Eri Kitamura's solo live "KiTAxERI ◆ CARNiVAL ◆ 2017 - re:birth -" was held at Ebisu The Garden Hall in Tokyo on Saturday, August 19, 2017. The lead song "arcadia † paroniria" and three other songs from the single to be released on September 27 (Wed.) were performed for the first time, and the next one-man live was already announced.



Kitaeri's live show was moving forward at a furious pace!



Speaking of Ms. Kitamura, she released a mini-album "Revolution [re:i]" on March 22 (Wed), the first item of her resumed music activities, and held a premium live "Zero-rei-" on April 2 (Sun) at club 1ne2wo, Building 12, ESP Academy Tokyo School. We have already reported that the band has made a complete comeback (# ), and it has been about 4 months since that live. The venue was filled with Kitaerists (a general term for Mr. Kitamura's fans) who could not wait for the show to start and were eagerly awaiting the start of the live. As soon as the doors opened, the venue was filled with excitement. The venue was larger than the previous show, and the venue was again filled to capacity with Kitaerists.

When the live started, Ms. Kitamura appeared on stage in a white costume. Her headdress and fingerless gloves were all white, but the stripes on the sides and the ribbon tied at the back of her waist were black, making her look even more radiant on stage.

Ms. Kitamura chose her new song "DiVE to GiG -K- AiM," released on Wednesday, July 26, as the opening song. The audience was excited from the start of the song, "Let's go! The choreography of this song, for which a choreography lecture was given at the release commemorative event held on July 29 (Sat.), is available on the website. The Kitaerists, who had studied the choreography well in advance, were excited to perform the same moves as Mr. Kitamura on stage. Jump! Bloom! FUWAFUWA," "Hey Hey Time," "Dedicate me," and "Make hearts.

However, the live performance had just begun.

Welcome to "KiTAxERI ◆ CARNiVAL ◆ 2017 - re:birth -! Let's get excited! to which the audience responded with shouts of joy, foreshadowing more excitement to come.

The audience responded with shouts of "Let's go up! After the song, which was written with the order of "a sharp song with mendacious lyrics," the audience was united by the words "Ebisu ni Kitaeri ga Kita !!!!!" and went on to the MC corner. and went on to the MC corner. She was concerned about the packed venue and pointed out several cameras (including a crane camera) set up at the venue. Mr. Kitamura stirred up the audience even more. He then asked, "Kitaeri? I love it!" and "It's the best! After a call-and-response that sounded like a movie promo, Kitamura made the audience laugh with a self-deprecating joke about how he had finally reached the 30-year-old mark on his birthday on August 16. However, as if to say that getting older is a sign that one is stepping up, he said, "All I have to do now is go crazy! and showed his enthusiasm.

The members were introduced: YOSHIHIRO (from Guild) on guitar, vivi (from Festrump) on bass, and shinya, a.k.a. "Oyakata" on drums, all of whom have been supporting the live show since the last premium live. The audience was treated to a live performance of the band's newest members. After introducing himself, he said, "I'm Eri Kita, the vocalist! After introducing herself, she shouted, "Let's all raise our voices together! and they continued with "FORTiTUDE" and "Barayuri xxx", followed by a nonstop live performance. The choreography video of the live performance was also available on the website, and the audience performed the standard visual-kei band live dance moves such as "hand fan" and "blooming," creating a live spectacle that was distinctly different from that of the so-called "idol voice actors.

In the midst of all this, Kitamura-san, who had finished singing "Barayuri xxx", revealed his feelings when he wrote the lyrics, saying, "I was waiting for this, wasn't I? Please call my name," he added, to the lyrics of the song. The audience shouted, "Kitaeri is the best!

He also talked about "K'T'E'R x M'O'D'E," the main theme of his radio show "Eri Kitamura's radio Kitaeri x mode," for which he is the radio personality. After introducing that guitarist YOSHIHIRO composed the music, he said, "I'm going to do it now! Let's go! He then performed "K'T'E'R x M'O'D'E" with great enthusiasm. The audience heard the intro to "Revolution [re:i]" without a moment's pause and turned purple psyllium lights on. The audience shouted "Trust [re:i]! The audience responded with a powerful call and response, and the venue became a whirlpool of excitement.


