Yesterday I took the night bus that goes from Tokyo to Sendai! I arrived at Sendai Station at around 5AM but Nicole wasn't able to meet up till 9 or 10AM so I found a Starbucks to sit at and wrote my letter to Ryoya. I didn't have time to write a letter to Cion before Nicole came so I wrote it after the instore during lunch. The beacon quiche from Japan's Starbucks was sooooo good! Too bad they don't have it at the Starbucks in SF.
After Nicole came to find me at Starbucks, we walked in malls. After that, we went to a coffee shop that I longed to go to: The Mark. I've always wanted to try their tsumoothie. I got the matcha tsumoothie and it tasted so cute and the drink looked so cute! I came here for the little puff balls on the drink <3
（。＞ω＜）。
After we got coffee, I headed to the instore and Nicole waited for me somewhere in the mall. At the instore, I met up with Lindsay, who also came for the instore and today's live. I gave up on dressing in a girl outfit so I just wore jeans.

Today's instore outfit them was kigurumi. They sat in this order: Kira, Cion, Ryoya, Shikina, Kuu. My seat was the first seat to the right on second row so I had a hard time looking at Cion. I was less hyped at today's instore probably because I've finally gotten used to them or I wasn't able to have a good view of Cion... but I still enjoyed it though. I was looking forward to Cion wearing an animal outfit but he showed up as Mario. Cion was super actively hyper and random. He kept making Mario sounds and couldn't keep still at all on his seat. I love Ryoya's kigurumi the most!!!!! He was Elizabeth, the duck from Gintama!!!!!! Ryoya was so so so cute.
They answered questions from fans' question sheets by having all of them face down on the table and Kuu, who was the MC of the day, flipped them over randomly one by one to answer them. (I wrote one too and asked what their favorite food is)
Some of the Q&A that I remembered:
*Note that Ryoya doesn't talk so he writes his answers on his whiteboard and I mainly only remembered what Cion's answers were*
Q. What is your favorite food?
A. Cion: I have 5 favorite food. They are: sushi, yakiniku, monjayaki, pizza, and Mario! (he said his answer in a goofy accent. And yes, he said Mario. LOL. WHY IS HE SUCH A DORK <3)
Ryoya: Pizza
(I forgot what the other members answered and also, Kuu's reply wasn't even food.)
Q. Please do a cute pose (not sure if it's under certain conditions)
A. Cion: *he did a Love-Chuu-You hand heart pose with Kira*
Q. What do you want for Christmas?
A. Ryoya: PS4
Cion: *he thought for a little bit and then he said...* おまえ~ (Lindsay told me that after Cion said that, he thought about it for a while and he said no... because then something about he won't be popular anymore or wanted anymore, something like that. lol I laughed so hard when Cion said "omae")
Q: Do you like cute or pretty girls more?
A. Cion: both
After the talk part, we all had to go back outside the shop to line up for the satsueikai. I had 3 tickets: 1 group shot and 2 two-shots. I decided to use my cheki camera for the group shot and one of the two-shots. For the group shot, the staff asked me which two members I want to be next to and I choose Cion and Ryoya. The staff called for the two and I think I was supposedly walking to my seat but somehow I just stopped 2~3 feet before my seat for no reason(I think I wanted to wait for everyone to sit own before I do). Cion motioned for me to sit down and I motion back for him to sit down as well. After Ryoya sat down, the first thing I did was I turned to him and stuck my finger out reaching for his face. When he noticed my left finger approaching his face, he backed up a little because he didn't know why I reached my finger out for. After I poked Ryoya on the face and my finger just stayed there, I saw Ryoya smugged (like the *ha, I see whatcha trying to do* face). Omg for once I thought he was so hot when he made that face and then, I think I forgot about Cion's existence right after that and I just did a peace sign with my right hand and looked back at the camera. I was surprised by Cion's serious dull expression on my group photo though. Maybe it was because I forgot about his existence but he knew clearly I'm his fan, lmao.
