An Cafe said:Akihabara.
This is Teruki.
Right now I'm in a game store at Akihabara with Yuuki and Kanon san ☆
Yuuki and Kanon san started this war-kind of game, and it won't seem to end anytime soon. More like, these two are so loud.
☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
I won't do it anymore.
This is Teruki.
UFO catcher. I don't usually do things like this, but all of a sudden I was swallowed up into it(*_*) And I did it so many times, but I couldn't catch anything so I gave up.
When Kanon san did it after me, he caught something on his first try.
Right now I really feel like I was betrayed.
☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
I won o(≧∀≦)o
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o it's Miku. Today it was rainy the whole day and it was kinda gloomy-. These are the days where you just don't feel as excited o(・∀・)o
Today wasn't a very active day, and all I did was go out to do personal practice. I mainly did practice on the new songs that are in the set-lists☆ One of them was a song I wanted to do really badly. The laid-back feeling of it is what I like. Now that I think about it, I feel like my taste in music has really changed. Back then, I used to only listen to up beat songs, but now I can listen to middle-tempo and ballads too. I think the main point was that I started listening to the lyrics more o(≧∀≦)o Because I started doing things like: I'll listen to this song and get energy, or I'll listen to this song and get sadder(｀・ω・´)b
Also, I ate MOS Burger. It's the newest item, spicy chicken burger. Here's my review,
Taste
★★★★☆
Smell
★★★★☆
Looks
★★★☆☆
That's how it was. Generally speaking, it was guu-, guguu-. The little-bit spicy smell tempts my appetite, and then the mayonnaise smooths out the spicy-ness, so it's a kiteretsu burger with sweetness inside the boldness. Please try it out o(・∀・)o
So anyway, today I'm going to do the guitar for a little bit and then go to sleep o(≧∀≦)o

Mystery.
This is Teruki.
Today we had studio from the afternoon. It was just the 3 of us, with Yuuki and takuya, but during the break Yuuki said "The reason why it rains, is because thunder-sama is in a bad mood" and he started a stupid conversation. Then he says "Teruki san and takuya and everyone has a thunder-sama on them too~", so I asked him "Well then, what happens when two thunder-samas have different opinions of whether it's going to rain or shine?". "That's obviously majority rules. Just because a person is a rain-man that doesn't mean that it rains every day wherever he goes, right? That's because he's sometimes with a sunshine-person, or each person's thunder-sama talks it over with eachother and decides on making it sunny" that's what he told me.
How could he proudly talk about such things that don't even have proof (`´) takuya and I wanted to somehow pin him down with reasoning so we kept asking him all these things, but Yuuki's strange world keeps showing us these new developments, so we just gave up half-way and takuya and I decided "whatever, let's just pretend Yuuki's not here(laugh)".
As a side note, Yuuki's day-dreaming habit is so crazy, that right now within AnCafe he's called "Virtua Fighter Yuuki" (laugh)
Oh yeah yeah, yesterday I went to Akihabara with Kanon san and Yuuki, but yesterday I saw a different Kanon san that I have never seen before.
Non-chan File 1.
That usually quiet...or more like shy Kanon san was actually going up to a stranger and saying "excuse me~, can I borrow some fire?" and he's borrowing a lighter! Last month when we went to Shinjuku together to buy some CDs at Tower Records, he bought the wrong CD, and he was saying "Mufuu...what should I do(-ω-" and without being able to return it he was fumbling around. That same Kanon san!
Non-chan File 2.
You know when you're walking down Akihabara, there's all these maid-san handing out things. I guess they're store flyers or something? Kanon san usually picks up all of them. And when the 3 of us are walking together, Kanon san would be the farthest away from the maid-san, but he'd creep up from behind and without fail take one.
Non-chan File 3.
When the 3 of us were walking, these two guys that were walking in front of us were standing really close to each other and they were linking arms and walking. I noticed it first, so when I told Yuuki and Kanon san, Yuuki joked around and said "You can't look~!" and he covered up Kanon san's eyes with his hands from behind. And then Kanon san...
said "Stop it! People will get the wrong idea for me too!" and he shouted in a pretty frantic tone and I was a little scared. If it was the usual him, he'd just say "Whatchya doin, stop it-(-ω-)" and it'd just be like that, but yesterday's Kanon san was a little different.
It looks like when you step into Akihabara, Kanon san completely changes modes. He looked more manly, and somewhat filled with self-confidence.
Good night.

Curtain o( ≧∀≦)o
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o this is Miku.
If you happened to lose your self-confidence, and you felt like you're getting crushed, then just think about the good things, only the good things. by Anpan Man
It's such good lyrics. It's the Anpan Man song. When I was little I was singing along with it without thinking, but when I listen to it now, it really hits my heart!! I have a lot of these moments these days, now that I'm an adult.
I went to do personal practice again today. Today for practice, I focused on the songs I'm weaker in. I practiced without the karaoke and just did a capella, but when it's just the vocals, the rough parts show up so easily. So I put stress on those and did practice o(・∀・)o
But, today was hot like summer. I put the electric fan-kun to work. And, I drank Calpis. When you say summer, it's gotta be Calpis!! I like drinking the type where you dilute the undiluted solution yourself. I like to drink it a little bit sweeter.
Also, my curtains came today!! Last time I bought a curtain for my little window, but this time I bought the main curtain. I like it a lot. I was using my old curtain so the size didn't fit my current room, and the sunlight would come in, so the mornings would be so bright and I'd wake up. But now with this, I think I'll be able to sleep deeply Ψ(｀∀´)Ψ
Yes yes. Tomorrow I have dance lessons and I have to wake up early so I'm going to sleep now. Oyasu-mikusuke o(≧∀≦)o