The MC interrupted with, "I tried to be rough with 'Revolution [re:i]'," and it seemed like it was time for a short break, but then Mr. Kitamura said, "Symphonic songs following the flow of 'Revolution [re:i]' will continue, so please get intoxicated with my music. Mr. Kitamura. The Japanese-flavored "Koi Hanabi" followed. The orange psylliums were like a summer night sky tinted with fireworks, and somewhat melancholy. However, the live performance continued with "Miracle Premonition," as if to push the audience even further. As Ms. Kitamura swayed her hands from side to side, the venue's fresh blue psylliums swung from side to side, and they swung loudly as she called out "Jump! The psylliums swung from side to side, and the audience swayed in time to her call of "Jump!

Kitamura seemed to be moved by the blue ocean-like scene created by the psylliums, but as she set the microphone on the stand, she said, "I think I'll be even more moved by the next song. I wanted to be here as soon as possible," he said, looking back on the period when he was unable to perform live, "and I was longing for this moment when I could make noise with the Kitaerists. He also said, "It would have been a shame if I hadn't been able to catch up with them. and to express his gratitude to the fans who are following him, he performed "+×+×+ 荊棘 +×+×+". The audience in blue lights listened attentively to this ballad, the only one of the night.

Mr. Kitamura bowed lightly and left the stage. As if to replace the band members, the curtain decorated with the live logo disappeared and a screen appeared in the center of the stage. The screen showed the PV of the new song "arcadia † paroniria," which will be released on September 27. The full version of the song, which features Kitaeri's quintessential symphonic metal sound, was shown for the first time in the video, sung in a chapel, dressed in a costume reminiscent of a sister. The Kitaerists were glued to the screen, but when the band members appeared on stage and the same phrase as the intro to the song they had just heard echoed, Ms. Kitamura appeared on stage again and the stage was illuminated in yellow, creating an excitement that was hard to believe it was their first time seeing the song.

The audience clapped their hands to the rhythm of "TiCK TACK," Kitamura's first shuffle song.

I was so nervous," she said frankly after the first performance of the new song from the PV, which had just been released for the first time. She then delivered the happy news, "I'm going to hold a one-man live concert with this song! He also delivered the happy news, "I'm going to have a one-man live concert with this song! He also announced that the live would be held on October 28 (Sat), 2017 at Mozart Hall, Katsushika Symphony Hills, Tokyo, and that the title of the live would be "Nightmare † Alive 2017". After getting the audience excited with "I have a hope to live! After making the audience laugh, Kitamura began discussing with the audience about the song that would be the password. While the audience was saying, "Kitaeri is the best," he asked the audience to "I love her! The song was performed again, this time to the tune of "Barayuri xxxx". The audience made hearts with their fingers and gave all their love to Ms. Kitamura.

Last spurt after the release of the DVD and announcement of the one-man live concert


A DVD of this live performance and the details of the live concert that had just been announced were shown on the screen, and the word "Thank you" floated on the screen. Not satisfied yet, the Kitaerists called out "Kittaeri! The call brought Ms. Kitamura back on stage, dressed a little rough in a live T-shirt, black choker, beret, and denim skirt. After taking a commemorative photo, she asked the audience, "Will you follow me because this is a royal rock tune that you will feel comfortable listening to for the first time? and performed "EDEN", a coupling song of "arcadia † paroniria". The last song was "DiVE to GiG -K- AiM" again.


She then said, "I was able to be a heroine for one day today. Thank you!" I will continue to run through the day to be your royal heroine voice-over artist, so if you feel like it, please feel free to cheer me up! I will continue to run through to be your royal heroine voice-over artist, so if you feel like it, please feel free to chiyahoy me!
