Did I get here too early? I'm in the dressing room all by myself.

That was fun, yo
It may have seemed cheesy, but we put a lot of thought into it and did everything by hand, down to the set up and tear down of the venue so that everyone would come and say they enjoyed themselves...
It was really fun
Thank you

真(SIN)-LOKA- ‏@sin_guitar:
前にINKTのKeiさんに教えて貰ったチーズキムチチャーハン作ってみた(*´ω｀*)
レコーディング中で時間無いしめんどいからこのまま台所で食べるけど許せ
I tried making the cheese kimchi fried rice that INKT's Kei san showed me the other day (*´ω｀*)
There's no time to eat during recording and it's a hassle, so forgive me but I'm just gonna eat it like this in the kitchen

Nov 8, 2015 8:56 p.m.
Hey, it's ♪SASSY, who thought the 3 hr fan meeting passed by in a blink of the eye!!
We wanted to feel closer to Team INKT, who have been cheering for us, and the focus of this fan meeting was to show you our feelings of gratitude!
Everytime we got together, we had discussions and worked on making things to get ready for this day
(Of course the INKT Staff and our boss also joined in)
We approached it as if we were getting ready for a school festival, and each step of the way was fun!

Today during INKT fan meeting they showed a long video of the journey on Anime Friends in Brazil. Here is a report for the foreign fans, especially those who went to Anime Friends in Brazil because I think they really enjoyed their trip. The said that the video clips are picked by each members and all together they vote on which goes into the video and which doesn't. Surprisingly they all agreed on all videos that picked by each member.
[VIDEO first half]
kissy was talking very quietly on the plane while everyone was sleeping(it was very dark) and since he talked very quietly, no one knew what he was talking about(they were commentating the video the same time today). The next scene was already in Brazil. Kei said that it was only a couple seconds on the video but in reality it was 30 long hours trip. They showed a clip outside with many people talking. Kei, KOKI and mACKAz was smoking. Next was when they went to a Churrasco restaurant and they went to the kitchen. The chef handed Koki the stick of Churrasco(Koki said it was heavy) and Koki looked sooo happy with big smile while holding it(Koki said he actually had no memory of it cuz he was so tired from the trip. Haha).
Next day they had rehearsal. They said the weather was really bad and it was pouring outside(apparently it was kissy's fault because he is the ameodoko(rain guy)). They were rehearsing(they said the sound was really good and they felt good because it was an outdoor stage) and showed a clip of kissy talking in English with the staff(members were like kissy is so cool that he can talk in English!). Finally the staff was like "okay" in the video and Koki was like "I don't think he understood. That was not okay. LOL" They also said that they had some problems that probably only happened in foreign lives which was interesting. Koki was doing this facial expression of a blow fish(with his mouth) which was super cute and everyone laughed. Koki explained that it was a voice training exercise. They also said it's rare if not the first time they showed how rehearsal looks to the fans.
After rehearsal, they walked around the venue and Koki started to dance with the background music(OMG! He was HOT!). kissy and INKT's manager found a DDR booth and started to dance with the booth staff(they said the staff was so good at it). Koki and mACKAz later joined the dance(again! Koki was sooo good and so hot!! mACKAz was just fooling around.:p).
After the first half of the video, there was a break and they continued to talk about the trip. Kei said to Koki that it has been a long time since seeing you dance (omg..coming from Kei who went on CHAIN tour...I wanted to cry!). Then mACKAz seemed very impressive and said to Koki, "Wow, you were really good!" Kei was like "you were seeing him like that? lol"
They also talked about the room arrangement. Kei said that he never wants to room with Koki again because Koki woke him up brutally(by jumping on Kei's bed as we all have seen on the video that Koki posted :p). mACKAz and kissy had the same room and SASSY was rooming with their manager.
They said that they stayed in a good hotel with pool and gym. The pool was so cold though but kissy said that the pool probably has warm water but they went too early. kissy said the staff came in and started to talk to them in Portuguese and he thinks the staff was saying that you guys are crazy! It's so cold! because the staff was sort of laughing at them. Koki said that every time when he and mACKAz were together, the local people talked to them in Portuguese. LOL
[VIDEO second half]
The day of the show. A couple fans were interviewed while waiting for the Meet & Greet. I think the interview of @_stephbysteph and her friend was captured. They looked very excited and were talking in mix of English and Japanese? The background music was really loud so you can't really hear it. Koki was like "I could only understand "omg" LOL." Last, they said omedetougozaimasu(congratulation!) and Koki was like "it was like a wedding wish video from friends" LOL. They showed the fans who were in line waiting for the Meet & Greet and the fans showed the camera the flag message they made. Koki said "the local fans made it for us. We were really happy to see that." Then there was the clip from the actual Meet & Greet (I think it was @_stephbysteph too. Haha). They said that most fans were actually talking to them in Japanese and they were impressed.