Kengai, Kengai, Nice guy! ("kengai" means outside range)
This is Teruki.
It's hot these days. We had studio today too, but these days I'm drentching in sweat and hitting the drums(-.-
I really feel that I'm facing one-on-one with my equipment these days. Well, the origin of that is the Snare that I bought in Osaka, November of last year...but I think I've already talked about this so many times.
This is obvious, but for drums, every single one is different. Even if it's the same model, every single one is still different. I feel that facing one-on-one with your drums is the same as human relations. Even if it's just one Snare, you have the head choice, tuning, snare wire, mute etc...and you can make all kinds of sounds. And, depending on the environment that you make the sounds...and the place, the ringing changes too. Then, depending on the player, the sound that comes out gets affected too. The way I play, my stick choice, and how strong I grip the sticks etc...
So anyway, what I'm trying to say is, for every single drum you need to test out all kinds of things and study it and say "this guy has these kinds of good parts" or "this guy isn't made for this kind of play" and learn the good parts and bad parts. Even if it doesn't go the way you wanted it to, you say "next time I'll try doing this more" and you keep challenging it many times. I think that's what it means to face one-on-one with the drums. And, I personally have my own skills and small habits too, so I think with that, your compatibility with the drums starts to grow. A compatibility that is made up of individuality and individuality, that's kind of like human relations I think.
Since I'm the drummer, I change things around depending on the content I want to express, so I cooperate with the drums together, and say "for the first drums, I'll use you, since you are the easiest to use, and for the middle part of the live I want to let out a dense, deep kind of sound so the second drums will be you, lastly, I want to go high-pitched and strong so the third drums will be you" and that's how I play. If I don't work hard and get to know the drums, then I won't be able to see it's good parts too...I don't think it'll show me it's individuality.
There's this Snare that I bought when I was 19, but yesterday and today at the studio I thought "this guy is pretty cool" and I got to newly discover the good parts of it☆ It's so strange. I'm sure there's the fact that my values toward sound is constantly changing though.
Before I got the Pearl set that I have right now, I used to be using TAMA's Two-bass set. It's the one I'm using in the Shikisai Aon Live DVD, or the PVs that came in Shikisai Moment. Now that I think about it, I said good bye to it before I actually faced one-on-one with it(^_^
Good night~.

I got fat o( ﾂ≫??ﾂ?債≫?ｦ)o
Nyappy o( ﾂ≫??ﾂ?債≫?ｦ)o it's Miku. The title "I got fat o( ﾂ≫??ﾂ?債≫?ｦ)o" sounds like I'm happy, but it's nothing like that. I have no choice because I always have the o( ﾂ≫??ﾂ?債≫?ｦ)o sign everytime I post o(ﾂ・ﾂ?債・)o
I got so shocked when I saw the scale. I have been too scacred to go on it for a while, but I went on it right now, and I' so shocked. I don't know why, since I danced and walked a lot today. I don't have a specific reason to why I gained weight. I want to lend someone my fat like Anpanman(the main character of a childrens show, who is made out of bread). o(ﾂ・ﾂ?債・)o
And say "Here, eat my fat". That's impossible though (ﾂ｀ﾂ・ﾆ津鳴・´)b
I went in bath with Nyappy-chan the other day, because she was starting to smell. I think she got used to baths, because she stayed still. She looks like she likes it too. These day, she's starting to look like a little child. I can only see her as a human. Cafekko's probably don't understand how cute Nyappy is. That's why I want to have a time where Cafekkos can take a walk with, or play with Nyappy o(ﾂ≫??ﾂ?債≫?ｦ)o
I want the time to be not evolved around the band, and to be relaxing. I also want everyone else to be free of their everyday stress's. I hope that day would come true. More lke, I will make it come true.
Well, bye nyappy o(ﾂ≫??ﾂ?債≫?ｦ)o

Today, I came back to Sendai in the afternoon, on the bullet train. I guess it was from my everyday worries, but I was stretched out and sleeping on the bullet train like a deep-sea fish that was raise to shore. I almost went all the way to Hachinohe.
When I got to Sendai, before returning to my parents house, I stopped by my sisters house. My sister also just moved last month. That house has such nice view. Can you believe, you only have to walk about 10 minutes from the station, but it has this view? (look at picture) I love Sendai.
Right now, my sister has a baby in her stomach and a little bump was sticking out, and she made me see some of the pictures of her baby inside her stomach. It was so nastolgic. Did you ask why it was nostalgic? When I just came into Ancafe, I was working at a factory where they make the machines that they use to take those pictures of inside the stomach(laugh). Specificaly, I worked on the final stage of the making of the machine, and did the operation confirmation after it was made. Basicaly, you just comfirm if it functions or not by putting it against your own neck, rist or torso and taking you veins and arteries. We also had to check if it would work during the summertime, so we left it in a room that was 40ﾂ?ｽ for one night, and did the check once again in that room. I was so sweaty (*_*)
Just for the information, when we had our first nation wide tour (not a one-man, but as a Loop Ash event) I said "I'm sorry, but may I have about 2 weeks off..." and I instantly got fired (^_^

The boy who was able to be troubled
It's Teruki.
Today, I went to the second hand music store near the Sendai station. I found an interesting snare drum, but the owner was kind o out of it, and only knew the maker, year. The year wasn't too old, but wasn't too youong, and I was just interested. I was playing with it for while and gathered all the information, then I called Tohru-san and he got it ina second. I can always count on him m(_ _)m. But, I ended up not getting it (^_^
At night, me, my sister and my sisters husband all stayed at our parents house, and we all ate dinner together. the sister I talked about in my blog yesterday was the eldest, and the one who stayed over at our parents house was the second daughter.
That's all. I just felt like explaining it.
The story of the photoshoot the other day...
takuya always carries around a novel or paperback book, so when takuya was having his indivisual shoot, I looked at his bag, saying "I wonder what book he's reading right now". The title was, "The first-class man, the second-class man"(^_^
takuya, let's relax a little! It's okay!

Nyappy o(ﾂ≫??ﾂ?債≫?ｦ)o It's miku. Yesterday, I was going to write an entry, but fell alseep. Sorry. Yesterday we arrived at Sendai a day early. For some reason I was remembering the time we came to Sendai on our Shinrabanshou tour. The scenery and images of myslef from back then goes through my mind o(ﾂ・ﾂ?債・)o. I was so excited and scared because it was a live with different bands. All the other bands were so cool.
Anyways, I went to go eat cow toungue yesterday. We were all playing Monster Hunter so I was fine with eating cup ramen, but I changed my mind because I was in Sendai anyways, so I slipped out of the group and went to eat cow toungue with Yuuko-sanﾂ≫┐Cow tongue is so good o(ﾂ≫??ﾂ?債≫?ｦ)o
It's so different from Tokyo. The juciness is so much thicker. Sendai's meat surpriss me o(ﾂ・ﾂ?債・)o

