I can't tell which one is the main thread, so please paste the links properly!! And the individual threads too.

>7 I can't tell which one is the main thread at all. Do the proper redirect a thousand times.

Yurippe and Mochi seem to be having a rough time lately. Hang in there!!

>8-9 Wrong thread.

I want to celebrate with Yurippe, >1's hard work, and the Stablo update after a month and ten days.

Nora's lyrics look like AZUKI Nana wrote them about herself.

AZUKI Nana: “No. I'm human.”

>14 True.

The Sapporo tickets arrived. Front row, number 3! I'm close to Yurippe! This is the only time I feel glad to live outside the big cities.

I want to see Yurippe, beautiful in her thirties.

The International Forum's seat width is one-third of Sapporo's, so even row 38 is effectively row 3.

If it's one-third, then it's effectively row 10, right? OTL

Don't sweat it lol

I'm going to the Osaka show. Are there still tickets? Even if they're sold out online, could there still be some left at FamilyMart?

Electronic Ticket Pia still has seats available.

There are plenty of seats left! I was having lunch at a restaurant at noon and 花は咲いて〜♪ by Gane started playing. A group of three college girls said the song was dark, had a gross singing style, and sounded like a funeral song. I couldn't argue because they were right lol

The Conan opening song is here.

The best-of commercial is here.

I want to marry Yuri-san and become a househusband.

I took a quick look at the Conan live-commentary channel, and it's awful... (´･ω･`) Those people don't understand Gane Crow's appeal at all. http://live23.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/liventv/1266650718/

>27 Everyone has different tastes. No need to go out of your way to post that.

GARNET CROW is the kind of group you grow into liking later.

I want to marry Yuri-san and have three kids.

>27 Live commentary is like that for any singer or song, isn't it? lol No matter what it is, it's always “Shitty song ｷﾀ━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━ !!!” lol

I don't want people who watch a gross anime like Conan to become fans.

Yurippe's unpleasant voice is magnificent.

I want to sing Go For It with Yuri-san.

>34 So you're supposed to read that as “I like it,” huh? lol

Who is to blame for Gane being underrated despite being so good-looking?

I hope there won't be any audience sing-alongs or dancing at this live show. I hope there won't be glow sticks either. I hope I can enjoy it at my own pace.

As expected, there are tons of tickets left for the Tokyo show. I was still able to get a first-floor seat lol If it obviously wasn't going to sell out, why did they go with such a huge venue? Were they trying to show off...?

Yurippe's voice isn't for everyone, and it's normal to initially think, “I can't listen to this.” But once you find even one song you like, you suddenly get addicted. I thought SKY was good, and ever since then I've started listening to every GARNET CROW song.

Speaking as a Yurippe fanatic, it's the singing voices other than Yurippe's that are weird.

>38 Watch from the second-floor seats.

If you think about it calmly, there are a lot of ugly people jealous of a beautiful vocalist, so it's only natural. Gane has two beautiful women besides the vocalist too, so of course they'll get criticized a lot.

>I was having lunch at a restaurant and 花は咲いて〜♪ by Gane came on. >A group of three college girls said this song was >dark, had a gross singing style, and was it a funeral song? >I couldn't argue because they were right lol Is that really how society sees them? Being a GARNET CROW fan is tough...

>44 Those three college girls really got it lol

Who cares what society thinks? Being a real Gane otaku means watching the Olympics while listening to Go For It.

Society × Ugly people's jealousy ○

>32 Saegusa's rap in “雲に乗って” was hugely popular.

Apparently today's evening edition of the Asahi Shimbun has an interview with Yurippe and Mochi in it.

>48 People were only laughing at it as a joke.

Since it's a best-of tour, I wish they'd stop making it all about the singles. Since it's a 10th-anniversary tour, I'd actually be fine with them not playing a single single. I want it to be the kind of live show that leaves behind anyone who can't keep up.

The third disc of the best-of album really feels like they went and collected nothing but songs gross otaku would like... If they could cut off all the ugly fans and move to Avex, I feel like they'd finally get on track.

>48 That sutra-chanting rap is the best in its own way lol

>40 Same here ( ´∀｀)人(´∀｀ ) For me, 僕だらけ未来 hit the bull's-eye.

Saegusa is Gane Crow's junior if you look at it in terms of their agency. ading is pretty damn weird even among the Being acts. The never-shows-her-face Komatsu. Aiuchi, whose normal speaking voice sounds like an anime character. db Saegusa. Gane Crow, the funeral band.

>52 Quite a few of the songs Yurippe has publicly said she likes are like that too. So Yurippe = gross otaku, is that okay?

>52 They're the songs that overlapped when each member picked ten songs they liked, plus the songs that are especially popular with the fans. They said so on the radio.

I want to have tea with Yuri-san.

>57 >The songs the members each like ← Yurippe's favorites 40..., Nana-san's 35..., and Osan gets the remaining 25..., right?

We love the song 「永久に葬れ」, so Gane Crow really is the funeral band after all.

Go For It　Yurippe Rainy Soul　Mochi 失われた物語　Mochi Nora　Osan

I want to sing A Crown with Yuri-san.

I want to get tangled up with Yurippe, gently and dangerously.

Yurippe ran away.

I want to quietly hug Yuri-san.

>49 It's true lol Couldn't they have done something about Mochi's face in that two-shot with Yurippe...?

What does “a setlist centered around singles” mean? Will there be a 10th-anniversary Yurippa in the live merch? What does Yurippe's “bring two friends with you” mean? What's actually on the Mini Cro CD? What is Yurippe's long-awaited ○○? All these mysteries should be cleared up around this time a week from now.

They say you get tired of a beautiful woman after three years (is that actually true, though?).

>66 You can totally tell how much retouching was done on the best-of photo book lol Come to think of it, they'll be on CDTV's Top 10 albums today.

I want to sniff-sniff Yuri-san's panties right after she takes them off.

Mochi's face while singing looks a little like a turtle laying eggs.

>49 I saw it, but it wasn't in the edition we get (the Osaka head-office edition). Can someone tell me which region's edition it was in?

Was it published because the Tokyo International Forum is nearby?

>73 You mean the Tokyo head-office edition?

Today's broadcast had me on pins and needles too. The CD announcement was super cute!

The organizer is the Asahi Shimbun, after all.

I got that wrong. The live show's organizer was TV Asahi.

5th place on JCD.

There's a concert at Yoyogi next time, but when I went there for the first time, I got off at the wrong station and had a hell of a time lol

I'm listening through the best-of album right now. What's everyone's favorite song on it?

夢みたあとで

Troublemaker

mysterious eyes

CDTV is in 6th place, as usual. >80 涙のイエスタデー

Timeless Sleep

I don't care about your My best scope or whatever, just stop it already. What a pain.

The intro to Stay sounds similar to the intro to Jackson 5's I'll be there.

Doing this on 2ch just gets you a “huh” kind of response, right? The people answering might be old dudes too lol If you want to know the popular songs, just use a voting site like this. http://www.rankingbook.com/category/music/garnet-crow/favorite/

I want to marry Yuri-san.

You have to shout it at the live venue lol I want to see the reaction lol

Got an email from Amazon about the bank transfer lol

>80 涙のイエスタデー

>80 晴れ時計

I love Timeless Sleep, but I don't like the version on the best-of because it's a re-recording. The original Timeless Sleep is better. Her voice is cute in it.

Isn't it remastered rather than re-recorded?

Remastering: Taking audio that was released in the past and smoothing it out with mechanical processing. In other words, all they did for this best-of was hire Ted Jensen. The members didn't do anything besides pick the songs. Retaking: Recording new vocals and so on.

Back after his third arrest: Yasuyuki Okamura, handsome!? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vs1zlzpWnJ8　 Yasuyuki Okamura rare audio live acoustic-singing collection (if he really could get with Ai Iijima, that might be a kind of happiness in its own way) http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm2768464

Timeless Sleep was re-recorded before this best-of, right? That version is on this best-of too. It really does lack any vocal stretch and sounds kind of hollow, so it's not great.

>103 Sorry, I didn't know that.

Wasn't that not a re-recording, but the Call Sky Mix?

You mean the one from the 5th-anniversary best-of?

I actually like the 「永眠」 version on the best-of better.

>101 ...“smoothing it out,” huh?

晴れ時計 actually gets pretty good reviews, you know. They should sing it more at their lives.

>110 Exactly. I love 晴れ時計, but they never play it. I really wish they'd do it at a live show.

Got row 14 on the first floor for Sapporo through Musing. It's my first time, so I have no idea whether that's good or bad...

Transfer complete lol. Getting it early is guaranteed!!

I always wonder, what are people who keep making these pointless “My Best” self-indulgent posts trying to do? Do they want people to give them their opinions?

It's a troll. Since the content is the same, changing IDs and copy-pasting it is basically the same as trolling the thread.

24th on the daily chart lol

(＾ω^)「You guys, buy more!」

I want to marry Yuri-san and have three kids.

You have to shout it at the live venue. I want to see the reaction.

Gane should copy AKB too. FC & Musing limited edition: includes one of 300 types of bromide photos of Yurippe or Nana. Includes a ticket to take part in a handshake event. Regular edition: Different bonuses at Tower, HMV, Shinseido, TSUTAYA, and the other CD shops.

Yuri-san is really cute in the Timeless Sleep music video. I want to hug her.

I want to sing Gane Crow at karaoke. Is there anything a guy can sing?

ミスアイ, 二人ロケット, ラストラブ, ラブセル

Her range is on the low side for a female vocalist, so you can probably sing most of them, right?

I think you can just sing them by lowering the key. I usually lower it by six or seven. I always use DAM, but DAM doesn't have many Gane songs...（´・ω・｀）

Warning about Gane songs: Don't sing them in front of other people. Year-end parties, New Year's parties, farewell parties—all strictly forbidden.

Actually, with Gane songs, raising the key by one or two instead of lowering it is just right, but watch out for songs like まぼろし and holy ground because their ranges are so wide. Either lower it and sing the A melody extremely low, or raise it and die at the biggest climax.

For songs like Okamocchi's 忘れ咲き that they sing at concerts, I think lowering the key by about six is right.

Do Gane songs really kill the mood?

>123 What's ラブセル?

http://www41.atwiki.jp/saikouon_dokoda/pages/175.html The old songs are listed here.

>122 きゃんでーぽっぷ ほうるでぃんぐゆうあんどすうぃんぎんぐ ごふぉあいっとぅ のんせんせ ゆめみたあとで 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　and so on

It's almost nine... I'm heading out for now lol

Hasn't スパイラル on this best-of changed quite a bit compared to the previous best-of? That said, it doesn't change the fact that Gane Crow is amazing. I want exams to end already so I can go to my first-ever live show!

Thanks, everyone. That was helpful.

>124 I don't think her voice is especially low. It's around average, or even on the high side. It only doesn't sound that way because of her vocal tone. For a guy to sing at that key is way too difficult. Though it depends on the song.

I'm a guy, but Gane songs are just right for me at the original key.

>137 Your voice must be really high. Impressive.

When I was a karaoke beginner, I could sing 夏の幻 just fine at the original key.

The people saying they can sing at the original key aren't actually singing an octave lower, are they? lol If a guy can really sing it, that's seriously impressive.

I can't sing the chorus at the original key.

GARNET CROW New SIngle 2010.08.18 ON SALE 「般若心経　-G STYLE MIX-」 Lyrics: Unknown lyricist Additional lyrics: AZUKI 七 Music: Yuri Nakamura Arrangement: Hirohito Furui Not yet~ I wonder what kind of sutra lyrics 夢・花火 had in it. It was supposed to be a sutra, but they changed it to Ti Amo, right?

Episode 6 was good too! Food poisoning lol GIZA is involved in the food business too, so they really have to be careful. If they get hit with a huge bill, things will be tight financially and it'll be over.

>142 That's blasphemous.

http://vsong.being.co.jp/special/garnet/bestepi.html Did you enter this?

Did Nagoya maybe sell out?

On February 11, on a T-FM program called Dear Friends, Yurippe apparently answered the question “What live show left the biggest impression on you?” by saying, “Ninnaji. Taking care of that stubborn old man was tough (laughs).” What does that mean? I'd like to know the details.

>148 Nagoya has always been weird, but is the ticket-sale method different or something? It's not even listed on Lawson Ticket or anything.

