The first and last 3-unit joint event! Report on "i☆Ris&Wake Up, Girls!&Run Girls, Run! Valentine Live 2019" LUNCH SESSION

On February 2, 2019, "i☆Ris&Wake Up, Girls!&Run Girls, Run! Valentine Live 2019" was held.

The annual Valentine's Day event (also known as "Waguris") by i☆Ris & Wake Up, Girls! This year's event was even more exciting than usual, as it was a joint "Wagurisuran" of the three units, with the participation of their junior unit Run Girls, Run! (hereinafter referred to as "WUG") will disband in March 2019, making this the first and last joint event of the three units. For this reason, a large number of fans came to the venue, Morino Hall 21 in Chiba Prefecture.

Here is a report from the afternoon session.

Individuality in full bloom! Mini-game competition full of highlights!

The audience cheered loudly when the three groups appeared on stage, i☆Ris in colorful costumes, WUG in green, their image color, and Ranga in gorgeous pink, each showing their individuality.

Ken Washizaki, the host of the event, then appeared on stage, and the event started with the "mini game competition among teams," a customary event at "WUGRISE.

Yoshinoh Aoyama of WUG said, "This is the last Waguris! I definitely want to win! I want to win for sure! The three members of Ranga could not hide their nervousness as it was their first Valentine's Day Live event.

The teams were divided as follows.

Team Hayamaru: Koko Hayashi, Saki Yamakita, Kaya Okuno, Azuki Shibuya, Mimi Tanaka

Team Mocchi ... Yuka Morishima, Himika Akaneya, Nanami Yamashita, Miyu Kubota, Mimu Takagi

Team A-chan: Nanami Atsugi, Yuki Wakai, Masaru Yoshioka, Yu Serizawa, Yoshinori Aoyama, Airi Nagano

The three teams, each led by a Rangga member and divided according to the color of the unit they are in charge of, were challenged to play various games for the winning prize.

However, that was "Wagurisuran. As usual, a slapstick and amusing development unfolded.

In the "6-character quiz," in which the team members were asked to answer the question "What is the usual order of the members of i☆Ris?

In the "Bomb Yamanote Line Game," the teams answered the questions in order, and the team that answered the question when the bomb exploded lost the game! In the "Bomb Yamanote Line Game," Mr. Serizawa struck an appealing pose for no reason in time with the explosion, and the stage was filled with excitement with his talk and performance that made him look like a comedian.

The daytime session was a great success, with i☆Ris having the upper hand. But it was Yoshioka who hit the biggest home run of the day.

In "Get Everyone's Heart," an impromptu story performance, he performed "Overtime Work" and "Confession Etude! In the "Confession Etude," Mr. Yoshioka and Ms. Atsugi were asked to act out a confession scene in the setting of "a boss and a subordinate working overtime. Mr. Yamakita told them, "Mr. Atsugi should be the junior shorty, and Mr. Yoshioka should be the mature, sexy boss! The two performed beyond expectations! In particular, Ms. Yoshioka, who took Mr. Atsugi's hand and played the role of an overly sexy adult woman, was greeted with cheers. Ms. Yoshioka's adorable charm and aggressive approach were definitely the MVP of the day. (The other teams also commented, "Oh my God! She's so erotic! and "Erotic!" from the other teams.)

) Incidentally, after the performance, Yoshioka-san collapsed on the stage in embarrassment, and Aoyama-san gently consoled her: ....... It was a great performance.

The mini-game competition ended with Team Achan as the winner, thanks in part to Ms. Yoshioka's great performance.

The live part was filled with love from i☆Ris to WUG ......!

The second half of the event was the long-awaited live part.

The first performer was i☆Ris, and everyone was surprised to see the 6 members who reappeared after the costume change.

The reason was that they were all wearing green costumes.

The six members stood on stage dressed in the green costumes of Yamakita, whose image color is green.

When introducing themselves, Ms. Wakai made a "W" with the palm of her hand, which is a signature pose of WUG, as she called out "konnichiwa kai~.

