 On September 27th, when SUPER ★ DRAGON, a 9-member mixture unit, performed their first live five years ago, they held an anniversary live of the 5th anniversary of their formation in a two-part system day and night. Lively "PARTY -Lunch Time-" where the songs to be performed are decided at the request of the fans while talking in the daytime, and "CEREMONY -Dinner" which shows the progress and culmination of 5 years with pure live performances and images at night. "Time-" and two performances with completely different tastes will be aired on Nico Nico Live. He was impressed by the performance and words that he generously expressed the emotions and emotions he had gained over the past five years, and announced that he would release a new mini-album on December 23 after the performance. ★ I vowed to walk with DRAGON.

Standing out with rough appearances such as shirts and denim, nine people delivered from the open outdoor open space "PARTY -Lunch Time-" which started at 12:00. Here, the live performance is really casual in appearance and content, soliciting requests with the comment function and voting with the questionnaire function for various themes, and deciding the set list on the spot according to the result. Was voted. In other words, everything is an improvisational performance. For example, "Wacha-Gacha!", Which was selected in the question "Songs I want to listen to during lunch break," is confused as "Mecha after a long time" and "I don't remember my standing position at all." There is also one act in which the comment "Do your best!" Is sent to the members. After finishing the song, Koki Tanaka was amazed that it was a real Wacha-Gacha, while Hayate Iijima, who danced perfectly without any hesitation, was praised by the members and fans for his outstanding memory.

Also, in the heavy rock song "BADASS" with the order "Become a female idol", Hyoma Ikeda shows off her professional skills, with the members who can't dance because of their own capicapi. For the unreasonable order of "Baby" and "WARNING", the characters "Chaos!" And "Horror!" I will expose. I thought, but at the end, it overwhelmed the viewer with a serious performance. "Ring, Love" sings a tingling love in the summer breeze, "La Vida Loca" sings a wild passion, and "Endless Dance" sings a refreshing desire for dreams in the comments section. Show it as a "gap". While entertaining the life-sized youth with an average age of 18, at the end, they gave a glimpse of their dignity as an artist, and on the screen, words of gratitude were lined up, saying "I'm glad I met", "Congratulations on the 5th anniversary, and thank you". ..

Then, at 19:00, while looking back on the history of the past five years with live footage, members dressed in suits, led by the oldest Reo Shimura, entered one by one. When everyone got together, the nine people opened the curtain of "CEREMONY -Dinner Time-" from "Monster! (Remix)" on the stage where ancient Greek columns and drape curtains create a sacred mood. Their adult mood, with a tropical quaint sound and a sexy singing of a love affair that can't be helped, and skipping a "kiss of a moment" from their fingertips, makes the comment section "too different from lunch" at once. In addition, Tsuyoshi Furukawa sings with a generous smile in "WARNING", where even the youngest Shibasaki Raku oozes sweat and sorrow, and in "LRL -Left Right Left-", a thread under the lighting that casts a blue shadow. Since the undisturbed unison dance strips sharp fangs like a beast aiming for prey, it is understandable that the comment "I can not bear the heart of an adult Spadora" flows.

When I felt like I was absorbed in all the energy in the first three songs, here is the first live video five years ago and the interview video of the members looking back on that time. It was a feature of the "CEREMONY" performance that each block of the live, such an interview video was sandwiched instead of MC, and it greatly contributed to knowing the history of the five years they have walked and the true intentions of the members. In addition, the production unique to the distribution that the current 9 people overlap with the 9 young people who will perform "HACK MY CHOICE" at the first live and take over "HACK MY CHOICE" as it is is goosebumps. The nine people who get off the stage and go on the red carpet have an order of magnitude larger body and performance scale, and they can feel the growth of 5 years straight. Also in the early song "BAD BOY", I was surprised at the dynamic camera work that projected the characteristic swings that stick out the palms one by one as if licking them one by one. What can you do instead because you can't meet in person? The fact that we are thinking to the limit can be seen from such a place.

