MC REPORT

First concert

Motto Corner (YokoyamaSakurai)
Sakurai's story of wanting to go into architecture led her to talk about her school studies.
Yokoyama : When I was in high school...
Audience: Oh
Yokoyama : Everyone, calm down a bit!


Members' impressions

Yumigeta : Inoue and I couldn't be there for the opening concert of the previous tour, which was our first tour as a member... So I'm happy to be standing here today, for the opening concert.

Inoue : I'm also happy to be here for the opening day. Be here makes me feeling the real excitement of an opening concert.

Sakurai : We had a lot of fun during the preparation period, with the members trying to predict the setlist.

Yamazaki : I'm nervous because of the new song assignments I've been given and the fact that I'll be in the lead, but I hope to grow through this tour.

Okamura : I'm still one of the youngest member of the Hello! Project, but I have now kouhai, and it feels like I'm gradually moving up, so... I want to show motto (*more) to everyone how cool I am!

Kitagawa : I can't stop smiling since the first MC thanks to all of you who wished me a happy birthday. I'm going to do my best!

Yokoyama : There are quite a few songs we haven't performed in a while, so I hope we can show a different side of us compared to the last tour.

Haga : I'm singing "Haru Beautiful Everyday" with Kitagawa, and I realized how much she grew up from 4 years ago, when our eyes mets during today's performance.

Makino : Spring tour has started! Please come and join us~!

Nonaka : This past Saturday and Sunday were very warm, which made me happy that the spring tour has started and that spring is on its way.

Oda : This is my first time in front of you all since I turned 25! Also, this is my first tour as a sub-leader, so I will do my best!

Ishida : I'm so happy to see you all. I didn't realise I could get so much support just for dancing. I thought. Thank you for the happy space.

Ikuta : I was surprised to hear how many cheers I could get when I performed what I had prepared, I felt nostalgic when I got cheers for my acrobatics, and I could feel the change in the younger members when they were given the senpai singing lines assignments. It made me thought that Morning Musume。is fun!

ENCORE

Ikuta : Even though my kohai said they were nervous about singing, they sang today with confidence. I thought it was reliable, I was reminded once again that a concert can be made with everyone's cheers.


Second concert

Members' impressions

Yumigeta : I'm going to be a high school student from spring, so I want to try mature songs in the unit songs and show a slightly mature look. I also said I wanted to wear these black gloves, so I did!

Inoue : I'm singing a mature song as a unit song, so I'm going to do my best to show a mature look without being scary.

Sakurai : Today is Kitagawa-san's birthday, so as a senpai whom I admire, I'd like to talk a lot without getting pulled away... (smashes teeth into microphone) Ouch! 

Yamazaki As it's Rio-chan's birthday, I'd like to give her a birthday present. (Towards Kitagawa) Panda-san... power! (Kitagawa collapses.) Now that you are older, you can understand my Panda-san power!

Okamura There was a lot of cheering during the unit song, and at night concert, I put more energy into my high twintails than I did during the day concert.

Kitagawa : I was really happy to hear a "Rio-chan" call before the show started. I'm from Tokyo and I've never been to a birthday event where I could speak out, so this was the first time I've heard "Rio-chan call"! I was really happy!

Yokoyama : I knew from the rehearsals that the cheering would be amazing at the concert, but everyone was even more amazing than I thought they would be.

Haga This is my first stage since I turned 22, and I have been in Hello! Project since I was 11, so I have spent half of my life here. Today, I think I was able to show you a more matured Akanechin.

Makino : Will you come back tomorrow? One, two...! Love it! Huh? It was too quiet. One more time! Ready! Love it!

Nonaka : You all enjoyed to support your oshi today. Speaking of that... (YouTube video announcement) I hope you will watch my video of members presentation as you leave after this!

Oda : "Gyuusaretai Dake na no ni" was the first song to be included in the set after the fanchants ban out loud was lifted. It's you who make the calls and nurture them, so I'm looking forward to seeing how this song will grow in the future.

Ishida : When I was performing "One · Two · Three", I thought I could really go to space as the lyrics say. I don't know if it's because I'm confident or because of your fanchants. Yeah, I think your cheering made me feel that way.

Ikuta : Seeing the younger members working so hard, made me also had to do deeper than usual, but as Oda said about the growth of the call, the members and the fans must also grow up, so please come to the concert again.


ENCORE

Ikuta : I want everyone to have as their motto to follow their hearts freely, to believe in the path they're taking, and to make the fans who come along love Morning Musume。even more!
Ishida : The title of this tour not only means "more" but also "motto", which means that we are not satisfied with the status quo and that we are aiming higher.
