Translation & Subtitles: thoseguiltyeyes | scandal-heaven.com Today is August 21, 2021.
It's the day of our solo concert at Osaka-Jo Hall.
It's still early in the morning,
but we've arrived at Osaka-Jo Hall.
It's been so long!
It's our first solo concert here in 7 years.
It's like, "It's been that long!?"
I'm really looking forward to it.
I basically just woke up, though.
I'll wake my head and body up little by little and get ready.
Good morning!
It's been so long!
We're back.
Good morning.
Ah, it's been so long!
If you would!
I'm happy I get to do your concert makeup for the first time.
Thanks for doing this on an important day!
Is this a photo spot for the band?
The Apollo merch is so cute!
That's so big!
So cute.
Are these from fans?
That's right.
Wow!
Message boards made by fans have been delivered to our dressing room.
Thanks!
Also, here are flowers from the OJH staff.
Thanks so much!
-So cute! -So lovely!
There's something else we'd like you to see.
Eh, what is it?
All of these great things are happening right after we've arrived!
-What is it? -There are a lot of things.
What is it?
This is awesome!
It's like a certain arena.
That's true.
"SCANDAL's history! 15 years' worth of releases and concerts in the Kansai area" edition!
Ah, concerts?
The green text ones are the CLUB QUATTRO performances.
Wow, this is so nostalgic!
Kitaoka-san made this.
-Eh, Kii-chan! -Wow!
Thanks!
What the?!
Kii-chan has been supporting us since our street performance days--
he's the promoter who's been working with us the longest.
That makes me so happy.
Good morning!
-So awesome. -Right?
-That's all for the prefaces. -Got it.
Thank you!
First, we'll get our makeup done in order.
Let's do our makeup.
It's hard to come up with a few words for Osaka-Jo Hall.
"We're happy we got to come back."
It's been 7 years, after all.
"Our first time here in 7 years! We're happy we got to come back :)♡"
Going to have my makeup done.
We're doing makeup for an arena performance.
Thank you.
So many sparkly things.
All of the sparkly things are here.
Thank you very much.
My makeup's done.
So sparkley.
I'm going to eat now.
Let's eat.
Here's our stylist Kyohei-san.
You taking a video?
If you would.
I'm about to fall asleep.
-Have you seen this summer-themed area? -Eh, I didn't know it was there.
This is so nostalgic!
What's with this summer-themed area?
I'm tearing up.
All right, your uncle's here.
Good morning!
I have the usual.
-Happy birthday! -Thank you!
I'm so happy!
Wow, this is great!
Socks and a makeup remover towel.
-I'm sure you're looking forward to today. -I am!
-I'll do my best. -Do your best!
I took an early look [at the venue] yesterday,
and it really is vast.
-What do you think? -It'll be great.
Right on the mark.
Did you read this?
The staff's passes.
Eh?
-Read it. -I can't read it!
The text is too small, and it's too close to me.
"To our concert staff:
Thank you for the always reassuring support.
It's thanks to all of you that we've safely welcomed our 15th anniversary.
Let's make today too the best night ever! From SCANDAL."
Aaah.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
Our photographer Nakajima-san.
These are the t-shirts we'll wear for the encore.
Kyohei-san [our stylist] put these together by hand.
They're so cute.
You and RINA-san each wear half of each shirt.
-They're opposites. -Yeah!
We each have one piece of each.
So cute.
Nice - they have a special feel to them.
Yay!
They really scream "15th anniversary."
-They do? -Yeah, they scream "15th anniversary."
Shall I head out?
I'm heading to rehearsals now.
Thank you.
It's been so long~
This will be our third overall performance at Osaka-Jo Hall.
So excited.
But it feels like we'll play our most laidback performance here so far.
It's been so long!
Looking good!
We're going to start rehearsals now.
This is what it looks like from my drum set.
It's the best.
By the way, I'm using a new drum set as of today.
Rehearsals are done.
They did a birthday surprise for me on stage.
It happened so quick that I wasn't able to record it,
but it might be posted to our band's official YouTube channel,
as part of "her" Diary.
That made me so happy!
It was so touching.
HARU's here.
How were rehearsals?
It feels like we've already finished one performance.
Right? We rehearsed so much!
But since we have time left--
about two and a half hours,
so we'll rest a bit and then work hard.
Can't wait.
Today can't be anything else but fun.
We'll make sure to communicate that.
That's all.
We'll do our best!
Here's a birthday present!
Thanks so much for giving a gift this year too!
-I completely forgot. -That's totally fine.
Please think only of the concert.
I'm so happy!
Please do some forest bathing at home.
Eh, what is this?
It's a room spray.
It's from a brand called BAUM.
It's also a sustainable brand.
Ah, nice.
Thanks so much for the birthday present!
-Thank you! It's from the team at our agency? -Yes, it is.
I'm so happy.
It's so big.
What could it be?
-Is it a piece of equipment? -Yes.
-Since you wanted your space for computer music to be better... -Uwa, seriously? So much pressure!
Wow! I'm so happy!
It's a speaker.
-It's a really small but really good speaker. -I'm so happy!