Then it was time for the two-shot with Cion. As the other members walked away from seats, I felt Cion's left hand on my back and he immediately just shot his legs up on my lap and had a punch pose with his right hand. I was honestly caught off my surprised like what just happened!? Who said he could put his legs on my lap!? Who allowed him to!? That was super cute though because he was Mario of the day right~? Anyways, I didn't know what to do because I was still trying to digest his lap was on my lap so I just did a punch pose too and just had my right hand in a light fist on his lap because I had nowhere else to put it. And yes I was too excited and couldn’t stop smiling. My camera
most likely was super low in battery so it wouldn’t take the picture when the staff first clicked on it and then Cion took his leg off me and tried to help the staff make the camera work. He had the staff close it and open it again once or twice and it worked again. After the camera successfully turned on, he stuck his legs back on me again, the same pose. ASDFG WAHHH He was so cute!!!!!! And then photo was taken and he put his leg off.
Then it was time for the two-shot with my phone camera. I wasted no time! I told him I want a certain pose and I posed it to him to show him. And I made sure I said “SMILE”... well it was just in case he didn't follow the pose sample I did so I wanted to make sure.. lol. I wasn’t sure if he would close his eyes or not so I didn’t close my eyes (> n <) ugh. But he did..so yay?!?!!! (Although I'm the one who didn't follow my pose then). After that, I got up and said Thank you and bye. He said see you at the live and I said yeah. As I was walking out, I waved a Cion to say bye and then I saw Ryoya who was standing behind Cion waving at me too and so after I waved to Cion, I waved to Ryoya as well but it seemed like Cion thought I was still waving at him till the end. Haha.
（。＞ω＜）。
After the instore, I met up with Nicole again. We took purikura, ate lunch, and I took some time to write Cion a letter as well. After that, I took her to her bus stop and we parted ways. I then headed to the live and meet up with Lindsay again.

Main setlist:
This was the first one-man live I have been to for VRZEL. I was super excited for this day but it was also my last time seeing VRZEL on this trip. The live was so fun but also I felt pretty emotional during the whole thing. When I first walked into the venue floor, there were third row spots but none of them were the center spot so I stood on 4th row center spot instead. After everyone entered the venue, there were only about 5.5~6 rows of fans. I had almost a perfect view of Cion since 2nd and 3rd row had a gap in the center because people stood on the rows like this:
I liked where I was standing because I was on eye level view with Cion so it felt like I met eyes with him a lot during the live. Though it also may not be true since his expressions were all the normal live ones lol. I like how Cion changes up something at every live even though they are in stage outfit. He had a side pony tail today and had a gem under his eye.
They started the live with my favorite opening songs, CHARISMA and DOWSTER. I really enjoyed the whole setlist and the order of the songs. I feel the transitions between the songs were smooth. I tried to enjoy the live with all my heart because I needed to engrave these feelings inside me. I was doing fine till they started playing『』and 歪. I felt pretty emotional because those are two of my favorite songs and it was my last time hearing them live in this trip. During 歪, I had a somewhat serious face while I just stared at Cion during the lighter furi moments. I just really didn't want this live to end yet and wanted it to go on forever.
There was a minor change to the furi of the song 螺旋 today. Instead of just kneeling one circular rotation headbang, they had us do a hatte(?) headbang after that. (I'm not sure if I heard the term right but it was basically a front and back headbang while we were still kneeling). At first it was fine but then the music and beats got faster and faster... I had to stop and just let my head hang down because I was entirely of energy. After that, Cion said now to do the circular rotation headbang again and everyone has to (try) do it! Ok obviously I didn't do so. I knew Cion was going to do that part with the fans too so I was supposedly safe to just look at him without being caught.... but NO.... While I was looking at Cion, Kira caught me not headbanging (HE WASN'T HEADBANGING TOO THOUGH). Kira was laughing and pointing at me.... I just smiled from embarrassment and just put my head down.
Out of all the VRZEL lives that I've been to, today's live had the most headbang furi (it also could be because the setlist was longer than all the other lives that I've been to so far since this was a one-man). I have tried to all the furi and headbang as much as I could with full power BUT IT WAS SO DIFFICULT. I was so so so tired out and at times I almost fell over/tipped over during moments where there was a quick furi switch. For example, headbang-to-oritamami, headbang-to-jump, etc. I remember I had to stop during one of the headbang-to-oritamami switch after I've done only one oritatami because I was falling over to the front. The scariest part was when I had a sudden rush of dizziness for a moment during the middle of the live... I assumed it was either from headbanging or from fatigue.