Apparently the staff in Anime Friends rode Segway and they thought it was really cool. In the clip, mACKAz wanted to try it but after he stood up on it and started, he broke the handle. LOL. Then more and more staff came and tried to fix it. LOL. mACKAz explained that actually he was riding on it perfectly until he decided to call everyone to show them how cool it was. Right after they started to film, he broke it. Then in the video, mACKAz said exactly the same thing. LOL. kissy said that he wanted to try too and saw mACKAz was playing with it. When he went toward mACKAz and was about to ask to try next, mACKAz broke it. So he gave up. LOL.
Then backstage before the live, Koki kept making weird noise in the video. He explained that he was annoyed like that every time before the live to get ready(it was adorable, not annoyed at all in my opinion :p). SASSY was practicing the beat on his lap and Kei said he was always serious like that before the live. Kei was jumping around(like what he does on stage).
Finally the live!! They said the live was so hot and the fans were awesome because they were really into it and hyper. There was also a clip with first row fans doing seriously head banging and the members kept saying sugoi!yabai! They also said that they were really happy to see fans were singing along.
The last day they went to a market. Kei kept saying that Koki was like one of them(Brazilians) with his tank top and tattoo LOL. They were walking around and saw a vendor that you can drink fresh coconut milk. Koki said actually it wasn't that good LOL. But in the video he drank and then said it was so good! Twice! LOL. Koki said it is kind of nice that the vendor doesn't speak Japanese LOL(such a liar LOL).
Last in Brazil there was a clip when they were taking picture with the graffiti wall. SASSY said that it was in the middle of a sidewalk and people were passing around. They felt bad and kept saying sorry to stop them from walking while taking it (they gave the picture with their signature as souvenir for the fan meeting at the end).
Then it was in Dubai(where they transferred the flight) and everyone looked so tired. They went outside and they said that it was so hot and humid and you can actually see from the video that it was too hot and humid so the camera got very foggy.
Last it was when they were all sleeping on the plane. Koki was soooooo cute with his head tilted almost uncomfortable angle LOL.
---------------------------
This is the part when they talked about Anime Friends in Brazil. I think they really enjoyed the trip and really appreciated the fans there!! I hope they can go back soon! :)
Sorry for the super long report!

Vivi @limonadagurl:
11/8 INKT fan meeting report part 1.
The fan meeting was held in a conference space in Shinagawa. There were about 30 round tables with about 10 people each table, four tables each row and a stage. The door opens at 1:30pm and people can start to get food and drink. The member set up the tables and prepared everything themselves, including welcome board(drew by Koki), menu board(also drew by Koki), message cards on each table and name tags for each person.
During a period of time Koki appeared and started to help to pull the drink for fans (OMG) and other members also helped out. People started to scream and got super excited. Haha. I was kind of shock that he stopped and left when I was about to get my drink *tears*
The main entrees are recommended by each member. Apparently those are the food they ate during lives by catering. I can't really say for others but I had mACKAz's taco rice and it was bad. LOL. Spaghetti meat ball sauce with rice IS NOT taco rice. I also had doubt on Koki's recommendation because the entree he chose contained eggplant. HE DOESN'T EAT EGGPLANT. LOL. Anyway, not really in the mood of eating at all anyway since we were about to see them soon (to be honest I felt like vomiting from nervousness).
At 3:00pm, Kei showed up on stage and he said he is going to be the MC for today. He then called the members out and each member explained one section of the program today. The fan meeting was divided by four parts. First mACKAz said today's first special feature event is video time. Since it was unlikely anyone from Japan went to the Brazil live with them, they decided to show what it was all about by picking and editing the video themselves.
Second it was kissy and he said even bigger special feature section (and they joked that special feature again? lol) is the Q&A. There will be no NG question so please ask. On each table, there was a paper that we can write our question and we dropped it in a box.
