Yu Serizawa, who is just so cute, charms her fans at her 23rd birthday live! Yu Serizawa 23rd Birthday Live - #Love Letter-" Live Report

On Sunday, December 3, 2017, Yu Serizawa held her second birthday live "Yu Serizawa 23rd Birthday Live~#Love Letter~" (two daytime and two nighttime performances) at Zepp Divercity in Daiba, Tokyo, following last year.

She is a voice actress and a member of the idol group "i☆Ris," but this was only her second live performance as a solo artist. However, just as she had put her own feelings into her 2nd mini-album "only you? only me! ). Let's take a look at her thoughts scattered throughout the evening performance.

The devilish Seriko welcomes the fans!

The live started with "PRINCESS POLICY," which began with an SE overture like twinkling stars. After the lighting effect of swirling lights, Ms. Serizawa appeared in the see-through devil costume with cat ears that she showed on the jacket of "only you? only me! On stage was an envelope sealed with a heart sticker. On the upper side of the stage was a smartphone more than twice the size of Ms. Serizawa's. On the lower side of the stage was a live performance of the song "me! On the lower part of the stage was a calendar with the live date "12/3" surrounded by hearts.

Only you...right? After grabbing the hearts of the audience with her "Only you..., right?" look, she sang "Voice for YOU! Serizawa herself bounced around the stage, standing on one leg and stretching her arms up and to the right, a characteristic move performed in the upper and lower corners of the stage. Fans received cute eye beams from the stage.

The next song was "How? Party☆" from their 2nd album! Party☆" from their 2nd album. Party☆" from their second album. The song was a little bit sissy and required a high level of singing ability, but the high level of singing ability kept the audience excited, and they moved on to the first MC. Her devilish MC was as brilliant as ever!　Where is everyone? I love Yu-chan! and "I love Yu-chan! When she showed off her costume, she said, "Isn't she cute?" and turned around twice. When she started to explain the calendar at the bottom of the stage, she pointed to 12/3 and said, "Minna ni aerunrun ♪ Because it's cute. It's so cute! It's so cute!

Yu Serizawa is still going strong. He told an episode that took place on December 3, the day of his birthday. First, she carefully introduced the recipe for making "the ultimate cocoa" on stage. Then, she prepared a small cake by herself, lit a candle on it, and blew it out while singing "Happy Birthday to You" by herself.

Happy Birthday Yu-chan x2, Happy Birthday Dear Yu-chan ....... Happy Birthday, Atashi (imitating blowing out the candles) ....... And!　I was doing it in my room all by myself!"

Don't worry everyone, I don't update my Twitter feed, so there's no 'I'm definitely with someone' (or so you might have thought), kind of fun phenomenon going on at all!"

He confessed.

Serizawa asked the audience, "Do you guys like the burikko Seriko?" the audience gave their wholehearted affirmation. With this encouragement, she started to change her costume, but did not stop talking even though she was hiding behind the calendar. About the color of the psyllium, she said, "I think red psylliums are nice. Because the lovely song goes on and on. But the costumes are light blue. I'll go with light blue," he said, toying with the fans. The free-spirited Ms. Serizawa was really cute.

Then, when she was ready, Serizawa-san launched into the "Kawaii! Serizawa-san was cute as she stepped from the lower part of the stage to the upper part during the interlude of "Kiss!-" and threw kisses that reached the back of the floor. Serizawa was also cute as she performed "Dramatic," pulling her phone out of her pocket to match the lyrics and changing her facial expressions from wide-eyed to smiling and back again. In the interlude of "WAGA-MA-MA-", Ms. Serizawa was really cute as she crouched down and waved her hands to the fans, but it was really cute when she asked for "Ai" from the fans in the last chorus "I want to meet you" and "I want to meet you". If you haven't experienced this part of the show, you should definitely come to the next show to experience it.

During the second MC, Serizawa said, "As expected, I was too kawaii. Serizawa stumbled and crouched down, saying, "This is funny," while a keyboard and an acoustic guitar were placed beside her.

Please listen to the song while everyone relaxes."

EFFY, who has arranged some of the songs himself, was brought in as keyboardist to play the keyboards. At last year's birthday live, she sang "Yuki no Hana" by Mika Nakashima on keyboard, but this time she chose "U&I" from "K-ON! This time she chose "U&I" from "K-ON! She used to play the guitar as a member of a light music club, so she looked good as she plucked the strings to confirm the song. Serizawa, without any self-deprecation, said firmly, "Please have a wonderful time. From the count of "one, two, one-two-three-four," Serizawa's guitar playing, which was mainly strokes, was solid, and her singing voice and facial expression showed that she had returned to her true Yuu Serizawa self.

The second half of the live featured a series of memorable anime songs!

Later, a large smartphone showed a video of Yuu struggling to draw a love letter. The mood changed when she finally tore up the love letter she was about to draw after a moment of joy and sorrow. The screen of the phone cracked, the love letter on the set opened, and Serizawa-san appeared in a white shirt, black suspenders and a police cap in a vintage style. They performed "No Regulation," a guitar rock song, and "TRIal HEART - violation ticket for love" with a very cool intro with a bass line that was stirred up by the piano. The latter song was sung by Mirei Minami, played by Serizawa in "Pripara," and she sang as an idol, a lawyer, and a prosecutor, three contradictory characters. The song was interspersed with numerous lines, such as, "OH!　Oh!　Oh! The falsetto at the end of the chorus is impressive, but the way the singer decides to sing the last chorus hard in his own voice is heartbreaking.

Incidentally, during the MC, he commented on the stage set that had been put in so much effort.

You didn't think (the love letter set) would open, did you?　And then there was the smart phone. When the idea came up that modern people's love letters should be on their phones, I thought, 'Oh, Genius.

