Popular voice actress Aya Uchida, a.k.a. "Uchi," who has returned from throat surgery and released her 3rd album "ICECREAM GIRL," held a solo live performance at Makuhari Messe Event Hall on October 14 (Sat.) and 15 (Sun.), 2017. The colorful songs were performed one after another. Here is a report from the solo live on October 14, where everyone was intoxicated by Uchi's smiling face as he sang one song after another.

A one-man live show that entertained with colorful songs and a variety of performances.

Her third album "ICECREAM GIRL," released on September 13, 2017, was a masterpiece of what she has been building up to date. This solo live concert was held with this album.

The venue, the Makuhari Messe Event Hall, was set up with a stage that depicted an American cityscape, just like the CD jacket design. In addition, there was a large back stage far behind the main stage, and the two stages were connected by a catwalk-like path.

As we were waiting on the stage, wondering what kind of live performance was about to begin, a large ice cream balloon suddenly appeared on the stage. The balloon burst open and Mr. Uchida appeared from inside!　The live started with "What you want!

She greeted the audience between songs with a smile, "Have a good time today! and greeted the audience with a smile between songs! Pegasus-go" and traversed the arena!　The band ad-libbed some lines and skipped happily through the song to the very back of the arena. They sang "Sweet Rain" on the stage where the back seats were in the front, and then went back to the main stage for the outro.

The band was not visible up to this point, but I could certainly hear them playing. Where on earth are they playing ......? Then, during the following song "Holiday," a panel depicting a cityscape was removed, and to my surprise, the band members appeared. Uchi dared to entertain us with the same trick as the Nippon Budokan live performance.

After singing this rock'n'roll number, Utschi-chi-chi said in his first MC, "This time, the venue is bigger, so I'm trying my best to make the audience enjoy the performance. There are many different types of songs on the album, so please look forward to seeing which songs will appear where. I am sure you will be surprised! I hope to make everyone melt with my voice and performance, and I hope we can have fun together. Let's have a sweet and colorful time together, just like ice cream!

The dancers immediately started to pop on stage with "Merry Go," using colorful balance balls to dance. This was Uchida's first time performing with dancers.

I was exploring what I could do after turning 30 and making a new album," she said. I felt lonely doing it by myself, but when I see so many cute girls like this, I get so excited!" he said, wishing that the audience could enjoy the colorful songs in various productions.

On the 14th, they sang "Which do you like better, kick or punch? The intro of the song was "Everybody Likes Kick. The intro of the song was "Do you like kick or punch?　Do you like punch?　There are a lot of both!　Wow, Hentai", the audience got even more excited. This sense of closeness with the fans, which never changes no matter the venue, can be said to be the charm of her live performances.

Uchi was also in tears ...... when she sang "that song" that she wanted to sing at the end!

The first half of the concert was filled with various events on the stage direction front, but in the middle of the show, the "rock Aya Uchida" burst into full swing. From "Apple Mint" to "I made a medley for this live," she said, pumping her fists and toweling off! and then they went into a block of fist-pumping and towel-spinning. The band set was pushed to the front of the stage and the floor was filled with excitement. The audience turned red for "Ruby eclipse," and the fans supported the performance. I chose this song because I knew it would be a hit at the concert! I chose this song because I thought it would be exciting at the live performance! The temperature of the venue was clearly rising as the audience called out loudly.

But that is not her only charm! She sang "Close to you" as if to say, "That's not the only thing I love about her! As the urban pops swayed my body, the band was once again stowed inside the stage. Ms. Uchida appeared in a monotone costume and began the passionate "Kaleidoscope Rondo. The scenery changed dramatically with each song. The blue world and serious voice of "Frozen" had me on the edge of my seat, but it was "Blue Flower" that took me even deeper into the world. Here, the stage rose and stopped in front of the screen above. The image played on the screen, and it seemed as if a flower had bloomed behind Ucchi. The song "Pink Magenta" penetrated the body with even lower sound. Here, I felt like I was getting more and more absorbed into the deep world of the song.

The deep world of the song was quickly turned into a bright yellow by "Yellow Sweet," the lead song from the band's third album. The next song was "Yellow Sweet," the lead song from her third album, which led into an EDM medley. Her style is to sing and perform without much MC. The tempo is very good, so the time flies by very quickly.

She sang and danced a lot," she said, "and I danced quite a bit for a new challenge. How was it?　You danced a lot, didn't you?　You can do it if you try, right?　It's fun to have different kinds of performances!　I have tried many things in my three years as a soloist, and I have had my share of doubts and doubts, but because everyone has always smiled back at me, I feel like I have been able to take on many challenges without fear. I would like to continue to give live performances that are like ice cream, always tasty. And since I love to get everyone excited, I hope you will still join me in a good sweat!　Let's go for the last spurt!"

The audience responded in the loudest voice of the day. The audience responded with the loudest voice of the day. The band performed "Say Goodbye, Say Hello," "Blooming! The band was able to get up close and personal with many fans and get them excited. Moreover, during "Sweet Dreamer," a trolley also appeared. During the song, the audience got very close to her and she shouted "Wow, you are so close! She was so like her, shouting between songs, "Wow!

I was so happy that we could exchange smiles up close. I hope I can convey my feelings of gratitude to everyone with this song." She sang "Ordinary," a song that she had been eagerly waiting to sing at the end of the live since the release of her album. The band left the stage after finishing the song, occasionally choking back tears.

Uchi appeared on stage again for a big encore. The trolley is my favorite ride in the world!　We were so close in the back row! He talked about his memories of the main event, and then started talking with the band members in a relaxed atmosphere. The audience could feel the friendly atmosphere.

The last song was "Everlasting Parade," a song about the scenery of the concert. No matter what kind of venue, Uchi tries his best to think of exciting and thrilling things that would make everyone smile. It was a live performance that was packed with too much of that. And just like the lyrics of the song, it was a "sparkling stage. The first day of the arena ended with a smile and a "See you tomorrow! with a smile.
