live report - 18.07.2009 01:01

An Cafe performed their first ever Brazilian concert in São Paulo as part of their second world tour, NYAPPY GO AROUND THE WORLD II

On April 4th, An Cafe arrived in São Paulo for their first ever Brazilian concert, as part of their second world tour. Many fans had gathered in the front of the live house in a long line since earlier that day, waiting to get the best spot for this long-awaited performance.

The concert started a few minutes after the scheduled time. The members of An Cafe appeared on the dark stage accompanied by the SE, waving and blowing kisses to the fans before taking their positions on stage. Teruki came first, followed by Yu-ki, kanon, takuya and finally Miku. Right after this, with Miku screaming: “Are you ready, São Paulo?” the band started the show with Cherry Saku Yuuki!!, where the vocalist danced and let the fans sing some parts of the song. Moving on with the same energy, the band played Tekesuta Kousen and the audience followed Miku’s choreography. The fans screamed and waved their arms until the last beats from Teruki’s drums ended the song.

Then, the group started the first MC of the night. Miku greeted the fans, asking how they were and telling them: “I’m very nyappy!”, making the fans scream even more. An Cafe went on with Kawaiyu’s ЯocК and the members changed places while running around the stage so they could interact more with the audience. One by one, takuya and kanon played their instruments at the center of the stage and Miku finished the song with a harsh scream.

Under red and white lights, the band kicked off SUMMER DIVE, followed by the jazzy ZETSUBOU, during which Miku got down on his knees, staying very close to the fans in the front rows. Then, the band played the first ballad of the night, Orange Dream, which started with Yu-ki’s calm keyboards notes and was accompanied by the audience moving their arms from side to side.

During -Et Cetera-, the traditional song that introduces each of the members, the audience screamed their names in turn. The band then went into NYAPPY in the world 4, during which Yu-ki took a microphone and came down from his platform to sing and dance along with Miku.

Right after the song, the band introduced themselves and each member spoke a few words in Portuguese, starting with Teruki. After each one thanked the audience, Miku asked: "Do you want more?". The fans screamed and An Cafe went on with the well-known song Duck no Magical Adventure. Miku pulled out a Donald Duck puppet while kanon and takuya ran to each others' side across the stage. During the song, grabbed a Brazilian t-shirt and asked the fans: "Brazil, do you like Donald?" Walking around the stage accompanied by loud screams from the audience, the vocalist span the t-shirt above his head and threw it to the crowd. Then, Miku took a little hammer and asked the audience: “Do you like Brazilian boys or the An Cafe boys?” making the fans yell the band’s name as loud as possible.

The next song was AROMA, their most recent single, which has a more obscure sound than what An Cafe fans are used to - an exception, since the members state that An Cafe will always be a bright band. During the song, Miku danced and ran from side to side, while kanon and takuya played in the middle of th stage. In MY ♥ LEAPS FOR "C", the guitarist and the bassist came together to play once again in the center of the stage, while the crowd sang along with the vocalist.

Miku then addressed the audience: “Last song! Show me your power!”. The fans started jumping and the band began to play Snow Scene. During the song, both the fans and the members seemed to be giving their all. Teruki smiled while he beat his drums, Yu-ki jumped on the platform in front of him, kanon and takuya moved energetically around the stage, and Miku sang with all his power. As the song finished, the vocalist thanked the audience in Portuguese and the band quickly left the stage.

It didn't take too long until the fans started to scream the band’s name, asking for an encore and throwing their glow sticks on the stage. After a while, the members came back wearing official tour T-shirts. Under the loud screams from the crowd, Miku asked: “Do you want more?” before they dove into BondS ~Kizuna~. kanon and takuya continued to switch places and later performed alongside Miku. The vocalist spat water at the audience, poured the rest of it on his own head and threw the bottle to the crowd.

As the song ended, Miku told the audience: “I want to see your special smile” before starting Smile ichiban ii ♀, the song that marked the end of the concert. The fans sang along while Miku jumped on the stage. He then thanked the crowd as takuya played his guitar solo at the center of the stage. In the end, the members got together close to the first rows to throw drum sticks and picks while each one waved their hands to the audience. Miku thanked the fans once again and promised to come back soon. The band took a photograph, with the crowd as the background, and left the stage under the screams of the fans, who certainly won’t forget this event any time soon.
