://www.obutu.net/obutu/seiri/file/data/sattyan450.jpg

There’s going to be a live screen this year, right?

Nope.

>918 I’m not going to buy them just for Yurippe like on Hit Paradeｗ It’s only GARNET CROW when all four of them are together.

The Nagoya live was crap, so I’m feeling kind of unsatisfied. I’m thinking of going to another one if I can still get tickets. How was Yokohama?

>929 You have to say what was crap about it, or there’s nothing to compare.

Now “One of My Dreams” has started sounding like Yuri and Nana’s requiem… “AZUKI-san, please do some promotional work too. The fans are waiting for AZUKI-san as well.” Nana: “…Got it.” …A few days later… Nana: “This is getting kind of burdensome, so I quit.” I’m seriously scared it’s going to turn out like that.

>931 There are plenty of people hidden away who could replace Okamocchi, but there’s no replacement for Nana-sama, right? Nana-sama is the only one who can write dark lyrics.

Even Yurippe’s “promotional work is super fun” comment feels like a dig at AZUKI-san. No matter how much they’re fans, having complete strangers introduce themselves and ask to shake hands can’t possibly be fun. If you did that day after day, you’d get stressed out and want to snap at people too.

I’ve detoxed and feel refreshed, so dark lyrics are impossible^^

I’m with the Fukuoka crowd, but… I’d finally relaxed because the typhoon veered away, and now the outlook is way too stormy in another sense…

I hope they can somehow get past the ten-year milestone.

>920 I don’t think GARNET CROW will have activity problems just because of a slump. In current-day Being, B’z is in a class of its own, and aside from Kuraki there isn’t even anyone who sells steadily.

>935 Found a fellow Fukuoka attendee. So you’re with the Fukuoka crowd too. I was relieved when the typhoon went away, but now I think about them being on bad terms…

I want them to sing “picture of world” at a live someday.

There’s no end to digging too deep and making up your own theories. Even if they did have a fight, they’re not teenagers, so they wouldn’t do something like disband over a personal falling-out. Nana-san knows perfectly well that if she leaves, GARNET CROW would have no choice but to disband.

>924 When Yurippe said, “We’ll keep making GARNET CROW music from now on,” Mochi suddenly covered his face with his hands. He kept his head down like that for a while, then looked up with bloodshot eyes, and tears came out. Then he covered his face again and kept his head down for a while. Also, it sounds like MFM won’t cease publication but will be issued as a paid magazine. The comment from Mochi on the last page of the MFM special issue—“Thank you very much for all these long years”—makes it sound like it’s all over. (I don’t have it on hand right now, so I might not have it exactly right.)

Someday, time will take all the precious things away from everyone.

>941 The Osaka venue?

(T_T) Mochi: “I’ll work hard enough for AZUKI-san too! You two, please don’t fight!”

>943 Hitomi.

Does Namba Hatch have a screen?

Nope.

Gane fans are all such negative people. We’ll never know the truth anyway, so there’s no need to go out of your way to write things that make people looking forward to the live anxious. Today’s live was really fun too, and I think everyone going to the upcoming lives should just look forward to them without worrying about unnecessary stuff. The days you spend looking forward to a live are also precious time connected to GARNET, so it’d be such a waste to stain that precious time with anxiety. Worrying is pointless, pointless! Even my domestically made Dio-kun says so. >924 The comments from Nana and Mochi in the MFM special were a message to MFM, which they’d been told was going to cease publication, weren’t they?

>948 You said a good thing. The live is a place to enjoy the music, after all.

GARNET CROW part.219 http://anchorage.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/musicjg/1255409651/1-100

If we reach 1000, Gane will live forever.

>948 There’s a 2ch rule that the more loudly you make a fuss about something, the less likely it is to happen. Go ask around on News Flash+ or something. GARNET CROW has been rumored to disband every year too, and it’s been ten years already.

Even ZARD, whose vocalist passed away, is still active despite people saying they’d stop activities.

This time, disbanding may really be unavoidable.

When there are disbanding rumors, tour tickets and merchandise sell better. This is called the Oasis business model.

