And this performance was an encore, she was "running low on gas" after all the concert, think about it, she was stellar with depleted stamina, if they used "Idol" for the opening song how much better could she have sung it?
Congrats on reaching 300k subs man🎉🎉 love your reaction and how genuine yours is. You’re just a normal guy enjoying the entertainment the world has to offer and I love that perspective of live. Thanks man.
Idol ranked #7 in the US Billboard Global 200 Chart. Its a big win for anime fans and Japan’s music industry as a whole as its the highest ranking a Japanese artist achieved in the chart’s history
Although basically all tickets are sold out atm, ADO is doing a world tour across America and Europe amongst other places. perhaps you can manage to find a wild ticket for your location
The thing that makes it even more better is that, in the anime opening at this part aqua is shown as standing while the crowd cheers him on while in this Ikura is standing and the crowd is cheering her on its so cool
YOASOBI deserved everything that they had for this song, their talents will not go to waste, it's amazing how it went so well in terms of audience and I can't be more happier then their success.
This song, for obvious reasons, follows a lot of things from idol culture. It’s normal to include the audience in an idol performance. The songs are often made thinking of fanchants and they tend to have call and response sections. It’s part of the allure of idol culture.
Bro the crowds knowing when to shout and stay silent was amazing like the times where they were shouting and then suddenly silent was just amazing. I want to be there so bad
Hi from JAPAN ! Even in old concerts in Japan, the audience shouted and sang without permission, but the audience stopped shouting because they wanted to hear the singer's voice. Smartphones are also generally prohibited because they are in the way. Group action is Japanese culture.
I think I've already watched the video twenty times today. I can't get enough of it :D I love how energetic the band is. You can see that the guys and girls are really having fun! And with an audience like that, you can only have fun. In general, I just love the fact that hardly anyone is standing there with their smartphone all the time. Everyone is going crazy and partying. It's like they're literally part of the show!
Like on this year in Indonesia, we have so many live concert from japanese bands like: Yoasobi, Flow, Kana-boon, Radwimps, Babymetal, Man with a mission, One ok rock, Asian kung fu generation, and many more
If you watch the making-of video of the idol song, you will see in the background that the supporters who are shouting 'Hey! Hey!' are actually Yoasobi fans who came to the studio and recorded this part while meeting the Yoasobi group. That's why it's not difficult for the crowd to accompany easly. The anime and the song are incredibly harmonious.
To be precise, it was a dance group called “real Akiba boyz” that mainly uploads content on youtube! Their concept is to specifically dress up like otakus so Ayase thought it was a great idea to have them do the shouting part haha
That live performance is so good! I wondered how a song like that could be perform live, since it's not the usual normal song, but they are soo good and so tight! At the beggining, i wasn't really a fan of the song and didn't really understand the hype about it, but the more i listened to it, the more i loved it and now i'm obssessed! 😂 Especially after reading the lyrcis, this is such a briliant song and the live version is perfection! I think oshi no ko is one of my favorite anime! Can't wait for season 2! 😊
The Japanese have an incredible way of surprising with the lyrics of their songs and the contradictory with their music. songs like kagero days (wagaki band cover) and headphene actor by LiSA & Jin, are a great example...
Yaaaaaasss!!! Yes, I really agree with you, YOASOBI is a super duo. They're amazing. So talented, and they deserve all the popularity they're having 👏👏👏 If you want to check more Yoasobi live performances, I recommend you the live version of "Yoru ni kakeru". Just great. Greetings, Luke 🤗😊
The freaky doll behind your head, right in the middle of the screen, staring straight into my soul, caught me way off guard at around 5:45 (yes I know it's been in focus at around 3 minutes and probably at other times)
Nope Oshi no ko except for the first ep is garbage...but IDOL is there with the greatest ops of all times....and there are really good animes this year