Third was Koki and he said this is the biggest special feature for the fan meeting. Kei was like every single section became special feature. LOL. Koki said that the fans always came to them and they want to give back so now they would like to come to us and have chance to talk to us. Koki also said although you guys came first haha(as we came to the event). He said since there were a lot of table so it would be short but hopefully you would enjoy it. He kept joking that there are 150,000 people today and he couldn't even see the end. LOL. He also said since he was shy and he wouldn't know what to say at all so please start the topic first. Otherwise it would be very awkward and all he would say is "majidesuka?(really?) Ooooh!" when he first meet and talk to people he doesn't know. Kei was like "yeah! you do that a lot!" LOL.
Last SASSY said the last part is the drawing. They each brought their personal stuff to give out to fans and hopefully we will like it.
-----------------
[1. VIDEO]
which I wrote it on my previous post here
https://t.co/TfNzdcv7oD
also just adding another comment Koki made after watching the video. He said his green yellow-ish underwear kept showing at every single clip. Kei was like, "always okay!!!" LOL. And Koki also said now think about it every clip there is mACAKz. LOL. They didn't know why all these clips were agreed to be included. LOL.
And there was also another clip of kissy doing I-forgot-what but they all said it was so boring and kissy was like was this clip even necessary? LOL
[2. Q&A]
Sorry I couldn't remember all of it but I will try to write as much as I could.
They all took turn drawing questions from the box.
Q. What animal do you want to get next?
Since Kei and Koki are the only two members have pets. They answered the question. Koki said to Kei, "eh? you own a pet?" LOL. Kei "rin-chan!! rin-chan!!" They were making fun of Kei that rin-chan doesn't even like him. Kei was like she is the queen!!! That's just her character!! And she is moody!! LOL. However, if Kei get another pet, it would be cat, too.
Koki was like "eh? it's so difficult!!" "but I guess next I want to get a hedgehog! They are so cute and you can even touch their spiny!!" OMG Koki was sooooo cute when he started to talk about animals!!! He looked so happy and just like a little child!
Q. What's the limit of touching them in the concert?
Koki totally laughed at this question with uncomfortable smile. He said the question is weird in terms of this is concert, not a pet zoo (seriously...some crazy fans need to back off!!). It was really nice to see how they answer this question nicely, though. I think Koki was in a position that is difficult to say no to his fans even he doesn't really like it. So he just said that I know in the concert and if you get hyper and that's okay. However, mACKAz was sooo nice(I seriously think he spoke for Koki) and spoke more. He said that during the concert when Koki came to the audience and he needed people to support his hand. That is okay to touch and he needs that support. However, everything else is prohibit. They were joking that if you touch, it costs extra money. LOL. Again, seriously, crazy fans need to STOP touching him crazy during the concert!!!
Q. If members were female, who would you date?
They pointed to the person he wants to date at the same time. When everyone decided who to choose, Koki was still thinking. He was like "eh? you guys are so fast!! I can't imagine cuz you guys are not female!!!" LOL.
SASSY was chosen by Kei and Koki. Kei said SASSY is very yasashii(nice) and Koki started to play with words saying SASSY is yasashi(like funashi the character from Funabashi).
Koki said he couldn't imagine any other member as a girl and SASSY is considered most feminine. Also Koki said SASSY is family-oriented which is nice.
SASSY and kissy chose mACKAz. SASSY said, "mACKAz REALLY is a nice guy!!!" LOL.
mACKAz chose Koki. He said if Koki is a girl, he must be a gyaru(I don't know how to translate the word in English. Japanese girl with blonde hair and lots of makeup? LOL). mACKAz said if he was with Koki, life seems to be adventurous and fun. LOL.
At the end Kei was complaining that nobody chose him and Koki was joking that you didn't get love from your pet nor your group LOL. Kei kept saying "LIKE I SAID, rin-chan is a queen and she is moody!!"
Apparently kissy didn't get picked, either but no one said anything. LOL.
Q. What is the biggest happening this year?
They decided mACKAz breaking Segway in Brazil is the winner. LOL
Q. One male fan didn't really write a question. He wrote a "I love you, Koki" message. LOL. Koki was like...THANK YOU! LOL
Q. If traveling with members, where would you go?
Basically they want to go to places that have good food. They also talked about that they want to go to Okinawa and kissy said he has only been to Okinawa during his graduation trip. They asked the fans to raise their hands if they have never been to Okinawa and many of us haven't. They said Okinawa is one of those places that everyone wants to go but many haven't had the chance. mACKAz said he wants to go to Tokyo. LOL.