I checked and there are still tons of empty seats. And it's the smaller of the two halls, too. Somehow this is over lol

>149 I didn't hear that program, but from what I heard on another program about the song, I think the story was that someone at Ninnaji was surprised because the sound was louder than expected, and was worried that a stubborn old man living nearby might come over to complain. It wasn't a story about Yurippe having to deal with the stubborn old man herself.

Oh, I see. Thanks for answering. What was Yurippe wearing at the public broadcast in Fukuoka on the 17th? Was she wearing pants on the bottom?

By the way, apparently that stubborn old man is a Gane Crow fan now.

The ticket agencies still have Nagoya tickets. It's marked with a △, though. Why aren't Lawson Ticket or e+ showing up?

For some reason, Lawson Ticket and the other agencies only got a small number of GARNET CROW tickets for Nagoya.

Looks like I can buy one normally through Pia. I might be going to Nagoya on a business trip on 3/25, so if the National Forum show was good, I'll get a ticket.

I want to sing Love is a bird with Yuri-san.

I'm going to add “My best scope” to my NG filter(´ー｀)

>159 Same here lol

I want to sing 廻り道 with Yuri-san.

Does everyone set Gane songs as their cellphone ringtone and stuff? For the record, my alarm is 晴れ時計.

>162 I once used Power Pro's Cheer Song Edit Mode to make an original Gane Crow cheer song. When a certain player came up to bat in the game, ミスアイ would play from the stands as a brass-band version♪ (‥I had the sheet music in one hand and entered every note manually, one by one‥ It was way too much work, so I gave up after one song lol)

I want to sing Go For It with Yuri-san.

I want to marry Yuri-san.

No, I'm the one who's going to marry her.

Get married already and move to Tokyo.

I've never been to the Tokyo International Forum, but if I get off at Tokyo Station (or Yurakucho Station) around 4 on the day and just follow the flow of people, will I be okay?

>168 No, you won't be okay. Tokyo Station is insanely crowded. If you're not taking the Keiyo or Musashino Lines and have no idea where you're going, it's easier to go from Yurakucho.

I'm driving from Nagoya to the International Forum for the show.

>170 Thanks! Actually, I transferred at Tokyo Station for about two years when I was a student, so I feel like I vaguely know the way. (Though I haven't been there at all recently, so I'm not confident.)

>172 I made another empty post, orz If you understand the layout of Tokyo Station to some extent, just head toward the Keiyo Line platforms for now and you'll be fine.

The Tokyo live is this weekend already, huh? I'm pretty close to the very back, but I'm looking forward to it lol

There's a stage play in May, and I'm debating whether to apply. But the competition is fierce, so if I apply and get in, it'll be lucky! I'll apply with the mindset that not getting in is the expected outcome.

Yuri-san, aren't you married already?

>Warning about Gane songs: >Don't sing them in front of other people. >Year-end parties, New Year's parties, farewell parties are strictly forbidden. I'd like to know the reason in detail. I'm curious.

22nd on the daily chart. GARNET CROW isn't selling very well~

What, are you scared?

>179 Looks like it's climbing, huh? It was only 25th at its lowest.

And on today's daily chart it's climbed to 17th.

>178 I guess they mean that Gane songs are kind of dark. You can totally sing songs like 忘れ咲き or 夢みた at karaoke. I sing 忘れ咲き three keys down and 夢みた four keys down. At around that level, anyone with a mixed voice good enough to sing L'Arc-en-Ciel can manage them.

If you can't sing it at the original key, you can't say you can sing it, you loser.

>175 I'm near the back too. Let's enjoy it together.

They're taking forever to announce the tour merch. Does this shitty company even have any motivation?

Is there merch this time?

Of course there is. It feels like Yurippe is working harder than the staff.

Sometimes I get so caught up in it that I want to hug Yuri-san.

>178 Most people don't know GARNET CROW, so I guess the point is that the room might go dead with reactions like “Western music? Who?”

>178 Are there any songs where the Gane Crow PV plays at karaoke? Please, no more Detective Conan anime playing in the background...(´Д｀)

So much radio stuff. Music-production groups featured in magazines: 「福岡モン」「おい街」「月刊くるめ」

If you round Nana's age, she's a 40-year-old old lady.

>194 Nana rounds to ten, doesn't she?

Nana-san seems pretty honest about her sex drive.

I want to shove my dick into Yurippe's pussy.

What cup size is Yurippe?

A

I want to lick Yuri-san's breasts.

It's my first live show this weekend, and I'm in the front row.

They're sagging already.

I want to shove a daikon into Yurippe's pussy.

If you look closely at the single jackets, you can vaguely tell around when Yurippe lost her virginity.

>205 Around when?

cried a little

>206 Seriously, it was 集メルヘヴン.

That took long enough.

This thread is gross lol

It's not usually like this（´・ω・`） Anyway, what cup size is Yurippe really?

It is always like this. Gross.

Yurippe feels incredibly good!

Obviously an A.

This is exactly how the Gane thread should be! Normal people, get out...

Yurippe couldn't hold back her sexual comments either and said them on the radio. Can't be helped. It's basically the same as erotic posts being approved now.

I want to sniff-sniff Yuri-san's panties right after she takes them off.

Probably an A after all. Though I feel like she might have a little more than that.

You've been fooled by メルヘヴっぺ. Go look at pages 6–7 of the fan club newsletter. Being an A is exactly why she's great.

My CD is arriving from Amazon tomorrow.

If you're fans, show some restraint. This isn't something you have to talk about here. Let's show some respect...

Yurippe: “Stay with me for the rest of my life♪”

I want to walk down the street holding Yuri-san's hand.

>218 She might barely make a B. Her underbust is probably a slim 65, so even if she's a B, the bust measurement would...

I don't want it to be anything but an A.

>225 With A70 the bust is 80, and with B65 the bust is 78. B is actually smaller.

Why have the recent posts been so gross?

Shukudai-kun was insanely funny lol DAIGO is going to be on this week's Pig Network too, so I'm looking forward to it!

>228 You really keep broadcasting such a boring show... Ozura had such a chilly-looking face too.

“Bacteria Flaaash” sounds like a special move, doesn't it?

I want to sing A Crown with Yuri-san.

Mochi's voice on the live DVD is almost making me fall in love...

>233 They aren't going to postpone the release again, are they... Anyway, there really is a new single coming in April.

The long-awaited ○○ must mean the long-awaited new song. The Tokyo crowd wins big!!!

346 Name: Anonymous due to the author's circumstances [sage] Posted: 2010/02/23 (Tue) 08:02:29 ID:h/St/Nw40 Since nobody seemed to have posted this... The latest Conan movie info: advance tickets go on sale from 3/6, and Conan quiz booklets will be handed out at Toho-affiliated theaters nationwide. The Conan quiz has 50 questions, all multiple choice with four answers. Even if you can't get the booklet, it will apparently be distributed to cellphones, and included in the Conan & Kid comics released around then. Also, the theme song will apparently be by the person currently doing the opening, as everyone had been predicting. The song is scheduled for release on 4/14? (I think that's the same day the soundtrack CD for movie 14 goes on sale.) Great, it's confirmed now.

As the Dew has kind of a gross singing style.

The grossness is the good part. Once you get used to it, it actually feels good!

>239 Well, it's not really for kids.

Someone dies every time in Conan, so it's not for children.

I just watched a bunch of PVs. What's everyone's favorite? Mine is 晴れ時計. Also, why is the protagonist in only 夢のひとつ kind of like Nana-sama?

>243 Like she can do nothing but fall in love.

Hey! My Musing Nagoya package still hasn't arrived! Did anyone get theirs?

>243 Like she can do nothing but fall in love.

http://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=20100222-00000022-oric-ent You guys only like Gane for their bodies anyway, right? How many copies would you buy if they came with handshake tickets?

>243 涙のイエスタデー

Apparently it's in tomorrow's Sunday. Since the movie opens on April 17, an April 14 release is perfectly natural.

I want to rub my cheek against Yuri-san's upper arm in the PVs for スパイラル and 夢みたあとで.

Congrats on the long-awaited Conan movie theme song finally being confirmed!! ...Sagawa Express, hurry up and bring it already!! I even came home early for this........... Kamenashi-kun got chosen as the weekend sports program caster on NTV, huh. Johnny's has been going for the caster route lately. V6's Inocchi is hosting NHK's morning news program too.

>245 Wasn't it supposed to be delivered about ten days before the show? It'll probably arrive in about three more weeks. Hope you don't end up way in the back.

I hope the new song is bright and uptempo. Sagawa still hasn't come lol

http://ninjaaaaaaaaaa.mikosi.com/simpleVC_20100206075646.html ↑This person's taste in songs is pretty intense. I've never seen anyone like this before.

I want to have sex with Yurippe.

>254 You can't exactly recommend 忘れ咲き to someone who's hearing them for the first time... Wouldn't スパイラル or ロケット be better recommendations?

I wanna have sex with Yurippeee~

That's karma for trolling here lol

>258 If it's past eight, it should be here by now, right?

The tour merch is up on the official site!

The merch is priced about as high as expected. You can really tell they have to make money here.

I want to ride in a convertible with Yuri-san and speed stylishly through the streets.

A pendant with a natural garnet stone...!!

This is sudden, but I want MEGA HITS REQUEST to come back. The reason I first learned about GARNET CROW was that this show pushed them. I wonder how Sanshiro is doing.

Sanshiro...? You mean Sanshiro from the radio show Groove Friday? He really does a wide range of work, huh.

I want to smell Yurippe's armpits.

The 10th logo beats the tour logo by a mile, right? They should use the 10th logo for all the merch this year.

Yurippe's name came up before in a discussion about female artists who seemed to have body odor lol

Weren't they going to sell the Mini Cro CD on the tour? I wonder how much it'll be.

Priceless.

>272 Come to think of it, it's not listed anywhere.

Apparently the special live will be at Budokan in the summer.

Does the tour merch sell out quickly?

Take your time. I'll have the Mini Cro CD bought for you by this old man. Don't worry, I'll sell it to you on the auction site later for three times the price.

I want to go into a private outdoor bath with Yuri-san, just the two of us.

The merch design is finally decent for once.

I approve of the pamphlet being so ridiculously funeral-band-like.

I think Yuri-san is the most beautiful woman in the world.

What is a charm...?

A keychain. The design is cute, so young girls will probably like it.

>283 Thanks. I'd never heard of a “charm” before.

Charms are merch they sold on Arashi's concert tours too. They're venue-exclusive, and different at every show. Gane best-of, week 2 23rd　5,681 Arashi best-of, week ?? 21st　5,688

Lucky charm.

>279 It's decent, but what do you think of the crow logo? lol An iPod skin or a pendant would be nice. Collecting every kind of charm would be tough too.

The backstage invitation is pink.

T... the T-shirt design is actually pretty decent...

I sang sky at karaoke, and the whole room went completely silent. Why? (ﾌﾞﾜｯ

They were probably just absorbed in listening.

>262 I checked the mailbox before bed and it was there lol >288 Could you be the person who won? So jealous, and congrats!!

>292 Nope ^^; I happened to find a blog where someone had posted a picture of the invitation. So jealous♪

GARNET CROW New Single 『Over Drive』 So it really was true after all. http://www.shinseido.co.jp/cgi-bin/WebObjects/Catalog.woa/wa/detail?r=GZCA-7155

<DVD contents> 「As the Dew」Music clip special ver. News embargo lifted today = Conan.

I've gotten hooked on スパイラル and 君の思い描いた夢 集メル HEAVEN. I've been listening to them every day lately.

The official site is holding back the news just for now, but at least update right at midnight. If the official site isn't the first place to put out the info, what's the point of calling it official?

ZARD released their news on Saturday, right~ Sunday has gotten pretty pushy. Do they really want to sell the magazine that badly?

It's great that a Gane Crow song is going to play in theaters.

You guys used to have a phase where you kept saying you'd had enough of Conan...

Enough with the old hag already. I would've preferred Aiko Kitahara or someone like that（´・ω・｀）

Of course, by “old hag” I mean AZUKI 七! Almost 40 lol

( ^ω^) Kids are cute.

Hey, guys, I never said anything like that.

Given the mood around here, is there a chance they'll debut the new song at this weekend's live show?

