DEBUT
I tried to get everything out... but it still feels like there aren't enough words. This is really for me to have, but feel free to read if you'd like.
Ok. I don't really know how this will turn out and it's already my second attempt at getting this all down. I honestly don't even know where I should start… so I'll just start from partway through the MC.
After they recapped the last year, they announced a few things for the first time. We'd already heard the rumor about Mitsu and Taipi appearing in the Thai Music Festival, so that wasn't too exciting. Then Tama announced that the remaining five of them were going to be at Nissei Gekijo in April. We kind of looked at each other and were like, um, okay… gonna need to ballot for Kabuki. And yay for that cause with all this Mitsu/Taipi stuff, hearing that the others will be doing something too is nice.
At least, that's how I felt until Mitsu and Taipi announced that they'd be doing shows in Theatre CREA… JUST THE TWO OF THEM. Rachel had this look on her face that was clearly unhappy. As a Kitayama fan, I'd GO, but five and two? Really? REALLY~~? D: Not happy. I really dislike the imbalance… Taipi and Mitsu tried to get the audience excited and there were people who sounded excited for it, but at the same time, there were a lot of people who did not.
And then they were like, "We have more news," and I remember Senga specifically (they probably showed him on the VTR screen or something) going, "Eh? What?" and Taipi and Mitsu were like, this is actually something only the two of us know. Then Taipi said, "So the five of them will do Kabuki at Nissei Gekijo… then the two of us will do our shows at CREA… and then after that… the SEVEN of us… WILL HAVE A NATIONWIDE TOUR~!!!!!"
I screamed, a lot. haha… It's great that they have the opportunity to do all these different things, but they're really best as the SEVEN of them. Rachel said something like, "So they're just going to keep giving them tours? This will be the FOURTH one!"
But then as the screams die down and they start to wrap up the talk, we can see YasuKen come of the stairs next to the drum set… carrying an envelope. I remember Rachel going, "What is that? What is that?" and I must have repeated that, but my hands flew up to cover my mouth. None of them noticed he'd come out on stage and YasuKen had to tap Mitsu on the shoulder to get his attention. Mitsu asked him what it was and YasuKen said that staff suddenly gave it to him and told him to hand it to Kitayama.
They all gathered around while Mitsu opened the envelope. Miyata jumped around in the back a bit, saying that he couldn't see and we laughed. We all watched as they pulled out the paper to read what was written… and just as people started calling out, "Nani~?", Nika broke their silence with a loud, "EH?!" and I remember Miyata falling backwards… and suddenly Mitsu and Taipi are still staring at the paper, but everyone behind them is freaking out. In that moment, I'm pretty sure everyone in the audience KNEW what was written on that piece of paper.
I'm crying at this point and screaming (or making high pitch noises at the back of my throat), watching as Mitsu dashes towards the center stage, envelope and paper lifted high above his head, and shouts out, "YOSSHA~~~!!!!" Then he walks back to the main stage and they all gather together go "YOSSHA!!!" together. We know what's just happened, but I remember saying, "I need them to TELL US. They have to SAY it." This long in the Jr. fandom, this is something that needs to be spelled out.
And then Mitsu said the words that I've waited four years to hear… "今年の夏…CDデビュー決定だぁ〜!!!" and I just lost it. I started to bawl my eyes out and I just couldn't stop. I don't even know how THEY managed to not cry. What happens next is sort of a blur (I do remember Nika shouting "SHACHOU~!!!" though) and just when I thought I might be able to settle down, they started to sing Inori and I just stood there, hugging my uchiwa and continued to sob.
I'm so happy for them and even now, it's kind of like a roller coaster of emotions. There are moments when it doesn't feel real, but then there are moments where it hits and I'll start crying all over again… like it did in front of my class on Monday. People will know who they are… without any additional explanation and just thinking about that… ☆*:.｡.(TT▽TT) .｡.:*☆

CDデビュー、本当におめでとうございます！
And this is just the beginning. Never before have those lyrics in Tension held so much meaning to me.
まだまだこれから〜♪（これから、これから！）
