[fan report+other translation] You&Jin solo live Feb 18th-28th
I think everyone knows that You&Jin live got recorded on Feb 25, but it doesn't necessarily mean Johnny's will release a DVD of it (I read that Ta-chan's concert got recorded but no DVD so far), so if you are desperate for a DVD and you haven't sent the petition postcard yet, please do it.
Since it's got recorded, you have plenty of time to write whatever you like...add to the end like "marry me Jin" or "you look most manly without facial hair" "Please quit smoking" something like that~Joke joke~cough~XD
check address and samples here, but you can always write your own words.
Feb 25
# In the afternoon show, ten cameras were in the venue. Some were labeled for TV and some were for DVD. In the evening show, 9 cameras were there and all were labeled for DVD. Four special microphones were added to collect the sound. Jin wore make-up for the evening show (LOL I'm somehow surprised he was actually make-up free in other shows. He's beautiful anyway~). Ryo went and performed with him in Hey girl.
# From two You&Jin members' blogs
Feb 25 was the older brother's (GO GO Brothers) birthday. Before the evening show, Jin gathered all people together and celebrated the brother's birthday. Everybody was so moved by that. The female dancers actually planned some birthday card thingies as well as the birthday cake. Jin also participated. He's really very yasashi. later all together took a pic, which was the treasure for them.
KAT-TUN Style Feb 25 (about the show on 16th Junno&Maru went to watch)
Koki: Did you go to watch You&Jin?
Junno: I did!
Koki: How do you feel about it?
Junno: Sugoi! Really great! I was shocked! The action in the beginning was also sugoi. Among the dancers, there's Joey.
Koki: ah, Joey.
Junno: Someone read the instruction before the show started, and I was thinking when will he (Jin) show up? Will he show up with normal "yeah" or...? Then Akanishi appeared all of a sudden, exactly his style.
Koki: Then?
Junno: Almost all the English songs were written by him, although I don't exactly know what were those about.
Koki: eh, nothing you can do about it tho.
Junno: However I could feel what he's trying to express and what's he really wants to do.
Koki: Feels like you got the message ne.

Feb 27th
Afternoon show
When Jin showed up, he's wearing a ribbon written "today's protagonist". The venue totally burst into laughter
In the robotic dance, he was trying to take it off but the play-back moves always stopped him, so he had to walk to the back of the stage and ripped it off. Then he hit the drum for twice, but all of a sudden he turned to be normal (not robot like he performed every time in this song)...and waved to the staff, but got ignored. He waved for long, in the end he picked up the ribbon and waved with it, then the staff-san came and took the ribbon off stage...The performance then started.
MC
He repeated "welcome to You&Jin, this is Akanishi Jin" for a few times, and couldn't help laughing himself in the end.
Jin said he's not good at MC and the whole venue went "we know!!!"
Jin: Although I gave an impression that I'm talkative and I speak a lot...
All shook heads and said "not at all~~~"
Jin: You guys shut up! (he apologized right after with soft voice...)
Jin: Today my brother came...eh??? His name is Takizawa Hideaki
Fans: Kya~~~~~~~~~
Jin: He said the MC won't stop until he says ok..."
Big loud cheers~
Jin: In the rest room before the show started, he already talked much about the performance. First, the "today's protagonist" thingy was from him.
Big cheers
Jin: He said one H (ero) move was already enough and don't throw water bottle back~~~
Fans were clapping!
Jin: Although I explained that I didn't have time to put the water bottle back when singing, he totally ignored it!!!
Jin: I don't know how to continue the MC...is that still not enough?
The audience&Tackey: NO!
So Jin started the Q&A corner, and he talked with a kid fora bit and imitated the little boy's voice.
Q1: How do you remember so much English?
A: Make friends with lots of foreigners
Q2: Why can't your collarbone be touched
A: Do you often read magazine like Wink up? Must quite often ne!!
The one asked the question answered she knew it from Oshareiism...Jin then asked who's collarbone can't be touched? And repeated a few times that his was born like that and if it's touched, something serious will happen~~~
Jin shouted to Tackey "is it still not enough?"
Q3: When will you write Japanese songs?
A: If an album is released...
So all shouted "release it release it", and then they mentioned DVD...Jin said if Tackey said ok, then...
He looked at Tackey and asked "are you still there?"
Fans: Yeah!
Jin: is that (MC) enough?