>305 No way.

>A classy mid-tempo tune woven from a sound filled with a floating feeling, a sense of openness, and warmth. Something like Naked Story (´・ω・｀)?? But it says mid-tempo...

>307 Maybe it's the “Float World” type?

I see, that kind of thing.

I hope the general public doesn't tear it apart too badly...(>ω<`)

>305 The Osaka group stuck at the very end can suck it lol

The Osaka and Tokyo crowds overlap, right? I'm like that too.

>295 I wonder what “special ver.” means...

Detective Conan isn't really a show that anime otaku get excited about, is it? If anything, the main target is innocent children (+ fujoshi shotacon fans?).

The comments section on Conan's production blog is insane... It makes me want to back away from the screen—so Conan is aimed at fujoshi too?

Without Conan, they'd really stop selling, wouldn't they? Even though they have good songs besides Conan.

The PVs always use the same audio and only change the visuals.

>314 For an innocent child to go see it, their parents have to take them, right? And adults would probably find Conan interesting too.

It's still a loli anime for gross otaku. The only people out of touch with reality are Conan otaku.

I got an email from G-NET too.

2/27 (Sat), Tokyo area: 13/9°C, 70% As expected from the rain man—here it comes (ﾟ∀ﾟ)

I bet Yurippe's lady parts are wet too.

Is the audio on Disc 3 of the best-of album (the collection of B-sides) remastered too?

Mochi: “I'm already soaking wet.”

Over Drive has finally been officially announced. Congrats again on getting your first movie theme song.

A beginner's album to attract casual fans before moving to Avex. GARNET CROW〜2010 summer soul〜 1 晴れ時計 2 マージナルマン 3 スパイラル 4 今宵エデンの片隅で 5 fill away 6 夏の幻 7 二人のロケット 8 Rhythm 9 君の思い描いた夢　集メル　HEAVEN 10 wish★ 11 スカイ・ブルー 12 flying 13 Over Drive 14 Mysterious Eyes

Congrats.

The title Over Drive feels very Avex-like. If possible, I wish they'd move away from Conan and get more tie-ins with things like Inuyasha, One Piece, and Fullmetal Alchemist.

>323 Yeah. Strictly speaking, Disc 3 doesn't just have B-sides; it also includes album tracks.

I watched Conan when I was little, but lately Conan's expressions have been so narcissistic that they put me off.

The author is a gross otaku to begin with, and the content is a loli anime for gross otaku too.

I want the next new song to be called YURI.

>256 I played ロケット for a friend before, and they said it takes way too long to get to the chorus. Personally, I love the sense of release when the chorus comes all at once. Also, スパイラル and ロケット are too low-key to sing at karaoke. And I'm a guy. If I raise the key, I can't sing the chorus.

>333 That's what they call singing an octave lower, so don't worry about it.

>332 And then it continues with NANA HIROHITO HITOSI right?

I've never seen a Conan movie, but I'm going to see this one. Osan said the best-of tour was just the opening act of the 10th-anniversary year, so things might get even crazier after April.

Osan would probably be amazing at skating.

If the next single comes with the As music clip, then it was the right call not to buy the best-of lol I would've bought it if they'd put a little more thought into it.

*1　72,849 The gap between releases was way too long.

>333 You don't have to brag so proudly about singing an octave lower...

I want Yurippe to call me “Little Detective.”

Won ten awards at the Japan Gold Disc Awards!!

Just looking at Yurippe's sexy lips makes me feel like I'm about to come.

So this week I'll get to see Yurippe and hear the new song.

The Conan movie is confirmed, huh~ Congrats/ 「夏を待つセイルのように」 was the best one in the past few years... (Even though technically it's an A-side single as a movie theme song, it kind of feels like they treat it as a B-side lol)

I think Yuri-san is the most beautiful woman in the world.

I want to marry Yuri-san and have three kids.

Yurippe only needs to have my children.

Yurippe gives off the impression that she can't do any cooking or laundry at all.

What will the band lineup be for this tour?

Same as before.

I'm really happy the Conan thing is confirmed!! I want a grand, despair-filled ballad!

>350 Tak Matsumoto.

The staff blog has updated again, unusually.

The staff are really fired up! Looks like they really are going to play the new song on the tour.

So the long-awaited ○○ really was the long-awaited new song. By the way, is Kurose the drummer in the photo?

Wait, was Kurose a mohawk under that hat?

The photos are as crappy as ever...

>357 He has a mohawk.

>359 Yeah, that's what I thought. The person in the photo doesn't really look like Kurose.

Rather than another single, where are last year's tour DVD and the CDL DVD?

>361 They've been putting out official tour DVDs from the very beginning, so this one will probably come out too. The countdown show hasn't been streamed anywhere either, so I guess that one will come out too. But with this best-of tour too... are they really going to release this many DVDs?

The merch for this tour is great. It's the first time since my first live show that I've wanted everything. I wish the iPhone stuff had a slightly more understated design.. Towel, pamphlet, charm... it's going to cost over 10,000 yen aaahhh...

I want to make Yurippe eat lots of green peppers.

Yurippe hates green peppers.

The pictures on the blog are way too small.

>216 What sexual comments did Yurippe make?

In the FC merch suggestion corner, if I sent in “I want a dakimakura of the dependable leader, Furui-san. If possible, I'd like one of every member,” would they actually adopt it?

>367 Q1. What do you like? (´･ω･)「Penis」 Q2. What do you dislike? (´･ω･)「Small dick (laughs)」 Q3. Movie (´･ω･)「Deep Throat... I like it, it's one of my favorite movies」 Q4.

Desert island (´･ω･)「I'm surprisingly an indoor person, so I'd like to go to a desert island or somewhere and experience outdoor sex at least once」 Q12. If you could take just one thing to a desert island? (´･ω･)「A vibrator... hehe (laughs)」 Q13. Love (´･ω･)「Sex」 Q14. 夢みたあとで (´･ω･)「Losing my virginity」 Q15. Okamocchi (´･ω･)「The most important thing」 Fuck You!

I want to have sex with Yuri-san.

I want to go camping on a desert island with Yuri-san.

I want to build a relationship resembling love with someone resembling Yurippe on an island resembling a desert island.

A beginner's album to attract casual fans before moving to Avex. GARNET CROW〜2010 summer soul〜 1 晴れ時計 2 マージナルマン 3 スパイラル 4 今宵エデンの片隅で 5 fill away 6 夏の幻 7 二人のロケット 8 Rhythm 9 君の思い描いた夢　集メル　HEAVEN 10 wish★ 11 スカイ・ブルー 12 flying 13 Over Drive 14 Mysterious Eyes

I want to sing Go For It with Yuri-san.

Go For Yurippe

When are they going to move to Avex?

avex lol Their promotion seems like it would be good, but if they moved over, they'd probably work her until she lost her voice and then dump her immediately.

Thanks to the Conan movie, even Saegusa and Supapoi have been able to appear on TV. GARNET should be able to make lots of appearances too, right...?

We're all looking forward to seeing them on TV, right~ Feels like it'll be their first appearance in about two and a half years.

Supapoi broke up...

Supakuri on TV × Conan movie ○ Conan TV Whether they appear on TV probably depends on Thomas-san. Even Aiuchi didn't get on TV through Conan during their 10th anniversary.

I want to go to a desert island with Yuri-san and some food.

I wonder what hotel they're staying at in Tokyo.

Furui-san on the staff blog cracked me up.

Osan is so surreal lol It probably wouldn't be funny if the other members did that pose, but when Osan does it, it becomes a joke! lol

I want to punch Osan. The reason they don't appear on TV is probably the members' choice. Even Mochi and Yurippe have said that they get really nervous when they go to the Kanto area, even for radio. On Hey! Hey! Hey!, Downtown took the topic Gane Crow brought up and ran with it on their own, but people like Tamori can't do that, so TV is a tough environment for Gane Crow.

I want to sniff-sniff Yuri-san's panties right after she takes them off.

*1→*1　53,841 19:00–VS Arashi 22:00–Himitsu no Arashi-chan DAIGO from BRZ is appearing on today's Mannequin Five!! Don't miss it.

I heard Yurippe sings the backing vocals on ZARD's フォトグラフ, so I listened to the song for the first time in ages, but I can't hear her at all... Am I still not trained enough? (´･ω･`)

Furui-san is cute.

Furui-san is cute.

Furui-san is cute.

Go For Osan

Old man.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKOWT_Ez83s Yurippe is cute.

I'll get to see Yurippe the day after tomorrow.

I get to see Yurippe and Osan, and hear the new song too.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsbt-fvKU6I http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yy04meiiQWQ They've really grown up.

I was crushed that Disc 3 of the best-of doesn't have 水のない晴れた海へ, 夕月夜, U, Anywhere, or 最後の離島.

ttp://livedoor.blogimg.jp/garnetcrow10th/imgs/6/7/6700085d.jpg Kurose-san had a mohawk, right? Hasn't the drummer changed? Could it be Kuraya from IN db? Could it be Murakami from Naifu?

Kurose Kaichi Drummer appearance information 　GARNET CROW Happy 10th Anniversary livescope 2010 〜THE BEST TOUR〜 　　Feb 27 (Sat) Tokyo / Tokyo International Forum Hall A 　　Mar 6 (Sat) Sapporo / Sapporo Education and Culture Hall 　　Mar 16 (Tue) Hiroshima / Hiroshima Aster Plaza Grand Hall 　　Mar 18 (Thu) Fukuoka / Fukuoka International Congress Center Main Hall 　　Mar 20 (Sat) Sendai / Sendai Civic Hall Grand Hall 　　Mar 25 (Thu) Nagoya / Chunichi University Civic Hall Prunier Hall 　　Mar 27 (Sat) Osaka / Grand Cube Osaka Main Hall Sorry for the late announcement.. Please treat me well this year too. Another full tour lol

Does he have no work besides Gane? lol

Is he becoming GARNET CROW's exclusive drummer? Lately, whenever they have a live show, he seems to be there lol

>399 She has definitely gotten better, but I feel like her old thin voice suited the songs better. Getting the lyrics wrong is out of the question, though.

Well, he was drumming while passionately singing 夢みたあとで with that appearance of his. In a way, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a member.

Mannequin Five was funny lol Kurose on drums again?! Kuratani is still the best Gane drummer.

So Kuratani is unemployed... Is Oga unemployed too?

It'd be funny if Gane became a huge outfit like 米米CLUB!

>406 If you add Kurose and kick out AZUKI, they'd look like a normal band.

>410 If you kick out AZUKI 七 and Hirohito Furui, they'd look like Every Little Thing.

Kurose with GARNET CROW lol

If you kick out Yurippe and Nana, they'd look like Kobukuro.

Kurose with GARNET CROw Kurose-san, ever since he was fired as a support member for B'z, has basically just been GARNET CRW, hasn't he?

Kurose Rie.

Those of you going to Saturday's Tokyo show, please post a report! I'm going to B'z on both Friday and Saturday.

It's my first live show—are there any choreographed moves or anything? I'm nervous because I don't know anything!

>413 I want to ejaculate inside Yurippe.

>417 It's basically just waving your hands, so copy the person in front of you. You can tell when to do the moves by watching Furui-san.

>419 I'm in the front row, so there's no one in front of me! What should I do...?

How long is this live show going to be, I wonder? If it starts at 6 and runs for two and a half hours, I can barely make it home the same day... Since it's a best-of live, I feel like it'll be longer than usual...

Is there anything else I should bring to the live venue? Are glow sticks handed out?

What happened to MINIQLO?

Gane live choreography is basically just waving your hands left and right during 二人のロケット, or thrusting your fist into the air during スパイラル, right? Sometimes people dance along during wish★ too.

>424 What about that dance in Mr.Holiday? It's the only song I skip on the DVD.

If he's going to work with Gane Crow this much, I wish they'd properly use him for recording too~ He took part in the drum recording the whole time between “Brotherhood” and “ELEVEN,” right? I think it would sound better than the programmed drums they use now.

Why are we suddenly talking about Kurose?

>426 The programmed drums are fine as they are. Even if you record them live, the sound you can reproduce on a CD is limited.

>421 Even if it starts at 6, it'll be 10–20 minutes late, and live shows have been getting longer every year, so it'll probably finish after nine.

I want to marry Yuri-san.

