King・Kinki Kids 12/31 Tokyo DOME
ARENA SEATS! It was the best ever! I actually had eyecontact with Tsuyoshi! Even if he doesn't remember or whatever, his gaze is so strong!!
★ At the beginning while they were moving from the center stage to the main stage with the trucks, Koichi was quite fast compared to Tsuyoshi, so in order to make it to the stage together, Koichi stopped in the midway, waiting for Tsuyoshi. After the song ended and they made it to the stage; Koichi said that the happening was right from the beginning. Apparently a manjuu was stuck to where Tsuyoshi was so he couldn't keep on moving. Koichi asks who it was and Tsuyoshi contunies to complain that there were like 5-6 of manjuus together. Koichi asks again who it was that dropped it and Tsuyoshi says "Please be careful with the things you drop." And because it was still in the middle of songs,
K: "We didn't mean to talk at this part..." (a sudden MC! haha )But it was where they introduced themselves
K: This is Domoto Koichi who is 32 years old for just few more hours as the year ends (something like that ...)
T: You're all so cute.
And while everyone goes Kyaaaaa, Koichi has this no way! expression
K: That's definitely a lie.
But Tsuyoshi doesn't change his expression, shaking his head and asks us for how deep we can fall for him and says he's Domoto Tsuyoshi.
Everyone is kya~~~ing but Koichi is not impressed at all.
"You definitely don't think that."
T: "What do you think of this character?"
The response was ofcourse, positive from the fans.
★ Tsuyoshi was still using the Phi case.
★ K: All those people at the very top, we can see you too.
T: That's kind of impossible
Then Koichi protests,
K: Actually when you're at this age, you can see far ahead better than the close. ( pointing to the fans at 2nd floor and then the arena seats.)
T: (laughs) Hyper Grandpa. Hyper Grandpa Koichi-san.
K: I can see right down to the facial features to the people at the most back. Like your nose is around this place, right?
T: It's the same for everyone!
★ K: A while ago too, the first day of Dome...
T: Yesterday?
K: Eh? It was yesterday?
T: You're super hyper Grandpa...
hahah Koichi was saying it as if the first day of the Dome Concerts started few days ago but it was just yesterday. To him it seemed longer and Tsuyoshi just can't believe him.
★ Tsuyoshi wore the King Kinki Kids Parka again for the MC.
T: You guys never saw Koichi in this Parka right?
Audience; we didn't!
T: You want him to wear it don't you
A: Ye~s
Then Koichi finally gives in and decides to wear it too. But he can't find his parka and he's looking around for it. Then someone from backstage hands him the parka and he looks at it.
★ Koichi takes his time putting the parka on, turning it over and over and over and he just can't seem to find where he can put his arms in. He struggles a lot but eventually manages to put it on. He then pulls the zipper way up high and closes most his face with the head part so that only his nose and mouth is visible. Then Tsuyoshi mentions eye-man so Koichi makes it that so only his left eye is visible. hahaha.
★ Then they advertise the parka like they did the day before,
T: When you put on this parka, even if you're a grandpa or grandma, or a foreigner, you become Kids! (beause the chest part says Kids and the hood says KinKi)
★ It seems everyone is really into it because it's so warm. Dancers, Yara, Machida, Yone and everyone is wearing the parka all the time so Koichi is like LOL. about it because everyone was wearing the parka during the rehearsals and he thought he mistook the place and came to EXILE's rehearsal instead. ( the problem with it is that it's quite huge but I tried the one my friend bought and it was kind of tight, so I didn't buy it. )
★ K: oh! speaking of Exile.
T: I got it ne. At the Super Live, you became EXILE for a moment ne.
K: I did ne.
T: During Mste, I was about to go out from the dressing room but at that moment EXILE-niisan (older brothers) ne,
eh why am I calling them niisan. Anyway, EXILE ne, they were walking down the corridor so I decided to wait and go out after they all go and kept waiting but they kept coming and coming and the EXILE line didn't stop at all! Inside the EXILE line, Koichi was walking with them. For a moment he was inside the EXILE but he realized it quickly and came back.
★ Then Koichi says he thought it was wrong, because he's not that dark skinned and Tsuyoshi says he's quite fair skinned. Then they do the monomane to EXILE dance and they're really good.
★ During M-ste, Leader was quite a fan of GAGAsama. They make fun of him saying that they wanted to see Leader make Lady Gaga laugh because that would be so cool but Leader got all nervous because he's a fan. Then they say it was probably because he kept staring at her butt.
★ At Countdown rehearsals to Koichis room, Uekusa-san came over. And then Nagase popped up from the door and just like that they started talkin about fishing in his room and Koichi couldn't follow it at all.
K: Is this how people feel when I talk about F1?
It was really cute because it seems that Koichi only realized it then how people felt when he talks about cars and such. Then Tsuyoshi says that the fans are different because they want to learn about what Koichi likes because they like him. It was really cute.
★ Oh, I forgot so adding it right here. Since Koichi was wearing the parka in the Mc, he suddenly puts his hands in the pockets and takes out these gloves that are quite tough looking. Tsuyoshi is like hold on a second! And Koichi looks sheepish. It's obviously not Koichis parka.
T: Were you working on doing the set earlier? (because it was gloves for staff possibly seeting the stage) Koichi puts the gloves back but he can't rest easy so he keeps playing with his pocket and the gloves. After the MC ends, he was going back to give the parka and hands it to someone with a laugh saying "It was yours?!" but I don't know who.
