Just got back from their Ama no Jyaku event at the Ueno store. There's really not much to report, it barely lasted 15 minutes including the mic-less performance and handshake event. The area was divided into approximately 10 rows, so the first 1-3 rows were literally sitting meters away from them...
Bits and pieces I happen to remember:
-- "Introduction"Yuuka: I'm usually all sluggish during the evening, but I managed to get to sleep yesterday before the date changed so I'm all high-spirited today.
-- "Any thoughts on your coming to the official H!P store?"Dawa: Where are the pictures...? (Note: The event was held in another room next to the shop.
)
Yuuka: I've never been to the Ueno store, so I'd like to visit it some time
-- "Tell us about something funny that's happened recently"Yuuka: There was a test that my friends and I completely were clueless at, so we laughed about it afterwards.
Dawa: During a test I wrote "Binbinkyoku" instead of "Yuubinkyoku" (Note: Dawa never fails to deliver...
)
(Note: The guy in front of me blocked my view of Kanon most of the time so I rarely tried to focus on her. She's a pro, though, so she didn't say something unusual anyway. Ogasaki didn't mention anything extraordinary, as well.)
Highlights:
- First of all the MC was a complete noob, but I guess it's better that way.
- I think this is my first time seeing, literally a
live performance, so that was fun.
- Since they were positioned Ogasaki -> Yuukarin -> Dawa -> Kanon
they had to do a microphone relay each time answering the questions. During a Yuukarin -> Dawa relay, Dawa had her attention focused on the MC and the audience applauding so there was a 5 second time lag because she didn't notice until Yuukarin tapped her shoulder. On a later time during Dawa -> Kanon, Dawa forgot to pass the mic to Kanon which ensued in laughter from the audience.