During one of the headbang moments, I just stared at Cion because I didn’t want to headbang and he wasn't looking my way so I thought it was safe to do so... but then he end up staring back at me and giving me a pretty scary displeased face. I literally gave him a *Hi.... I couldn't do this* smile/laugh-face and waved at him. He was so scary though!!!! He still had that same *I'm not buying that shit* displeased-face on and I think he shook his head a little and then I just looked down to avoid.
And then during one of the other songs later on, I knew there would be a headbang moment but I was thinking maybe he won’t notice so my head this time and I happily shoot my head up to look at him but then I saw his glare was on me already as if he knew I wasn't planning headbanging (or he could just happened to be looking this way)... Either way, I immediately had this *opps I couldn't get away with it this time” and so I headbanged ( T o T ) *sob*
Encore:
During the encore it was so fun! In the beginning, only Cion came out. He said, "Welcome Thank you, haha (in English)" and then, he sang a cover of a jpop song, called チェリー, by Spitz. It sounded so beautiful when he sang it! I love it!!!!! That moment I was honestly impressed lol!
Next, he imitated Kuu and Kira playing the guitar and bass. (I forgot if he imitated Ryoya too or not) It was so funny because not only he played some guitar/bass, he also imitated their expressions as well and were pretty accurate on them. Also, from chekis and video clips, it seems like Cion knows how to play a bit of everything. He earned more of my respect! I always thought he was just an typical beautiful but immature vocal who doesn't have much skills other than singing and flirting (LOL, sorry). Shikina came out while Cion was too focused on playing the guitar and he suddenly played the drums, which scared Cion a little because he wasn't aware Shikina came out.
Cion talked about during oritatami, girls wearing short skirts/dresses should be careful and not accidentally showing their panties. And something like it's dangerous and something about perverted oji-sans and etc. I wasn't able to understand his whole speech but it sounded like he was caring for his fans..? Wow, that was really what he said, I suddenly feel Cion is a pretty good person!

After the MC, the members gave us a lesson on the furi for VAMP. They guided us on a short slower version and then we did the actual version. It was still difficult for me to do the furi so I failed in the end as well (T_T)
During the song Misery, Ryoya came down to the floor on the right side and was just doing weird things like laying on the floor or like encouraging people participate in the furi lol! He eventually went back up to the stage at some point. Cion spitted water and he threw the cap to the left side and it landed on 4th row far left fan, and threw the bottle to far right side and it landed on 2nd~3rd row. During the moment when the bottle was thrown, the gyas were busy headbanging and I really wanted to run to pick up the bottle ah... but I would be so stupid and rude to literally go across the floor to snatch it.
Throughout the whole live, Cion was blowing kisses, making pouting faces, and doing a circle with his thumb and index finger and looking out from it to the fans.
After the live, I happened to be the first to line up for chekis. I got their max 20 chekis and got two satsueikai tickets (#1 and 2). I didn’t want to be first but whatever since everyone already formed a huge line in back of me. I panicked a bit because my eye make up and eyebrows were all melted and covered in sweat, so I had to fix my make up while trying to trade chekis. I happened to be able to trade for 3-4 more Cion on top of my original 5 or so!!!
Satsueikai with Cion was last so I had time to finish make up, done with being nervous, and retouch on whatever I needed to. It was my last time seeing them on this trip so.... I was super nervous and sad. I was afraid I would forget to give Cion and Ryoya letters so I stuck it in my small purse with the purse opened. (Ah... Ryoya looked great today! I wish I was able to take a photo with him as well... oh well)
It was finally my turn and I walked in. I took a quick glance at Cion (barely), said hi softly, and then waited for the previous girl who took a photo with Kira or Kuu (I forgot who) to take her bags and leave. I just stared at the baggage chairs... till I can put my shit down. After she left, I put my baggage down and kind of just stood there. Cion was asked the camera man/manager if we can sit on the sofa or not and he said yes. Cion sat down and spread his legs and made a joke out of it with the manager. After that, he sat normally. LOL. I was still just standing there and Cion have to motion for me to come sit. I think I literally plopped down on the seat. A bit too close to him. Opps. For the first photo (with normal camera), he had his right hand on my shoulder and he said, "Let's do a kakkoi pose". I literally could not function like always so I just closed my eyes and did a peace sign. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO A KAKKOI POSE... and also, this may sound weird but I noticed he doesn't smell like he had perfume on, which was unexpected since I thought all pretty faced band guys would make sure they smell good. But yeah, Cion didn't smell feminine but just smelled like a normal man.