Tackey said NO with a loud voice
So Jin said he's gonna drink water first...He ran to pick up his water bottle and drank some, then threw the bottle back on purpose~(XD)
Then Jin totally ran out of topic...so fans started to shout "take off your clothes!"
Jin: No way. I already did it in ANAN (repeated anan for many many times...he's just trying to kill the time~XD)
Fans: Sing Murasaki!
Jin: I'm not in the mood of singing Murasaki.
Fans: How about Pinky?
Jin: not either.
Fans: Hesitate.
Jin: not either.
Fans: The D-motion.
Jin: eh? by only one?
Then a black dancer came to rescue him to say no time left~
Jin asked Tackey again if it's ok, but fans still didn't want to let him go and kept interrupting his introduction of those co-opped songs. Jin started to beg for letting him continue~ Then fans set him free and clapped.
Jin then laughed and looked at Tackey as if he's saying that the fans were all on his side now, so Tackey let him continue~XD
Tackey left after Jin said Ciao (normally the guests followed the staff-san to leave after Eternal, but Tackey stayed until the end of the show.)
Evening show
Yamapi, Shirota brothers and Jin's brother Reio went. Jun and Reio sit downstairs, while Pi and Yuu were on GC seats.
MC
Jin: today, Yamashita-kun...Shirota Yuu-kun...
Fans: kya~~~~~~~~~~~!!!
the spotlights were on Yamapi and Yuu
Jin: Actually...
Pi (shouted from GC seat): Jin~~~~~kun!!
Jin: Omae!! Shut up!! What did I say before?! You say gomennasai!!(his voice was actually very soft)
Pi (shout): Continue whatever you were saying then!!!
Jin: Actually ne, it's the second time they come!! Since last time they missed the beginning part, they come again. Last time you guys started from Wonder?
Fans: oh oh...
Jin: Eh? Yamashita-san, what?
Pi: From where the weird mic was used.
Jin: Ano, that's not weird mic. That's weird golden mic. That's the right way to state it!! But it's not weird at all!! That's what staff-san spent time to make. Aren't you a bit impolite?!! Say gomennasai!!
Pi: I'll say it later!!
Jin: Today is like this...ah let's put him away, let's talk.
Fans: Yeah~~~(clapping)
From Otani Taro's blog. Otani Taro is the director of Yukan club&Gokusen.
He went to watch Bandage movie in the afternoon and watched Jin's live in the evening. He chatted with Jin in the rest room after the live. He said Jin's live looked very mature and fashionable. He really enjoyed it.
"Sugoi na Akanishi Jin!"
Matsujun talked about Jin in his radio show
A few days ago, I went to watch Jin's stage, live.
I went to watch the concert...
Noisy ne, that guy~
When will you come? When will you come? Kept asking like that.
So I went.
Interesting ne...
Very Akanishi style like ne~
There are songs
CD songs and also original ones for this live and Bandage songs like two?
Eight out of ten were English songs.
One was done with Nishikido.
On that day, say I'll eat with Akanishi and Nishikido
Nishikido replied if he could finish his work earlier
Just come! told him that
Eventually he appeared and also went on the stage.
So it's like that...
Then we three went to eat,
Although I'm a senpai to them, I felt I was taught a lot (Jun was referring to the time when he got drunk last time and was laughed by Jin and Ryo~XD)
Feb 28 the last stage
notes
# When Jin played keyboard in Christmas Morning, he said Ladies and Gentlemen~this is the last stage, plese enjoy. The reporter thought her must be the only one crying during this song (she just loves it too much).
# When Jin mentioned Wonder during the MC part, Crystal Kay showed up. All went hyper. Then they sang Helpless night together. Everyone was crying including the reporter. Crystal Kay smiled shyly when her voice was a bit shaking on high notes.
# After Helpless night, Jin appeared with a bunch of red roses with a white one in the middle and said Happy Birthday (CK's birthday was Feb 26). All fans sang Happy Birthday. CK was kinda shy and Jin said "minna are yasashi ne"
# Fans shouted Wonder, and CK looked a bit uneasy. Jin said maybe later but CK's busy unlike him (laugh).
# So You&Jin had the first and the last encore. Jin and CK sang Wonder together. Very great performance. They held hands like they did in the PV, which was very touching.
# When all finished and only Jin was on the stage, he said "we'll see each other soon!!" and something like "if I have the chance, I really want to do this again and again, and from now on please continue supporting me."
# Koki went. During the time fans were calling encore, Koki was clapping with the fans~^^ He stayed until the last minute. Kasahara-kun and his manager also went.
