I want you to see various Seriko! Report on Yu Serizawa's solo live "Yu Serizawa 24th Birthday Live ~Serikollection~" in the afternoon, where she charmed us with her various fashions!

Yu Serizawa, who is borderless as a voice actress and idol, held a solo live "Yu Serizawa 24th Birthday Live ~Serikollection~" at Shinagawa Prince Stellar Ball on December 1, 2018, to celebrate her birthday, which turns 24 years old in 3 days, The event was held twice a day and twice a night.

Yu Serizawa's birthday live has become an annual event for her fans. Serizawa has always entertained her fans with a variety of elaborate performances, and this year's event was no exception.

Here is a report on the afternoon session.

The costumes changed with each song!

The stage for this year's event, with the word "SERIKOLLECTION" shining on it, was as fashionable as a fashion show stage. When the upper-range instrumental music started playing in such a girl-oriented venue, the tension rose, no matter how much I wanted to be there!

The first one to appear on stage with a flag was Yuu Serizawa, aka "Seriko," dressed in a costume reminiscent of a marching band conductor.

She was both cool and cute!

The audience's voltage soared at the sight of her.

The song "Voice for YOU!" was performed here, which has become one of the most popular songs of the show. The way she stomped her feet in time to the lyrics and her slightly frightened expression were just adorable! Just after I realized again that this song is one that brings out 120% of Serizawa's charm, she asked the audience, "How do you say 'loud voice'? Serizawa encouraged the audience to respond with a tremendous sense of unity.

The audience responded in unison with nonstop "How? Party☆" nonstop! Party☆" nonstop, Serizawa, holding up a flag, moved left and right on the stage as if leading the audience. As long as you go with Seriko, you have nothing to worry about!" The audience was filled with such a sense of security and comfort. In such an atmosphere, the audience started to wave to follow Serizawa's flag!

What a sense of unity! The live started off with a bang, showing that both Serizawa and her fans had been eagerly waiting for this day to come.

As the introduction of "God x Sun x Summer Party," a summer tune released this year, started, Serizawa-san left the stage for a moment. After a moment's pause, she reappeared, this time in a hot pants style, which gave the audience the impression that summer was in full swing. Too much service spirit, Seriko!

Serizawa-san, who had rushed through the first half of the live in a frenzy, took a break at this point to deliver her first MC message: "Is it cute? I want you to see various kinds of Seriko," "This will be a live performance where you can see Serizawa-san as you have never seen her before," and "This will be a live performance packed with what we want to do," said Serizawa-san confidently.

Incidentally, a penlight that glows pink was added to the live goods this time because it is the image color of Suzuko Mimori, whom Serizawa admires so much. In the song "WAGA-MA-MA-MAGIC," Serizawa's energetic performance was completely transformed into a teasing gesture like a girl in love, and she sang with a sense of closeness as if she was talking to someone right next to her. Serizawa's ability to express herself on stage made the audience's hearts pound.

The middle part of the live included the latest character songs.

From this point on, Ms. Serizawa performed a series of character songs that she has released so far. After performing "Lemonade Scandal" (a character song for Maxi Akizuki from the TV anime "Dogs and Scissors Can Be Used"), Serizawa reappeared in a cute dog-eared idol outfit. She sang the hard rock song "...Mimete mimete ♡♡" and the more extreme thrash metal song "O-boe-te-te", both of which are character songs of Noumi Anazawa from the TV anime "Magical Girl Site". The gap between the band's gory sound and the idol-like vocals was interesting. This mismatch is only possible with character songs.

The highlight of the performance was the cute yell of "Wow! a cute yell of "Wow! Serizawa's free and easy transition between "cute" and "cool" was a real treat.

Next, she changed into a girly one-piece dress and performed "Dramatic Radio. Fans were allowed to take pictures of Seriko with their cell phones, and they all snapped their shutters at once to capture her cute appearance!

Serizawa posed to the swinging music and waved to the audience, "Are you getting the picture? Serizawa waved her hands to the audience and sang softly.

The flag on which the logo had been drawn earlier changed to "SERIKO IS No. 1" before she knew it. A heart mark also appeared on the stage. The stage was filled with "love" from Ms. Serizawa to her fans.

A parasol, "an item that makes you more and more cute," also appeared on stage. I like Seriko's greed for "cute"!



She showed off her charm with a variety of performances!