Second serving of Cow tongue o( ﾂ≫??ﾂ?債≫?ｦ)o
Nyapy o( ﾂ≫??ﾂ?債≫?ｦ)o It's Mikuﾂ≫┐I have come back from Sendai to Tokyo. I ate a cow tongue lunch set on the bullet train back. It's 2days of cow tongue. We already had our own lunches ready, but I wanted to eat it. It was also the last 窶｡@. The reason why I know, is because when Yuuko-san tried to order it too, there were no more(laugh). I gave her one piece. You may think I am a shrewed for only giving her one piece, but there were only 5 pieces, so it was hard for me. Cow tongue is too good. I love it so much I would do a cow tongue game. I wonder why the cow tongue game became popular?? I wonder if Sendai started it?? I think you can make a game out of yuzupon(a mix of soysauce and lemon). I just think it's strange that it's cow tongue o(ﾂ・ﾂ?債・)o
Other than all of that, today was a liveﾂ≫┐Thank you for te fun time. The enthusiasm is so great!! I could see everyone sweat during the live. Sweat that is shed does not lie. Those are my favorite words. I made a new goal for the next time I come to Sendai. I want it to become a live so intense everyone's going to collapse o(ﾂ≫??ﾂ?債≫?ｦ)o. It was very intense today though. We still had the energy to do tiramisu(when they say 1,2,3 tiramisu, tiramisu) though. Next time, I will make it so intense we can't do that!! So, I want to become more cool and admirable. I am still satisfide today though!! I exceeded my limits. All I need to do is stretch my limits now ﾆ陳ｵ(ﾂ｀ﾂ?債´)ﾆ陳ｵ. Thank you very much for today. Adios & Adidas. And Asience.

Today was the Sendai live.
Today was just very hot! The sweat I shed today felt very good(ﾂ・ﾂ?債・). I have been wanting to go to a Ganbanyoku(a hot stone spa)and sweat some good sweat, but there is no need for that now(laugh).
As for the live, I was doing it while testing many things. I know I am still very inexperienced, but I want to get expirience with this tour.
Sendai is alwas so intense every time. They probably are very proud that they are Teruki's home town.
I'm so kutakutakuya.

I like this one the best out of all the Sendai lives! It was very fun, but it was really really painful. It was so hot, and I was suffereing...I was about to give up in the middle(^_^
I just have a big feeling of acomplishment. Like "I worked very hard today!". I wonder if this just self satisfaction...It's fine even if it is though! Thank you to everyone who came today!
Anyways...Looking back, this was already the the 5th Sendai Terukinight. (Terukinight sounds very old, and I kind of like that)I would like to look back at all the new songs too.

NGAFﾂ…Kakusei Terukism

Nagata shock.
It's Teruki.
Today I got called from the company office, and I did a little bit of office work. Then, I got into a conversation about massages with the person at the desk. That person said there is a good massage place near the company office, so I went.
I first got counseling done, and with that as the foundation, I got my neck~back~waist massaged. Then, when I got my upper body naked and laid face down, and I heard some very unexpected words.
"Nagata-san, you have such nice muscles~!"
Muscles on this bean sprout-man!? I was very happy!
He asked me "Are you doing some kind of excercise?", so I got pretty carried away and answered "Well, yes. I need to have physical strength for my job.". But then...
Massage-person: "Nagata-san, you have very pretty muscles but...they're very stiff. If you leave it like this, your nerves are going to get pressured, and the function of your liver and stomach are going to weaken...Nagata-san, aren't your digestive organs weak now? Your metabolism seem very bad too"
Nagata: "It is very weak...(he wrote "yowai death")"
After the massage, he talked to me a lot about my body right now, but it seems to not be doing so well(^_^
Good night.

Mario-Kart o( ≧∀≦)o
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o it's Miku. Right now, I felt a really strong shake. Supposedly there was an earthquake. The epicenter's shake had about a 5 so, be careful!!
Yesterday I couldn't sleep so well. My head is always strangely clear after lives. But I woke up early today. I went to my friend's house to drop off Nyappy-chan o(・∀・)o We all played Mario Kart together. But everyone there, were people who brag and say "You know, I have a lot of confidence in Mario Kart" or "Watch my drift skills" and stuff(laugh) That's including me too. First, we did 8 games, and as a total I was last place. But then, we did a second try and gambled on this game. We challenged it and said whoever gets last place, has to buy juice for everyone!! As the result, I got 2nd place Ψ(｀∀´)Ψ I got juice o(・∀・)o My victorious Dekavita tasted so- good.
Then we all went to eat together, and I came back home☆
And right now, I'm thinking about the Wakayama live so I can't go to sleep (laugh)
Ah-. I'm nervous. But I'm excited o(≧∀≦)o Well then good night☆

Today was Takuya's hometown('-^*)/ Just like Teruki san's hometown, Sendai, today was a hot live too('-^*)/
After coming back to Japan and doing lives, I'm sweating more than I used to, but I'm not getting any more tired. Maybe this means my useless movements have decreased o(^^o)(o^^)o

This is Teruki! Thank you for today's Wakayama Club GATE!
I had heard that the hall was small, but I didn't think it was that small(-o-
As for the band, we said "For this part, let's just go with the flow of that place!" and we changed it around a bit from the usual, and it kind of became a special live. Well, I mean it was takuya's hometown afterall! That kind of content was just for today too. Yes, it's Takuya-night. Let's all go achieve our ambitions with everyone in Wakayama! Today was really fun! Thank you very much m(_ _)m

Is Wakayama Umeboshi?? o( ≧∀≦)o
("Umeboshi" is dried plum, but not the fruit kind. It's salty/sour or sweet/sour)
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o It's Miku☆ Today was a live in Wakayama. It was the smallest live-house of all the ones during this tour!! I don't know if it's because of that, but it was pretty hot and I lost myself. And, it was our first time there, so we wanted to completely engrave Antic Cafe into Wakayama!! It was also a live that everyone was anticipating for, or were excited for, so we wanted to make it a good live. Today I got to work so hard, that I forgot how hot it was. I didn't even notice that I was sweating. When I realized it, I was drenching wet o(≧∀≦)o These days, within myself, I look at lives as a battle. It's not like I fight against the Cafekkos or anything (laugh) It's with myself. Just having fun isn't enough. It's a battle I put my heart and soul in (｀・ω・´)b
And today, I tried diving. I used to do it a lot long time ago, but I hadn't done it in like 2 years. My thoughts after doing it was, it felt good. That's what I was really moved by. I thought I couldn't do it anymore. But, sorry to those people who got hurt with that!! But, thank you for letting me experience something so beautiful.
Also, also, did you all know Wakayama was famous for umeboshi. I didn't know that. The umeboshi I eat all the time is from Wakayama o(・∀・)o Kishuu is Wakayama. I say thanks to Wakayama. Well then, I'll keep working hard during the tour☆ Next is Fukuoka. Ganbarimassuru o(≧∀≦)o

I mean, the live-house is big too. We'll go wild tomorrow too!! I'm gonna go image-training now. I'll work hard to make it a success. Good niht. But, I'm hungry so I'll go eat some ramen.

