Arpeggio of Aoki Kougeio" Trident last live report: New song and new PV were also unveiled only on this day!

Trident, a three-member female unit born from the TV anime "Aoki Kougane no Arpeggio - Ars Nova," has released one single, two mini-albums, and two full-length albums since its debut in 2013. 2015 saw the release of their first live performance, which was much anticipated by fans, and even led to the release of a movie version of the same title. The company has stepped up its game along with its animated works.

On April 3, 2016, Trident's last live "Thank you for your "BLUE" @ Makuhari Messe" was held. Mai Fuchigami, who played Iona, Aimi Numakura, who played Takao, and Hibiki Yamamura, who played Haruna, took the stage to show their final performance in front of an audience of 8,000 people.

In the hall before the event began, fan support message boards and an "Arpeggio"-spec wrap-around car were on display, and many visitors took commemorative photos. The producer of Flying Dog also personally sold pamphlets to deepen his friendship with the fans, and everyone in the hall created an atmosphere suitable for the finale.

The last live started with the screening of a documentary film. The members of Trident were shown talking about their feelings toward the dissolution of the band and reminiscing about their memories. The words "happy unit" and "it was good to be the three of us" conveyed that the three years had been invaluable to the girls as well.

The three girls appeared in pure white dresses. Fuchigami's blue, Numakura's red, and Yamamura's yellow image colors were decorated on the hem of their skirts, bringing out their cute charms. During their solo parts, fans' wireless penlights shone in their respective colors to support the girls' voices throughout the hall. The second song "Purest Blue" followed. The audience was so excited that it was hard to believe that the show had just started.

During the MC part, the three members introduced themselves by saying "We are Trident! and they thanked the audience of 8,000, four times as many as at their first live performance. They revealed that they would be singing all Trident songs tonight, "It's going to be a long night, so we're going to keep going! and moved on to the third song, "Lovely Blue. Fuchigami performed Iona's famous line "Rapid Senko~" during the rap part. Numakura and Yamamura attracted the audience's attention with their lovely choreography of making heart-shaped hands in front of Fuchigami. They then sang "Sentimental Blue" and "Blue Rain," songs with "Blue" in the title, one after another.

The duet stage featured Takao x Iona, Iona x Haruna, and Haruna x Takao, in that order, and an MC corner was also provided, and it was impressive to see the shy expressions on the members' faces as they said, "It feels fresh to talk alone with just the two of us. They talked about their honest feelings, which they could only talk about now that they have accumulated so much over the years, and expressed their joy at having built a frank relationship with each other.

Moving to the solo stage, Fuchigami took the stage wearing a dress with feathers on the back. He echoed his solo song "starlight" in the laser lights as if he were trapped in a bird cage. She then called out, "Come here! a blue bird appeared on the back screen and perched on Fuchigami's right hand. Fuchigami, who loves birds, invented this stage direction himself, and the audience applauded loudly. Numakura followed with, "I've upped my 'femininity' today! and "I've upped my 'femininity' today!" Numakura showed off a dress with a red bust, and Yamamura, who is called "madam" on the radio, showed off a dress inspired by a noblewoman. Yamamura, who is called "madam" on the radio, showed off a dress inspired by a noblewoman. She enjoyed the applause of the fans.

After the solos, the three members of Trident regrouped. Fuchigami then surprised the audience by saying, "I'm going to play a new song! Fuchigami surprised the audience by saying, "We're going to play a new song! The audience was in an uproar at the unusual announcement of a new song even though it was the last live performance. When it was revealed that a new video featuring dancing characters would be shown, the audience erupted in joy.

The new song "Blue Horizon" was an up-tempo number that would look great live. Trident's dance moves were also synchronized with Iona and the other characters in the new video. The timing of the fans' cheers to the new song was perfect, and the stage was made possible by the fact that Trident has been loved by so many fans.

While the afterglow of the show was still lingering, a further video was shown. The members of Blue Steels, a male unit of "Arpeggio," were shown on the screen. Kazuyuki Okitsu, who plays Chihaya Gunzo, Eiji Miyashita, who plays Kashihara Kyouhei, and Shinobu Matsumoto, who plays Oribe Monk, appeared on stage and unexpectedly jacked the live performance. We are the stars of the stage from here on! and sang a total of five songs, including "Egaomania.

The audience went wild with excitement. The audience was as enthusiastic as Trident's, with the audience calling out for the captain of the ship and waves of excitement doubling and tripling throughout the hall.

Trident, who took the stage three times, looked frustrated to see this undercurrent of excitement, saying, "You were so excited! He seemed to be frustrated. Not to be outdone by them, the group made a last spurt with "Blue Snow," "Blue Destiny," and other theme songs from the movie version. The finale was "BLUE," the title of the live, and they left the stage saying "Thank you very much! and left the stage.

However, the calls for encores did not stop, and Trident and Blue Steels appeared on stage together. For the last live, Trident and "Arpeggio" sang their last song "Blue Field -Finale-" with fans joining in. The harmony of the lyrics "All I see" filled the entire venue with a special sense of unity.

Trident, who remained on stage, confided their feelings one by one. Yamamura said, "Thank you so much for making me and us Trident," and Numakura said, "I hope we were able to show you here everything we can do. ...... I love you all! Numakura said, "I hope we were able to show you all what we could do here.

Fuchigami thanked the two for "really being next to me" and for the past three years and said to the fans, "Please don't forget that Trident was here for a long, long time. He concluded by saying, "The three of us together were Trident! Fuchigami, Numakura, and Yamamura left the stage separately. Fans cheered warmly after the show, and the last live ended with a grand circle that lasted more than five hours.