Q. How to improve self-confidence and reach the dream?
They were saying that it is rare to have a serious question like that and it was difficult to answer. It is difficult to try to reach your dream but if it is your dream, it should be something you like. However, reaching your dream doesn't mean only do things you like. There will be things you don't like which will help you on the way. Meanwhile, you should gain confidence from it.
Then member asked kissy to say something since he is the most confident one. kissy didn't say much and Koki was like because kissy is only confident with the keyboard in front of him. Without the keyboard, he feels very unsafe. kissy said that's why unconsciously he was one step behind everyone else. LOL.
Q. I like Koki's lyrics a lot. What do the members think?
Koki got so embarrassed and kept saying that it is so weird to hear this from the members. He felt uncomfortable when people praising him especially from the members so they should just skip that question. However, SASSY was so nice(I think maybe he was thinking about the fan who asked the question and might be unfair to her) and said but we don't really get those questions and we don't really have chance to talk about it. I think it's a good opportunity to say. SASSY said that he also really likes Koki's lyrics and his favorite is the one in Fight for Freedom(which sorry I forgot which part). kissy also said he likes the lyrics and thinks the lyrics is artistic. For example, first he was wondering what 45 is and then he realized it's the pistol.
Then Koki got really embarrassed with member complimenting him and just said NEXT! haha.

Sorry I will update the rest tomorrow! Getting long again.

INKT fan meeting part 2.
(You can find the part 1 here. http://tl.gd/n_1snqtgm )
After the Q&A section, the members came to the table one by one. OMG it was so nerve-wracking cuz they were coming to us!!! I was too nervous I even said, "oh no don't come!" out of nowhere when Koki was walking toward our table(I really hope he didn't hear it. LOL).
I am not sure what they talked about in each table so I will just share my table and what I saw.
Koki came first and stood by the table. Since the guy in our table previously got picked for Q&A(the boy said "I love you, Koki!") so he apologized for the message and Koki was like, "don't worry about it!!" There was another foreign girl on the same table and she asked about overseas lives, especially Taiwan since she is from Taiwan. Koki said they have been working a lot on it and many things are not set yet and many things cannot be announced yet but he would like to have more overseas lives. The girl said please come to Taiwan, soon. Koki was like "yes! I would love to go soon as well. But I was a little afraid of the language cuz I don't speak Chinese at all." "Actually many people in Taiwan do speak Japanese so I think you will be fine" Koki, "ooh! really? That's good because I don't like to study." Now think about it I shoulda just say, "hey!!! I came to Japan and study Japanese so hard just for you!! Study other languages for the fans, dude!!!" LOL. Of course that didn't happen. I was too nervous. LOL.
Then the boy said, "but you speak English, right?" Koki became really humble and said, "yes and no. I could understand some but sometimes I still can't understand what foreigners say which frustrated me." I shoulda just say, "I will tutor you!!" LOL. Again, too nervous to say anything.
Last one girl said, "happy birthday" and then we all wished him a happy birthday. OMG. He was just so adorable and so nice!!! With his angel smile and so down-to-earth!!!
When he switched tables especially when he had to switch from far right to far left, he always did this ridiculous run that pretended(or not really pretending. lol) that he lost his speed and sort of fell. Sooooooooooooooo darn cute!
Then Kei came to our table and OMG! He was just purely amazing!!! He crouched down so he could talk to us with the same eye sight instead of talking from above us. He started with calling everyone's name. He didn't just call our names, he even looked at us while doing that instead of just looking at the name tag. OMG I just love how sincere he was and he seems had so much interest in getting to know us. The girl from Taiwan showed the board that foreign fans gather for their anniversary(the one mACKAz posted on his tweet) and Kei was like, "wow!! this is so cool!! thank you so much!!" Kei looked so happy and excited!!
Kei also said that the message card on each table is for us to take back but since there is only one, we had to decide who to take it(our table happened to be Kei's message). He then asked us that because most of fans when they decide things like that, they just cut it(it's like a Japanese fan culture? not sure.). He said, "I understand everyone wants a piece of it but it just seems sad that things are getting cut." So we promised him that we will rock paper scissors to decide the message card. haha.
Next was SASSY. He seemed a little nervous but also very nice. He started to tell us that all the members came early to prepare everything, even setting up the table. One asked about his makeup for the Halloween live and how long it took. SASSY said that it took about an hour because he had to do a white base and then do the black part which took a long time. He said the Halloween live was a lot of fun and he would like to do something like that again next year.