Taspo Hell from Kanon
Yesterday was a live at takuya's hometown, Wakayama.
I got carried away by everyone and went completely wild(-ω-)ノシ
Today in the morning we went on the non-stop ride from Wakayama→Fukuoka
Then when we arrived at the hotel, a tragedy occured-!!
When I tried to buy some cigarettes
the hotel's cigarette vending machine had an age confirmation system, named Taspo, installed(。-ω-)
You need to send an application paper before-hand, that has your social security information and such attached, then they issue a card for you (similar to Suica, Icoca, Sugoca), but
that system hasn't been enforced yet over in the Kantou area, so I was procrastinating and didn't do it yet
There's a convenience store in front of the hotel, but they don't sell cigarettes.
There's none at all♪
But on the ride here I was sleeping the whole time so I didn't smoke that much, so I still have some left so I think it should be ok... ...
Is what I had thought(つω-。) *cries*
I went in bath and I'm in pajamas now, so
I'll just quietly go to sleep
Tomorrow is Hakata DRUM Logos. I'll go wild and mingle in with everyone
Oyasu-min min zemi

Music Scores.
This is Teruki.
Today we moved from Wakayama to Hakata, and the whole time during the drive I was checking the scores for Gokutama. I did 10 songs in one day today, but as I was writing details on the music notes, it reminded me of my school-days(^_^
I personally, hardly ever use the music notes. Even when I used to do copies of all these bands long time ago, I didn't look at the scores at all. You can get the basic rhythm pattern by just listening to the song, and you can get most of the fill by just listening too. When you can't catch it by ear, then you can just play your strongest phrase that you feel comfortable with. Because drumming is individuality.
Anyway, changing topics, but yesterday and today is very yatta-kusai for me. (I think "yatta kusai" is a phrase from a movie or something, but I don't know what it means...from the content of this entry I'm thinking maybe it's like "unlucky" or something)
First, yesterday after the live finished and I got back to the hotel, I realized that one of my piercings were missing. I did shake my head a lot in Sendai and Wakayama so maybe that's why...It wasn't the nail-kind, it was the ones you click together, so it must have been a pretty violent shake. A thumbs up for me.
Then next, I accidentally slept in this morning(*_*) And, because I was rushing and getting ready, I broke my cellphone charger...It's hard to explain it, but the cellphone and the cellphone charger won't seperate from each other. I'm really troubled with this.
And then, at the Hakata hotel. In the bathtub there was a body shampoo and a conditioner-in-shampoo, but I accidentally washed my hair with the body shampoo. It's all squeaking now. I feel like tomorrow when I sweat, my hair will become all frizzy.
Tomorrow is a Hakata live, which we hadn't had ever since Christmas! I'll do my best~☆ Good night.

An unexpected Mentaiko Joke.
("Mentaiko" is marinated roe of pollock)
This is Teruki.
Thank you for today's Hakata DRUM ROGOS!
It was twice the size of the halls in Sapporo~Wakayama, so I thought we were going to do the live in a little bit more calm way, but it was pretty much the same as the others(^_^
I guess we had a lot of new people today? In the beginning I felt like "hm...there's a distance here"(^_^
I personally like the Logos-san live-house the best, out of all the live-houses within the nation. I orginially felt that Be-1 is the one I have the most memories in. I went around a lot of tours with all kinds of senpais before. And Logos san is right next to it, and the way it's made is the same, and I also like how the ceiling is so high.
Tomorrow is Okayama! It's 2 consecutive lives, but we'll powerfully keep going-! You know, I'm very happy.
Good night.

Fukuoka Mentaiko o( ≧∀≦)o
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o it's Miku☆ Today was a live at Fukuoka♪ So far, it is the biggest stage out of this whole tour. When the stage is so big you need to move around a lot more, and the amount of tired-ness is crazy too. But, that tired-ness actually feels good. It's not like I'm a M though. Or no, maybe I am an M...M-suke, Mikusuke. It feels good to sweat. Anyway, I'm going to chase after my ideal-self. My mental state right now is Kakusei Heroism. It's exactly that. Were the Cafekkos in Fukuoka satisfied with today's live? I had so much fun. I could see everyone gradually getting more excited and that made me happy. Let's all play together again o(・∀・)o The next time we meet we'll come back even prettier.
But anyway, when you say Fukuoka you think food. I went again today. This place called "Futoppara" (fat stomach). The kaminari-yaki ramen (thunder-grilled ramen) and the Mentaiko pilaf is so good. When you abbreviate it, it's men-pira and yakira-. The yaki-ramen is also made in cup ramen so try eating it!!
Also, I'm sorry I flung out my microphone today. It hit someone. I'll be careful next time. Well then I'll do my best at tomorrow's Okayama live. The tour is so much fun. Oyasu-mikutee-(laugh) how nostalgic o(≧∀≦)o

Ha・Ka・Ta's Salt!! from Kanon
Hakata salt isn't from Hakata (the "Hakata salt" kanji is "伯方" but it's not from the city Hakata "博多")
It's from Ehime
We had a live today at Hakata LOGOS, but
it was so spacious and fun☆
Oh no, no it's not like it was fun only because it was spacious
Yes(-ω-)
Even in Wakayama, the backstage room was so small that we did our make up at the hotel and then entered the stage through the guest seats, but that was fun too
But today was fun too(>_<)
You know these days, when I go into the hall and stuff, I'm so tired, I'm all out of it, but
once I wear the costumes I get all energizetic-
Oh yeah yeah, during this tour we're going around all these places and doing lives, but
there's no such thing as a completely identical live
(even though I say they're different, we work hard to still keep the quality though)
No matter where we go, it's always a different live, so no matter where we go, I have fun
Even if someone asked me which one was the funnest live out of the tour, I wouldn't know the answer
It's what they call "only one"
What is it, "Sekai ni hitotsu dake no hana" or something(laugh)
(he's referring to a famous SMAP song here. In that song they say "not number one, but only one")
So anyway, right now every day is fun.
I'm excited to see how tomorrow's Okayama will turn out
I wrote something long like Teruki(laugh)
Well, I was talking to myself and this became a weird entry, but thank you for reading it (heart
I'll do my best tomorrow too☆

