“STU48 2.5×3 Special LIVE” was started by STU48’s 2.5th, 3rd and 3rd year research students with the intention of pointing out the future of STU48. Their first performance in about 3 months since their first performance at BLUE LIVE HIROSHIMA in Hiroshima Prefecture in August was held today, December 7th (Saturday) as a live performance at the NMB48 Theater, the base of the sister group. .

“What kind of performance should STU48, who is both an idol and an artist, deliver right now?” This was a live performance in which all members created a set list while discussing the same question, and worked hard in lessons to express the charm of these songs to the fullest. It is.

Starting with a dance interlude and performing three songs in a row, Captain Azumi Okada greeted, “We’ve come to the NMB48 Theater from Setouchi.” There was a big cheer from the audience. In her self-introduction, which included her own appealing points so that NMB48 fans could easily remember her, Saki Sokawa said, “STU48’s 11th single “Horizon wo Miiteru?” released on January 15th. I’m Saki Sokawa from Yamaguchi Prefecture, who was selected for the first time and will serve as the center for the first time,” she said, proudly promoting the release of the CD. The members, who couldn’t help but be moved by the NMB48 Theater for the first time, said to the Kansai audience who had come to see STU48’s LIVE for the first time, “The songs will make you fall in love with STU48, and our cuteness will make you fall in love with them.” Please join us in this packed LIVE!” During the MC, Hibiki Hamada said, “It’s refreshing because STU48 doesn’t have a dedicated theater.As expected, I was envious of the NMB48 theater, which is a dedicated theater for performing live.”He was also very interested in the stage where there was an “auction”. Members of the group will talk about topics unique to Osaka in the corner. Ichigo Kitazawa, who won the Ogiri with the title of “If you want to go up in the auction, make the customers laugh,” held an Ogiri competition to win the right to go up to the auction, and said, “The scenery is different! But…I’m afraid of heights,” he said, drawing laughter.

Lastly, Okada said, “This summer we held this live show in Hiroshima, the Setouchi region where we are based.At that time, we received a very happy response from many people who said they would like to see us in Kanto or Kansai next time. Thanks to everyone’s kind words, today’s performance was made possible. Thank you. This time, we added NMB48’s songs to the previous set list, and I think we were able to power up the LIVE and deliver it to everyone. Oh, the call, the words and voice came through directly. , it’s the strength of our performance. Standing on stage and feeling the power of everyone’s calls and the members, we felt great about performing at Tokyo Garden next March! The 8th anniversary concert will be held at the theater. It will be Kina Hall. We are working hard to fill the venue with as many people as possible, so if you saw our performance today and want to see more or see us again, please come visit us again. Please come and see me. Thank you,” he concluded.

In the first part, they sang as loud as they could with the fans, making it the most exciting thing ever, and in the second part, it was a LIVE in which they expressed their determination and feelings to carry STU48 on their shoulders as members who will lead the next generation. Please look forward to the future performances of the members who will lead the next generation.
