August 5 - views and happenings from the mosh pit (in no particular order)
Block D mosh pit. Each block had around 400 people @___@
I was up there on August 4. THAT WAS THE BEST SEAT EVER.
Lucky audience in front of the upper stage. Seemed like Jump sang the second half of Hitomi no Screen for them XD
Confetti: Sakura petals and the pink feathers of doom XD
The giant tarp :D
YamaChii rivalry - encore with neon pink and yellow trapeze from the upper stage
Yamada twirled in the air, Chinen couldn't, so he hung upside down. Yamada tried to hang upside down too but he couldn't.
Chinen headbanging onstage during School Kakumei, Yamada followed suit
Yamada's belt fail
He was doing acrobatics on the sakura petal stand that was suspended in mid-air (sorry I'm not knowledgeable with acrobatic terms XD) and was "assisted" by Yuto and Chinen. When he first somersaulted he almost hit his head on the sakura stand, and the second time his belt snapped open. He was trying to fix it while impressing us with his acrobatic skills, but we got more impressed by his waistline and his black shorts LOL *bricked*
Finally he stopped the somersaults, Yuto and Chinen turned him around and around and when they let go he was showered with pink feathers and sakura petal confetti while he was spinning :D The sakura he was standing on had a neon yellow star underneath BTW :D
Thank You 「僕達から君へ」
Yamada asked if we enjoyed the show. "We also did. You're wonderful! AND, it's atsui desu. *fans fan him* Ah, thank you thank you, that's very kind, but please listen to what I have to say (みんなさん、楽しかった?僕らも楽しかった。君が最高だ。そして、暑いです。あ、有難う、優しいね、でも話を聴きましょう)" <--we were listening that's why we fanned you :P
Keito gave his usual speech (in English) about the Tohoku disaster, but then he ruined it because fumbled at some of his words and the audience laughed at him. But he still went on anyway since it's a serious speech yo! Actually he was getting tongue-tied a lot on that day.
Audience sang the entire song with them *sobs* This was the Mandarin (traditional) version of the lines they translated:
Say goodbye, 因為很快就能再相見,離別是為了有想念你的時間,讓我們同心合一無論生在何方,因為我們的心正緊緊相連
Say goodbye, 給今天的每一個你,離別是為了再次相逢的約定,當我們每次心有靈犀的瞬間,層層推疊累積,愛從此刻誕生
Thank you for your love
MC + Q&A
Chinen - 我是知念侑李、 我最喜歡你們! Wǒ shì Zhī Niàn Yòu Li, wǒ zuì xǐ huan nǐ men! (My name is Chinen Yuri, and I really love you all!) Audience squees and he cups his ear and we squee some more. Then he does a victory dance, and we go 「可愛いいいいいいいい~!」 and he puts on this really smug expression on his face like "hoho, I win" XD After the Q&A he goes "My name in Mandarin sounds almost like how it is in Nihongo. It's easy to remember."
Hikaru - "When you see us/watch us on TV, do you call us by our Chinese names or our Japanese names?" Audience says in Japanese. "In Japanese? Why??? (laugh) You can switch that easily? Knowing Chinese, Japanese, and English, wow you guys are really smart huh."
Yuto - 我是中島裕翔!Wǒ shì Zhōng Dǎo Yù Xiáng! Yù Xiáng! *stikes pose - hands on hips, chin up, like a proud little boy* Yù Xiáng! *strikes same pose again on different side of the stage* Yù Xiáng! *strikes pose yet again* はい、Yù Xiáng でした。*bows* SO PRECIOUS /keyboard bash
Fan asked to have Jump show us their cute finishing pose. Inoo was pointing one finger to his puffed cheeks. Sorry, I only stared at Inoo. XD HE WAS SO CLOSE.
Inoo picked a male fan for the Q&A, he didn't have any questions, but he had these handmade anime Jump dolls to give to the boys, so Inoo took them (and dropped some of them a few times, they were around 3" tall XD) and showed it to everyone.
Yamada was asked to hold a fan's hand and tell her "I love you" in four languages - English, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. sdkflaskldfhaskljdf
Takaki was calling a fan, but the fans didn't know who he was pointing at and were looking at each other like "You? Me?" and Takaki crouches lower (he was on the upper stage), points again, and says "You!" IN ENGLISH.
MALE FANS RULED THE Q&As. JUST SAYING. It's probably because the female Japanese fans riled so much on the internet because Jump hugged some female fans for the Q&A (and even proposed to one XD)
Together Forever
Yabu sat on the stairs going to the upper stage and was waving at the fans while waiting to sing his line. Then he teased the fans by starting to wave but stopping short from raising his arm. He did that a few times with a really huge grin on his face.
Time - Dance pairing: YabuHika, Takaki & Daiki, YamaChii & Yuto, Keito & Inoo. They all took turns switching stages. Takaki and Daiki stayed at the area where I'm at for most of the song XD
Changing clothes
THE BOYS CHANGED CLOTHES JUST AT THE CORNERS OF THE STAGES. GDI. They didn't care about the fans at all. XD I SAW TAKAKI CHANGE CLOTHES ASKJDHAKLSFKLASJDFJKLASDHF /DEAD GDI I'm really turning into a perv. ;__;
Encore
Hikaru and Inoo had their arms over each others' shoulders and were singing like there's no tomorrow.
They asked the fans to fan the giant pinwheels near the stage, just like in Hong Kong :D
Yabu got the huge red banner where we signed our names, and draped it around his shoulder like a towel. :D
I GOT TO SQUISH TAKAKI'S ARM WHEN HE WENT AROUND OUR SIDE OF THE STAGE. BUT MY BODY REALLY PAID FOR IT (≧▽≦)
WE GOT TO SING HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YUTO!!! :D He also got some of the coloured sign cards the fans were holding which, when put together, would have this message: "Nakajima Yuto, August 10th, Happy 19th Birthday ♥"
At the very last, they all turned their microphones off and yelled 「台湾、謝謝、我愛你!!!」
August 4's notes and photos coming up soon :P