☆Hakata Live & Okayama Live☆
This is Yuuki(・ω・)/
5/10 was a Hakata live, and today was a Okayama live o(^▽^)o
We hadn't been to Hakata ever since Christmas, so I was a little worried whether I grew or not, but in the end I had fun at the live(*^-^)b
During the rehearsal at Okayama today, I could get the rhythm pretty well so it was easy to get the rhythm during the actual performance so it was a smooth live('-^*)/

Oka Mountain o( ≧∀≦)o
("yama" is mountain in Japanese. "Okayama" = "Oka mountain")
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o it's Miku. Today was a live at Oka Mountain♪♪ There were more people there than the last time so I was happy. Today was Mother's Day so I thought a little bit about my parents. Things like, if my mom wasn't here, then I wouldn't be here, and I wouldn't have been able to meet the Cafekkos that came to the live today, and also all the Cafekkos out there. But the fact that all kinds of things happened, and I arrived at this point is the truth. I am thankful for the fate that brought me here today. And thank you to Teruko o(≧∀≦)o Teruko is my mom.
So anyway, we got to do a fun live at Okayama too. I was actually contemplating whether to dive or not, but our manager was going to get mad at me so I stopped(laugh) Chicken-Mikusuke. I was really excited and I was getting myself ready the whole time to jump in though. I will fly in next time o(・∀・)o
Well then, next is Osaka. I'm looking forward to Osaka(｀・ω・´)b
Thank you, Oka Mountain. Let's play again. Bye nyappy Ψ(｀∀´)Ψ
☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Mother's Day.
This is Teruki.
Thank you for today's Okayama CRAZYMAMA KINGDOM!
Personally, the echoing of the sound in the hall today made performing really easy! Then I remembered I was thinking the same thing last time we came here.
The live was really nice and hot too! For me personally, I thought "I think I did some good drum playing today!" and it was a satisfying live. It was a nice atmosphere. Thank you very much m(_ _)m
Today, after we entered the hall, there was some time before rehearsals, so I went to this music instrument store near the train station. I think it took about 15 minutes to get there from the hall? I didn't have much time so I walked quickly and got there, but the product I was looking for wasn't there, so in the end it wasted energy(*_*) I usually love the country-side, but to be honest, today I thought "Tokyo is so convenient~"(^_^
At night I went to a bar with the PA, Minowa san, the Tech, Kaneko san, Nakayama san, and the make-person, Yuuko san. I learned a lot of things. I think I saw my goals for the last half of this year.
Good night.

Hercules.
This is takuya.
Yesterday was a live at Okayama-. For this time's tour I'm using 3 guitars, but one of them is really huge and heavy. Everyone calls it a rhinoceros beetle(laugh) Whenever I use this guitar, it's so heavy that I can't do the movements or play that I want to do. So, I took that into consideration yesterday and I worked really hard, but it still felt like I was being controlled by the guitar(laugh) I'll try getting used to playing it by tomorrow(・∀・)
Well then, I'll do my best at tomorrow's Osaka live-!

Trash Can o(≧∀≦)o

Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o it's Miku. Today was a day off in Osaka, so I went out to fully enjoy Osaka☆
It was one pretty fun day. I closed the day at the game center. I tried catching a Rilakkuma garbage can with the UFO catcher, but I just couldn't get it at all. I was determined to get it so I used up about 3,000 yen (around $30) but I couldn't get it(;_
("Kani" is crab in Japanese. "Tashikani-" means "very true". "kani" is in "tashikani"...get it? XD)
Ok then, I'm going to sleep now!! I'll do my best at Osaka(≧∀≦)

Sengoku Otome from Kanon
(Sengoku Otome means "War country maiden" or something)
Yesterday was a Okayama live
Thank you-
It was 2 consecutive days of lives, but I didn't especially have any change in my physical condition and I was healthy
I was trained well with the 4 days in a row overseas lives
The food is good too
Today we left the Okayama hotel a little before noon, and got to Osaka around 3
We had a radio recording at 9 so we were going to leave the hotel at 8:30, so we had free time until then, but
Spark misunderstood the recording which was supposed to be 1 month later, so
in the end we had one whole day off☆ These kinds of schedule changes feel very good
But when it's something you thought was nothing and there actually was something, I become like this... (´Д｀)
So I went to Nippon Bashi by myself
Mandarake was out of business, and
there was a notice on the shutter saying K-BOOKS was OPEN
I randomly looked and wandered around
Then I thought, oh yeah- the movie "Higurashi no naku koro ni" has started now, so
I went to the Nanba? movie theater near Marui and also the Sennichimae movie theater, but it wasn't doing it yet, so
I just wandered on towards the Shinsai Bashi area and
the Pin Ball house caught my eye
or more like the words "Sengoku Otome" caught my eye
and I thought, ahh I wanted to do Sengoku Otome
so I floated inside.
I only had about 2,000 yen (around $20) in my wallet, so
I thought I don't have that much money to waste, so I started playing
I won big with \1,500 yen
Ya-y
When I play randomly sometimes, I win
When I get all into it and say ok- I'll do it now- and face it fully prepared, I usually lose
But saying how much I won is too sleezy so I'll keep quiet
And, my wallet got warmed up, so I went to the convenience store and bought JUMP and food and went back to my room and relaxed
☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Umeda.
This is Teruki.
Today we moved from Okayama to Osaka. We got here pretty early so I went to the usual music instrument shop I always go to.
I safely bought the head that I couldn't buy yesterday and as usual there were lo-ts of vintage snares, so I was looking at them the whole time. It was a nice view...Fufufu(*-_-*) I didn't think I'd come to love drums this much.
For this tour I'm using 3 snares on one stage (as a side note, all 3 of them I bought at this store). I compare it to baseball and I'm calling them "starter, middle, hold", but at first when we started the Japan tour, the "hold" was the only one that was awkward still. The sound that I was looking for during the second half of the live, and the general strong point and weak point of that snare actually wasn't coming together just right. Even at Sapporo after the live, one of the company people told me "Hm~ the third one is just a little off...Do you want to switch to a different one starting from the Takasaki live?" I was also thinking to myself "I guess it won't work out afterall...", but when I discussed it with Minowa san, he said "Just try working with him a little bit more", so I stuck with him for the Takasaki live too. I took into consideration it's bad points from Sapporo, and I worked on the tuning a little bit more. Then, supposedly it was really good☆(←I can't hear the outside sound so this is just the evaluation from the people around me)
So, at that point I didn't exactly get a response that clicked with me, but at Sendai I got an even better response, and then from Wakayama→Hakata→Okayama I started to pull out more and more of it's charm, and I newly discovered points like "this kind of sound is nice too!". It felt like another something sprouted inside my ear. Because I started to work well with this "hold", my width of drumming has definitely broadened. Kind of like opening up the heart of a very badly behaved student(laugh) Now it's the cutest one to me♪ I just want more volume from it though.
So anyway...
At first when the Japan tour started, I was thinking "when I go to Osaka I'll buy a new "hold" to replace this one", but today I just looked at the shop and just recuperated my eyes(^_^)
At night, I had Yuuko san cut my hair. I had her cut my hair while I watched SMAPXSMAP, but I guess before that, it was doing Kimutaku's dorama, but Yuuko san was passionately talking to me about Kimutaku's charm. Hm, tomorrow I want to see Kanon san's Kimutaku, since I haven't seen it in a while.
Just before I was going to post this entry up, I read takuya's entry. It's kind of similar to mine(laugh)
So anyway, during the second half of the live, pay close attention to takuya holding the big rhinoceros beetle with all his might. When takuya goes wild, please try to imagine the scene where the big rhinoceros beetle tries to run away, and he captures it saying "Hey, wait you! Stay still!".
Good night.

