We had two lives on Saturday! It was our second day of performances since joining the group.
Although Seishun Gakuen had lives on both Saturday and Sunday, we couldn’t make the ones on Sunday because of other plans. (´・ω・｀)
Our first live of the day was at Akihabara TWINBOX, and we needed to be at the venue for 11:35am, so it was a (pleasantly) late start to the day after a late night of group practice and then extra prep on our part the night before. We had a 15min set with no rehearsal because of the nature of the live (group after group) makes it a bit difficult.

We still don’t have lots of the choreography down, so we were only on stage for the MC and last song, Kaihou, but it was lots of fun! We weren’t able to get the crowd into the performance too much though, so everyone was upset at themselves and frustrated once we got back to the greenroom. (´・ω・｀) We couldn’t see since we were off stage for most of the time, but it seemed great as usual, so we wonder what went wrong...
Sally lost one earring during the live, too! Probably flew off her ear during Kaihou...
Buppan (goods selling time) was fun too! We had our American friend come take cheki with us and buy all the CDs that were on sale then for us since we still didn’t have any of them... (´；ω；｀)♡ Much much thanks!! We also had a Polish friend of his come and see us for the first time!! All the girls were interested in his nose... w We also had one Japanese fan reserve a ticket (yoyaku) for the live under our name, and he came to take cheki with Ally! We could see him well from the stage when we went on~
During buppan, Sally has been trying really hard to memorize everyone’s names since we also have a free handshake time and goodbye high-five time as well! She’s memorized faces, but not names yet... (´；ω；｀) It’s tough.
Shortly after that, we all took the train while still half in our stage outfits for the next live since the greenroom is very small and there was going to be a bunch of other groups there as well.
We had a few hours to kill so we all went to Italian restaurant Saizeriya and killed some time! We reviewed our thoughts on the last live and buppan, and we scolded a bit by the leader and (semi) leader for a few things like time management and cheki-taking. It’s always well-noted, but everyone was quite sleepy and ended up napping a bit too...
The next live was at Shibuya AUBE, and was a special birthday performance for a member of idol group Zenryoku Shoujo R! Chubbiness was also there and they were quite polite to us backstage~ ♡ We got there around 18:00, just shortly after doors had opened. We all tried squeezing backstage, but couldn’t find all of us with our stuff so most of us left it out in the audience area under supervision of staff... (；´∀｀) Everyone tried to fix themselves up after the last live, but with the lack of space just to stand, it was a bit of an issue...
Our set was 30mins, so quite longer than the usual! Everyone was quite nervous about it.
It was our first time doing Tasukirire and Kimi ga Kureta Omoi, so we were super nervous that we were going to trip someone on our dresses or go the wrong way! We both also had mics so we were nervous about messing up the lyrics... Although we messed up a few times, it went quite well considering everything! We still are no good at dancing, but hopefully we should get better with time and practice.
During Tegami., (semi) leader Yuu’s dress strap completely broke so she had to run backstage quickly despite being one of the center members for the song! She quickly fixed it with hairpins since there were no safety pins around and she jumped back on stage shortly after...! Luckily it help for the rest of the set!! We thought it was so cool of her~ ☆ We didn’t hear anything about it after that so maybe no one noticed too much?
After our set was up and everyone went back to the greenroom, everything changed though and we were really surprised. One member started to have a panic attack or something and we were really worried she was going to collapse... Maybe she has a sickness she’s hiding from the other members? Another member started crying but blamed it on being hot... We were really concerned by everyone’s sudden change of emotions. We’re sure the 30 min set was grueling physically, but it made us very concerned for our fellow members. No one said anything about it at all, but we’re still very unsure what it was about... (；´Д｀)
Sally also lost her other earring, but it was found on stage by one of the Zenryoku Shoujo R members!
After that we had buppan! Everyone tried really hard to push our group and we had a steady amount of people the whole time. Didn’t have many cheki ourselves but it’s not too surprising... (´・ω・｀)
After that we quickly changed and gathered our things and head off in different ways!!
It was a difficult day, but very fun and rewarding.
And this happens twice a week at least!! It definitely takes a lot of time and effort...
Our next performance is on the 18th, but the group has lives on the 18th, 19th, and 20th. We still need to focus on learning more on our own, so we’re not sure if we can do the other days, but we need to work hard this week!