I think it's purposeful that this song in particular has both a happy feeling on the surface, but there's parts underneath, and where it switches up that shows the "truth" as it were, that fit the lyrics. But i also wanted to mention, the western perspective of what music sounds happy vs sad is not universal. not everywhere is major chord=happy minor chord-sad. there are other cultures that use different music scales even than us.
OK so I'm late to the party here....my 1st exposure to YOASOBI's IDOL was not from anime but from watching a Japanese dance troupe called Aventgardey who danced to IDOL at America's got Talent this past summer. So I just had to find out who YOASOBI was.....man what an act... and much like all Japanese entertainers these folks practice their art to perfection. I'm amazed that she can breathe given the lyrics. Hell I'm 70 and lost my breath just watching.
Audience reaction to these concerts is common in Japan. This is because Japanese audiences want to be one with the musicians and create the moment. Fortunately, many well-known musicians from abroad have also been very appreciative of the reaction of Japanese audiences. As a result, they often choose Japan for concerts in Asia, which is why they come to Japan so often. And it is not limited to music concerts. The same atmosphere can be felt, for example, at baseball and boxing matches. Welcome to Japan. Ha ha.
I couldn't find it in the coments. You asked were the concert was. It was in Saitama Prefecture (north of Tokyo) in the "Saitama Super Arena. It is written in the title, but in japanese (さいたまスーパーアリーナ).
Yoasobi will open up for Coldplay at their Japan tour dates on Nov 6 and 7, 2023 at Tokyo Dome during the Music of the Spheres World Tour. Before that, they will perform in the US for the first time in Pasadena, CA in August.
We Japanese got astonished! At first we throw down at the bottom of hell like Bohemian Rhapsody"s Opera Part just like the Verdi's Requiem or Carmina Brana under the mood of Dooms Day! Also music goes on under the complex of changing chords to be puzzled taking us to the heave, but at the moment we are thrown down again into the tragedies and despair!
Love the song so much! Glad you reacted to this live version, watched/listened to it at least 100 times in past few days, too good! Also, gratz on 300k!
I really like spyair life preformeces, especially when they sing samurai heart (some like it hot), wich you already reacted to in your gintama ending reaction.
Must say I really lucky to win the ticket to be there... The crowd were literally clapping for 5 min straight before this encore start. def gonna catch her live next time... probably at The DOME... unless lul
There are good things and bad things about the "intimacy" between the bands and crowd in Japan. It invites parasocial relationships and creepy behaviour, as well. (Like someone giving their oshi a signed marriage certificate as only 1 example I've seen) Lives are usually really fun though. For the moves you referred to, in VKei, the moves fans do are called "furi" and are usually created by either the band or the front fans who are at every shows. There is a leader for each band who goes to every show and will be up front before the live so regulars can go "sign up" for a spot on the front line for their favorite bands. (Unlike big bands like YOASOBI, small bands tend to play in lives with 4-8 bands for a day) You cannot stand on the first line (saizen) unless you signed up and got accepted. There are specific rules to concerts that most people who go a lot learn to know. I won't add too much because I don't wanna write a book, but yes, fandoms are usually very dedicated and know the moves, or furi, of most of their favorite band's songs. (Some bands have excrutiatingly difficult furi too)
If someone had to sold their lung to go there and see it live, I'd say they made the smartest choice. Also, Rira Ikuta is so goddamn cute, I can only avoid mentioning it all the time cause her voice has to be praised first and foremost. Last but not least, I think the fact "Idol" is such a bop with high energy while having dark lyrics about the idol industry, is kind of a mataphor itself to idols, who keep so much high energy and bring so many smiles through a lot of pain and effort and even darker things that arent normally seen.
So, this song is like: The music: 😊😃😆 PPl who haven't watch the anime:😃😆 PPL who watch anime but dont understand the lyrics:🙂😶 PPL who understand the lyrics:💀🗿