There's no way-!
This is Teruki.
Today we arrived at Kanazawa a little after noon. After that I went shopping a little with takuya and Yuuko san, but by the time we said "it's almost 2 hours until we meet up for dinner", we were so unbearably hungry, that we went to go buy donuts. takuya and I got 1 each, and Yuuko san ended up buying a box.
At night we all went to go eat, including the staff-san. I feel that the reassuring tour staff-san who are supporting AnCafe for us, seem to be having a lot more fun this tour, compared to last time's tour☆This is just my thought, but I think that the reason for that is, because the members are giving a lot more this time and are really into the live. I'm really feeling a reponse from this tour. Every single person is really looking up, and are all hungry, and I feel that every day, even though it's little by little, we are all getting cooler. And above all, I think the enthusiasm that says "I want to make this band more and more cool!" is completely different from last time's tour.
As our goods, we're selling the New Year's live DVD right now, but to be honest, I don't really like that DVD much(^_^
Out of all the 22 lives in this tour, we only have 4 more left(^-^) I'll do my best~! I feel that once we finish this, we can finally stand on the start line.
Good night.

Arrive at Kanazawa o( ≧∀≦)o
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o it's Miku. Today we had the driver-san drive us from Nagoya to Kanazawa!! I got questions asking "did you eat chicken wings at Nagoya??" but yes, I ate them o(・∀・)o I ate them at this place called Furaibou!! But Nagoya has really good Tenmusu (rice balls with tempura or other fried things inside) too. Long time ago, I got some from the fans as a gift and I remember it was really good. Well afterall, Nagoya is the first place AnCafe went on a tour to perform in. There's all kinds of memories.
But anyway, on our way to Kanazawa we stopped by a parking (like a rest stop where you can buy food), but there was a menu there that was God-like. Ikura-Uni-Don (salmon roe, sea urchin rice bowl). It was 580 yen. This is crazy. It's too cheap. And it was good. It's so nice when you're close to the sea!! Seafood is crazy good. Long time ago I used to hate sea urchin, but after I became an adult, I like it now. Growing old is scary...
And then, after we arrived at Kanazawa, a lot of un-nyappy things happened. But there were also a lot of lucky things too, which was almost creepy. I was a little creepy today. Mr. God, please stop playing games with me like this(;_
Do-re-mi-fa-do-nuts♪

Capybara san

Yesterday, after we arrived at Kanazawa, we all went out to eat together, and after that I went to a rock bar with the staff-sans. We talked about the band, guitar, and other completely un-related things, and it was really fun listening to those things~!
Oh yeah, the Nagoya live became a very good live for me personally, but I feel like I found some things I can possibly still keep growing in.
Well then, I'll do my best at tomorrow's Kanazawa live!

This is Teruki! Thank you for today's Kanazawa Eight Hall!
Today was a great live too! It was fun, and hot, and I think I got to put good scores on myself too. I thought the performance of the instruments group was pretty well unified too☆ Yeah~ it was so much fun! There was a lot of energy. Thank you everyone!
Tomorrow is a live event with other bands, which AnCafe hasn't done in a while. But the other bands are such big people, I'm actually a little scared too...Well, tomorrow we'll just aim to be the most different band. We don't need the people who see AnCafe for the first time to think "this band is nice!". If people think "What is this band? They're kind of weird!" that would be a win for me. It's ok if we're "weird guys". I want to plant our very strong individuality into their heads.
To those Cafekkos who are coming to tomorrow's JCB Hall, please don't hesitate or give in to the people around you. I think it's good if you guys make the other bands' fans step back a little. Let's all go wild together and get treated like weird people!
Good night.

Kanazawa→ Uchuuken o( ≧∀≦)o
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o it's Miku. Today was a live at Kanzawa!! We're glad that we could come to such a big city. But, today I had a different kind of nervousness from the usual. It was a nervousness that had my sad feelings knowing that the tour is going to end very soon. I think for the first half I was totally stiff and not looking at the audience at all. But around the 3rd song, I saw the Cafekkos singing along with smiles, and I lost all my nervousness. I think I'm always getting helped by everyone at those kinds of moments. During Nanairo Crayon, it was like that too. For that song, I have time to really slowly look at everyone, so I have those kinds of feelings all the time☆ Times when the Cafekkos give us a smile or a cheer, is the times I get the most encouragement.
But, today hurt. I was so excited I don't remember so well, but I guess I fell weirdly somewhere, and I hit my butt Ψ(｀∀´)Ψ Right now it really hurts too, and I can't put my butt on the bed so I'm sleeping sideways o(・∀・)o Well, I guess I'll just make it another memory. Also, at Kanazawa I tried out a new way of pouring water on myself. And then, I felt like the audience was laughing at me. I did it trying to act cooly though(laugh) I'll check back on the video.
So anyway, Kanazawa safely ended. I'll carry everyon'es energy today on my back, and do my best at tomorrow's band-collaboration event. To say the truth, I'm still nervous right now, and I can't go to sleep. But today, I promised everyone at the very end, so I will never lose feeling-wise!!
Thank you.
And then after the live ended, we went to eat at this place called Uchuuken. It was good. The picture is of that.
Well then, I'll try my best to sleep. Good night o(≧∀≦)o

