i☆Ris" excitedly united with the audience at the final performance of their second national tour "i☆Ris 2nd Live Tour 2016" in Tokyo.

i☆Ris, a popular voice-over idol unit, held the final concert of their nationwide live tour "i☆Ris 2nd Live Tour 2016" at Zepp Tokyo on May 21 to coincide with the release of their 2nd album "Th!s ! The final performance of their live tour "i☆Ris 2nd Live Tour 2016" was held at Zepp Tokyo on May 21.

Six members of i☆Ris appeared on stage with laser beams flying around the stage. They opened the show with three catchy numbers, "Dream Parade" and "Bright Fantasy," both of which were OP songs of "Pripara," and "§Rainbow," a classic song from their early days and the ED song of "Pretty Rhythm Rainbow Live. The audience was calling for the song from the very beginning, and the six members were also actively encouraging the audience by speaking out between lyrics and turning their microphones toward the audience to heat up the entire stage. As Dorothy West, played by Azusaki Shibuya in "Pripara," used to say, "Tension is maxed!

After showing the cheerful and bright i☆Ris, the members were introduced. Yu Serizawa said, "I learned about 'championship' (otaku term) in this tour. Isn't the "Yu" in "championship" the "Yu-chan" of "Yu"? The audience cheered loudly when she made a scowl, and Saki Yamakita and Nikkika Akaneya, who were standing next to her, immediately gave her physical criticisms (laughter). Nikkika Akaneya, referring to her catchphrase, "Sweat dripping good woman," asked the audience, "Can we all sweat together today? and a call-and-response. Yuki Wakai and Miyu Kubota skillfully asked the audience to turn their psylliums to the color of their image, creating a perfect sense of unity with the audience.

The first half of the stage started with a medley of "Yumeno Tsubasa" and "Kokoro no otto," followed by a succession of passionate and cool songs, which could be said to be the concept of the first half of the stage. The black lamé black tailcoat-like dress and short shorts were a perfect match for their coquettish costumes. The second

The songs were mainly composed by the individual members who were not all six members, which was one of the topics of the 2nd album.

The darkening of the stage after each song also helped to create such an adult and stylish mood.

The live postrecording corner, which is a regular part of i☆Ris live performances (the cast is shuffled for each performance), started with the six members standing in front of stand microphones with scripts in their hands, and even on stage they looked like "voice actors.

This drama is a funny story about six girls from the vampire kingdom who have two or three different habits, and who are forced to form an idol unit by order of the king, who has become an idol geek. ...... In the scene where they think of self-introductions, each member parodies a catchphrase from i☆Ris. Yamakita-san asked "Who do you like? To-sama, Zee-sama ...... No, Ka-sama," a pun on Sakisa-mama, a story about a mother. Akaneya-san, a fan of the Sentai series, said, "Vampire Purple Bal! and then she struck a tokusatsu hero pose. In the scene where Ms. Shibuya was appealing her dance experience, the audience was amazed at her brilliant Cossack dance. In another scene, she went to the women's area and showed off her handsome voice, which was the complete opposite of the goofy character she plays, and was cheered by the yellow crowd. Ms. Kubota drew laughter with her weird forklift dance, which is not a robot dance, and she frequently ad-libbed her lines by inserting her favorite food, yogurt. Serizawa's character is a straight-up cute character, but her ad-libs were also very clever, and Wakai's low boyish acting was also very well suited to the role.

The climax of the drama, the impromptu vampire idol stage performance, was directly followed by the next number, "Vampire Lady," a meta and seamless flow that made me grin. Yamakita's mocking line "It's only you," which she interjects in the middle of the number, drew loud cheers from the audience.

In the second half of the show, the dancers changed into cute white dresses and started with "YuRuYuRu Happy Days. The dancing with the umbrellas was superb!　The interlude between Ms. Wakai and Ms. Shibuya was not only a dialogue but also a proper play between the two lovers, which filled the venue with chilled voices (laughter).

The next song "Kirari" was followed by the so-called "masterpieces" corner. The performance continued with cheerful, bright and fun numbers that were "typical of i☆Ris". The costumes of the second half matched the composition of the songs and contrasted vividly with the first half. Incidentally, the interval between the first half and the second half was an intermission with a 3-minute video, so the members had to change quickly. Mr. Wakai revealed the difficulty of this during the MC, where he unintentionally spoiled the fact that there would be an encore by saying, "You will change into different costumes for the encore," (laughter). (Laughter). During the encore, Mr. Yamakita made a point of this.

The climax of the stage was a series of standard songs, or "special move" numbers, such as "Make it!　These special songs can only be performed after many live performances, and having such songs is a real strength of i☆Ris. Also, as is evident in "Gensyoku WONDER LAND," i☆Ris' dance choreography often includes little stanzas (theatrics) in line with the lyrics. The choreography of i☆Ris's dances are often accompanied by little stanzas (theatrical performances) in line with the lyrics! Prism☆Voice," the girls have gained stage experience over the past year, and their stunts seem to have become more emotionally rich.

In the encore, which began with a generous round of applause, the girls made the audience feel at home with their free-talking introduction of goods, and when they introduced their special large tote bags made by ......, they asked, "Do you think YUUKI-chan will fit in one of them? As soon as Mr. Shibuya said, "Do you think Yuki-chan can fit in the bag? At ......, the customary commemorative photo was taken in the winning pose, with the six in T-shirts, half in white and half in black, which was thoughtfully paired in the formation of the encore song.

Then they sang the OP song of the current "Pripara", "Ready Smile! the OP song of the current "Pripara. The single was released on June 1, so many fans may have heard the full-size version for the first time.　The flow from the latest song to their debut song "Color" was exquisite.

After the six members gave their own comments on the tour, the last song was "Th!s ! The last song of the show was "Raspberrynight" from "Th!s ! The last song was a moist "Raspberrynight" from "Th!s !

i☆Ris has become a major artist, but after each song, they bowed deeply, saying "Thank you! and bowing deeply after each song, and their stance of wanting to unite with their fans to make the live more exciting was very sincere and showed how close they are with their fans in a good way. The live performance heightened expectations for the upcoming Budokan in the fall.

At this live, it was announced that i☆Ris would be in charge of the OP of "Onmyoji of the Twins" from the July season, and that the single would be released in August.
