at Nakano Sun Plaza lobby, you're free to take a picture of these boxes with Hello! Project's 20th Anniversary logo. Its just decoration for the anniversary...or maybe it is a symbol that there is surprises ahead?

Running setlist commentary.

Spoiler: show

Most of the Kenshuusei I would want to see in Ichioka's group are participating, so if they do announce her members (providing they don't have some girls backstage), I'm probably going to be pretty happy about the choices.

I'm very much enjoying feeling like things have come full circle with a former trainee writing a song for the current trainees.

Morning Musume's new song title sounds like Spring.

Whoa, a Michiyo song.

[Solarblade]

Wow...GET was performed? That's a nice throwback!

[JonCC]

While a cool setlist (seriously some great stuff in there), this feels like an Apple keynote that's missing it's 'one more thing' moment.
We've been waiting for six months now UF: make it happen.

---------------

And it didn't happen: disappointing, although sadly not unexpected.

At least there were no graduation announcements.

I'm puzzled as to why the media was there though. Because if they do announce something later in the tour (don't hold your breath) they sure won't be there a second time.
