No, she wasn't angry, but she was talking and seemed unsure on how to proceed even though they had to move to the next performance, so she told everyone "Minna, chotto matte!" ("Wait for a bit, everyone!"), and then ran off of the stage. I think she either A: was so nervous she didn't know what was going to come up (unlikely, since it was the very last thing on the schedule and she did it again at the 2nd event) or B: she realized she had forgotten the lyrics before starting the song and wanted to quickly review them before singing it. So Keita was put on stage again, much to the amusement of the audience who started demanding he randomly pulled jokes, started singing or dancing, lol. None of which he actually did, though he did do a single dance move with his leg to which everyone clapped along with. Whatever she did before she came back to start the song however didn't help, since she mostly fumbled through the entire song staring at the floor. Went full on freak mode when it ended, saying stuff like "AH, yachatta! Yachatta na! Yabai Yabai! A-ase ga!" and "Mou, minna daisuki! Daisuki! I love you (In English)! I love you! Thank you! Arigatougozaimashita, honto ni! Yabai! Gomennasai! Mou, minna hitorizutsu ni ayamaritai!". Started blowing kisses and stuff, the entire audience was laughing at how incredibly weird she was acting and she was also shouting, "I'm not saying this to try and make up for it or anything, don't get me wrong!". For us it's not that big of a deal, but for an artist the feeling of fumbling through an entire song not knowing the lyrics in front of an audience must be embarrassing as hell, and maybe she was just trying to release her tension by saying and doing anything on her mind as if to distance herself from that awkwardness as quickly as possible. It's funny, because Tomoko and Sayuki said (during their Hello Shop talk event) Akari was not nervous at all before the Budoukan concert, so singing on her own must be completely different to her. She can be rather quiet or serious at normal press/talk events with the way she talks so it was good to see a completely childish Akari again throughout the two events, totally rediscovered what I love about her. Bought her a plush puppy as a gift and named it Hikari, it was very fluffy!

 

Ah, she did a line live people can check out right before the 2nd event btw: https://live.line.me...roadcast/464162

^ Ah I see, thanks for that. I guess she was really nervous and had a brain fart, poor girl but the audience got to see a new side to her so I guess that's a win lol

 

BTW she will continue her run on digitalbooks next month! It's pretty great to start the year with Uemu Like always, I'll provide weekly updates. 

If you're interested on subscribing, it's here.

Nice story. I didn't expect her Bday live will be like this As far as i know, she has (a little) calm personality especially when she performed with other members.

It's almost a week into the year but they've finally updated their digitalbooks site

[pastaman]

Thx for the pic, nice choice

 

Can't wait for the full set.....

And for that bday-event, maybe the pressure on the girls, always to function on-cam as idol, can sometimes be a bit heavy...

It's amazing, how they can do this work every day....

 

edit from a group-photo D-)

 

And a Line Live with her, embracing Haruna at 3:15

 

[cornyflakes]

The second set of pics have finally been unlocked, I don't know if they've changed dates to upload the pics or just being lazy

More pics of her in the enticing red two piece and a few pics of her in that outfit that looks like she has a skirt as her top

What does maimi say when she did the close-up on akari

What does maimi say when she did the close-up on akari

Uemura was trying to explain about her dress and Maimi noticed something else
Maimi said "sexy Uemura" while pointing the camera at Uemura's boobs

and for that Uemura will confiscate selfie stick from Maimi

[Kinjiru]

She was talking about the color of the outfit while pointing it (didn't say sexy uemura), I think it was kind of accidental lol. Then afterwards she says 'Sorry for the service shot~'. while Harunan says 'Because it's Aari'.

[I♥Sayumi]

She looks like she's gonna choke Maimi there for a sec. Akari is one of the few who can get away with it.

[Juriken'14(狩)]

when Maimi said "Look at the color (色がほら Iro ga hora)" while pointing at AariBoobs, the 色 iro ("color") became the iro(or shiki) in irropoi 色っぽい (sexy) , iroke 色気 (sex appeal), shikiyoku 色欲 (lust), etc  *cough*   so Zam is not "wrong" lol

knowing Maimi and her history with cameras, I'm totally not surprised she "accidentally" did something like that lol thumbs up to Haruna's hentai follow up

and the best part is Aari can't really complain

that video perfectly illustrate why I like the girls lol

[zam（仮）]

When Maimi is pointing the camera at Uemura's boobs and I hear Maimi say "iro" the last thing that I would think of is "color"
And the way Uemura reacted, I think she heard it the way I did too

[Satur]

 I like that color too.

[cornyflakes]

Checked their site today and saw that they uploaded the third set but not fully... 

Spoiler

Missing 2 pics from the set

[Danes83]

 

Well then, it seems everyone in hello!project knows about it (Aari's "Color") I think Maimi just teased her about it, also we should that Maimi is quite.. Same goes for Harunan (but Harunan seemed the victim of "No-Boobs" image)

[KawaiiLand]

LOL good job Maimi

[cornyflakes]

Akari's January digitalbooks set is up on the tracker! Though it seems they're missing 2 pics from vol.3 and vol.4 each...

Spoiler

https://www.hellopro....com/index.html

In the last set, it feels like the camera person and Aari seem to want to show off to us Akari's... Uemuus.... Not that I'm complaining though