It also ranked #1 in the global billboard chart excluding the US
And we'll deserved it's a banger that has taken the world by storm

I swear, I want to go to a Japanese concert for someone like Ado, Hiroyuki Sawano or YOASOBI.
The crowds are insane! They are on another level
Me too! It must be amazing!!
Although basically all tickets are sold out atm, ADO is doing a world tour across America and Europe amongst other places. perhaps you can manage to find a wild ticket for your location
日本のファンです。リアクションありがとうございます！！
彼らの歌詞がなぜ「推しの子」に繋がっているかというと、YOASOBIは「小説を音楽にするユニット」だからです。全ての楽曲に原作小説があります。彼らはまだデビューして3年弱ですが日々努力しています。ikuraちゃんの歌唱力は努力あってのものです。
このLIVEツアーも公演を追うごとに進化していき、この映像のような仕上がりになったのです。他のLIVEも沢山観てきましたが、YOASOBIは気持ちの良いLIVEを実現しています。
The crowd screaming 'Hai' is actually the part of the song. It's iconic. The song in itself is a wonder of the music world.
The thing that makes it even more better is that, in the anime opening at this part aqua is shown as standing while the crowd cheers him on while in this Ikura is standing and the crowd is cheering her on its so cool

Ah I didn't know that was something they take into consideration in the creation of the song! 🤯
Having been to Japanese concerts in Japan, I can tell you the audience is part of the performance.
Bro the crowds knowing when to shout and stay silent was amazing like the times where they were shouting and then suddenly silent was just amazing. I want to be there so bad
Really is 🔥🔥
Oshi no Ko's introduction in a anime perspective just changed a lot, the people in Japan just loves this franchise! I do not blame them!
Ah it's such a brilliant anime and storytelling! Can't wait for season 2!

❤️
歌手が歌っているときに叫ぶ…？はよくわかりませんが、今でも夏フェスとか行くと一緒に歌ったりしてますよー！
YOASOBIは難しくてみんな歌えないけど…笑

Japan's crowd taking W everywhere I've seen (FIFA WC, Valorant Masters, Live Concert)
The crowd participation is just phenomenal
She's the real Ai 💯
💯
The lights behind the last "ah, I can finally say this, this is not a lie, I love you" were the colors of ruby and aqua.
The confetti at the end got me so excited, I want to go so bad 😭😭😭😭

They do two "shots" in sync with the music.

@@Tomtom_tiger79so they're not vocals in the end if you dont otaku you cant do that. this guys comment is right
This was also the encore song. Imagine being there and screaming for an encore and you hear that intro. Crazy.
Idol has literally became my favourites anime opening this year
That live performance is so good! I wondered how a song like that could be perform live, since it's not the usual normal song, but they are soo good and so tight! At the beggining, i wasn't really a fan of the song and didn't really understand the hype about it, but the more i listened to it, the more i loved it and now i'm obssessed! 😂 Especially after reading the lyrcis, this is such a briliant song and the live version is perfection! I think oshi no ko is one of my favorite anime! Can't wait for season 2! 😊
I'm obsessed with this song and the live performance did NOT disappoint ♡
I've never seen Ayase smile that much ever, looks as if he's had the most fun hes had in years
By this point they know its breaking view records all over the world. Not bad for a vocaloid composer 🙂
This is one of my favorite songs and I like that it was made for the anime
I've been a fan of vocalist ikura since before she started working as YOASOBI, so this stage was unbelievably crazy in a good way.
The Japanese have an incredible way of surprising with the lyrics of their songs and the contradictory with their music. songs like kagero days (wagaki band cover) and headphene actor by LiSA & Jin, are a great example...
Is just like racing into the night the beat itself sounds so lively but the lyrics are heartbreaking
Japanese fans study the cheering choreo before they attend the concert. They will also practise before the concert starts
My first time seeing live concert of Yoasobi is in my country Indonesia, they're sing opening from Gundam WFM
“I wanna be there”
That video had me thinking that right away
7:21 yeah also Racing Into The Night, really dark lyrics but being an upbeat song
I have been looking forward to that reaction since the live dropped!!!! Thanks Luke
Never thought that oshi no ko has already a live action of AI performance
fr!
Yaaaaaasss!!!
Yes, I really agree with you, YOASOBI is a super duo. They're amazing. So talented, and they deserve all the popularity they're having 👏👏👏
If you want to check more Yoasobi live performances, I recommend you the live version of "Yoru ni kakeru". Just great.
Greetings, Luke 🤗😊
Really are!! So amazing!! 🔥
honestly, Ikura (the singer) is perfect fit as Ai Hoshino if they adapted it into life action.
I still rooted for Takahashi rie doing life action for ai 😅
Japanese Fans are the most disciplined fans in the world, you can't see anyone recording on their phones and they have a strict law on camcording
A mirror falling from the sky
*gets back thoughts of what happened at the Mirror concert*
oh
The live concert was soooo cooooool maaan i really love this.
So awesome!
8:08 was a perfect moment for the lights to imply Ruby and Aqua in red and blue, while the song goes "Ah I said it at last, I know it's not a lie..."
The freaky doll behind your head, right in the middle of the screen, staring straight into my soul, caught me way off guard at around 5:45 (yes I know it's been in focus at around 3 minutes and probably at other times)
I don't care about anything else but Oshi no ko have to win the best new anime award
not enough. it has to win anime of the year