Thank you o( ≧∀≦)o
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o it's Miku. Today was PATINIGHT. We got to perform with bands with abundant individuality and also with bands I've been looking up to since long time ago, so I was pretty nervous o(・∀・)o
I'm especially a big fan of Nishikawa san (Abingdon Boys School vocalist) and FLOW san so I was so nervous I was about to faint, I only slept for about 2 hours today. But I read the messages from the fans that I got before the live and I got energy. It made me think how much the fans know about me. When I was nervous they gave me a message that said "We'll rile up the hall with you guys so let's work hard together". It really hit my heart, and as I was watching the guests enter, through the monitor, I was really happy when I discovered Cafekkos. It made me think how I really need to do my best.
And then during the actual stage performance. My heart was pounding so much, but the hall was really warm. Everyone was nice, and it really touched me. I really thanked the Cafekkos who worked hard with us, and also to everyone in the hall who gave us some of their strength. The only reason why I could work hard today was because of everyone's help. I will never forget today. The fact that I got to stand on such a wonderful stage like that. And, the kindness I recieved from everyone will forever be a treasure to me.
And all the performers there were really nice too. Everyone talked to us in the same level, and it made me less nervous. Thank you very much.
I don't know if it's because I'm relieved, but I feel like I can sleep deeply today. Good night everyone o(≧∀≦)o

Kanazawa～PATi Night(- ω-) from Kanon
Yesterday was a live at Kanazawa 8 Hall-
It was so much fun, and it was such a good live that I could come back to Tokyo with confidence☆
I fought with Miku more than usual(laugh (I'm not sure if he means they fought. The Kanji is "karamu" which is literally "entangle" but it means "involved with" or "quarrel")
So, with the same vigor we had from the start of this tour at Sapporo and all the way to Kanazawa, we went straight to the magazine PATI PATI's event, PATI Night @ JCB Hall today
The stage's width was wide compared to the hall, and you could go all the way to the edge, and it felt good☆
As we got supported by the Cafekko's cheers, I think we got to do a very us-like live(>_<)
Thank you
And then, when I came back home for the first time in a while, the air purifier was left on at the lowest condition(-ω-
I was pretty shocked-
Well, if it was left in the strongest condition and working so hard the whole time, I would've bit my tongue
I'm glad it was the lowest☆
Tomorrow is a photoshoot so I'll go to sleep now
I feel like I'll see good dreams today(-ω-*)

Usoppachi Night.
("Usoppachi" means a lie. And "Pati" is pronounced "pachi")
This is Teruki! Thank you for today's JCB Hall "Pati Night"!
I woke up super early today. After the continuous schedule up until now, and then waking up early today→Airplane was tiring, to say the truth(*_*) But the live was really fun!
First off the hall itself was strange. The arena was standing, and the 1~3 levels were reserved seats. The capacity was a lot, but it didn't feel as big.
As we were surrounded by a bunch of super senpais, my heart was totally scared during the live(^_^
And, after our performance ended, it was our studying time(^_^
Also, there was a very happy happening☆ I got to meet the people I love...It was good I came to Tokyo.
Well anyhow, to those Cafekkos who came to participate today, we worked hard together, right☆ You guys are really reliable. Thank you!
Good night.

Today we had a photoshoot for Zy. san in the evening. Speaking of Zy. san, do you all know they have this corner called "A look at the work"? Last month or this month, on the edition with Kanon san on there as a solo, the "A look at the work" corner, had an interview from the desk person at our company office. After I read that, I finally realized something(*_*) I was always asking them to do all kinds of work, as if it was a given thing. I think that person's work is increasing more and more. If I say it in reverse, without that person, all kinds of work won't function anymore...I'm very thankful, very thankful m(_ _)m
Just a side note, after today's photoshoot, the camera man san was getting an interview done for the "A look at the work"(^-^)

Today was a photoshoot
We were out on a tour so we hadn't had a photoshoot in a while
And then, these past few days we've been having continuous lives, so I've been putting spray in my hair and stuff so my hair was about to get suffocated, so
I went to Harajuku's Punk Man's place for a treatment
Miku said he's gonna go, so Yuuki and I trailed along as a last minute, but I guess they didn't have enough workers, so they were troubled (sweat drop

One Nyappy day o(≧∀≦ )o
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o it's Miku. Today I did a photoshoot for Pati Pati san, with my pet dog, Nyappy. I got to play a lot with Nyappy during the photoshoot so it was good. Because I hadn't been able to play with her that much after I came back from the tour o(・∀・)o So, I think today was a very good day for Nyappy. She looked so happy during the photoshoot. Of course, I was happy too though o(≧∀≦)o
During the interview, I talked about all kinds of things I wanted to let everyone know. Things about myself recently and other stuff, I think it'll unravel my human nature. Please, buy one and read it.
Also also, today, I recieved all the tour presents, and letters and such o(≧∀≦)o Thank you. I read them in bath just now. I think I like sitting in bath and reading letters. As I take out my tiredness, my heart also gets purified with everyone's supporting messages Ψ(｀∀´)Ψ
Ok then, I'll play the guitar a little bit now. I'll work hard o(≧∀≦)o

Today we had an interview in the evening. Then after that we went to the company office and sorted out all the letters and presents sent to us.
We didn't have time to recieve all the letters and presents from Wakayama~Okayama after each live, so we had them sent to the company office. It's a little late, but we recieved all of them. Thank you very much m(_ _)m
On the day we did Nanba Hatch, takuya's mom brought us some gifts m(_ _)m and among them was Nagata's number 1 favorite, "Kimchee crackers". It's super good. And it's super spicy. There are a bunch of kimchee flavored snacks in this world, but this one is a super kimchee flavor. And, it's really a pretty strong spicy-ness. After a while you start to regret you ate it. But, you can't stop. You just can't help but keep eating.
Oh yeah, and today Yuuki...

