This film opens with a short documentary that depicts the path to the arena performance, attracting 10,000 people. The small, burning fire began to burn at a Shibuya underground club attracted many people, and after cross-border collaboration with friends, the Arena Stage finally reached the site. By fully recording the drama behind the scenes and the main performance that lasts approximately two hours, Tohji is said to be able to experience all the footprints he has accumulated.

Furthermore, at the end of this performance, a special screening of short films, produced with the idea that “If you’re going to do something in the cinema, why not make something?” It is said to be a work that presents new possibilities for music and visual expression.

The excitement of the arena performance has been reconstructed with dynamic sound using 5.1ch surround sound, and the power and excitement of the day are fully reproduced at the cinema. The main live performance also incorporates song arrangements that were prepared specifically for the performance, allowing you to experience an immersive feeling of story through the live performance.

We also propose innovative ways to enjoy musical films that are different from traditional “movies that you can watch quietly.” By cheering and taking photos as if they were at a live venue, the audience was the main focus and they provided a new viewing experience in which the film was integrated into the film.

Advance tickets are currently being accepted for advance lottery tickets. In addition, some theaters will also be holding a stage greeting event in which guest artists and staff, including Tohji himself, will be taking part in the stage. Details will be announced on the official website.
