Erika Ikuta’s “Jonetsu Tairiku”, which was broadcast on October 20, 2024, has been decided to be turned into a video product.
After graduating from Nogizaka46, Erika Ikuta continues to be active as an actor and in music activities. A documentary that takes a closer look at her true face as she takes on new challenges, including her first lead role in a drama series and a nationwide tour as a solo artist who took on the challenge of songwriting. Despite the walls he hits on the set and the conflicts that make him unable to shed tears, he still has a strong will to move forward.
“I don’t want to be half-hearted.” His determination and growth are depicted through his delicate acting and sincere attitude toward music.
In order to commercialize this video, we added valuable unreleased footage that could not be conveyed in the broadcast and created an enlarged version of approximately 70 minutes, including bonus footage. The bonus video also includes a production documentary of “Symphony”, which was premiered at Pacifico Yokohama National Hall on Friday, September 20, 2024!
Also included is a gorgeous 24-page booklet containing a director’s diary, passion quotes, and a collection of hide-and-seek MV off-shots.