@@pudinkeviar4151 well,u can't deny facts....Oshi no ko doesn't even begin to compete against best animes of this year
I understand only a little English.
Your emotional sentiments were universally conveyed like a YOASOBI song!
My friend was at this concert and she said it was epic~
I think it's purposeful that this song in particular has both a happy feeling on the surface, but there's parts underneath, and where it switches up that shows the "truth" as it were, that fit the lyrics. But i also wanted to mention, the western perspective of what music sounds happy vs sad is not universal. not everywhere is major chord=happy minor chord-sad. there are other cultures that use different music scales even than us.
Yeah The concert is damn wild, i was at 2nd level south wing doing crazy head bang with my friends

the beginning reminded me of the attack on Titans, this sound is like something epic is brewing.
YOASOBI FOREVER!!
あなたのリアクションが日本人として1番嬉しかった！
arigato!
This song is a fucking masterpiece
niceee i was waiting for this one
Yoasobi also uploaded a live performance of The Blessing from Gundam Witch from Mercury, and it's just as epic
CONGRATS ON 300K!!!
Appreciate you!
Even her taking that breath in the beginning with no music.. I am just shaken. 🥶
I couldn't find it in the coments. You asked were the concert was. It was in Saitama Prefecture (north of Tokyo) in the "Saitama Super Arena. It is written in the title, but in japanese (さいたまスーパーアリーナ).
whenever someone says yoasobi song sound happy i can't help but doubt their hearing
like you gotta be deaf to think this song sound happy
i was just now reacting to the reaction of RoninMan to "IDOL" Live
YEEESS!! I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE SAYING! I ALWAYS FEEL LIKE'S COMING SOMETHING HAVIER AND THAN COMES HER SWEET VOICE SINGING A JAPANESE HIPHOP
7:23 well i mean Pumped up Kicks also sound like this chill song with positive vibes.... until you read the lyrics
im like crying wtf, its just so sick lmao
I didn't even need to recommend it here, you were fast!
The intro is insanely epic!!
I even like the live performent more than the official one.
Yoasobi will open up for Coldplay at their Japan tour dates on Nov 6 and 7, 2023 at Tokyo Dome during the Music of the Spheres World Tour. Before that, they will perform in the US for the first time in Pasadena, CA in August.

This in like a gem in this century. I like it the more i listen
I think they have arena tour in Japan and they will attend HITC in LA
Anison plus rap change the pop music. I can't believe that yet. 😄
Love the song so much! Glad you reacted to this live version, watched/listened to it at least 100 times in past few days, too good!
