Stage Inoue Yoshimasa's [Kamikyoku Shibari] (2017/07/20 - 2018/12/25)

From the snippets Everyday Katyusha was throaty and often not onkey but thats expected. IMO they should either get more training or avoid doing vocally focused perfs. But the rest was good.

 

Just watched the stage and i liked it. The only thing i didn't like was kamonegix's rearrange, i recognize the sound as the same they use for introduce the song in some concerts but it feels all over the place when used throughout the song. I also would have liked to have a more "strong" song for the piano+sax rearrange, i felt that the Sax sound was really subtle.

 

I don't follow Team 8 much, but after watching the LOD I've got to say I like Honda Hitomi.

 

These aren't my favourite members but I can still appreciate it. So much energy, I wish Zukki would be here she would fit right in.

 

if the video does not show watch the video here

 

Amazing, wonder, fantastic, exciting, lovely...I wish I could just insert that Lady Gaga gif lol.

A truly good stage filled with good songs and good remixes. Tano-chan and Yoko-chan went hardcore and that's the shit I want to see. Everyone did a wonderful job. Oda Erina, Yoko-chan, Tano-chan, and Honda Hitomi, were the true MVP's in this stage. Nao and Nana did a really good job too.

only complaint: I think we can get rid of Kojina Yui doing Saba Kaidou, and replace it with something similar, but it wasn't really that good of a performance. It's the only song that felt flat to me out of the whole stage. Maybe just have someone else sing the song? IDK. I guess it doesn't help that it's my least fav A-side from Wasamin either lol.

 

As much as I love Jiina, I agree with this. The song felt really out of place. There's all these cool remixes and then all the sudden, there's this enka song. Vocal wise, it was okay. Jiina's lower register is decent. She still needs some vibrato to spice up the song though.

 

lmao, I know that gif, it's one of my favourite Gaga gif.

That's also one of the thing in the stage that does not sit well in my mind. Of all songs, they chose her to sing Enka and we all know Enka without its crazy vibra is not really Enka, and Jiina kinda lacked in that department. The prelude where Miichan said something before Jiina's performance kinda makes me think this is just a comical performance.

 

Is it bad that I just skip the MC segments cause the stages are so long already and I just want to see the performances? lol. So, if she did say something I 100% missed it. And if it was comical or like a "Jiina-style" song then ok, that's cool, but it just doesn't fit the stage at all. And before she sang her song we had Nana and Mii-chan doing their thing and their performances were nice. Either way I have no idea why it was added lol.

Exactly. Like it just sounded like a normal song right? Enka has a specific style and even Wasamin had some struggle so I can't imagine many other girls in the 48-family doing enka properly let alone do it close to Wasamin. Oh well, if I watch the stage again, I might just skip it that song (unless it's someone else singing it).

 

I dislike enka so I was glad that Jinna sang it straight rather than insert all that warbling. Her voice is pleasant and she's pleasant to look at so it worked imo.

The changes to Nakinagara finally meant that I could tolerate that song, usually it's the most boring song in any performance it appears in. Kamonegix was turned into a tolerable song also, I always disliked that song and now it's pretty decent, not sure about those huge cargo pants they're wearing for the dance tho.

Katyusha was good but it did have a "airport hilton cabaret" type of vibe to it

 

I like enka and I think she gave it a good go. Honestly better than some of the other enka attempts the 48G have made...

 

Was the stage a one time thing or they'll do it again at some point?

 

True!
I think the stage is good since the setlist is nice and the dancing is great but mostly I love the 48g crossover interactions!

 

^ohhhhhhh I hope Yuiri subs in for OdaEri or Hiichan