The second half of the live started with "PRINCESS POLICY" with impressive cat-like choreography. After mesmerizing the audience with her cool dance moves and her ever-changing facial expressions, she cooled down the floor with "Please Weekend," a song with an 80's dance music taste.

Ms. Serizawa changed into an elegant white costume and sang a romantic ballad "Tonari mo Tsuki ga Kirei". The most impressive part of the performance was the synchronization of sound and visuals. When Ms. Serizawa held up her hand, light spread across the stage, and during the chorus, a star-filled sky centering on Ms. Serizawa spread out, creating a fantastic space that colored the moving song.

The next song was "HiDE the BLUE," a cover of the idol group BiSH. For this song, the ending theme of the TV anime "3D Girl Real Girl" in which Serizawa also appeared, she changed into a leather jacket! The guitarist showed off his rock style singing while strumming his guitar furiously.

At first she seemed a little nervous, but gradually she seemed to get into the groove, and during the interlude she played while shaking her body. When she finished singing, she had a big smile on her face.

I was given the opportunity to play the guitar again after last year," she said. Last year I was unreliable, but this year I wanted to show how reliable I am, so I played hard," said Serizawa, who challenged the audience to throw guitar picks at the audience, a performance he had longed to do. However, she was disappointed that she couldn't get the distance she wanted. He said, "Next time, I will practice more so that I can jump more." He might be a better guitarist at next year's birthday live!



The tearful "I love you" was followed by "I love you" and "I love you"!

The live concert is already in its last spurt.

Are you enjoying yourself in all directions? Serizawa changed into a bright red one-piece dress. Here she sang "Play Sound☆," a song by "Melty Star," the unit of Ana Akagi, played by Ms. Serizawa, and Sara Midorikawa, played by Yuki Wakai, from the TV anime "Kiratto Pri☆Chan" currently being broadcast. The song was sung by Ana Akagi, played by Tomoki Wakai, and Meltyx Star, played by Tatsuki Wakai, a unit of "Meltyx Star. The audience was delighted by this unexpected collaboration.

Then came another costume change. This time, they performed the character song "Pretty Puffet" for Mirei Minami from the TV anime "Pripara. The costumes were also idol-like, with yellow and blue colors reminiscent of Mirei. The song was sung in the same way as the original: "Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! P! P! P! Ri! and other pop songs that only Mirei's character songs can bring to the stage, but before the big chorus, Serizawa declared loudly, "I'll show you a new voice actress idol! Serizawa declared in a high voice, "I'll show you a new voice actress idol! I can't help but feel his love for Mirei, a character he has worked with for many years, and his strong desire to create his own style as a voice actress idol.

After "Katamari Expansion," which had the entire audience clapping their hands, the last song of the main event, "I love you even on the worst day. finally started.

I would like to sing this song with all my heart to everyone here," Serizawa said as she bowed her head deeply and began to sing. During the interlude, she looked around the floor and said "Thank you" repeatedly with a happy expression on her face. Her feelings exploded in the big chorus. The refrain of "I love you" was filled with her feelings for her fans, and although she choked up a few times, she wiped away her tears and continued to sing. Serizawa sang "Let me say it one more time, I love you" as if shouting at the end of the song, which was the most emotional moment of the day.

The birthday song she had written with her fans was performed for the first time!

For encore, she unexpectedly appeared on a trolley. He performed "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!" while going around in a circle between the audience seats.

Serizawa's love for her fans is always evident in her performances and words. The song was written by Serizawa based on birthday episodes solicited from fans, and she commented, "Everyone sings the lyrics in chorus, so I hope it will spread in about five years.

The cute lyrics, such as "Even if I become a cute grandmother, I hope I can still be happy" were impressive and showed the life-sized Serizawa.

After taking a commemorative photo with a surprise birthday cake, the last MC said, "It's been a year that I was able to do my best by thinking, 'I'm going to meet everyone. I've been running away from my life, but I haven't run away from this job because I want everyone to face me," said Serizawa, who expressed her thoughts in unadorned words.

The audience was so happy to be able to spend time with her that they swung their arms from side to side during the last number, "Parallel Stars".

Ms. Serizawa said during the MC, "I have played many characters this year, so I thought I would make it into a collection," and "I decided to change my costume for each song. He said he hoped the audience would enjoy the show by showing various versions of themselves and never get tired of it.

There was laughter and tears. The birthday live was like a treasure box of the charm of Yuu Serizawa packaged as it is.

What kind of year will she have as she turns 24? Hopefully, she will show even more growth at her next birthday live!

Seriko! Happy Birthday!