Since we're having to check [music] at home more often,
we thought you could decide by listening to those via these speakers.
Thank you so much!
Happy birthday!
This is a bonus photo book.
"sisters." Ah, it's so cute!
This is adorable!
When I found it, I was like, "I need to buy this!"
Thank you! It's lovely!
There are all kinds of sisters in it.
I'll take my time going through it.
Thanks!
Eh, what could this be?
-Congrats! -Thanks!
I'm getting revenge this year for something that you said you wanted last year.
-What does that mean!? -Finally?
Yes, finally.
Ah, I'm so happy!
Plates picked out by TOMO.
There's a big one and a small one.
-They match. -Eh, really? Yay!
The colors are cute.
I'm so happy!
I'll use them carefully!
Thank you!
I've now given plates to all of the band members.
Yay! I got them!
Oh yeah, I haven't seen the one from the concert team.
-Ah, that's right! Take a look! -What is it?
This is...
It might be connected to what the agency team gave.
Another piece of equipment?
Ehhhh?
Wow, this makes me so happy!
Rather than inputting music via a computer,
there are sounds already included in it.
Ones that are like, "boom, bang, boom, boom, bang."
They're already included in it?
There are sounds included in it.
Eh? So you can connect it to a computer?
You can.
-So, you're telling me to write songs? -That's right.
I'm being rushed!
They're coming one after another.
From the "her" team?
To SCANDAL...
Eh! Is that what's going on?
Happy 15th anniversary!
Thank you so much!
-I'm so happy! Thanks! -Congrats!
Ah, could this be it?
Eh, what is this? The concert's logo?
We wanted it to actually be like this.
Ah! So that's it!
I'll put this up at home.
Thank you!
What could it be?
Thanks for giving me presents every year!
That's all-purpose rose water.
-Is it for the body? -Yes, and you can put it on cloth too.
It smells great.
Also, a shower gel.
There's one more thing.
Ah, this one!
What do you call this again?
A [popourri] sachet!
You hang it up and it gives off a scent.
Wow!
There are so many sweets in here!
This is awesome!
(Thank you, Meiji♡)
Isn't this awesome?
"RINA no Yama" [A custom box of "Kinoko no Yama" sweets made by Meiji]
It's super rare.
Thank you so much!
Congrats!
I'm so happy!
Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday dear Yaoyao!
Happy birthday to you!
Congrats!
Thank you!
It's a little early, though.
Thank you very much.
Thanks so much for always taking cool photos!
Ah☺️
Should I open it?
Ah😮
Thanks so much!
It's a mask case,
and something to store camera equipment in.
So cool - thank you very much!
Congrats!
It's been a long time since I've received a birthday present.
Are you happy?
Yeah☺️ Thanks!
Four minutes before the show starts.
We'll do our best!
I'm off!
It's been exactly an hour since the concert ended.
It's already been an hour?
It doesn't feel like it.
How was it?
-It was the best. -Right?
It was so much fun.
It was fun,
and I'm glad that we were able to play a laidback performance.
Your MCs were great.
Thank you very much.
I was able to convey everything that I wanted to.
For sure.
Both the performance and the MCs.
We were able to get it all out.
But we did it all while being true to ourselves.
-No frills. -Right?
-It was such a great concert. -Yes.
-Thanks! -I'm glad!
Good work!
How was it?
It was really... How should I put it?
In a good way,
it was just as exciting as playing at a live music club.
We talked about this earlier,
but the first...
The first times we played at Osaka-Jo Hall,
it was like there was a wall in front of us--
like there was darkness on the other side.
This time, we were aware of each and every person--
We could see even those in the last row raising their hands.
It feels like we were able to be at ease for this performance.
I'm happy that we were able to play in such a natural state at OJH.
Yeah.
Like, there are a lot of things I've realized, entering our 15th year.
There are?
Like for the MCs,
that mindset--or rather,
I'm glad that we were able to do it feeling that way from the start.
That's true.
15 years have passed.
Yeah.
It was fun!
Good work!
Thanks so much!
How was it?
It was fun.
It's been a while since we've played a solo concert in front of a lot of people, right?
Yeah, that's true.
Although the venue could only be filled halfway,
it seemed like there was an incredible amount of people.
Well, there were a lot,
and how moving it was to be able to see everyone all at once was amazing.
That's true.
We got to see everyone for the first time in forever,
and just getting to see everyone made me really happy.
Yeah.
I want to do it all again.
Do it again?
In another...
-couple of years. -Yeah.
It'd be awesome
if can keep being a band that decides to play at OJH at a perfect timing.
Yeah.
-I want to play in front of a packed crowd. -Yeah.
This was our third time playing here,
and all three times have been sold out.
We're grateful to have celebrated them with everyone amidst audiences full of people.
Yeah.
Thanks so much!
Good work!
Lastly, here's the four of us.
Yep!
Thanks so much!
We're making new songs right now.
Look forward to them!
We're coming out with a single called "one more time."
The four of us will continue dispatching fun music without stopping during our 16th year too,
so please continue to support us!
Thanks so much for watching until the end!
Bye bye!