I've told you, Yuri-san is married.

The MINIQLO details are taking forever.

The new Jump series cracked me up lol LOCK ON

Anyone invited backstage tomorrow? ﾉｼ

>428 It isn't limited. Apart from basically saving costs, Gane's programmed drums don't have any advantages.

Which blog has a picture of the backstage invitation ticket?

A thread with a music critic in it. An uncompromising music-production group: programmed drums.

I almost spat out my food when Gane Crow's name came up in a TV news report about iTunes victims.

Saida again?

It looks like the Gane radio show with things like their live goals recorded will update on the day of the live again. Terrifying.

The jacket is up on Oricon's site.

Since this is a special live show, after スパイラル ends, do you think they'll do 夢みたあとで or something as a double encore?

>441 The jacket looks pretty good.

My first live show is tomorrow, and I'm starting to get nervous!!

The Chinese sites have the regular-edition jacket too.

ttp://www.oricon.co.jp/news/photo/73761/p00201002260386947001267168210L/ Furui-san looks good.

Come to think of it, maybe they took the pamphlet photos at this time.

Is there a site where I can view the jacket photo on my phone? The official site still hasn't put it up...

Is it too much to ask that FC members be the first to get the information?

I'm not going to the live show, but I'm going to the venue tomorrow for that Mini Cro thing. I wonder if they're really selling it.

You could view it normally from Oricon's mobile site ^^; ttp://m.oricon.jp/p_news_photo.php?news_id=73761&img=2&c2=748422505

It's been a while since they've had such a cool-looking jacket.

>450 No announcement even the day before lol

Seriously, it pisses me off that Chinese sites scoop them every time.

It's way too dark lol

They're really establishing themselves as a funeral band.

The Olympics are almost over too. Speaking of the previous Winter Olympics, Mochi was made to do an Ina Bauer on Hey! Hey! Hey!, so he had to endure that humiliating bit.

Tokyo > Chiyoda Ward Feb 27 (Sat) 6:00　Light rain　12°C 9:00　Heavy rain　13°C 12:00　Heavy rain　9°C 15:00　Cloudy　8°C 18:00　Cloudy　7°C 21:00　Cloudy　7°C Just as you'd expect from the rain man and sunshine woman~

I want a funeral song with absolutely no changes in the musical development. Looking forward to a heavy sound played on a mokugyo and a temple bell!

>459 Wait until Obon season. AZUKI 七 I don't want sutra lyrics. Yurippe

I want them to go this far. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzGMOFBdiWE

http://www.mbs1179.com/uta/photo/c_guest/2010/0223_2.jpg

>462 (´v･ω･)v ( b￣_￣)b I'm getting sick of this pose already. (Uho... only 19 hours until the live show (^O^)ノ)

Yurippe's face is ridiculously tiny as always.

>462 Yurippe has a pretty manly-looking face there...

Where are Yurippe's boobs?

iPod/iPhone skins and protectors: 4,000 yen each ...With 4,000 yen, you could buy a really nice case.

Surely there won't be a Mochi singing segment this time.

I want to lick Yurippe's pussy.

>468 Maybe he'll sing a surprisingly popular song and start a whole pro-and-con debate. Something like Last love song...

To everyone attending the live show tomorrow, please find out how much the Mini Cro CD costs. And please find out whether glow sticks are handed out when you enter too.

They already sang Last love. They might as well sing 夢みたあとで.

Make Mochi sing 幸福なペット, then we'll all say “gross.”

Let's vote for Yuri Nakamura, the “declaring yourself a diva means you win lol” candidate. ttp://sentaku.org/music/1000016906/

>448 The mobile version has the details and jacket uploaded. The coupling song's title is undecided, but apparently there'll be one track. The first-press edition's As the Dew is a director's cut. The regular edition apparently comes with a QR code for downloading a phone wallpaper.

GARNET CROW's final anniversary live. Judging by their enthusiasm for the 10th anniversary, this is probably the last milestone year. I'm so lucky to be seeing this once-in-a-lifetime commemorative live show from the front row for the first time. Once in a lifetime—I probably won't ever meet the members in person again, so I have to engrave this in my heart.

The venue is huge, so if they make a DVD, will it be tomorrow's show? Even though it's the opening night.

>477 It'll be the Osaka or Fukuoka show.

>Director's cut... wait, is it not a GARNET CROW PV, but a Detective Conan opening video?

For those in the Tokyo group who were invited backstage, was the backstage invitation information included with the ticket?

The Tokyo show has the tour's largest capacity, so there's no way it won't be included on the DVD. It's both the opening show and the main event, with GARNET CROW's entire history concentrated into it.

We'll be the Tokyo group getting to hear Over Drive first. The Osaka group is last.

http://www.barks.jp/news/?id=1000058747 I want to read the script for Yurippe and Conan.

The latter half of the tour should be more settled too, so I'm looking forward to Nagoya.

The Osaka show is the real grand finale.

Even if they play Over Drive at the Tokyo show, it might only be one chorus.

The new song Over Drive will be performed in full as the second song after the encore.

An insider has arrived ｷﾀ━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━!!

The new song Over Drive will be the first song. That's what the stagehand said.

I'm looking forward to the live &hearts I like Gane because you can get tickets easily without much effort. It's Tokyo today, so people will probably be coming from all over the country. If you're coming from far away, be careful—the weather's bad. Let's enjoy it.

>490 There are regional shows too, so not that many people will be coming from all over the country.

I'm coming from out of town~

I hope Yurippe wets herself during the live show ｷﾎﾞﾝ

What is going on? The first Gane★Radio of 2010 still hasn't come out. The members' diaries only update when there's promotion, and the staff diary barely ever updates either. Even when it does, the content is weak. These days I really feel like saying, “Put a little effort into your work already!!!!!”

I ended up asking someone who went to the dress rehearsal for the setlist... ↓Mild spoilers—skip this if you don't want to see them. The first song is ○ysterious Eyes. スパイラル is the last song before the encore. The new song is the second song of the encore. The last song is... you'll have to wait and see. Also, Mochi will sing クリスタルゲージ, and AZUKI-san will dance during Mr. Holiday.

Who cares about that? Report whether they're selling Mini Cro already.

Could the Mini Cro CD possibly come as a bonus with the STAY tour live show?

Why post such a half-assed spoiler? lol

Calling it a spoiler is a bit much—the first song was pretty obvious to everyone, wasn't it??

In my head I was imagining a Premium Live + the new song. Is that not okay...

About time to head out for battle @ Toda.

Someone please find out the price of the Mini Cro CD.

Heading out now @ Kawaguchi.

Star Blog Yurippe (*^ω^*)♪戦(*^ω^*)

There's something that looks like a ghost behind her. Is it Okamocchi?

Could it be Furui-san? Yurippe seems like she eats a lot lol

Where's the live merch report already~

I can't figure out where the merch booth is lol

>505 Look closely—it was reflected in the mirror.

I watched Conan, but they didn't mention the theme song.

How much is the Mini Cro CD?

MINIQLO 「Paralyzed Frequency」 1. Holy ground 2. 恋のあいまに 3. クリスタル・ゲージ 1,500 yen I was expecting an album, but it's not even a mini-album.

Over Drive regular edition ttp://img.barks.jp/image/photo/album2/273/2000560273/MEDIUM_IMAGE_FILE_URL.jpg

>513 Thanks. 1,500 yen for three songs is a little expensive lol

T-three songs... 1,500 yen... That's awful... but I'll buy it... By the way, were they selling MFM?

Mini Cro　　　　　 1,500 Pamphlet　　　　　 3,000 Stage towel　　　　2,500 T-shirt　　　　　　2,500 Total 9,500 yen

There used to be a compilation of past MFM articles, but I don't think there was one after they switched to the new mail-order format.

Only three songs... (ﾟДﾟ)

>518 So there was a compilation? Thanks~

Yurippe's photo on Star Blog is so cute it makes me want to save it...

They're probably working hard right about now ^o^

Paralyzed Frequency = paralysis frequency ?????('A`)?????

I don't want to get the live show spoiled, so I'm not going to look at this thread from today onward lol

It's over.

>525 Did you hear the new song?

The disco ball cracked me up.

>526 I heard it. I was happy they also did Jewel Fish.

Those of you who attended the Tokyo show, please share today's setlist.

>516 MFM acquired.

>525 It ended way too quickly lol

>528 Thanks Jewel Fish, hell yeah (ﾟ∀ﾟ)

How was the new song? Was it good?

I want to hear 廻り道 more than Jewel Fish.

The new song is bright and refreshing, right?

The new song is the second one after the encore, a refreshing tune like something from an old idol song. I couldn't make out the lyrics, orz

Maybe it's 晴れ時計-style. It's weird if you can make out the lyrics, so don't worry about it.

>533 Honestly, it's a disappointing song.

>462 Did Yurippe get a nose job?

She's had an aquiline nose from the beginning.

Yurippe shouldn't get her nose done. ↓Because she'll end up like this in the future: ttp://image.blog.livedoor.jp/dqnplus/imgs/8/2/824b02b6-s.jpg

>533 It had a springlike, refreshing feel. Personally, I liked the intro through the A melody. The B melody through the chorus felt pretty ordinary.

At first I thought she'd just forgotten the lyrics, but was Yurippe crying during 夢みたあとで? I was too far away to see clearly.

What was Yurippe wearing?

I was going to buy the best-of, but the posters sold out way too fast. I'll go earlier next time and buy it.

>545 She was already crying when she looked behind her during the instrumental break.

>527

>546 Mini skirt.

>551 How short was the miniskirt? What was she wearing on top?

>552 Correction: It was a bodycon dress.

>553 Was it really a bodycon dress? Was it pretty revealing?

Spiral again as the last song lol Let's end with a different song for once.

>549 16. 夜更けの流星達 It's more popular than Stay and 君家, so this cracked me up lol

>549 Were the string section and Ikeda-san there?

They're on an RCC radio program right now. It's pretty interesting.

Thanks for the setlist. They didn't do 晴れ時計 again? What did Mochi sing?

>559 The Mochi segment turned into a Mini Cro segment.

The supporting musicians are the same as in 2009.

>560 Thanks.

What, Daisuke Ikeda isn't here? Without Daisuke Ikeda, Kurose's freestyle drumming is going to explode lol

>555 Yeah, true. But I guess the performers themselves enjoy it too. She still cries during 夢みたあとで even though she's sung it so many times. It really makes you think Yurippe is incredibly pure...

Ah, true. In that bodycon dress, she looked like a disco ball. >545 She was crying, yeah. She was wiping away tears near the end of the song. Kurose was going off.

I need to build up my arm strength first. Since it's the 10th anniversary, Spiral must be really long~ Since it's the 10th anniversary, maybe they'll repeat it about ten times?

Mini Cro CD Three songs, indie release, 1,500 yen They must be raking it in. 1. Holy ground 2. 恋のあいまに 3. クリスタル・ゲージ

Yurippe was insanely cute today. I was hard from the very beginning and it nearly killed me. I cried along during 夢みたあとで too. My tear ducts have gotten weak lately. I stopped by the bathroom on the way out, but the big stall was occupied. I wonder if everyone just couldn't hold it in?

No 晴れ時計 this time either, huh? I love that song—do they just not perform it live?

>565 If it was a bodycon dress, was it really that revealing?

>549 Thanks for the setlist. I thought Stay was great.

>571 I applauded every song.

It was great getting to hear 夜深けの流星達 after the countdown show too. It was my second time hearing it, but the opening still gave me goosebumps.

You'd better practice the wish★ choreography~

>574 I completely forgot it.

It's the first time I've seen Yurippe cry... (´；ω；｀)

The Disk Garage flyer they handed out at the entrance had a flyer for an AAA concert inside it. I was surprised they're still active. I was also surprised to see NHK Hall marked SOLD OUT. If Gane had played at NHK Hall today too, do you think it would've sold out? How was the turnout in the second-floor seats? It looked like they were selling same-day tickets.

The stage looked beautiful during 「Crier girl&Crier boy」~ Also... Nana-san really suits wearing a hat.

>577 It was full, anyway.

>570 Not at all.

