Ticket price rocketed on 1st week, but gradually lowered down.. got mine darn cheap since the guy was only looking for 1 girl–name’s written on lottery postcard, to be exchanged with seat numbers on entrance.

(how many times have I said this) my incredible luck got me row 3!! xD I was more to the left, which is even better since they interview artists (won’t be aired) on that side of the stage~ close-up view banzai!!

Before we start.. official photo!

More here. No info yet when it’s going to be aired but prob next year.

During waiting time, DJ played some music to kill time like normal MJ.. but being Anison SP, it was all anison!! Everyone got pumped and went all out with penlights already… great atmosphere to start! In between performers, while staff setting up stage, we get half-a-song too.. even only my railgun once!!

Finally 7.30pm!
MJ producer opening speech.. a funny (and too awesome) old man who even asked us if anyone’s going to Saitama Super Arena tomorrow (majority!! LOL) and also who’s on for Budokan tomorrow (Sphere.. not as many lol).

Then MC came up on stage side to greet us~ “Let’s start with a collaboration! It’s their first duet..” and most could guess who and who!

*Songs marked red will get aired first, before full version.

Mizuki Nana x May’n
1. ETERNAL BLAZE
2. ダイアモンドクレバス (Diamond Crevasse)

NANA-CHAAAAAAAN!!! My goddess looking damn awesome on that black/red one-piece!! May’n entered next on a glittery white outfit (as usual, shows her legs well). And woaaah, it’s THAT song afterall!! Eternal Blaze was pretty balanced, both kept their singing style but harmonized well.. everyone was too busy HEY-HEY-ing to listen properly anyway. xD MC was short, but Nana said she wants to sing May’n song too.. and by “next time” she meant now. ^^;;; Diamond Crevasse was a great choice. Nana’s powerful voice.. the great Kanno song.. I almost shed a tear.

Moving to stage-side for off-air interview.
May’n confessed she always sings Nana’s songs in karaoke so it felt like a dream to actually perform with THE Nana-sama. xD I used to be indifferent about May’n but I always respect someone who could sing Nana songs.. ♥ up!!

May’n
3. もしも君が願うのなら (Moshimo Kimi ga Negau no Nara)
4. ノーザンクロス (Northern Cross)
Luxury stage set with strings group and piano. First live version of her upcoming single Moshimo Kimi ga Negau no Nara (Valkyria Chronicle 3). Pretty good ballad! May’n MC regarding her recent trip to Singapore, but nothing on AFA, just about food and recommended roti prata (lol isn’t that Indian). During MC stage was cleared, then 4 dancers joined in for Northern Cross!! Been a while since I heard it live~♪

Kudou Mayu
5. Tomorrow’s Song～あしたのうた～ (Ashita no Uta)
6. ハートキャッチ☆パラダイス！ (Heart Catch Paradise)
Nana reappeared on side-stage so we all thought there’d be another Cure Nana song.. but she only introduced Precure. ^^; Nana did Blossom’s transformation voice before leaving stage though!! Too bad this will get cut. :-/

..aaaand PURIKYUA KITAAAAAAA~~!! Mayu-chan had twintails (usually ponytail)! I took out pink light and Cure Blossom mini plushie! xD Guests are 4 Cure anigao!! Not only the usual Blossom and Marin, but also Sunshine and Moonlight!! Clapped for Ashita no Uta and danced with all my power for Heart Catch Paradise!!

Pico
7. Story
8. 勿忘草 (Wasuregusa)
Popular NicoDou-singer-turned-big. His voice is so high it sounds like a girl’s… he can do pretty low too though. Story was not bad, but loved Wasuregusa! Haven’t seen Tegamibachi yet but it’s a good song. Pico’s somewhat cute, but his band members are all ikemen ♥

Girls Dead Monster
9. Alchemy (marina)
10. Day Game (LiSa)
11. Crow Song (marina + LiSa)
Uoooo GirlDemo!! Liked them after Anisama. Fans response was crazy (Angel Beats! is damn famous). marina performed first with Alchemy.. she did a mistake near the end of the song, being NHK that was NG so she had to redo it ^^; Ganbatte~~! I like marina’s voice more than LiSa (well Iwasawa was the best AB!chara imo) but gotta admit LiSa is soooo charming ahaha sorry erojiji orz. LiSa was SO high doing newest single Day Game she kinda reminded me of Hirano Aya, in a good way. Last song was what everyone waited for.. Crow Song!! Sing-along chorus FTW!

ALI PROJECT
12. 聖少女領域 (Seishoujo Ryouiki)
13. 亡國覚醒カタルシス (Boukoku Kakusei Catharsis)
Epic bird-cage costume and woah that hair… properly girl-screamed “ARIKA-SAMAAAAA!!” lol. Not sure if I had made it clear before or not, but I LIKE ALIPRO! I don’t rly fancy their newer stuff but was a fan during their .hack/Rozen era (yes bought CD) so how glad I was to hear Seishoujo Ryouiki (Rozen) and Catharsis (hack), 2 of my faves!! Drag queen dancers joined in for Catharsis.. lol no wonder it doesn’t get aired in normal NHK. ^^;;; MC was funny: Arika-sama said anison is supposed to cheer people up.. before apologizing for only having gloomy songs LOL.

JAM Project
14. MAXON
15. GONG
Started with side-stage interview, but only Kageyama talked. Mostly about their world tour and stuff.. I was focusing on Makkun sorry. xD Kicking off with newest single MAXON.. lately their songs get more fast-paced which I don’t really get why? ^^; then everyone’s favorite hot-blooded GONG!! I swear it felt like summer inside… or JAM just burned our soul to the max!

