So I was lucky enough (because I'm in the fanclub) to get able to go to Seto's Fanclub Solo event! I originally had two tickets because I'd also accidently got tickets for his show in Osaka xD But in Tokyo I had tickets for the Second Show of the day so after a quick 6 lessons at work, I ran over to Nippori (to a very nice hotel by the way!) got lunch and found the venue.
This is the set he had for his event. He plays 'Setti' who is like Seto Koji's failed twin brother or something xD It's hilarious how even though it's HIS event, he's playing a character and he/Setti even mentioned (as a joke) that even off stage Seto Koji plays a character xD BUT we're getting too far ahead.
PreShowI got there just before the First show ended (it ended about 3pm) and the staff we luck enough to open the sales for the second show about 5 minutes early (they were supposed to start at 3) but, I was like the only one there and said 'Can I buy goods yet?' and they looked at the time and went 'yeah.. why not. 3 pm goods are open people!' xD Which was nice of them ^_^ For me I bought his shirt and bromides and then I bought the lunch bag and bromides for the lovely Tilmon <3
My friend Rika went to both shows so after buying good I waited for her to come out and we went to a cafe to spend time talking about the event before we went back for it. She talked about how she'd been to previous Seto Solo events and that this was the best one yet. She spoke about how it's a lot more fun with it being D Date and not just Seto and Araki/Horii (which was the last one I think). And she also said 'everything this time is so much better and interesting!' so naturally my already nervous self got even MORE nervous and excited.
At the venue, while waiting to go in, some girls sat next to me pulled out some Macarons and then Yasukawa's bromides from Wakasamagumi. So naturally I couldn't NOT get involved, especially cos the bag I'd brought had Kamakari and JP's badges from the stage on! (btw review
here). So this was our conversation:
私/Me: 見ましたか？/ Did you watch it (Wakasamagumi)?
人/Them: (缶バッジ見て)あなたも見ました？/ *Sees the badges on my bag* You also saw it?
私: そうです。安川のファンですか？/ I did. Are you JP's fan?
人: そうです。/ I am
私: 私も！ / Me too!
人: いつ見ました？ / When did you watch it?
私: 今週の水曜 / This Wednesday
人: 今日見ました。明日は？ / I saw it today. Are you going tomorrow?
私: いいえ / No I'm not.
人: 明日も見ます / I'm seeing it tomorrow as well.
I hope the two of them had a good time! It was nice to find other fans of other things and be able to have a conversation with them xD at one point they also went 'kawaii / cute' to me and I'm still not used to it and don't believe it so I was like 'nah nah nah' xD
When I finally got it, turns out there's rows 1 - 7 BEFORE you get to row A - G. So even though I had Row F and thought I'd be towards the front, I was RIGHT at the back, but luckily there were only like 100 - 200 of us so it wasn't like we weren't close to him xD I got an aisle seat as well which was nice.
I didn't take a picture this time of my view - sorry!
Now to the show!
OverviewI didn't know what to expect as I knew it wasn't going to be a stage cos duh, it's an ACTOR SOLO EVENT but because he didn't post any information about the contents before the shows began, I was going in blind. All I knew what that there'd be a VTR of his last travel (this time with D Date) and that we'd either get a handshake or a high five at the end but even then I wasn't 100% we'd get that.
So let's have a break down first:
- Seto Introduction
- A Look at the Props around Seto
- Seto Character Ranking
- VTR Part 1
- VTR Part 2
- Singing Performance
- Find the Character
- 100 Names Challenge
- Story Book
I think that's all the sections so let's go full swing!
( ( Again this is long so be prepared ) )---
This wasn't a play so no overall section nor rating is needed! I'm so glad I went and I got to see some more sides to Seto that I've never seen before and it was great to finally meet this guy who I've been watching grow up for like 6/7 years! He really is the sweetest person and he's so funny and I hope I get a chance to meet him again and for a longer amount of time next time! ^_^