Here's my poorly written report. My first live show was great—but it was a little lonely being alone, orz. I didn't expect to hear Cryer~ and 夕立の庭. It seemed like only the people toward the front of the first floor were doing the wish choreography lol The front of the second-floor section was full, but I couldn't really tell when we were supposed to stand. The otaku were standing here and there, so it felt kind of awkward. Was Yurippe crying? Seeing her nearly made me cry too. Nana being there is what keeps me going. Cheers to Mochi's presence. The old man is funny. The new song sounded like a mix of Tatsuro Yamashita, Yumi Matsutoya, and Kohmi Hirose. I hadn't realized スパイラル was such a positive song. Next time I want to go with at least one other person. That's all.

>580 How long was the skirt?

>570 There wasn't really any exposure, but today she put so much force into singing the “body” in 風とRainbow's ♪魅惑的なこのボディ〜 that it sounded like “vuu-WADY~.”

It felt like Yurippe's vocal delivery had changed while singing 夏の幻.

>581 >The front of the second-floor section was full, but I couldn't really tell when we were supposed to stand. >The otaku were standing here and there, so it felt kind of awkward. 22. 二人のロケット　← This is the best time to stand. After the encore: 28. 僕らだけの未来

The new song is, how should I put it... “Average.” The live show was good, though.

>583 Did she look a little foreign? If it was a bodycon dress, was it tight against her body and showing her figure?

>584 Am I the only one who thought her voice sounded like Ai Otsuka in places?

They sang Clockwork too. It must look even cooler live.

>588 I thought it sounded like Moritaka lol

Let's praise Yurippe's singing while playing an instrument more lol

I was in the front row and it was moving. I never thought I'd be able to sit at the very front with so many people there.

>592 Were you the idiot jumping around in the middle?

>577 I arrived around five, and there was even someone standing there holding a sign that said “Will you give me your ticket?”

That person was looking for a good seat.

>593 Not me (laughs).

It felt like there were a lot of grandpas and grandmas in the audience. Is it always like that? >591 Yeah, she played and sang. I didn't even know Mini Cro existed, but it was surprisingly decent and really moved me.

Was the outfit really a bodycon dress?

>593 I was wondering about that person the whole time too lol (though I was kind of jealous in a way~)

>581 The second floor has more older people, so they don't really stand lol If you want to stand, go to the first floor. The second floor is for people who want to listen quietly.

>596 Sorry. >599 It's great that the crowd was into it, but I thought doing PPPH while Yurippe was singing was pretty rude.

How can we improve the good-looking-to-ugly ratio among the fans? I think it's a serious problem...

>600 Not much I can do about that—it was a lottery, after all. Next time I guess I'll either aim for first-floor seats or join the fan club... But I feel like joining would mean I've lost.

I'm new here. What CDs are 恋のあいまに, 夜深けの流星達, and 雨上がりのBlue on?

>601 I was in row 20, so I couldn't see that much detail.

Someone please describe Yurippe's outfit in detail.

>603 Joining the fan club is only 4,000 yen, and I got a front-row seat after joining, so I thought it was a great deal. Why don't you try joining too?

>604 You're posting from a computer—why not search for it yourself?

The part where the new song moves from the intro into the melody is good. I prefer the Conan opening version.

>601 Exactly. I was in a first-floor “rain shelter” seat, and that guy kept getting in my line of sight. So annoying.

I want to see them from the front row someday too. When Yurippe cried, I wanted to cheer her up.

The fans should've sung for her at a time like that.

The Mini Cro CD was so good I burst out laughing.

>604 恋のあいまに / album “STAY〜夜明けのSoul” 夜深けの流星達 / single “君を飾る花を咲かそう” 雨上がりのBlue / album “I'm waiting 4 you”

>612 There wasn't even the slightest sign of that from the second-floor seats. Honestly, I couldn't even confirm whether she was crying! >613 When I got home, there was a crack in the case... But it's good. The photo is totally of a couple lol

Found the setlist: http://blog.livedoor.jp/garnetokamocchi0419/archives/51045817.html#more

The new song's reviews aren't that good at this point... Does that mean it's a song that will appeal to the general public? lol

>617 The chorus isn't particularly strong either, so it's not the kind of thing that makes you hear it once in a theater and immediately want to buy it.

>617 Honestly, I don't think so.

The beginning is the best lol It gets more ordinary as it goes on.

Looks like there was a costume change too. Someone please describe Yurippe's outfit in detail.

>617 It might be the worst song on the entire setlist...

Yeah, the guy in the middle of the front row was annoying. During スパイラル I thought, “Huh, where's Okamocchi?” Then I saw him lying down and cracked up.

>590 I vote Olivia Newton-John.

>618-620, 622 Is that so... Then I guess I'll hope it's a grower that gets better the more you listen to it...

It was great that they did さよならと〜, Holy~, and call my name. The last tour felt lacking without songs like these where she can really show off her voice.

It was a shame they didn't do 晴れ時計 or マージナルマン.

It's a Conan movie theme song, but it's so forgettable lol Going by the image from the official description, Float World would've been much better.

They left out flying, last love song, and 晴れ時計 too.

It feels more like something that plays at the end as the credits roll than an opening song. I was imagining something like ZARD's Sail, after all. It feels completely different from the image of the first-release jacket lol

They did the same choreography as 二人のロケット during the chorus of the new song, right? But how should I put it? This may sound cliché, but the chorus has no hook. There was nothing that grabbed me, and it just washed over me. Though it might sound different on the CD.

Could the album Mochi sang in Okamocchi's segment be released?

>616 The person next to me was taking notes like crazy too. Tough to do that in the dark.

>631 It sounded like Tatsuro Yamashita's Christmas Eve had been mixed straight into it, and I cracked up.

I wonder how many people got the heart-shaped paper airplanes. Though they were the kind of thing that breaks right away anyway.

>608 Sorry. I looked it up, but couldn't really figure it out. >614 Thanks.

I wish they'd done 君を飾る〜 and 忘れ咲き too lol The arrangement of らいらいや will probably be divisive lol Personally, I thought it was a little off lol 夜更け was really good. By the way, they chose from these three based on the volume of the audience's applause: 夜更け 君の家着く〜 STAY

>523 “Paralyze” is translated in English-Japanese dictionaries as “to numb,” but metaphorically it can also mean “to make something unable to function.” “Frequency” can mean “frequency,” but it's more often used to mean “something that happens frequently.” So maybe “paralyzed frequency” means “frequent activity that has become impossible”? When I saw this title at the Tokyo Forum today, I was a little shocked. I started wondering all sorts of things, like whether it meant that since they've been active so frequently from last year into this year, they're going to take a little break from live shows.

It's the kind of move where you raise your hands and wave them side to side, but the old guy next to me had body odor, and I couldn't take the smell... I wish old men would just sit down and watch.

>637 We don't need any “Ha!” stuff, right?

The animation playing behind 二人のロケット was cute and great. I wonder if they made that specifically for this live show. I wish they'd include it as some kind of bonus.

I hope the DVD comes out soon. Given today's turnout, the Tokyo show will probably be included.

The Gane live still has a high rate of ugly faces and bad smells lol

Were they recording today? There was no recording area or camera in front of the front row. Maybe they only made a documentary-style recording around the PA?

How long was Yurippe's skirt in today's outfit?

There really weren't any cameras today. When cameras are in, people wiggle around and it's annoying. I guess they'll record it in their hometown, Osaka.

Seriously, was it a bodycon disco-ball dress? What a lame outfit lol

>646 The person taking photos really was wiggling around. When Yurippe couldn't sing 夢みたあとで (was it part of the staging?), they were snapping away from the front row too.

Test.

>647 Last time it was silver. This time they've upgraded to gold lol

Passed!

So that means Yuri-san's tears during 夢みたあとで won't be recorded... That feels like such a waste.

>650 How long was the skirt?

No matter how you put it, the skirt was pretty long lol It wasn't a miniskirt lol I thought the black-and-white outfit in the second half suited her pretty well. The men's outfits looked like an extension of delinquent fashion lol

>652 It lives on in the memories of everyone who was there. That's enough.

>654 How long was it relative to her knees?

Maybe they're recording it at the Fukuoka International Congress Center. ttp://www.marinemesse.or.jp/img_ph/shiryo/3zaseki.pdf

Yurippe crying on the first day of the tour... I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but I can't help getting an ominous feeling.

>581 Sorry, I'm the otaku who was standing here and there on the second floor. Even if the second floor is meant for older people, that drum volume can't be good for their hearts. It was way too loud, seriously.

>658 She did say something like “from now on too~,” at least. I searched for miniqlo on Google and got nothing but nonsense, which cracked me up.

>656 Probably just a little below the knees... I wasn't that far toward the front either lol Why are you so obsessed with the skirt length? lol

Fukuoka, huh... In terms of prestige, I'd rather have Tokyo or Osaka. The fans' energy would probably be different too.

You should ignore the guy who keeps pestering people about the skirt. He asks every time and is never satisfied no matter what anyone says.

According to the members, Fukuoka has lots of beautiful women and lots of handsome men.

If they're going to do it, I'd rather they include a little from every venue.

If they're going to do that, they should occasionally leave Tokyo and Osaka out and alternate one song from each regional show.

>664 I'm from Fukuoka originally, and I think that's right. Lots of beautiful women and not many otaku.

I'm off to Fukuoka.

The first listen to 「Over Drive」 was kind of meh... I prefer 「As the Dew」, but maybe it's a grower. Looking forward to the coupling song too.

I have a bad feeling that this will become the worst song in Gane history.

>661 Is the bodycon thing true? If it's bodycon, does that mean it's a skin-tight outfit that emphasizes her figure?

Just wait and see lol

*1*1*1　25,721 *1*1*1*1　15,831 Just got back from my B'z concert trip lol The fan-club newsletter arrived too lol B'z's live show was amazing.

It was nice that there were fewer shouts between songs today. They're seriously annoying.

>671 Maybe like they turned the outfit from Rock On into a disco ball, and put her in tights instead of boots...

Just got home. Since it's the 10th anniversary, there were more singles, but somehow the live felt more repetitive than usual. As always, they ended with スパイラル, and 夏の幻 had the usual secret arrangement. It was great getting to hear Jewel Fish, but for some reason it was a short version without the second verse, which was a little disappointing. Also, during Holy ground, the whole venue became a confusing mess of people not knowing whether to stand or sit.

I want to ask the Tokyo group: Were glow sticks handed out?

>677 They were.

At this point, judging by the jacket, the new song isn't a double A-side either, right? It's insane that a song that would just get buried if it were on that album is the title track. And the bonus DVD is As the Dew, seriously...?

>675 Was her figure really emphasized?

>678 Thanks. So that's when you use them during Holy Ground.

>676 There were a lot of moments that made no sense, yeah. There was a real sense of unity until people started using the glow sticks.

>681 There are tons of useless ads inside, so be careful not to accidentally throw out a member card when you toss them.

I finally bought the best-of I'd been holding off on buying. It came with a poster, so that was nice. Since you got a poster for spending over 3,000 yen, I also bought the 6th release with a PV and the 7th with an arrangement CD, and got the posters for 集メル and 世界は廻るというけれど.

>669 Haven't seen that name in a while.

While I was filling out the survey on the way out, someone who seemed to have been sitting in the front rows, though we'd never met, gave me some silver tape that had shot out with a bang. Apparently a lot of it had hit them, so they were throwing it away. Anyway, thank you very much.

>681 The people around me used them during “世界回る” too, so I reluctantly dug mine back out and waved it along with them lol

>686 Something ball-shaped shot out along with the silver tape too. What was that?

I tried to do the survey on the card I received, but it says “outside of service hours” and won't let me lol When does it start lol Wasn't it limited to 48 hours lol Start it already lol

>689 It worked normally when I did it.

So a cellphone is essential, huh? lol

It felt like there was a higher proportion of female fans than usual. Also, maybe because they were trying to imitate Yurippe, there were lots of ponytails. Even the hair ties were white ribbon-like ones, like the kind Yurippe uses.

>690 Oh, you're right. It works now lol Thanks.

Today was my first live show, and since I got a general ticket, I was in the back of the second floor. Wasn't the atmosphere way too much like a funeral?! Is it always like that?

Come to think of it, there was no screen despite how huge the venue was. People in the back probably couldn't see much at all.

>694 That's how it is. Even then, they supposedly picked songs with relatively lively vibes...