>955 I laughedｗ Are there GIZA people mixed in among the ones going “Disband, disband” hereｗｗ? Well, not knowing when it’ll end is the same for music, romance, and life. So let’s enjoy the present—that was originally the AZUKI faith’s teaching, wasn’t itｗ

>955 Oh, I see. Could you tell me where the term “Oasis business model” came from, too?

Like a going-out-of-business sale?

At Paspara this New Year’s, Yurippe and Nana-san had a little quarrel of sorts. That really shocked me.

Finally got my mfm. Yurippe’s comment feels pretty loaded. By the way, Yurippe’s favorite event at sports day is tossing balls into a basketｗ

>957 Noel and Liam’s Oasis. Basically, they were a famous band that kept going for 20 years while constantly being rumored to disband because the brothers were fighting. It’s less like a going-out-of-business sale and more like a limited-edition sales tactic—the psychology of “if I miss this, I’ll never get [whatever] again.” They also released a ton of best-of CDs, by the way.

>778 From far away, he just looked like a hyper thirty-something uncle… But being able to get that excited on the second floor is something I’d like to learn from.

Nana-sama says she doesn’t eat meat, but she eats cock with her lower mouth, right（´・ω・｀）

>961 I see. Thanks a lot.

Got MFM, but with B’z on the cover it was pretty embarrassing. I took two of the three. I stashed the remaining one behind the back cover in the junk.

>965 Does this month’s issue have GARNET in it?

The usual serialization and the LIVE PHOTO CORNER.

The setlist hasn’t changed, right? Aside from Yurippe’s hairstyle. What even is a “concept tour” anyway?

>968 Concept → getting closer to the fans, I guess. This time they’re enjoying being heckled by the fans.

ω

I wanna heckle Yurippe~!

Then do it.

There are surprisingly lots of couples at GARNET CROW lives. I’m jealous. I wanna go to a GARNET live with my girlfriend~

This time Okamocchi is using a wireless guitar setup for the first time in ages. He comes to the front during his solo. I think the last time he used wireless was the first live.

>973 I went to a GARNET CROW live for the first time yesterday, and I was surprised by the proportion of women too. The coworker who went with me even said it might be about half and half.

Yurippe uses wireless too, doesn’t she?

Yurippe too~

>959 It wasn’t a fight. She was just sulking.

Yurippe’s bra definitely has underwire. Good thing her specialty event at the nighttime sports festival is tossing balls into a basket.

Don’t disband, dammit.

To draw such a broad range of ages and both men and women, the Conan effect really must be huge in all sorts of ways.

It’s been one month and six days since I paid the fan-club fee, and my membership card still hasn’t arrived. About how many days did it take for everyone else’s membership cards to arrive after you paid?

My friend from the Yokohama crowd only wrote “The live was fun!” in their mixi diary, so reading this made me nervous＠Fukuoka crowd. It’ll be my first live, too, so even more so. If there’s a flustered girl before the doors open, please watch over her warmlyｗ

I went to my third live yesterday, and it felt like the shortest one. I think you should just enjoy it without overthinking things. I got Mochi’s pick, so I’m totally satisfied.

Nice pick.

Don’t need Mochi.

Need Mochi.

Rather than ignoring her, the old guy and Mochi have actively joined new projects over the past few years and broadened their range of talents, while AZUKI has at most lent her name to the “AZUKI group.” So if they have to decide who to call on, naturally the choices end up being the old guy or Mochi. AZUKI should play bass or something too.

Nana-san is better on flute~

If Nana played bass or drums, Gane would’ve become even more popular.

>990 What is this, Mami Miyoshiｗｗ

>983 Bump.

If Mochi committed seppuku, everything would be settled nicely.

Drop dead.

Nana is good at shakuhachi.

>978 No, that was exactly a women’s fight.

>959 What did it actually look like when you say it was like a fight? I’m in a region where I can’t hear it, so I don’t know. Tell me.

Yurippe: “How dare you turn my ‘In the Blue Forest’ into nothing but round and round and yeahyeahyeahyeah and lalalala!!!”

>997 Huh, isn’t that already gone from NicoNico?

If this is 1000, Nana-sama and Yurippe make up.