And then for the second photo (using the cheki camera), the manager was trying to turn on the camera but my cheki camera seemed to be super low in battery so it was not really turning on.......... omg........... next thing Cion did was “attempting to help”. HE LITERALLY KEPT SHUTTING AND TRYING TO TURN IT ON AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.... like I think he attempted to turn on my camera for more than 10 times with a 1-2 second time frame in between only..... like WOW...impatient man..... Well thank goodness at one point the camera finally lite up! The whole time I was thinking *please don't break and please work!!*
At first, he wanted to squat on the sofa as a pose but I stood up and and said, “tatte”. He stood up and then I requested to do a hug pose. Honestly I didn’t remembered what really happened, I think it was a somewhat tight hug... I remember my right boob was being crushed on him though so it was an off-centered tight hug. The camera man took forever to take the pic and we wobbled a little to the left and right, but that could also be due to Cion shifted a little so his face was more visible in the photo and I couldn't stand still after that. It felt kinda cute when we were wobbling. The picture came out so fucked up/funny but also so precious in many ways. His face though HAHAHAHAH!!! The only reasoning I can come out with is he ended up having this expression in his face when we were slightly wobbling so it was an “Ah! We are falling over!” face. And sucks that my head blended with the background ... I should have used my phone for this shot. And also it was funny of the height difference hahaha!!!! I never knew he was that much taller than me but it could be that he used the sofa as height support.
After that, I thanked them for the photo and I asked Cion to see nails since I noticed he didn't post a photo of his new nails. (I used the wrong word!!!! I said "misetai" instead of "mitai") anyways.... I guess he understood what I meant since I motioned for him to reach out his hand. He showed me his nails and I looked at them. Some fingers had green with silver long sparkles(?) and some were just solid red. I think he said he did them himself so he said something like it’s not good or something (?) and he pulled his hands back to hide it in embarrassment with a cute smile on his face! His embarrassed face is so adorable! Sadly, I didn’t look at his face that moment for more than a quick glance because I was so nervous. I told him today was my last live and I’m going back to America on 12/19. And he was like "ah... you won't go to the 12/21 live?" I said I couldn't go and I forgot what we said after that. I suddenly remembered to give him and Ryoya their letters when the manager was calling the next person to come in. I gave Ryoya’s letter to the manager to give it to Ryoya and then I gave Cion’s letter directly to Cion. He was like “Woah! ありがとう！” *SIGH* I could never get myself to look at him in the face or eyes for more than a second because he is too beautiful. Lastly, I said 来年またね！
Next up was Lindsey and she was already standing there waiting. As I was leaving, I told her that I’ll wait for her outside/or right at the door. And she replied ok! And manager and Cion was surprised she and I knew each other. Manager said, “tomodachi?” And Lindsey was like yes, through a friend. And they end up changing topics and manager bringing up his assumed mutual friends of us. After the mini talk they had they took their pics. And then said bye. I gave one big last wave to Cion and walked out.
Shortly after the live, Ryoya tweeted about the night and yay!!! I was glad the letter actually got to his hands! Regardless of if he could really read English or not, I hope he actually read my letter lol!
。（＞ω＜。）
Lindsay and I went to Saizeriya for a quick light dinner(it was more like a salty snack + dessert) before we parted ways and I headed for my night bus back to Tokyo.
（。＞ω＜）。
Ah!!! 3rd time Cion liked my tweets! Thank you!!! This will most likely be the last one for the meantime till I get to see them again and have legit things to tweet about..
