Raychell, Natsume, Reiho Kurachi, and Sae Otsuka, who also plays Tae Hanazono in Poppipa, were the backing band on guitar. This was the first live performance in which all five bands in "GARUPA" sang their songs.

Afterglow (Ayane Sakura)

Afterglow was the first band to perform.

Ms. Sakura recreated the costume of Ran Mitake almost perfectly, wearing a loose one-shoulder shirt studded with studs, short denim and a choker!　Over that, she added a long black transparent skirt to create a slightly more mature image.

Most impressive of all was the red mesh in her hair, which showed her strong commitment to visually recreating Ran.

I'm just going to sing as usual. Please listen to me." Ms. Sakura performed "That Is How I Roll! She put everything she had into her low-pitched singing voice, which was exactly like Ran Mitake herself. The collaboration with Ms. Otsuka, who was playing the guitar while enjoying the song, was a joy to behold.

Ms. Sakura briefly said, "Thank you very much," and left the venue leaving a vivid impression. In the gull party area, flower stands were displayed for each band, and the one for Afterglow's Ran Mitake had a Japanese-style flower stand with the words, "From my father. It was a touching touch that reminded me of the relationship between Ran and her father, a flower arranger in the film.

Hello, happy world! (Ms. Mirai Ito)

Next up was Ms. Mirai Ito, who played the role of Kokoro Tsurumaki. Her costume was reminiscent of the red marching band in the first main visual of Halo Happi. After introducing herself, she said as Kokoro, "Please enjoy the show until the end!　Make the world smile!　Happy!　Lucky!　Smile? The entire audience responded in unison with a chorus of "Yay! The entire audience responded with a chorus of "Yay! On stage, they performed "Smile Orchestra! Smile Orchestra!　Kokoro's steady vocals were very impressive as she maintained her voice. Everyone's smiles are so bright! Ito-san seemed to be enjoying the stage more than anyone else, spinning around during the interlude and bursting into laughter. The stage was filled with fun and smiles, as if the concept of Halohappi to make the world smile had become a reality.

Pastel*Palettes (Ami Maeshima)

Ami Maejima, who plays the role of Aya Maruyama, appeared on stage in a fluffy idol costume with pink as its base color. Ms. Maejima looked just like an idol in the costume of the initial main visual of Pastel*Palettes!　Her sparkling eyes and ever-present full-blown smile were very impressive.

It's shuwashuwa time with everyone!　I want to shake this venue with our shuwashuwa with you all! I want to shake this venue with our shuwashuwa!

She excited the audience with her sweet singing voice and authentic dance moves, and got the audience to call for more.

Ms. Maejima was thrilled to hear a live band sing for the first time, and praised Mr. Otsuka, the guitarist, saying, "Saeti-san is so cool! The second song, "Paspa Revolutions☆," was followed by "Se-no! The second song, "PASPA REVOLUTION ZU☆," brought out loud chants of "Aimaimi! Maejima's voice was followed by a big call of "Aimaimi! The beginning of the chorus was sung with strong feelings, and soon after, she returned to her smiling face as if she were a flower opening again.

The audience cheered loudly when she asked the audience, "Have you fallen in love with Passepare? to which the audience responded with loud cheers.

The stage went dark and the band changed for a moment, and it was a joy to see Mr. Otsuka, who was playing guitar in the backing band, step out to the center of the dark stage, put his feet on the foot speakers, and (secretly) threw kisses to the audience.

Roselia

After the stage was transformed and the band set up, Roselia appeared on stage! They were dressed in "Hot Color Starmine" costumes, which featured the impressive cloak of .......

First, they performed "BLACK SHOUT" with Mr. Aiba's declaration, "Let's get excited at Tokyo Big Sight!" The five members' performance, vocals and chorus combined to create a Roselia world.

During the MC session, Roselia's charm was to show the close relationship among the five members, and they talked about what they wanted to do in 2018 (in their roles): "I want to move forward with shoulder synths," "I want to move the drums (on stage)," "The front team will fly! The topics were such as "I want to fly high on stage.

The band sang "Hot Color Starmine," of course, as they wanted to fly high on stage. Aiba's cry of "To the top, bloom madly! was so cool that it gave me chills.

The last number was unanimously decided to be "ONENESS" after some discussion about what to sing and a game of Roselia rock-paper-scissors!　The singing by the instrumentalists at the beginning of the song was very emotional. The vocal parts of the other members except for Yukina were very impressive, and it was great to see how they raised the heat while competing with Aiba's strong vocals.

Poppin'Party

The costumes were based on the new costumes that had just been released to the public. The vivid colors popped and the skirts decorated with cute bonbons were impressive.

The live started with the first performance of "Happy Happy Party!　The members looked happy to perform the song for the first time, saying "We finally made it! The second song was "Future" from the anime "Future".

The second song was "B.O.F.", the ED of the anime "Future Card Buddy Fight Butts"!　This song was mainly performed by Kasumi and Tae, and Aimi looked happy saying "I was so thrilled to sing with Otei! Aimi also looked happy. What is noteworthy about this song is the scene in which Ms. Nishimoto shows off her aggressive bass playing and head-banging. In fact, the drummer Mr. Ohashi was also headbanging synchronously here, and I felt it was quite rare to see the front and rear rhythm section members moving in unison.

The third song was a live-feeling composition, with Otsuka's intense guitar solo in the spotlight enlivening the audience, and Aimi's energetic shout of "Teardrops" leading directly into the same song. The way they left the lingering echoes of the following song "I won't let you go..." was outstanding.

During the MC, the audience talked about how Aimi's guitar was (physically) glowing and what part of each instrument should be glowing.　What part of each instrument should be shined? Looking back on the live performance, Ms. Nishimoto said, "I enjoyed the whole two days!" and Mr. Ito said, "This is the first event of 2018, and I will do my best to make this year another year of Bandolier! they said.

Aimi concluded the event by saying, "The last song is the first song that all five members of Poppin'Party s sang together in the TV anime. Today, we are going to sing the song with the meaning that the five bands in "GARUPA" are all here and everyone is together," she said, and went on to the last number, "STAR BEAT!

The stage was filled with new meanings to the songs that had been sung over and over again. In her last speech, Aimi said, "If possible, I dream of an event where all 25 cast members, Marina-san, and Glitter*Green are gathered! she said.

At this live, it was announced that Poppin'Party's 9th single "CiRCLING" and Roselia's 5th single "Opera of the wasteland" would be released on the same day, March 21, 2018. In addition, the backing band members Raychell, Natsume, and Reiho Kurachi, who supported the live performance of "Bandri! It was also announced that the backing band members Raychell, Natsume, and Reiho Kurachi, who supported the live performance, will form a third band, "THE THIRD (temporary)" and hold their first live performance at Shimokitazawa Garden on March 25, 2018. Sae Otsuka will join the band as a guest performer. With so many plans for the future, "Bandoli-Girls Band Party" is sure to be a hit in the future! Girls Band Party" has a lot of plans for the future.