And then we had mACKAz. I LOVE mACKAz. LOL. He was just super hilarious!!! He first was joking with that fan boy and then he kept walking around our table and staring at each of us. LOL. I said to him that I love your new hair cute it is so hot! He was like, "thank you! Everyone told me that, though." LOL. Other people asked him about the melonpan he wrote on the blog and he told us in details where it is and recommended it.
Last we had kissy. I think he was also a little nervous but he was just so cute and bubbly!! We asked him about his nails and he showed his nails on the table. There were some fingers with characters on and he said they are from the game he is into right now. Since he liked it so much, he decided to get nails with the images on(so random. LOL). However, we found some other fingers without the characters and they were just pure manicure which made his fingers glow. LOL. We joked that kissy is so pretty and he is onee(オネェ homosexual). He then joked back talked like a woman. LOL.
We only got 2 min each for each members but I bet it was so much work for them to go around all 30 tables. Some tables are calm and behaved and some tables had crazy fans that didn't really care for questions and just asked for fan services or kept touching them. It was sad cuz they were so nice but those fans just abused that.
After this part, they all went back to stage and Koki drank so much water right after it. He was like at one point I started to wonder if anyone would offer me a drink and no one did!! LOL. Kei was like, "yeah! me too!" LOL. They also said it was really nice chance to talk to us. Koki was like, "each table has different personality. Some are calm, some are crazy, some are old..." LOL.
[Drawing section]
Last part was the drawing section and they each brought their personal stuff to give out. First it was Kei. He had 2 shirts he wore and a cap with all members' signature(they all said it's not fair Kei used that as his present. LOL). The boss(izumi-san) also brought souvenir from his last business trip to give out so 4 item set. By the way, when Kei was folding the shirt, he could fold it while standing perfectly!! We all guessed he must had worked in a apparel store before!
Next it was SASSY and he had the GONER bag, the top head of the drum with his signature and his drum sticks. OMG I really wanted that present!! It was the top head of the drum and drum sticks SASSY has been using and you can even see they were so beaten up. It was such a thoughtful gift. He even wrote the name of the person who won on the top head.
Then kissy was like, "I don't want to be the last one. Could I have my present given now?" LOL. He was like his present was not that good at all. LOL. kissy is from Osaka and so many times during lives he wore baggy shirt with bright colors or tiger print or weird patterns(which is supposedly the grandma fashion in Osaka). He decided to give out three of his grandma shirts. LOL. It was funny cuz the shirts were folded inside a very nice bag but the members kept teasing him that it was just a disguise. Unlike Kei who folded his shirts nicely, kissy pretty much just showed the shirt to the audiences and dumped them back into the bag. LOL. mACKAz kept asking the girl who won the present if she liked it and finally kissy was like, "she SAID she likes it, okay!!" LOL. OMG. I want that present, too though!! Not going to wear it for sure(omg what he was thinking LOL) but seeing him wearing them so much made me believe it was a very personal gift!
mACKAz gave out his dart set. He kept saying that you can do it right away like a television infomercial. LOL. He said that he would love for us to try it now but it would be crazy if someone's really bad and the dart will fly to the audience and hurt people. LOL.
Last was Koki. OMG. When he had his present out, I was about to cry. He pulled out his scratch book and showed us a drawing. He said when he was thinking about the logo, he made a lot of drafts and he would like to give out one of them. HOLY MOLLY IT WAS HIS ORIGINAL DRAFT!!!!!!!!! I can just imagine he was drawing and trying to image what INKT should be like. Koki is soooooooooooooooooo talented!!! It's just amazing that he gave this out as his present. So precious.
[birthday wishes to Koki]
We celebrated his 30th birthday all together by singing him a happy birthday song. Koki was so cute and a little embarrassed but kept smiling!! Such an angel *love*
He was trying so hard to show us the cake but it was too heavy to lift so finally he gave it up. Kei said that he would just post it later.
[Last]
They each said something to thank the fans.
mACKAz "It has been one year since we debuted. It was a long year and we kept running. Now we finally had a chance to express our thanks to you. I hope in the 2nd anniversary, 3rd anniversary and later we can still do something like this. Last I want to say something kakkoii. Please follow us!(ついてこい!)." Fans started to scream and members were laughing really hard. LOL.
kissy "Thank you for coming today at this such bad weather caused by me(LOL). It was really nice talking to all of you and knowing that you came to this event from all different places, some are close and some are far and some are really far. I was thinking, wow..those people are the one who support us the most. I am very thankful. We started last year and we will work even harder next year..uh...this year? now?(LOL)..anyway.. we will work harder and improve more. Please continue to support us."