>685 I used my fixed handle for the first time in a while. It was a shame there was no screen, so there were no lyrics either... MINIQLO's クリスタル・ゲージ is great. I like the hitoshi okamoto mix too, though lol

Where are the wallpaper images?

I couldn't buy the Mini Cro CD... I didn't notice it when I first went to the merch booth, and when I tried to line up on the way out, they said, “The CD is sold out!”

So jumping is prohibited at Osaka Dome... Apparently the surrounding area shakes... and apparently the floor of Grand Cube will collapse. There were tons of B'z otaku from the station all the way to the shops inside the dome. An absolutely insane number of otaku... The highlight of this stage is the Johnny's-approved moving Scaletone stage. May 15 at Osaka Dome is Hey!Say!JUMP—I'm looking forward to it!!!!

It's already appeared at auction. http://page8.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h139773938 What scum.

Those who managed to buy the Mini Cro CD, what time did you get there?

The supposedly super-rare recording 「風とRAINBOW 〜Vento refrescante ver.〜」 isn't really that different from the original lol Maybe Osan just arranged it a little, like he was making it into a ringtone.

She lost the lyrics partway through. Was she too overcome with emotion to sing after all? Her voice came back normally afterward, so I wasn't sure. But they really pushed the merch hard lol The merch prices have been getting ridiculously high too. I wonder if they're finally having a hard time relying on CDs alone.

For the MINIQLO CD, do I go to the CD sales area?

If there'd been a screen, we could've seen Nana's face too... >702 At least 5:15 was still plenty early.

Quite a lot of people apparently couldn't get the Mini Cro CD, so I feel like they'll eventually make it available by mail order.

Every song from the start of the show through songs ①②③④ was a Conan theme, which cracked me up. Since it's a best-of live, I guess it's aimed at the general public after all. (I do like this setlist, though.)

>702 I bought it easily at entry, with barely any line.

>705 It's over by the merch booth. It's separate from the CD sales area.

I ended up spending 8,500 yen just on merch. Good thing I withdrew cash beforehand. >707 That's when CoolCityProduction comes into play.

>706 >709 Thanks. If it was easy to buy in Tokyo, it should be even easier in Fukuoka, right?

>705 It was next to the tour merch. It might be different depending on the venue, though.

>702 I could still buy it at 5:55, right before sales stopped before the show. The merch booth was insanely crowded after the show. >705 They told me it wasn't at the CD area but at the merch booth.

>711 I spent a little over 20,000 yen on three albums, Mini Cro, and merch. What a nice offering...

>702 The line before the show was demonically long, so I gave up and sprinted over after the show and bought it right away. >705 At first I thought it was the CD sales area, but it was the merch sales area.

I thought 風とRainbow really stood out in the setlist~

Thanks, Tokyo group. So Mini Cro is at the merch booth. >711 If I do the math, mine will probably come close to 8,500 yen too. Pamphlet Stage towel Mini Cro I'd like the red T-shirt if possible. I guess I could order the shirt online too.

Do you get one poster for every 3,000 yen you spend? Like, would spending 9,000 yen get you three?

The person jumping way too much in the center of the front row should show a little restraint lol Lucky for them it wasn't recorded today.

>719 Exactly.

13. Timeless Sleep Merch is sold here → MINIQLO 14. 籟・来・也 15. 恋のあいまに 16. 夜深けの流星達 17. 水の無い晴れた海へ Or here → 18. 夢みたあとで Those are good times to buy—it’s empty and you can get it quickly.

This little guy under 159 cm is wondering what kind of seat I’ll get next time @ the Fukuoka show. I was asked to buy on behalf of a friend, and apparently they got row 7 for the countdown show.

>716 After the show, people who were after the CD and those planning to hit the merch booth later were all lined up until the line went up one floor. Then when my buddy and I tried to join the line, someone at the booth announced, “The CD just sold out!” and voices came from around the line: “What? I lined up because I wanted to buy the CD~”

>720 The person in the back was jumping so much it was almost sad to watch.

I think the live ended around 20:40, but assuming Osaka ends at the same time, can I make the 21:20 last train from Shin-Osaka to Tokyo? I thought I’d have plenty of time, but I’m starting to get a little worried.

Can you choose the poster?

>726 Please stay at a nearby business hotel.

>718 Looks like we went for the same items too. >722 Don’t recommend that, please. People who can’t make it back in time are a pain. You’re better off buying before the show. If you lined up at 4:50, you’d have plenty of time.

I think the Tokyo area has enough drawing power, but is an extra Tokyo show really impossible? (Like a final Budokan show...)

No screen? lol Apparently their financial situation is seriously bad, so for now, please check out Hey!Say!JUMP’s “瞳のスクリーン”!

>696 I see. But I couldn’t hold back and stood up during Spiral too! It was fun lol I wish I’d stood up earlier... I regret just going along with the atmosphere. Next time I’ll get hyped from the beginning!

Did Yurippe’s mirror-ball outfit emphasize her figure?

>729 Everyone thinks alike. Feb 12: B’z, 9,500 yen Mar 18: Gane Crow, 8,500 yen In barely one month, I’m going to end up donating 1,800 yen to the BEING/GIZA/VERMILLION family.

Hope they sell the CD through the fan club later~ I can’t say it’s impossible that Musing will start carrying it eventually, either.

>730 Budokan? No way lol. There are still tickets left even in the Tokyo area.

>730 Doesn’t look like it this time. They were still selling same-day tickets at today’s show.

涙のイエスタデー was the live version. When the opening went “涙のイエースタデー♪” and Yurippe came out with a rocket jump, I cracked up lol By the way, I ran into someone I met at the Countdown LIVE today, and they gave me a photo they took of Yurippe and Nana-sama’s graduation album lol Yurippe was way too cute lol Nana-sama was cute too, but somehow she looked a bit like Itsuji Itao lol Anyway, good work to everyone from the first-day group. Good night.

>726 It’s about 20 minutes to Shin-Osaka. The show started right on time today, but that’s pretty rare. With the holiday timetable, it’d be seriously risky.

>731 There were about four screens.

>727 You can choose, but there are only four types. 集メル, 世界は回ると花は咲いて, and I forgot the other one.

>734 Now that I think about it, I bought an eco-bag too lol You’re missing a zero. >738 I was desperately trying to find her from far away during the intro.

Which one is it, seriously? No screen There is a screen

I forgot to buy B’z live goods lol Well, I did buy stuff at the Johnny’s shop lol

>729 That’s true. This time it worked out because my seat was at the edge, close to the exit.

They played the new song after the live too. If Yurippe and Okamocchi did an acoustic Mini Cro, I’d love for Furui and Okamocchi to release a remix CD too. Remi-Cro.

>743 There was a screen, but they weren’t showing live footage on it.

>743 There were screens, but they didn’t show the people singing. The split-up screens showed old images and stuff like visual concept footage.

>743 No screen showing live footage in real time or displaying the lyrics. There were six displays for background footage.

>734 I’m going to the B’z show at Tokyo Dome next week lol Of course I’m buying goods too orz

They’re screens for the staging, not screens showing the people onstage. So the people in the back at Kokusai Forum must have had it rough.

If you want us to fill out a survey, it’d help if you included a pencil too... Ahh, I can’t sleep.

>728 >739 Yeah, it really is cutting it close. I’ll book somewhere to stay. Maybe I’ll stop by the Kaiyukan the next day before heading home.

I see. There are things that kind of look like screens, but they only show old footage, with no lyric cards or live footage. What is this lol Doesn’t that make the screens pointless? Or did the cameras just fail to arrive in time?

There are screens. But I didn’t see any cameras for filming footage. The screens seem to show old photos and that sort of thing. Also, the set kind of looks like an old Music Station set... Is it because TV Asahi is involved in the production?

>755 Come to think of it, the ticket did say the organizer was TV Asahi. So is that why they treated them like that on the “We’ll show 1,000 artists making their Music Station debut” thing the other day...?

>753 I booked the hotel next to Fukuoka International Congress Center too. I’m traveling from Kitakyushu to Fukuoka City, but I don’t have a driver’s license, so I’m planning to take the bus. There might be a bus from Fukuoka to Kitakyushu after the live, but I’m terrible with directions, so I’d definitely get lost walking around at night lol I’m staying overnight to be on the safe side.

>738 That photo of Yurippe and Nana-sama’s graduation album— is it a picture of Yurippe from when she was a student? Is it one of Yurippe’s classmates?

>736 I looked it up and apparently Budokan seats 8,000 to 10,000 people. (For some reason, until now I’d been mistakenly thinking Japan Budokan ≒ Kokusai Forum orz)

>756 TV Asahi organized it and even ran commercials on Music Station, but they didn’t appear in the 1,000 artists thing? That’s harsh.

I recorded Music Station, but they never appeared at all, so I deleted it.

>738 Okamocchi was lying down on that stage toward the end. What the hell was he trying to do? lol

Why is TV Asahi organizing it in the first place?

Man, this live was the best one so far! There were tons of rare songs in the setlist, and the stage and production were great too. When Yurippe cried during 夢みたあとで, I almost started crying too. My seat was in a single-digit row, but I made eye contact with Okamocchi so many times lol He wouldn’t look away at all, so for a second I thought, “Whoa,” and I’m seriously beyond saving lol

>753 Back in 2008, people who missed the Shinkansen went home from Umeda on an overnight bus.

The atmosphere really died during the Mini Cro segment. The audience reaction was kind of bad. Even when they said, “We’re doing the classic 水のない〜!” it was just dead silent... And after that, everyone stayed seated during 夢みたあとで too (and for about half of Holy ground).

Yurippe, did you change outfits after the encore?

>761 You deleted it? Idiot!? Arashi, Japan’s busiest national super-idol group, was on it lol

It’s supposedly one of their signature songs, but it isn’t even on a CD.

B’z LIVE-GYM 2010 Pamphlet 3000 Bag 500 Towel 3000 Tour truck 1500 Cell-phone strap 1500 9500 GARNET CROW MINIQLO 1500 Pamphlet 3000 Towel 2500 T-shirt (S) (planned) 2500 9500 Huh, Mini Cro is more expensive than I expected. I thought it would be 500 yen. Maybe I’ll give up on the T-shirt >＜

>766 During the Mini Cro segment, Okamocchi’s guitar was reflecting so much light that I kept noticing it every time he moved lol

The Countdown Live had the best setlist and atmosphere, so compared to that... It’s also disappointing that this was supposed to be a best-of live, but there were no strings or backing vocalists.

It was Mini Cro’s first performance in Tokyo, though.

>738 That photo of Yurippe and Nana-sama’s graduation album— if someone uploaded it, it’d cause a huge commotion.

When I got home and looked at the goods I bought, I started wondering why the hell I bought a bag charm. Seriously, why did I buy something like this...

It wasn’t their first time after all.

>762 After seeing that, the old guy went up onstage too, but when he came up, Mochi went back down. The old guy probably wanted to interact with Mochi, but he was left up there alone and looked disappointed. >765 I’ve gone home on the sleeper express Ginga before. It’s been discontinued now.

Nobody’s really talking about Nana-san. Was she just kind of invisible? lol

When they asked who had come to the Countdown Live, surprisingly a lot of people raised their hands and it freaked me out. I should’ve gone too.

The whole flow from Mini Cro starting to the two of them doing the rocket was way too heavy. They should’ve put an upbeat song somewhere in the middle too.

>766 I didn’t even know Mini Cro existed, haha.

Are there production screens or not?? B’z’s live screens are just god-tier. Inaba and Matsumoto are the best!!

>778 She just gets called on like usual and says a few words. But it’s pretty bad if she can’t answer when asked what the highlights of the lyrics are.

>783 Oh, I see... I wish she’d loosen up and let herself go more, though.

>773 If you suddenly tell me that, I’m just going to be like, “What’s that?” And I didn’t know what to make of 水のない〜 being made slightly more upbeat. >778 Even I’m messed up, and she looked messed up to me. But if Nana’s going to do her best, I’ll do my best too.

>783 I totally lost it at “We don’t accept anything except stock comments,” though lol

>778 Nana-san really was the same old Nana-san as always. She played with a big smile and looked like she was having fun, and sometimes she even goofed around. It wasn’t like Yokohama, so I’m relieved lol

Three out of the four members made the huge blunder of wearing their pendants backward. And the old guy, who seemed to be wearing his correctly, couldn’t check what state his pendant was in himself— maybe because his neck is too thick...