Tomorrow is NHK o( ≧∀≦)o
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o it's Miku. I was playing Monhan at my house with my friends the whole time from yesterday to this evening. My head is completely a game brain. Of course, I slept in between though. But you know, I was using the large sword up until now, but right now I'm using the pair swords o(・∀・)o Chopping up the monster with a boisterous dance feels so good. The defense tool I'm using is the giraffe-san. It's skills are stamina, avoiding ability, attack re-strengthening, divine protection of the spirit. I'm using it all o(≧∀≦)o
But anyway, tomorrow is the NHK live. I'm so excited and nervous that I've been forgetting myself and jumping around the whole time since around 10. The more I do image training, the more I get excited. But, I'll make it a fun live Ψ(｀∀´)Ψ I'll be nervous, but I'm gonna do my best. I'll go with the feelings, where I'll be enjoying my nervousness o(≧∀≦)o Afterall, I have the Cafekkos with me(｀・ω・´)b I'm reading the letters and such and getting energized.
The picture is fried rice. I cooked for the first time in a while. The taste is really good.
Well then, I'll continue with my image training now. Bye nyappy o(≧∀≦)o

Should be read by all NHK participants.
This is Teruki.
Yesterday was the NHK gene-pro. And today was a day off.
Today was a nice weather too, so I went out for a walk. I went to Yoyogi Park, B district specially prepared stage, in front of NHK hall, and Shibuya CC Lemon Hall, I walked a lot. It looked like NHK Hall was doing aiko san's live. I want to go next time. The drums for those kinds of songs are very interesting too.
Tomorrow is the last performance for the Japan tour. We have a very important announcement, and we want to make it a very our-style beautiful live with tons of smiles.
Anyway, speaking of NHK, what do you all think of when you hear that word? When I was small, they were doing a kid's show called "Okaasan to issho, niko niko pun" (together with mom, smiley smiley) The characters that came out were Jajamaru, Piccoro, Porori.
I will say it again Jajamaru, Piccoro, Porori.
And there was also Nintama Rantarou. That show is long too.
I'll say it again. It's Nintama.
We'll do a good live tomorrow too! I think our feelings right now will come out in sound. Please accept it.
Good night.

Pure Cafe au lait from Kanon
Right now I'm at company office on standby-.
I'm really excited for today-(>_<)
Yesterday was a day off, so I went to watch "Higurashi no naku koro ni -movie version-"-
I got an early ticket a while ago so I used that(-ω-)☆
Mid-way through I got sleepy, and then I woke up with the loud sound where he said "That's a lie!!" (bitter smile
When I got back home, I got a mail from the make-up person, Yuuko san
She said she found the Higurashi manga, and she wanted to know from which part she should read it.
I had been recommending it for a while now, but what a timing(-ω-
I'll do my best today too!

This is Yuuki(・ω・)/
Today was a NHK live! And today was exactly one year since the first live after I joined('-^*)/
Getting to do a live at NHK with the members, staff, and Cafekkos on the 1st year after the first live after Takuya and I joined, is something I will really never forget(=^▽^=)

ＮＨＫo(≧∀≦)o
Nyappy o(≧∀≦)o it's Miku. Today was the long awaited NHK Hall live!! The hall really is big. And in front of us were a lot of Cafekkos. It feels too good. Today was exactly one year since the 5 of us did our first live together. This one year had a lot of tough times. But, what became our support were the Cafekkos. And being able to continue for 5 years was thanks to Bou kun.
I went around this time's tour holding those feelings inside. Because I don't want to forget the past. Even when you look back in the past, you won't find tomorrow. But, I won't forget. That's why I went in with the Hibiya feelings. For me, that time was the most moving moment. I didn't want to experience that kind of deep emotion again. That is something I can't experience without the Cafekkos. Because it's something we make together. So, for this time's tour, I threw out my whole soul. I worked so hard I could collapse, and I used all my might to put my emotions in the songs and make it reach everyone. I'd be really happy if it reached everyone. I know myself, that I'm still very inexperienced, but emotion-wise I won't lose to anyone o(・∀・)o
I got scolded by Ryon Ryon sensei a lot today (laugh) I knew myself, that I was really bad too, so even though I'm going to America tomorrow, I want to conquer that there. This time's tour had a lot of things to gain. I figured out what was important to me.
We broke into the 5th year, but Kanon, Yuuki, Teruki, takuya and I will keep working hard o(≧∀≦)o
Let's make this year a fun year Ψ(｀∀´)Ψ Thank you very much for today. I love you all o(・∀・)o Bye nyappy o(≧∀≦)o

Some day this song will.
This is Teruki. Thank you for today's Tokyo NHK Hall!
Big places really do feel good! Seeing a lot of people become one with our performance really is a very pleasant feeling. And, today I heard everyone's singing voices a lot. It's heartening. Most of all, it's a moment where you get a lot of courage.
Personally, today was somewhat a satisfying finish. I got to clearly feel the parts we played with good rhythm and the parts where we strongly expressed ourselves with our performance. For the 2 medium tempo songs that we did today, I was really into the expression, and my heart really got heated.
I said this after the Nagoya live too, but...this past year, I really realized so many times, how powerless and what a pathetic human I am. The one thing that I can do, is to play the drums with all my might. But, by being a member of this band and playing the drums, if I can be of any support to anyone, then there's no other beautiful lifestyle I could have. Every time I feel my powerless-ness, I can deeply feel how fortunate I really am right now.
The NGAW Japan tour is finished with today, thank you very much to everyone who came m(_ _)m Next is the Summer outdoor live. Right now, I'm very excited for that live. I want to become passionate with everyone, and make the number one memory of this year's summer. It's AnCafe and the Cafekko's festival☆ I think it'll be a great live, similar to none we've had up until now! Right now we're planning all kinds of things, and I'm really excited(^-^)
Good night. Thank you for needing us.

Thank you-
This is takuya.
Yesterday was a live at NHK-! Exactly one year passed, since the first live after I joined, but as I was standing on that stage, I really felt how fast this one year went by. It was a very content thick one year, but I want to make it an even more content thick one year!
We'll be off to America now. Well then-☆
☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Leave it to me.
This is Teruki.
Shortly we'll be leaving to America. I love the flights to America. I think I wrote this in the blog before too, but you can see today's sunrise once more. Isn't that amazing? This is a time machine(^-^)
This tour is really progressive. Thanks to the Europe cafekkos, we got refined even more, and during the Japan tour, we really got a lot of courage and power m(_ _)m We'll fully show the Ancafe style to America too! And once Korea is over, we'll say "thank you" to everyone again, in June. We'll get to say thank you to every single person, for a change. I want to hurry up and meet everyone.
I'm so happy I was born on Earth-!!!
I'll be off☆
Is that true?