Koki "Again, thank you so much for coming today at this bad weather(it was actually a phrase in Japanese literally means made you difficult to walk because of the bad weather and members kept saying this phrase the whole day and Koki was like how difficult for them to walk! So now he was playing with the phrase again. LOL) and celebrate my 30th birthday. It has been a year since we came out as a group. It was also during a period that I thought a lot about my life. Well..talking about catching the dream at the age of 30 is like...urgh..are you okay?? with worries I still want to show that I can do it and try. Most importantly, it's the way to say thank because you guys are the one support the most. Today is the day that hit me again that you are the one made all these happen. I think the best way to say thanks is to keep making music, having good lives and keep running. Please continue to support us."
SASSY "I am SASSY(LOL). Today is Nov. 8 and a year again we published our first album. It is amazing that we could spend this special day with you guys. All members said this already but again, the reason we could be here is because everyone who sit here today. So thank you so much and we will continue to run. Please continue your support. Thanks."
Kei "Thank you everyone who came today. Did you enjoy this fan meeting? Really, thank you so much. Actually when we first wanted to do this fan meeting, we all really worried that if anyone would show up. What if not enough people showed up and we had to cancel? However, all you guys showed the support and came and we had a great turn out(Koki then said, yeah! all 150,000 of them. LOL) Yeah..like Koki said, we have 150,000 people came today. Haha. Thank you guys so much. Also I want to thank the staff as well. They made the ticket and send it to all of you one by one. Also, boss izumi-san made the schedule sheet for today. The event would not be possible without them.
INKT has been running for one year. We were immature and inexperienced so sometimes the result is not as good as we expected. We faced many rocks. However, we still keep running. The power that keeps us on track is because your support. We will continue to grow and hopefully we will be able to do lives and events at a bigger venue in the future. I think that would be the way to say thanks. Please continue to support us. Thanks."
I was just so touched by their words and really tried hard not to cry. Thanks for this amazing fan meeting. They are seriously the best!!
Hopefully you enjoy my report and please please continue to support INKT!! I am sure one day they will go(or go back) to your country to perform!! Cuz we all know they are awesome!!!!

本日11月8日に2回目のINKT ファンミーティングを開催させていただきました。
本日お越しいただいた皆さん、
本日お越しいただけずとも日頃より支えていただいてる皆さん、本当にありがとうございました。
今回の開催にあたっては、メンバー中心としてスタッフ一同この一年間支えていただいてる皆さんにどうしたら喜んで頂けるかを必死に考えました。INKTというバンドでありアーティストである以上『音楽』を提供させてもらうものだと理解はしていましたが、INKTはまだまだ新人バンドでそんな新人バンドを支えて下さる皆さんの声を間近で伺いたい。
また、演奏している以外の素のメンバーを見ていただき皆さんに支えていただいてる事を誇りにして頂きたいと思い出来る限りの、そしてありのままのメンバーと、距離を縮める事を選ばせて頂きました。
今回は出来る限り自らの手で皆さんをもてなす事を心に、日によっては深夜までポンコツ達が頑張らせていただきました。
まだまだなポンコツ達ではありますが、
音楽は勿論の事、先ずは支えて下さる皆さんへの感謝を軸にこれからも頑張って参ります。
親バカかもしれませんが、最後のエンディングでメンバー達が深々と頭を下げさせてもらった姿は奴らの普段から持っている気持ちが表れていたと思っています。
本当にまだまだとは思いますが、皆さんにいただいている『心』を力にかえて前進していきます！
本当にありがとうございました！
これからもよろしくお願いします！
PS.事前から本日終了まで明確にお伝えしてませんでしたが、本日お渡ししたお土産はINKT初めてのポスターとブラジルで撮った写真にメンバーが心を込めてサインさせていただきました！

MJにてBenthamで叩いてるタカシ君の叩いてるドラムセットが偶々カノウプスのキットだった事、冒頭「渋谷〜！」の雄叫びに高まった所ですがおやすみなさい♪(クレイジーガールカッケー‼︎

(It looked so fun! Fans twt'd pix of KOKI pouring the drinks and the rest of the band serving them. KOKI was dressed as he usually is, Kei in a white T, mACKAz in a nice shirt/sweater, and SASSY was in a grey shirt and tie. kissy was wearing like a blue and black flannel shirt.)