There’s tons going on in Fukuoka on March 18~ National Pottery Fair Tetsuya Komuro talk & live GARNET CROW

Did Yurippe’s mirror-ball outfit emphasize her figure?

Yurippe, did you change outfits after the encore?

I’m looking at JUMP’s fan newsletter right now, and don’t they have a lot of shirtless photos~? Arashi’s newsletter has a lot of shirtless photos too. Johnny’s sure has a lot of skin on display.

Nana’s poem in the pamphlet is pretty funny. I came back to the Gane thread for the first time in about seven years, and today was fun. Thanks, everyone. Good night.

At the luge.

Come to think of it, there was an application form for the headphones, which are made to order only. The garnet-color customization is nice and all, but could they at least announce the manufacturer and model? They cost 10,000 yen.

>795 I agree. Audio-Technica?

There’s no way the ringtone song is different at every venue, right?

>797 I think it’s the same, but there’s no way to know until the next Sapporo show is over, right?

How much was the pendant? What was it like? I thought I could buy it online, but it isn’t listed anywhere orz

On the back of the goods handed out at today’s show and the headphone application form, it says GARMET CRROW instead of GARNET CROW lol Who did this lol

>795 I think it’s Audio-Technica’s ATH-FC700.

>799 It’s listed below. http://www.garnetcrow.com/news/live.html#besttour

>802 Thanks.

I think I felt the same way at the previous tour, livescope2009, but the PA seemed bad. During as the dew, for example, the vocals were too loud and the high notes sounded a little shrill. Other than that, it was awesome, though. Kurose wasn’t hogging the spotlight as much as before either lol Someone nearby was using a red glow stick and got warned by a staff member halfway through lol

http://brunhild.sakura.ne.jp/up/src/up432861.jpg My personal single ratings list.

Did the company name for bank transfers change to Being starting this time?

>801 You can buy it for 3,000 yen, can’t you!

>805 I like 繊維状, but I don’t listen to this kind of stuff at all.

During 夢のひとつ, wasn’t Yurippe repeatedly pointing upward? Was she telling them to raise the pitch? It seemed like they went back to the original key in the second half.

Damn, if it weren’t for that 4, my ID would’ve been BZ and I could’ve celebrated lol orz >809 I didn’t see that gesture, but usually when someone points upward, it means they can’t hear themselves and are signaling to turn up the volume. Unless they’d agreed on a signal beforehand, changing the pitch in the middle of a song would be difficult, wouldn’t it? Especially with a live band.

I think 夢のひとつ is fine in the original key. If they lowered it, wouldn’t it actually be too low and harder to sing?

I don’t think that song is hard to sing because it’s low. It probably modulates too much, so if they don’t use the original key, the pitch goes off. They started a semitone lower, but Yurippe was missing the notes all over the chorus. Still, the high parts must be tough in the original key.

>790 It was Yuriana Tokyo.

Kokusai Forum was a god-tier venue—you could see the whole thing clearly even from row 38. I could tell Yurippe’s mirror bodycon outfit showed off every inch of her figure (and she looked slightly more busty), but obviously I couldn’t make out her facial expressions. Still, I’m a die-hard Yurippe fanatic. I was watching from row 38 through the eyes of an unclouded Yurippe fanatic, so I immediately knew she was crying during 夢みたあとで. Anyone giving off a “Did she forget the lyrics?” vibe still has a long way to go.

The moment Mini Cro started playing 水のない, I thought, “Die, you lovey-dovey couple.”

Did anyone yell, “Marry me~”?

>815 There were a few people who kept being badly timed during Mini Cro, huh.

The audience ranged from single-digit kids all the way up to people in their seventies. I felt all warm and fuzzy seeing an old man in a GC cap already lining up before 14:30. Then one of the staff had a voice like Horiken, which warmed my heart too. Yurippe burst out from behind Kurose. She wasn’t revealing anything at all, but she was sexier than ever lol Yurippe was dancing on top of Kurose’s head. Her voice kind of sounded like her early-days voice too. The PA distorted several times (and pretty badly, even during mellow songs), but nobody noticed until Yurippe gave them a signal... That was the only bad part this time. Once the distortion stopped, it was absolutely incredible. Kurose was necessary in a hall like this. Yurippe cried during 夢みたあとで. Meanwhile, Kurose was drumming while singing his heart out. Mini Cro was great. Yurippe’s singing while playing was great too. For glow sticks, 世界は〜 somehow felt better. The paper airplanes didn’t make it as far as row 38 (they all went to the front rows). The tape didn’t make it as far as row 38 either. They played a new song (it was even more Detective Conan-like than their previous Conan songs; Gane fans may be divided on it). I thought the old guy might be an M, but Yurippe and I both thought he definitely wasn’t an M size. Mochi was even smaller than Azuki. Everyone was wearing their necklaces however they felt like. Kurose was cutting his T-shirt to pieces. At the end of Spiral, Mochi fiddled with the old guy’s keyboard just a little.

Wasn’t it just a normal dress? Was her figure really emphasized that much?

That wasn’t a paper airplane at all. It was heart-shaped Styrofoam, huh? Man, I’m jealous of the people in the front rows.

Taking binoculars just in case turned out to be the right call. I was in the second-floor seats and everyone around me was quiet, so I left the clapping and stuff to my companion and spent most of the time looking through my binoculars. I zoomed in as far as 12x and gazed intently, right down to the sweat dripping down Yurippe’s slender neck. The tears welling up in her big eyes during 夢みたあとで were absolutely beautiful. For the record, I’m not a pervert.

Next up is finally Budokan. Yurippe might cry again.

>821 You’re definitely a pervert.

Do they give you glow sticks? Or do you bring your own?

I opened the Mini Cro CD to listen to it and there was a photo of a newlywed couple inside!! >824 They give them to you lol If you bring your own, you’ll embarrass yourself like crazy lol

Are the glow sticks red? For 世界は回るというけれど, I’d prefer blue. If they’re red, it’ll make me think of a sea of death.

I think you should lurk for six months. Read the last line of >804.

>827 Oh, so some customer just brought a red glow stick themselves.

Then I’ll make mine a Johnny’s-only glow stick.

At first, when Yurippe was wearing the glittery gold outfit, I thought maybe she’d gotten a little fuller. But after seeing her in the outfit she changed into for Mini Cro, and in the red T-shirt she wore after the encore, she looked like the same slender Yurippe as always.

Fan Club membership applications now being accepted!! The number of members has increased by 100,000 in four months lol New members are currently getting numbers in the 630,000s and up.

Yurippe is gold-colored? Is that because of the Olympics?

Her hometown is mass-producing gold medals, after all!

It can’t be helped that 恋のあいまに is better as Mini Cro.

The opening song choice was unexpected, but it was good.

Where can I get yesterday’s version of RainySoul?

>816 There was basically no sound resembling a cheer during Mini Cro. The only time people went “Ooh~” was when they said, “We’re going to sing らいらい.” It was quiet for all the other songs.

>834 There was someone near me singing the whole thing at full volume, which was seriously irritating, even though it was a quiet song. They were belting out pretty much every ballad too. I didn’t come here to listen to you sing. Have there always been a lot of people like that?

Sorry, I’m new here, but what is Mini Cro?

It means mini croissants.

It means Yurippe’s “Minimum Clothes.”

It’s what they call a small Uniqlo store—a mini Uniqlo, hence Mini Cro. It’s been getting attention in the Kanto area lately as an ekinaka business.

>839 It’s Mini GARNET CROW (MINIQLO for short), formed by Yuri Nakamura and Hitoshi Okamoto for a segment exclusive to the live shows.

When I searched Yahoo for “garnet crow ミニクロ,” it asked me, “Did you mean ‘garnet crow ユニクロ’?”

I hope Mini Cro’s formation doesn’t become the spark that eventually causes GARNET CROW to split up and disband.

It started when Okamocchi and Yurippe went around doing promo events and performed an acoustic live with just the two of them. It was very well received, so they started doing an acoustic performance by the two of them in the middle of the live shows too. Yurippe also does singing while playing. That’s Mini Cro, and they even released a CD limited to the live venues.

Are Yurippe and Nana-sama really like that these days? I was thinking Yurippe should try talking to Nana-sama more.

Even if she talks to her, when the response is like that... If I were Yurippe, I wouldn’t want to talk to her much either.

I like the regular edition cover of the new single better.

If Mini Cro is going to do four songs, I wish they’d just perform four songs normally.

>851 If only your ID had been 3296, it would’ve been Mini Cro.

>849 Same. The first-run edition is way too dark...

Then please buy both.

The bonus DVD with the first-run edition is As the Dew, right? I don’t need that.

Isn’t it the over drive PV?

The lottery got me around row 16 from the front at Sapporo. Not sure whether that’s good luck or bad luck.

>849 飛行船 is nice.

The backstage segment was seriously moving...

>858 Details, please.

>858 More details, please.

>858 Just the gist.

Yesterday I was in row 20 on Nana-san’s side, and it was surprisingly easy to see. Also, the timing for the Spiral jump is hard... (There was an energetic fujoshi diagonally in front of me, so I watched her to time my jump.)

>862 How did you know she was a fujoshi? Was she saying something like, “Mochi × old guy is the best!”?

The dressing room at Budokan is waiting for me.

Your seat matters, but the reactions of the people around you can change how you feel about the live too. There was a middle-aged-looking couple near me, and the husband in particular was really into it, which made me have a lot more fun too. I’ve gone to the live every year since Towa Bare, but this one was easily in my top two. The 10th-anniversary headphones are colored like a Char’s Zaku. As a Gane fan I want them, but I wonder how they perform as headphones. Are they worth one Yukichi—10,000 yen? I’d buy them if they sounded about as good as my current AKG K240S. Also, I’m the one who farted at the merch booth. I’m very sorry.

The official site updated, but it’s all stuff we’ve already seen.

I was surprised they put 雨上がりのブルー in the setlist this time. Maybe they included it because it’s upbeat and easy for the general public to get into.

I love Nana――――!! I wanna do Nana (;´д｀)ﾊｧﾊｧ

Come to think of it, can the members even get back to Osaka?

But the fan-club-only site is kind of pointless. The official site updates faster than the fan club, apparently.

For the first-run edition, I wish they’d make the jacket reversible, so you could choose between the regular and first-run edition packaging.

Kamadoya president arrested by Hyogo police for drunk driving On the 22nd, Nada Police Station of the Hyogo Prefectural Police arrested the president of major takeout bento chain Honke Kamadoya, Hirochika Kim, 64, of Shinohara Kitamachi, Nada Ward, Kobe, on the spot for violating the Road Traffic Act by driving under the influence. According to the investigation, Kim allegedly drove a passenger car while intoxicated on a road in Yawata-cho, Nada Ward, at around 10:40 p.m. on the 22nd. They reportedly detected 0.6 milligrams of alcohol per liter of breath. Honke Kamadoya’s general affairs department said, “We can’t comment because we haven’t confirmed the facts.” ttp://www.47news.jp/CN/200810/CN2008102301000420.html >Suspect Hirochika Kim, 64, of Shinohara Kitamachi, Nada Ward, Kobe Asahi Shimbun ttp://www.asahi.com/kansai/news/OSK200810230051.html >Suspect Hirochika Kanahira, 64, of 2-chome Shinohara Kitamachi, Nada Ward, Kobe

>863 I laughed despite myself.

>855 The mobile official site says: □ First-run limited edition (JK) [CD+DVD] “Detective Conan” back-cover design DVD: “As the Dew” music clip Director’s Cut ver. included GZCA-7155 ¥1,260 (tax included) I’m not really sure what “director’s cut” means, though.

>874 Seriously? Don’t need it.

I went to a live show for the first time in ages, and it felt like there were a lot more older people than before. Was there some tie-in that would’ve reached people in that age group...? While I’m here, I have a basic question: the best-of album says it was “remastered,” but what exactly does that involve? Even as a layperson, I can’t really hear much difference...

Each album has different volume levels and balance, so they smooth out the whole thing, kind of like sanding it down.

