While the audience laughed at such song introduction, the first song performed was "Sayonara Moratorium.

The first song was "Sayonara Moratorium," which was performed by a voice actor who sang with a number of different characters, and the vocalist's voice changed color. There are parts where the audience can join in the chorus and call and response. the audience sang in unison.

The second song was the dance number "I Want You To Know Baby. The second song was a dance number, "I Want You To Know Baby," about an android who falls in love with a human, which she sang lightly with a choreography she devised herself.

The third and fourth songs were the double lead songs from the album, written by Higashiyama himself.
The first song was "Hajimari no Sora", which was written as an answer song to "Rainbow", the lead song of the first album for which she wrote the lyrics for the first time.
She introduced the song by saying, "I wrote this song with the hope that it will keep the positive energy in the hearts of everyone who listens to it.

The last song of the mini live was, of course, "Gunsei Infinity," the title track of the album.
The last song of the mini live was, of course, "Gunsei Infinity," the title song of the album.　I wrote this title song to make everyone go 'woo-woo-woo' together! Will you 'woo-woo-woo' with me?
to which the audience responded with loud cheers.

For those who were listening to the song for the first time, the audience practiced the chorus before the performance of "Gunsei Infinity," which was the most exciting song of the day. Best! You beat the roller coaster sound! Thank you!
After finishing the song, Higashiyama expressed his gratitude to the fans who responded to his powerful singing voice.

The four-song mini live performance came to an end.
I can't sing more! Higashiyama enthusiastically expressed his aspirations for the upcoming release events in Hyogo and Nagoya, as well as his first tour "LIVE Infinity" to be held in the summer.