Mizuki Nana
16. 十字架のスプレッド (Juujika no Spread)
17. NEXT ARCADIA
NANAAAAAAAAA!!! Kyakyakya!! That outer-space silver costume gave me this strong “I’VE SEEN THAT BEFORE” feeling.. she wore similar outfit pretty often afaik (Universe/first, Formula/dance, Livedom/WildEyes) but apparently it’s from first Anisama (thanks Hei-chan!).

Nana always appears in MJ every new single so I wondered what she’d sing.. somehow we got the very anison, very Nana-ish, very out-of-nowhere Juujika no Spread!! FINALLY ♥ After MC, my-dream-came-true NEXT ARCADIA!! Possibly my Nana song of the year~ Just can’t get enough of it. Too bad most people used UO out of tension.. it’s a blue song!! >_<

Nana’s MC got interesting after someone started the habitual “Turn around!” chant. New trend since Live Games, instead of turning we get live Cure Blossom!! First was Blossom’s line before special move.. then people chanted “Once more!!”.. so we got OSHIRI PUNCH!!! LOLOL I really doubt this will pass into national TV… ^^;;;;

After Nana left stage.. it’s not over yet!
DJ’s last attempt to kill us all, full Zankoku na Tenshi no These! Haha great choice though I was praying for more fripSide or even Yukarin. xD

FINISHED~~~ about 9.45pm
Much better than I had expected. Couldn’t believe I thought it was OK to miss this just because there’s Riripa tomorrow.. From now on I’ll just appear in every single Nana thing (eh isn’t it what I’m doing now lol) without any hesitation!

…

Also met up with Hongkong Nanatard Hei-chan~♥ really dedicated fangirl with yeaaaars of experience! Got introduced to a big group of Japanese fans (one of them even knows my blog! 感動したありがとう！) then nice Okinawa-style udon.. and go home to prepare for tomorrow’s Lyrical Party IV!! …though I think some went to queue for goods lol~

More Nana-chan tomorrow!!! And my princess Yukarin~!!

Good night!

So here’s some background story: Remember this Animelo 2008 Digest video? I posted the same clip to youtube later on. I don’t really check it after a while, except if I needed to show it to someone.

.. until last week I received a fanmail.

At first me and this girl (from her PMS writing style, I believe I’m not dealing with a trap) exchanged mails normally, just like any fangirls blabbering about our idols. She sounded like a sweet and genuine ALIPRO fan who also respect Nana.

I even went along with her story about Yells: Katakura Mikiya had serious accident at that time and that’s why Arika was upset/cried and only asked for a few lines so she can take care of him (because she believed they are “together”).

Not only there’s no proof at all (on the accident; I don’t want to know ALIPRO’s sex life), I reckoned in Animelo that Katakura didn’t look like he just recovered after getting hit by a truck. Note that I will gladly apologize if this was true.

I may be ignorant, but she looked cheerful enough to me.

Then she apologized about the ruckus her cousin started in my youtube video comments. I was like, what comments?

So I checked the youtube comments.. oh boy, looks like it’s been hit by a shitstorm. All nice posts about Nana are marked spam or at least given many thumbs down, even an insignificant comment like “Nana is so beautiful”. Weirdly enough, “Arika-sama is so cute!” gets many thumbs up. (Both opinions look wrong to me, because Minorin is the beautiful one, heh. Anyway, you get my point.)

Also said was Nana wears skimpy stripper outfit that is harmful to kids who watch Animelo. She’ll be shocked to see how everyone there was basically.. kimo-ota. Not to mention both Nana and Arika often wear similar goth-loli outfit that don’t match their age, like those from Animelo 07.

..is it just me, or they looked like they’re having fun, not bitch-slapping each other?

Tell you the truth, I actually believed it was her sister/cousin that trolled my youtube page. I mean, it’s youtube. You must be a serious loser to create clones there to reply your own posts. But then I know that she actually is the same kid who called j1m0ne a 2-years-old funney poaster few months ago.

I went back to re-read the youtube comments with more attention, and now at least five of them look like clones to me, because:
1. Similar speech patterns and arguments: “OMG Arika-sama is a goddess. Nana is a bitch, wait don’t get me wrong, she’s a cute bitch.”
2. Some flamer accounts have been closed.
3. If you browsed through other Nana/Animelo videos, you can identify the trolls.

So I decided to bluff her that I’m able to check the IP address of whoever marked spam or gave thumbs to the comments, since I’m the mighty video owner. What she replied (in panic?) just got herself busted.

I wonder if the people who were spaming and giving the thumbs down was my childish little sister? She also uses my computer and does dumb things like that. So if it was our IP address on there, then it was her, and I’m sorry.

And she added this, which may be funnier than any KaneTomo blog post I’ve ever read.

I think why my family(the kids in it anyway) are like this is because we were brought up with very strict rules? To tell the truth, I actually am half Hawaiian princess, my great ancestor was King Kamehameha.

..and I’m the Queen of England? I literally LOL’ed so hard in that early morning until my neighbor’s dog barked me to shut up.

Obviously I never replied her since.

PS. If *you* read this, check your Yells lyric book, Nana didn’t get the most part, actually it was May’n. But don’t start calling her mesu buta, ok?

Screenshots (a.k.a hard proofs!):
Emails: Katakura’s accident. It’s my sister/cousin.
Youtube: War start. Long war.

..lol I’m actually being mean. But this is teh intarwebz so sue me.
