"Work hard! Thank you! Smile! We are Nogizaka Kamigyuzaka! 46! Yeah——!!"
Amidst the chants, Nogizaka's first anniversary concert officially kicked off.
The opening song was "Surrounded by Curtains". When the venue darkened, the members came on stage in advance and stood where they were supposed to stand, and took their poses.
After the melody of Overture ended, along with the sound of a salute, the curtain covering the stage suddenly fell down, revealing the girls on the stage. Colorful paper fell down one after another, and the beautiful girls danced to the music... The entire venue was filled with excitement.
The atmosphere was instantly brought to its climax.
To Oda's surprise, the seats in the audience were almost filled. Almost everyone stood up and shouted with all their strength. The light sticks waving in rhythm were like waves towards Oda.
Called, but what Oda felt was not huge power, but full of enthusiasm - at this moment, they had put their whole heart and soul on them.
In an instant, Oda could understand what Akimoto had said to her before. Indeed, Oda no longer had the intention to look forward or backward. She just wanted to do her best to show all of herself to the people who like her.
This one-year anniversary concert will reveal all the songs, that is, all the songs from the four singles will be performed starting from the debut single released a year ago, and each song has different dance moves and positions. This is also
The reason why the members have been practicing for so long. Now, it’s finally time to test the results.
"Maybe I Want to See You", "The Courage of the Left Breast", "Riding the White Clouds", the selected members and the Under members took the stage alternately in the order of the songs, which gave the members a brief moment to breathe, but from the faces of these girls
There was no sign of fatigue, but a smile full of excitement. Even Oda, who usually has a strong ability to control his emotions, was brought into this atmosphere.
After each song ends, a short recording will be played, with narration by different members, and the members can also change their costumes at this time.
Putting on the black and white leather jacket and pants that he hadn't worn for a long time, Oda looked in the mirror, then untied the low ponytail on his head and let his hair fall behind his head.
At this time, the song "Come on Shampoo" was already ringing on the stage, and STAFF was also urging the members of the second single under group to come on stage. Perhaps because of his enthusiasm, Oda found a piece of paper from the corner of the dressing room.
He took a can of black body paint, unscrewed the cap, dipped his fingers in the paint and painted a stroke on both sides of his cheeks.
When Ito next to Oda saw Oda's behavior, the rock soul in his heart seemed to be inspired. He went over and put his finger into the paint, and drew two horizontal lines on the same position on his face as Oda's.
"Let's cool things down, partner." It seemed that the mark on her face inspired the Chuuji soul in Oda's heart, and she stretched out her hand towards Ito.
"Leave it to me!" Ito also reached out his hand and held it tightly with Oda.
The photographer on the side faithfully recorded this scene.
full moon night
don't know where
There was a distant howl
As the background music played, Oda and Ito walked down the steps, and the spotlights faithfully illuminated the faces of these two girls with great stage expressiveness.
Seeing some wild black scratches on the two people's faces, the fans were shocked at first, and then began to cheer enthusiastically.
The lights began to turn on and off quickly. Oda made his hands like claws, shaking his shoulders along with the music, and showed a somewhat arrogant smile to the audience. When he saw Oda's powerful expression
With his movements and aggressive smile, the calls from Oda's already strong fan base became even more powerful.
The strange thing is that when you are looked at with such contemptuous eyes by your peers or last time, you will feel very angry; but if the person is a beautiful girl much younger than you, it will make you feel angry.
I can't help but be attracted to her. Because Oda's personal aura is so strong, just like the alpha wolf in a pack, a howl can attract thousands of responses.

Along with the last line of Oda's solo lyrics, the members posed in front of the moon screen; Oda stretched out the index finger of his left hand and pointed upward, looking in the direction of the finger while walking through the exhibition.
Pavilion, the place where Oda points his finger is the full moon - the 13th day of the second lunar month, which is the time to break the soil and avoid getting married.
After leaving the stage, Oda quickly took Ito to the bathroom to remove the paint from his face. Although he knew that this behavior might be criticized by STAFF after the concert, Oda did not regret what he had done. After all,
At least in her own opinion, this incident definitely added points to the performance. Seeing Ito's happy expression next to her, Oda felt that she had the same idea as her.
Since the paint was not completely hardened not long after it was applied, it was easy to rinse off. After washing their faces and changing clothes, the two hurried back to the backstage, just in time to catch up with "The Antidote for the Heart". Seeing Weaving
When Tian came, Ikuta also held Oda's hand nervously.
A piano and a height-adjusted vertical microphone have been placed on the stage.
"Let's go, Ichiku-chan." Oda took a deep breath and picked up the tuned violin.
"Yeah." Ikuta nodded.
The two walked out from the side of the stage holding hands, walked to the center of the stage, and bowed deeply to the audience.
Ikuta sat in front of the piano, and Oda also stood in front of the microphone, pointing the violin at the microphone.
The two looked back at each other at the same time, and then started the ensemble at the same time in tacit agreement.
Oda actually particularly likes this arrangement of this song. Compared with the brisk melody of the original version, Oda believes that the lyrics of this song are more suitable for the eloquent way of instrumental accompaniment.
everyone's heart
They all hide a blade
Everyone will hurt someone unintentionally
It also makes people cry
what to live for
Who does your life exist for?
Occasionally depressed and occasionally lost
Stand up strong again
Oda doesn't like indecisiveness, because this so-called gentleness is like a knife, which will inadvertently torture others very painfully. This is also the reason why she rejected Nishino so decisively, and this is also why she knew that Nishino wanted to
When they moved, they didn't show any reason why they wanted to stay.
She knew that Nishino's mother's words about moving here were just excuses. If Nishino wanted to continue living next door to her, she could afford it with her current financial strength.
Oda respects all decisions made by Nishino and does not want his actions to cause Nishino to make choices that go against his own heart.
She also believes that Nishino will stand up strong again.