The audience laughed out loud when he said that. The word "Genius" has been used on occasion since then and seems to have become a favorite power word.

Serizawa continued to use the word as her third costume, "I'm going to change now! She was also wearing her third outfit, which was a little more "girly" than the first. Of course, the MC also had time to change behind the calendar. While changing her clothes, she asked for pink psylliums because she was going the cute route (however, she instructed purple psylliums because there were no pink i☆Ris psylliums) before making her comeback to the stage. She wore a light blue one-piece dress, her image color. The pleated skirt was decorated with many small flowers.

She then sang, "Let's go to the next song... Love's Russian Roulette!"

This is a character song sung with Saori Hayami in "Kaket Kegurui" and Serizawa was in charge of the choreography for the ED movie. This time, Ms. Serizawa showed off the choreography to the fullest as she performed the song by herself. She was cute with her sultry singing voice. From there, they performed "Wonderland no Kakusugan" from "Idols Incidents. And then, "Kakugan Sugar from Wonderland" from "Idol Jihen",

I'm sure you've noticed that lately I've been thinking, 'Why don't I just sing the character songs that I don't sing by myself?

He then made a declaration of sorts, hinting that the next character song would be sung in collaboration with someone else.

I want to sing here, and I want to dance properly. I want to sing here, and I want to dance properly. Can you say "cheripiki"?

And so, here came "cherry-picking days" from "Pretty Rhythm Rainbow Live". Even though it was a character song duet, it was too good to be buried. The large smartphone screen showed An Fukuhara & Wakana Morizono (CV: Yu Serizawa & Marei Uchida) singing and dancing. But the fans in the audience were reminded of Serizawa dancing with a sharpness that exceeded that of the audience, and their voices withered as they shouted "Cheripiki!" and shouted "Cheri Piki! And then, without pausing, "Let's KIRA-KIRA?" The song was full of call and response. The song was full of call and response, but the audience was still in a state of excitement as they responded to Serizawa's "se-no ko" in the A melody with "I love you, I love you, I love you! before the chorus, followed by Serizawa's "spin it, spin it," which was followed by towel spinning, and "Hi, hi!　Hi!　Hi!" during the interlude. during the interlude, the audience really felt as if they were being rolled around in the palm of their hands.

The main part of the live was "Katamari Expansion" from their 1st mini album. After the song was over,

When we released "YOU&YOU" in April, I felt like I wasn't good enough, I wasn't good enough at all, and I was so happy that everyone was supporting me, but I was so frustrated. I was really happy to think that everyone felt the same way!

I was really happy to think that everyone felt the same way.

Seriko's eyes were filled with tears. ......Thanks and emotional encore!

Of course, the show did not end there. The encore started with "Tonari mo Tsuki ga Kirei" (The moon is beautiful tonight). The curtain at the back of the stage fell, a crescent moon appeared in the air, and Celico walked from the lower part of the stage wearing a white one-piece dress with a waistband. During the interlude, only one light above the lower stage illuminated Celico, who stared back at the audience. The silhouette reflected in the love letter also conveys feelings. However. As soon as she finished singing, Serizawa screamed out, "Wait, let me sing one more time.

Wait, let me sing it one more time!

She was so absorbed in the song that she forgot to say the line "The moon is beautiful" in the middle of the song. The audience immediately responded, "Okay! I am sure I would have gotten this reaction at any venue. But the amazing thing about Mr. Serizawa is "It's okay, right?" She would then quickly retreat to the back of the stage and start the encore as if nothing had happened. His strong will is attractive, and it is really comfortable to be swept away by his little selfishness. The fans were also enthusiastic and made enthusiastic "Yuu-chan! call. When the intro to the song started, the audience cheered in spite of the ballad, and Serizawa sang the full chorus again!

After having accomplished her wish, a birthday cake arrived for her. A picture was taken with the cake, which depicted the cat ear jackets of her mini-album, and the audience full of fans.

She said, "I've been able to spend time at my parents' house so far, and I felt kind of lonely last year, but this year is definitely, definitely, definitely the most fun birthday I've had in 23 years! Thank you!"

The last song of the encore was "Parallel Stars" that "I can wave my hands with everyone. Yu Serizawa's songs, from original songs to character songs, all have the potential to become anthems, but as he said, "I hope we can sing this song for a long time to come," this song was especially suitable to be the last song of the encore. The floor waved their hands with all their might.

Serizawa left the stage saying, "See you again," but the fans couldn't stand it and called for "one more time. Serizawa was called for a second encore. Then, Mr. Serizawa gave a special gift.

I thought that the only things left for Seriko to give to the audience were her singing, dancing, and herself.

So, let's all take out our cell phones!" And so it was time for the audience to take video. The song was "PRINCESS POLICY. Although it had been done in the afternoon session, it was unprecedented for a live performance to end without any calls, claps, or shaking of hands. The idols must have wanted to end the show on a high note.

The other side of the coin is that it's not that much.

I'm going to sing with all my heart and soul," said Serizawa, "I'm going to put Seriko herself into everyone's cell phones.

Serizawa's words, "I'm going to sing with all my soul," were true, and I was truly moved.

With thousands of eyes staring at her, Serizawa sang with all her might and then bowed deeply. Tears welled up in the two eyes on the stage as she received a round of applause.

I love you all so much! Yuu Serizawa has no intention of stopping, ending, or quitting just yet, so please run up with us. Please run up with me. Thank you so much for today. That's all, I love you all so much, Yuu Serizawa.

She was a Natural Born Idol, an idol star from birth, who left the stage. The moment the show was over, I found myself wanting to be at the mercy of Yuu Serizawa, wondering when the next show would be.