Following the standard song "GENSHOKU WONDERLAND," the next song was "Make it! The song was followed by the standard song "Gensyoku WONDERLAND," followed by the song "Make it!" The audience was reminded of the lyrics that support those who are going on to new paths, such as "Kira Kira Mirai de Ketteido," and "Even if you feel weak on your own, you can be strong if you have a bond with others.

Then, in their new song "Endless Notes," they showed a new side of themselves with their slightly more mature voices, expressions, and gestures.

The last song they performed was "Happy New World☆", a standard song to liven up the live. Here again, i☆Ris' love for WUG was on full display!

They sang "WUG ni Yume no Melody", "WUG ni Naru Hibikiyo yo", and "WUG ni Naru Hibikiyo yo", and "WUG ni Mouth Play again unconsciously when you notice...".

Even if the unit is disbanded, we will never forget the songs left behind by WUG! With such powerful messages in their songs, the six members left the stage gallantly.

The next group to appear on stage was Ranga.

As the three energetic girls appeared on stage, purple and blue lights shone brightly along with the pink sirens that lit up the ceiling, and Ranga's face lit up as fans cheered them on in the colors of the characters they portray in the anime "Kiratto Pri☆Chan.

After a short pause to enliven the audience with "Kiratto Start," Ms. Hayashi reminisced about watching "Wagurisu" a year ago with the thought, "We wish we could be like them," and expressed her joy at being on the same stage with the seniors whom she admired. As if to let those feelings fly, they sang a new song, "Break the Blue! to make the audience feel like they were flying. The venue was now dyed in blue. The three members sang and danced lightly like airplanes flying in the sky.

The last song, "Kakeru x Kakeru," was the first song they performed, and their refreshing voices and performance enlivened the middle part of the live.

WUG was the last band to perform the live part of the daytime session.

When the first song "Yukimoyo Koi no Moyo" started, the venue was dyed in white cyalume. The seven members of WUG performed as if they were really in a snowy landscape. The performance was breathtaking in terms of the quality of their singing and dancing.

Since the announcement of their dissolution, the seven members have been on a long-term tour. FINAL LIVE ~Memoide no Parade~" to be held on March 8. The girls' unwavering formation and heartfelt vocals fully conveyed the ongoing growth of the girls throughout their long journey, even from this one song.

The next song, "Love? And love? and I'm a tyrant! was also phenomenal. The excitement of the audience was phenomenal, especially when they sang "I love you! The audience was especially enthusiastic when they responded "I love you too! The enthusiasm of the audience was overwhelming! The enthusiasm during the dance part in the middle of the show was also remarkable.

During the MC, comments were made to the first i☆Ris member who appeared on stage.

Mr. Takagi said, "i☆Ris wore green costumes! Ranga-chan did her best, and we can't lose!" Aoyama-san also expressed his excitement, "I was so happy, I was crying behind the scenes. However, he still said, "We can't lose! I want you to get as excited as i☆Ris!" She is so like her in her rivalry with i☆Ris.

Her outstanding singing ability was demonstrated in the new song "Saturday's Flight". This is a mature song, something WUG has not had in the past. Aoyama's clear voice was impressive as it soared high into the sky.

At the end of the song, the seven members gazed up at each other, as if they were ready to take off into the future.

Then came "Shoujo Symphony," a popular song that has become a staple of WUG's live performances. The power of the song is one thing, but the highlight of the show was the solo part performed by the two-top duo of Ms. Yoshioka and Ms. Aoyama. Perhaps it was because I felt that they were one of the most spirited WUG performers I have ever seen on stage. I wonder how we will feel when we hear this performance at Saitama Super Arena. ...... I couldn't help but think so.

The last song was "Gokujo Smile" performed by all three units.

It was truly an anthem! The audience united in chorus, and it was a moving finale to the live performance.

At the end, Mr. Yoshioka shouted, "I love everyone here! she exclaimed. She does not usually say such things, but there was enough love in the "Wagrisuran" venue to make her say so. The first and last "Wagurisuran" must have been a memorable stage that will remain in their history.
