For people to further appreciate the beauty of Fukyouwaon TAKAHIRO (choreographer for most of Keya's songs) appeared on KANJAM 16 Dec edition and explained the rationale behind the choreography behind Fukyouwaon. This is the Bilibili link (Chinese sub): https://www.bilibili.com/video/av38700629 I will try to translate from Chinese to English as the best of my capability Intro Talks about how at the start everything was stationary while Techi is the only one climbing up, then everyone only burst into action after she throws out a punch. (Something about how the feel of one person pressing onto the rest) A Melody (Explanation of the 'Advancement' Formation) Formation advancing forward. Takahiro explains how moving forward gives off a sense of strong attack and make people feel pressured. So when a group advances forward in formation, it gives the audience the feeling of being cornered. Then the body breaks into two and advances to the side of the stage. Takahiro says that when choreographing a dance, front-back movement on the stage will not appear very clear to the audience. However, side movements will give the audience a stronger visual impact. So side movement is a very effective method to present a visual. Thus front-back movement to give the psychological impact while the side movement to give the visual impact, this is a effective combination. PS// somebody commented this is like those formation thinking in the Kingdom manga, how to employ formations. B Melody (Explanation of the 'Arrow Tower' Formation) After multiple advancement of the formation giving off the relentless psychological pressure onto the audience, the feeling of being attacked, if the choreograph uses the same move again the audience will get used to it. So what comes next will be playing with the height. Thus carrying one of the member and let her do the move of shooting an arrow, through this height difference visual, it will give a different feeling to the audience. Makes the audience feel even more pressured. Pre-Chorus (Explanation of the 'Reducing' Formation) In the melody, we have been using the relentless advancing and height difference effect, the feeling has always been adding on. So when it reach the peak, it will climax with the shouting of "Boku wa Yada". If the choreograph were to follow the feeling of the lyrics, it will just maintain a straight climb up and there will be no change in the psychological state of the audience. Thus, I will let the members squat down in groups sequentially. This will let the high intensity of the scene drop and disappear completely, then burst with the shouting of "Boku wa Yada". This will make it like a rollercoaster ride. D Melody (Displaying of the core theme of Discord) When Techi shakes off the hands of another member, it changes from before the advancing together in formation to the whole group attacking Techi. This change of scene and beginning to emphasize on the the next visual. After hearing this explanation from TAKAHIRO, I feel like most of Kanji Keya's performances will be best appreciated in theatre settings. This song is a masterpiece. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mg--6QzubhM

Could have been a double center with Yuipon and Zuumin However I agree that if you want a fierce song give it to Suzumon while Neru could probably center a more "tame" song. Risa is one of my favourite member, but I can't picture her centering a Keya main song.

It's been a long time since I've seen Keyaki having such a complete group performance in terms of number, camera work and the whole vibe. I hope the answer to your question is not like what happened to Zuumin. Sometimes even if you wanna get back to the game, you might find yourself too detached from the rest of the group if you take too long a break. I guess that's how idol works given how fast things move and how short some of their lifespan is.

Youtube just recommended PAIN IS BEAUTY to me, and its a bop.

This, Maiyan should have centered the song.

Turn out the rumour lineup is true, ok not the position but member ok correction the lineup seems to be true too lol

Found this on fb

Went to a ramen shop in Sapporo and guess whose signatures I saw?