★ Another Countdown story with Shonentai this time! Koichi was at the backstage before the rehearsals started and he hears staff saying that the rehearsals are about the start and Higashiyama-san is already there. IT was surprising to him because like, he was there so early! haha. Well he goes there and sees Shounentai in the middle of a meeting. He stands back and watches because he thinks it's really cool, his senpai are doing a meeting.
Uekusa-san and Higashiyama has a fight and Uekusa-san is like, "I definitely won't do what Higashi arranged!" And Tsuyoshi talks to him like Higashiyama-san has his own thoughts and tries to soothe down the mood. Their monomane was hilarious!
★ Another airport story! While coming back from LA, I think, Koichi doesn't have any problems until he's about the board the plane but then someone stops him asking him to come to the back to check his luggage. He says Okay and goes with them to this room. They ask him if it's OK to check him and he's like, sure sure. They tell him they're going to search him and stuff. Tsuyoshi is all skeptical about it. They touch his body to check it and then they're like, Ok. and Koichi is ???okay. They ask him if it's alright if they check his bag, and do a very light search for that too and he goes ???okay again. Then they let him go. Tsuyoshi says it was probably just that they wanted to touch Koichi.
★ Kiken na kankei, the song meaning is Dangerous Relation. The song is about two guys.
K: When we say two guys, I bet you all think that but it's not a homo relationship or anything like that!
It seems that the song was written with KinKi's image, for them. fjdsklafjakldsfasdfka!! Please listen to it again and pay attention to the lyrics ahah. It seems like someone wrote a KinKi Kids fanfic and made them sing it. It's just perfect.
There's a good translation here. Well after Koichi said that it was between two men , everyone got all excited and they were like, tch, you fans. Because we went Foo~ Koichi pretended to be hard gay and made Tsuyoshi laugh.
T: Wait a second , do you understand the difference between homo and hard gay?
K: I don't ★ (laughs)
It was really cute!
★ We sang Motto Motto together with KinKi Kids again.
★ At the ending greetings
K: Well, then, let's start with CO2.
Hall: *silent because no one understands who that is supposed to be.
K: I tried saying it from the back. CO2.
T: It'll come up later as tags in twitter and the internet ne...
( Shi-o-tsu → Tsuyoshi )
↑ Fans actually made that tag in the end haha.
★K: Nke-san.
(he got really into introducing people from the backwards.
He introduced Ken san that way too and Ken-san was waving and holding hands with the female guitarist as they ran away, taking one of the silver tapes and waving it around.
T: Children...
★ K: It was Mou-yu!
4u: *falls down!*
Kinki both acts surprised wondering if they got the name wrong. 4U keeps desperately trying to get KinKi to introduce them right.
T: It was So-yu.
This time 4U falls down again and Koichi joins them as well as MA, throwing the gold tapes on the stage and playing around in them while shouting it's a treasure, it's a treasure!
When they all seperate because Tsuyoshi is looking at them like he's the mother of 8 hyper kids, Tatsumi is holding a lot of gold tapes in his hand and looking innocent.
T: Tatsumi are you stealing the treasures?
He still looks innocent, silver tapes coming out of his pockets.
Then KinKi tells him to put it back because they're going to use them in the next concert too. Since it's Eco recently, they don't want to waste it hahahah.
★ After they properly introduce 4 U,
K: Hanayone-san!
Yone ♥ He doesn't protest or does anything, accepting the introduction as it is. fdakfag he was so cute. He wasn't bothered by it at all fdsjkfla.
K: Tamachi-san! Damachi-san!
Machida comes out saying Yes! I'm Tamachi! all proudly and Tsuyoshi laughs.
T: what's that, "Yes!I'm Tamachi!". You're not. (laughs)
K: Raya-san!
Yaracchiiiiiiiiiiiiii dfjslafjalf. ♥
★ T: We were...Zukki...Zzuki...
Tsuyoshi tries to say KinKi Kids from backwards but Koichi cuts him off because it's troublesome.
K: It was KinKi Kids!
hahahahaha.
Because I was at the arena seats this time, I actually didn't pay any attention to KinKi when MA was on stage hehe. Everyone was facing behind me and I was staring at the main stage trying to spot my boys! At the beginning, Machida danced slightly close to me, I tried to make eyecontact or get his attention but he was busy dancing (obviously) so I gave up.
★ During Family, the first spot light is on Tatsumi doing all these ballet dances. After him is a girl, and then Yonehana on one of the K's!
★ I love the dance part where Tsuyoshi and MA dances together. It's really really really cool. And after them Domoto Laser-san made an appearance.
★ At the guitar show part, MA and 4U drop on their knees and do these dance moves of worshipping them and stuff. Yara and Yone were playing around a bit while doing it, it was really cute.
★ During the song with MA and 4U wearing colored shirts, someone carries Yara on their back, and Yara moves his legs up and throws them around hahaha. I'm guessing it was probably Matsuzaki but I can't be sure.
★ Seriously a lot of stuff has been going on so I didn't know who to focus on, haha. In the end I kept watching Yaracchi dance. KinKi played around with kohai again and I think it was this time that Koichi kicked Matsuzaki in the chest (if I remember right) haha.
If I keep writing this report is never going to end so I'll end it now. I laughed a lot when Koichi was singing in the balloon at the encore because of how he bends over when he is at the highnotes, I was right under him so I got a good look at his butt hahahaa.
