A prelude to the 1st live tour! Luce Twinkle Wink☆☆ ruled the Fountain Square with their intense dance! 2018/1/9 Free Live Report

It has been two years since "Luce Twinkle Wink☆" made their major label debut. Now that they have begun to catch the attention of the public with their extremely intense and highly synchronized dancing, they finally released their long-awaited first album on January 10.

Luce Twinkle Wink☆" (hereafter referred to as "Luce"), with the catchphrase "Shining Moment toki meki! Their catchphrase is "Shining Moment Tokimeki wo Tokimeki ni!" and they are an idol unit consisting of five members: Yukino Usami, Saki Fukazawa, Megumi Nishikiori, Saori Itayama, and Kaho Higaki. - After making their major debut from NBCUniversal Entertainment with the theme song "Koi Iro Shikkou Circuit" for "Darkness True Princess", "Did you think your netoge no Yome is not a girl?" and "Urara Mazecho" and "Gamers! etc. On January 14 and 20, 2018, they will hold their first solo live tour.

This time, we would like to take a look back at the release event held at "Sunshine City Fountain Square" with the album, which contains 14 songs like twinkling flashes of light, on the so-called "frag day" before the release of their 1st album "LLTW☆".

The first song was "Koiiro Koukoukai" (Love Color Thought Circuit). The first song was "Koiiro Shisoukairo" (Love Color Thought Circuit). Instead of the usual costumes featuring the members' colors, the five members wore white and silver in common, giving the audience a sense of unity, which showed their passion for their first album. After singing "go to Romance (>>>>>)," the MC was a typical Fountain Plaza performance, and in addition to self-introductions by the five members, he also introduced the name of the group in the hope that the audience would remember their names before leaving the venue.

Please remember our name, Luce. It's a long name.

"The name is similar to 'Fouche'" (Higaki).

I've already said it! (Usami)

The middle part of the show consisted of "1st Love Story" and "Fight on!", the title songs of major singles, interspersed with "meteor bell", the c/w song of the previous "go to-". The five sang with smiles and bounces to the bright pop songs.

However, when they started singing a new song for the album, "Twinkle "5" stars! the impression changed drastically. The dynamic choreography with serious expressions and vogue-like movements captivated the assembled audience. It was impressive to see the smiles on the faces of the five members after the song. I could sense the release of tension and a sense of fulfillment they felt after performing their new song on stage for the first time.

After a short MC, the group moved on to their debut song "Setsuna Halation" from their latest album, a song that was probably the most emotional song for them to sing at the release event of their first album. The event closed with "Luce Luce Twinkle Wink☆," Luce's anthemic but previously unrecorded self-introduction song.

The setlist was simple and straightforward, as if it represented the history of Luce, but it also reaffirmed that "Fountain Square," a sacred place for idols, is a suitable place for Luce. On the following day, the day of the release, Luce performed at "animate hall SHINJUKU (animate Shinjuku B2F)" and performed the customary "sing a song and dance with the CD in your hands at the event on the day of release". The power of the fountain plaza, where the formation and highly synchronized dance moves were shown in a large space and Usami's taut voice penetrated all the way to the third floor, was burned into my mind.

The release event was a prelude to Luce's upcoming one-man live show with the album, but the five members showed their abilities in a spectacular performance, and I can't wait to see them on the big stage at OSAKA MUSEUM in Osaka on January 14 and CLUB CITTA' in Kawasaki on January 20. I can't wait to see them on the big stage at OSAKA MUSE in Osaka on January 14 and at Club Citta in Kawasaki on January 20.

The final event of their first one-man tour is scheduled for this coming January 20 (Sat) at CLUB CITTA' in Kanagawa Prefecture.