Long ago, まぼろし was the theme song for Shin Kasouken no Onna. Long ago, 籟・来・也 was the image song for the Mystery Special: Amazon, the Remote Region. Otherwise, maybe they watch Conan too? They watched it because their grandkid got them into it, and then started finding it interesting—that kind of thing, maybe.

Seeing the two happy-looking people in the Mini Cro inner jacket warms my heart (^ｇ^)

>876 Last year, some Utamaru radio show did a “Detective Conan for Adults” special, and the people in their sixties had the biggest reaction lol

I’ve listened to the Over Drive recording from yesterday several times, but it’s still kind of iffy. Also, I feel like the vocals were too loud yesterday. My ears were ringing.

>881 Are you even allowed to record?

Probably not.

http://brunhild.sakura.ne.jp/up/src/up432861.jpg My personal five-point single ratings list. You could say the quality dropped considerably after 晴れ時計. Around the same time, the jacket and merch designs also started getting dark and funeral-like. Where did the refreshing feel from the Spiral days go?

>881 Please upload it to Ono or somewhere.

Recording is forbidden, you scum.

>884 You’ve got 千以上 and クリゲ rated a 2? Give me a break.

>876 Yeah, seriously. There were people who looked genuinely elderly, not just middle-aged men and women. And not just one or two—several groups of them... What kind of fans are they?

>884 “The quality dropped”? That’s just your personal taste...

The less people know, the more they want to assert their opinions.

>888 Yurippe’s singing doesn’t just reach young people; it touches people of every age and gender. Probably.

Ms. Yuri photographs really well. Up close, she looked like an ordinary person.

During Gane’s ten years since debut, the fans went from being in their forties to being in their fifties, so of course there are more old people, right?

The generation with one foot in the grave, already thinking of using it as a funeral song.

Apparently there are quite a lot of parent-and-child fans.

This week is a special week in addition to the regular broadcasts!! 3/1 (Mon) HEY!HEY!HEY! 3/2 (Tue) Utaban 3/5 (Fri) Music Station

>892 I think she’s way cuter in person. It’s not so much that she photographs badly... she looks terrible on video.

Windows Media Player’s track info is totally useless. Disc 1 brought up the info for the previous Best album, and the one I found by searching had full-width alphanumerics lol Disc 2 finally showed up, but then the song titles had their tie-in information attached lol

Yurippe’s brown hair in this pamphlet is way too intense. She seriously looks like a delinquent now...

I impulsively bought a ticket and went to my first live yesterday. Her diction was so unclear that, apart from the songs I already knew, I had absolutely no idea what she was singing. I was in the second-floor seats, but it was comfortable being able to watch while seated the whole time. The venue was so big that I wondered if there weren’t many fans, but it was strangely impressive how well-trained everyone was at the timing for raising their glow sticks.

Is the piano performance in MINIQLO also Yurippe? (Was it Nana-san only for that part?) There’s nothing about it in the booklet...

When all’s said and done, there were quite a lot of people there yesterday. And having fans of all ages and genders is the kind of broad popularity you’d expect from Mr. Children.

>900 Even people who’ve been fans for a long time have trouble making out the lyrics. I haven’t bought the best-of either, so I hadn’t really heard As the Dew much, and I could barely make out the lyrics to that or the new song Over Drive. As for the glow sticks, the bag told you which songs to take them out for. It’d be pretty unusual for someone to come to a live without knowing the songs, anyway.

>900 One of the flyers they handed out at the entrance said, “Use it during holy ground!”

I do think the fanbase is gradually growing. This is just my guess, but the members perform live as support musicians for other artists too. That probably gets people interested in GARNET as well. Probably...

Sorry, I looked again just now, and there really were instructions for the glow sticks.

Well, I’m a Conan fan myself, so I was happy to hear all kinds of songs. I did buy the best-of, but I guess I hadn’t studied up enough beforehand. Next time I’d like to hear them in a smaller venue.

Watching the guy in the cowboy hat keep happily drumming away forever, I started feeling like I desperately wanted to punch him for some reason. There were even parts where the other members were staring at the drums like, “How long are you going to keep drumming?”...

Come to think of it, the thing that made me realize the fanbase includes people of every age and gender was when a dandy gentleman won the lottery at the fan appreciation live... I wonder what that guy does for a living... He was way too stylish.

>908 Yesterday, every time Yurippe bowed, I found myself wondering about Kurose’s gaze behind her. (・ω・｀；)

The volume has been adjusted for every song on at the crest. Why is nobody mentioning that? Don’t people ever compare the same songs by listening to them side by side?

I was in row 45 on the first floor, and since there was no screen, I couldn’t even see Yurippe’s face.

>908 If he stopped that pounding, they could sing one more song.

>911 Someone did mention it. http://anchorage.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/musicjg/1264685288/803

Who were the people who came in through the Being-related personnel entrance? Writers for mfm or something? Saida?

>915 Maybe they were invited backstage or something? I don’t even know where the personnel entrance was, to begin with.

Also, the guy dancing in the front row was probably from Kansai. He had that uniquely provincial kind of tackiness.

Christianity’s position in Japan Korean-linked... criminal groups whose goal is rape and fraud Western... hysterical child-porn crazies who claim to be righteous and aggressively impose their values Both show strong tendencies toward being cults or fascists. They’re trying to infiltrate positions of power and expand their influence.

>916 The personnel entrance was right out in the open in the main passage between Halls A and B. So the members probably came in pretty early to avoid running into fans.

I wonder if someone will put photos from this show up on Yahoo Auctions.

*1*1*1*1→*1 14,496 Well, I guess that’s about what you’d expect... It’s a long-awaited release and the song is godly, so I expect the cumulative sales to keep growing.

Can’t we just leave out the best-of track list now?

So we’re supposed to paste this template into the next thread, right?

The best-of became available for rental yesterday, but did anyone find a store that had Disc 3 in stock?

Was that pillar-like stage lighting rig broken?

Why doesn’t Mochi just propose at the 10th-anniversary live?

>865 The fart at the merch booth actually became a topic? lol

When I put Mini Cro into iTunes, the composer was listed as azuki nana / Yuri Nakamura lol Azuki didn’t compose it! Who uploaded such sloppy information?

I found it in the Western music section at a nearby Bunkyodo and laughed my ass off.

>931 That’s obviously Sakai-san.

Personally, Mini Cro trying to promote the two of them by borrowing the GARNET name makes no sense to me. If Gane made it this far thanks to Nana-san and Furui-san, then if they’re going to be put in such an insignificant position, maybe they should announce that they’re leaving.

GARNET CROW http://b.pic.to/18j7dj

Aside from Montevi, were there any other groups under GIZA that made a separate group within the band?

Nana’s cute, and I wish she’d work as a solo talent. That’d definitely be better than playing an instrument off to the side where nobody notices... I’m happy as long as I get to see Nana!

>934 Isn’t that making it a bit too dramatic? The acoustic segment was well received, so they probably just thought, “Let’s make some merch and earn a little money.” I do get the feeling that Hitoshi Okamoto has been coming to the front more lately, though.

>936 Not GIZA, but there’s Matsumoto’s TMG.

Yurippe no longer gets nervous onstage, and her live singing has improved too. Nana and the old guy... they usually stay out of the spotlight, so I’m not sure about them, but the one who seems to have changed the most compared with ten years ago is definitely Mocchi... Honestly, when they debuted, I was like, “Why is Mocchi in this lineup?” Now I can’t imagine it without him. Maybe being a radio personality helped?

I wonder if the Budokan rumor is true. But judging by yesterday’s turnout, if they did a one-off special live during a time when it’s easy to draw a crowd, it doesn’t actually seem impossible.

>935 “Something’s going to happen during the single release week?” What does that mean! Hey, what does it mean!!

>942 The hook on the shoulder-baring Yurippe in the pamphlet comes undone.

Check the official site more diligently, guys(´･∀･`)

>942 Maybe Mini Cro will perform “Over Drive” on the movie’s opening day?

Written コマメ, read 小豆.

You mean the rumor that they’re doing a Halloween live at Budokan again this year?

>896 What kind of special will GC have?

I dunno... Around the time rumors about Over Drive started appearing on Chinese sites, I saw all kinds of blog rumors about Golden Week, summer vacation, and so on.

TV appearances would be good.

I’m sure they’ll announce the Budokan live information on 4/1.

They’re doing way too many live shows.

Seriously? GARNET couldn’t fill Budokan lol They could make it work if they turned the entire arena seating area into the stage. More importantly, I wonder who’ll be at the National Stadium this year.

Because it’s the final live.

STOP IT!!

Don’t be so negative lol Look on the bright side lol

True... GARNET’s sales are bad, and the company’s financial situation is pretty bad too. Buying merch is just a drop in the bucket lol

When should I go buy merch? Should I get there early and line up before the show, as expected...?

You can probably buy it without lining up lol

>958 There was plenty of merch for the Tokyo crowd. Some people even bought two Mini Cro CDs, and there was still stock after the show. If you’re worried about your train home, just buy it beforehand.

It’s March already starting tomorrow lol I go to a live every month, but I have nothing planned for June. This month’s live is GARNET CROW.

>958 Of course, after the show.

Some items will sell out after the show, so buy them before it ends.

The best time is after the doors open.

Well, I lined up for the advance sales myself lol For yesterday, I think the timing >964 mentioned was the best. There’s no telling how much merch they’ve brought to the other venues, (and since the Tokyo Being office probably handles the merch, Tokyo may have had more stock), so if there’s something you absolutely want, line up for the advance sales.

>942 Announcement of the new song.

>958 There’s no better timing than getting in line early.

If you go to the venue, will there be a merch line? Would going around 2 or 3 be stupid? It’s my first time, so I don’t know anything...

I can’t go to the live, so I at least want to go buy merch. Do they do advance sales nationwide?

There was a line for the advance sales, but after a while it was totally free and easy.

Just go at door time and you’ll be fine.

Yesterday I got there around 5:05, entered at 5:20, and bought merch at 5:30.

>934 Maybe people are actually being considerate of Nana and not making her do anything. If she got busy and stressed, she seems like she might quit. Even Yurippe seems stressed from being so busy lately lol

Apparently some people couldn’t get Mini Cro either. So yeah, if you really want it, it might be better to go early.

Apparently the Nora-style charm sold out first. There was still Mini Cro stock right after the show.

>968 That’s not stupid! Apparently Johnny’s concerts sell out if you don’t buy early. At dome shows, you have to wait six hours.

I thought Mini Cro’s arrangements only used acoustic guitar and piano, but they’ve got bass, strings, and drums in there too?

>977 That surprised me too. I wanted it to feel a little more like Mini Cro.

>977 I thought so too. If they’re going to do it, I wish they’d commit more fully to the acoustic sound. As it is, it just feels like one of the arrangements on a B-side.

They’ve been chosen as the main character for the 41st Spring High Volleyball tournament!!

Nana’s the kind of person who wants to be asleep by 8, so every live must be tough for her. She looked sleepy during the second half yesterday too.

I wish they’d done two days in Tokyo.

Hmm... The doors open at 6, but if I get there before 5, it sounds like I should be totally fine? The Nora charm was 3,000 yen, right? It sold that well? ^^;

Did the backstage lottery winners get to meet the members? Did they get to talk to them?

Nakahara Sunako is buying up all the Gane merch lol

>984 Come to think of it, nobody’s reported anything on mixi either. There was just one weird person making a scene.

Ballads like 明日の記憶 are nice too, but I felt that upbeat songs suit Arashi better after all. By the way, apparently the hidden track on the best-of is called “Attack it”!

I watched the PV for “Troublemaker,” but everyone looked exhausted... They were probably filming late at night because work was so busy. Can’t be helped. I applied for Aiba-kun’s stage show lol

>988 Did you watch 特上カバチ!!?

I always watch it! I like Tamura’s passionate side lol

Could Osaka possibly be sold out?

It’s pretty funny, right? 特上カバチ!!

忘れ咲き

I should’ve bought a ticket for Osaka.

Is 特上カバチ some kind of food?

Before I knew it, it felt nostalgic.

On Friday I watch Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge. On Saturday I watch Left-Eye Detective EYE. On Sunday I watch 特上カバチ!! Arashi will be on Utaban on 3/2 and Music Station on 3/5, so don’t miss them lol

Trying coming to the roof tiles, for instance.

Trying stacking roof tiles, for instance.

If this makes 1,000, I can go to Osaka.