Following an interview where each member talked about creatives that he had challenged over the past five years, such as backflip, choreography, design, human beatbox, and death voice, he played "New Game," which Jean Kaito said he was involved in the production. .. Last summer's Noon Tour was performed by three rappers, Jean, Tanaka, and Tomoya Matsumura, but this time, for the first time, all nine of them were fascinated by the dynamic formation, and finally Jean's precise animation dance caught the eye. And I thought it was dark, but the long-awaited debut of the phantom masterpiece "Song For You" presented by only two vocalists! Furukawa and Ikeda, who sat back to back on the red carpet, sang a graduation song that hit the lacrimal glands and faced each other from No. 2. The emotional singing of the two who look a little shy is carried over to "Summer Breeze", which joins the seven dancing on the stage, and two sweet vocals and three masculine raps are added for a summer. I will draw the love of the soul slowly and richly. And the R & B song "Bring Back", which sings goodbye to a loved one, evokes a beloved Memory with live footage from the past. Where I have no choice but to cry, I'm afraid that I will drop the new song "SAMURAI" that was delivered in August as if to slash the lingering sound, and shake off the emotion from right to left with a surreal "SAMURAI" dance. However, this song, which depicts a time slip to Edo with a light rhythm, is also spelled in the last phrase, "I will not cry because there is no one who can not meet again", and it is a song that should be conveyed in this situation now. There is no doubt that there is.

Here, UTA, who is also known for producing songs by TVXQ and Daichi Miura, was invited as a sound producer, and the latest song "Burning in the night" released on September 23 was performed for the first time. First of all, the next moment when I was surprised by the acrobatic dance track where the members shoot the solo dance of nine people starting from Shimura while relaying the cameras one after another, Tanaka's emo singing voice suddenly sees a fantastic world. Invite someone. The magnificent and mysterious number that connects Furukawa and Ikeda with Furukawa and Ikeda, and connects Jean to Matsumura and rap is a song of the night that brings the moonlit night to mind. The dance act seems to express the passion hidden in the cold dark night, and makes me feel more urgently the lyric that cuts into the core, "There is no night without dawn" and "If you die with music, you want to die". In the interview video before the song, I was completely convinced that the members said, "I created it with all the members while reflecting what I learned in 5 years", "The choreography is the highest difficulty ever", and "The culmination of 5 years". The song made me feel even a sacred aura, and gave a vivid impression in just two and a half minutes.

In the next block, the older group of fire dragons and the younger group of thunder dragons will alternately perform unit songs to ease such tension. First of all, four fire dragons wearing sunglasses presented "On My Way" to funk, and not only Iijima's rap, but also Ripe Jean's rap and Furukawa's vocals with fake, and fashionable that can not be heard at SUPER ★ DRAGON. Entertain with the feeling. Turn around, with the truss built like a ruin in the background, Thunder Dragon shakes his body while leaving a feeling of Yancha with reggae "Caravan", and Furukawa and Jean listen with twin vocals in Fire Dragon's "Drive Me Crazy" However, the comment section just boiled over to Jean's beautiful voice, who is usually in charge of rap. If Shimura and Iijima enter there as dancers and embody a painful love with a dance with a story, then the five Thunders will give off a sex appeal that can not be thought of as high school students at "Midwinter Tropical Night", and "Maybe it will stop my heart." I ran an ambulance in the comment section. One of their strengths is that SUPER ★ DRAGON, Fire & Thunder, and three groups with different musicality can evolve with their respective vectors.

"The strength of SUPER ★ DRAGON is that there are nine people" (Iijima), "When it's hard, when it's fun, if SUPER ★ DRAGON can be close to your life" (Shibasaki), "Evolution will never stop, fans "I want to walk with you" (Tanaka), "I want to deliver songs that can solve your worries" (Ikeda), etc. After an interview in which each of them frankly conveyed their feelings for SUPER ★ DRAGON, they fold the rock tune while following the movements of the members with one camera, and go to the climax at once. In "SWEET DEVIL", while delivering an aggressive rap with the ruins set in the background, in the catchy chorus, you turn at once and face the majestic stage to the rear, and you can taste the exhilaration that penetrates to the heavens. Magic too. In "Mada'Mada'", which was connected by Matsumura's fan, a camera entered the inside of the nine people in a circle to capture the members 360 degrees, and the spring tour "Kowloon" was canceled while the voice of the beast roared. The solo dance that was supposed to be performed in "Area" delights the fans. All nine of them showed the momentum of the rising dragon with their highly aggressive actions, but the comment section was also noisy for the performance of Sougo Ito's masculinity, which was the most baby-like performance in the daytime performance. Shimura also changed the jump at the show to an acrobatics on the red carpet, which was also praised. When Jean instigated, "You guys in the back of the screen, you can still go up!", The live iron plate song "Untouchable MAX" boiled the viewer's adrenaline. Tanaka's human beatbox is also clear in the bright red lighting, and with a military swing that releases the machine gun, it surely shoots through the viewer's heart.

One and a half hours from the start. The first MC was finally set up here, and Shibasaki was breathless, saying, "It's the first time I've done a live concert without talking so far." Iijima also said, "The amount of heat is amazing!" And said, "There is a dress code for the 5th anniversary ceremony," and told me why today's costume is a suit. Then, as each of them expressed their feelings for the 5th anniversary, they said, "I didn't expect it to continue like this," and "I was blessed with the surroundings." Jean said, "Because the time we spend with these nine people has become commonplace, I'm impressed with the sound of the 5th anniversary." Matsumura said, "I loved dancing and took me to the fun world of rap." SUPER ★ DRAGON. Today "HACK MY" I'm proud of the members, song splits, and formations that were the same as when I first performed "CHOICE." In addition, Shibasaki, who is more than 30 cm taller than when he was formed, stared at the camera, saying, "I've grown so much in five years. Everyone really loves it!" Shimura said, "Before doing SUPER ★ DRAGON, this I was thinking of quitting my job, but it was really hard to give up what I liked, and I thought I'd do my best again. The existence of SUPER ★ DRAGON changed my life. " Confess. In addition, Ikeda said, "SUPER ★ DRAGON changed me because I'm really bad at socializing and I'm stuck in the shell right away. I can't continue for five years unless I'm happy and rewarding." For example, Tanaka also said, "I didn't like to stand in front of people because I wasn't good at performance, but as I went on, the switch turned on. I want to keep doing it with these nine people. I don't want to leave SUPER ★ DRAGON for the rest of my life. ", Surprise the fans with shy words that cannot be imagined from the aggressive and skillful performance. On the other hand, Iijima said, "I'm really glad I was born in a family called SUPER ★ DRAGON. Now I can't see your voice or applause, but I have your love in our hearts. What kind of situation? But we are united with strong love, "said Ito, who is also active as a railroad talent." I want the railroad for me to be SUPER ★ DRAGON for everyone. I would be happy if you could touch the live performance and get well. " And finally, Furukawa said, choosing words. I would be happy if you told me. " And finally, Furukawa said, choosing words. I would be happy if you told me. " And finally, Furukawa said, choosing words.

"I'm very lonely to be an unattended person, but I'm so happy that I'm so hot that I'm enjoying the existence of SUPER ★ DRAGON and I'm scared to keep updating that feeling. SUPER ★ If you compare DRAGON to one person, we are in the growth period. Therefore, we may be worried or impatient with various things, but since we are in the growth period with six teens, we still have a future. hope is not only. Why? because, I we SUPER ★ is so DRAGON taken together various things. securely open up their way, we would like to fluttered in the world which is not seen yet, "

and finished story, missing a beat The intro of the dialogue title song "SUPER ★ DRAGON" sounds, and Ikeda sings powerfully, "We will change the times." The camera projected the prepared expressions of the nine people, who proceeded on the red carpet and returned to the stage, and all of them performed a unison dance together, without missing any of them. And, "I would like to continue to pursue the goals, dreams, and hopes that the nine of us will never change. Let's continue to support each other and support BROTHERHOOD!" Furukawa spit out and his friends. To the famous song "BROTHERHOOD" that sings the bonds between each other. The hand sign of SUPER ★ DRAGON held by 9 people in the chorus raises the emotion from the eyes, the beatbox battle between Tanaka and Jean raises the emotion from the ear, and in the scene where the members of the big chorus cross their shoulders, 9 people surround the camera, just like the screen Stretch your arms toward the camera as if you were crossing your shoulders with the fans over there. Comments such as "tears can't stop" and "all five years are treasures for fans" flowed in such a moving scene, and when the nine people struck their fists of determination, the curtain of "CEREMONY" closed.

It's been over two hours, which is unprecedented for a live broadcast, and what made me keenly aware of the fulfilling live performance that made full use of the images that look back on the history of five years and the dynamic camera work was the appearance of nine people working together to take on the challenge. The official calendar for the daytime performance was announced to be released in November, but it was also announced that the new mini album "Burn It Black ep" will be released on December 23rd at the end of the end roll of the nighttime performance. SUPER ★ DRAGON has always challenged the limits and proved his stance of betraying expectations and meeting expectations at the live performance of the day. I believe that this mini-album, which will be released for the first time in a year as a CD, cannot be expected too much.
