Future Diary "The Live World": Part 2!
(TW: grainy images galore!)
Originally, I was expecting my first post on this topic to be the only one, but I've come across some more interesting content related to this event. More specifically, I've found 9 blog posts about the Future Diary concert from the artists who performed at the event! These artists include the voice actors from the show, Faylan, ChouCho, Nirgilis, and even Future Diary's screenwriter. These blog posts range all the way from details about the concert, to the making of 12th's costume.
Because of how much information and pictures this update will contain, I'll divide it into two parts: this post, which will include the blogs from Yukki's VA, Minene's VA, Faylan and ChouCho (these last two are singers btw), while the next post will focus on the making of 12th's costume, including blogs from 12th's VA and the screenwriter of Future Diary (who was comissioned to make part of the costume).
More information + translations under the cut.
First off, I want to add that there might be more blog posts about this event on different websites and accounts. It's hard to guess how many since most of the older Japanese blog sites are defunct now, meaning I'd need the direct link of the blog to view it on the Wayback Machine. In fact, there is one blog post that I can't add here because it wasn't archived on the Wayback Machine, and it's by Yuno's voice actress: Tomosa Murata. The blog itself is archived, but the entry about the concert is not.
With that out of the way, let's get to the posts that we do have. To start off, we have an Ameba post by Misuzu Togashi, Yukiteru's VA, which reads as follows:
Whenever I thought of this event, I always saw it as a distant future, yet it came so suddenly and ended so quickly… that must be proof of how much I enjoyed it. I want to thank everyone involved in the event from the bottom of my heart: the performers, staff, and above all, everyone who came to the venue and helped create such a great event. Seriously, thank you all! Here’s a little summary of how it all went down…
They brought in so many flowers!! Look, there’s even a flower Yukki! I was so surprised when I saw it!!!!! (@ ̄□ ̄@;)!! I loved it~♪ We even received flowers in the dressing room, I’m so grateful for it (sobs).
This is me with Rokugen Alice ((^∇^)) She was so wonderful!! And her basket skirt is so cute ~(;´д`)
(From left to right) This is Faylan, me, Tomosa-chan and ChouCho. We talked a lot with ChouCho and Faylan in the dressing room, it was so much fun ♪ I was super excited!!!!!!
This is what it means to have a flower in both hands!! Sorry, bad joke…
This is Minene (Aizawa Mai), Yukiteru (me) and Yuno (Murata Tomosa). Come to think of it, this is the same line-up as the poster, isn’t it? ♪
And as always, we have to talk about this guy!!
\(◎)ゞ< Twii!!
<(◎)>< What’s the matter m’lady… don’t I look amazing?? He did it!!
Real 12th balls. (Note: These balls were signed by the cast and thrown to the audience at the end of the concert.)
I am not a loser…
I’m anything but!! 12th was certainly the idol of Future Diary!! Thank you for making it so fun!!!
Here’s the cast all together! Kawahara-san (12th), Shiraishi-san (Kousaka), Aizawa-san (9th), Tomosa-chan (2nd) and me!! Thank you for all the help!!!!!
Thanks for coming to support me ☆~°・(ノД`)・°・
I was also able to invite both of my parents this time… I can’t thank them enough for all of their support. All the artists and staff made a wonderful performance, it was so exciting!! I wanted to join the crowd and sing along with them!! I couldn’t take photos of the stage, but the set looked like the Cathedral of Casualty!! It was one surprise after another since we entered the dressing room…
I also felt both like myself and Yukiteru during the concert. I’ve always been easily influenced by the roles I play, but this time, it felt like I was having fun together with Yukiteru all throughout the show…
This was Tomosa-chan’s first concert, yet she did so well!! Thanks, Yuno, I had so much fun!!!!!
It’s oveeeeeeer. It’s oveeeeeeer. I can’t believe it’s oveeeeeeer!! °・(ノД`)・°・
To end this… once again, thanks so much, everyone!!! I hope you keep loving Future Diary for a long time to come!! I wanna do a concert again!!!
Thank you for reading this far. I’m really satisfied with all the photos I took. I hope to see everyone again, after all…
We haven’t gone to see the stars yet, have we? So, let’s meet again in the future ♪ヽ(´▽`)/
Next up, we have the following post from Aizawa Mai (Minene's VA):
This has become an unforgettable day for me. To everyone who came to the event… I could see all of your faces, for the first time, I could see the faces of everyone who loves Future Diary.
“Nice to meet you, do I look like Minene?”
It’s very scary to stand on a stage carrying the weight of a character so beloved like Minene, especially since I’ll never actually be Minene. I didn’t want to disappoint anyone, so I sang with all my heart. On the way home, I received so many nice comments on Twitter; I was so happy it brought me to tears. My followers always make me cry. Thank you, guys.
I wonder, how many times will Future Diary travel around the world? I’ll follow it wherever it goes. Also, look who I found walking through the dressing room ↓
The costume is so cool (lol)
My dream of meeting OLDCODEX also came true! ↓
Oh dear…(lol)
Their performance was amazing.
And now for the cast ↓
They really helped me calm my nerves.
And…
My favorite people also came to watch ↓↓
My treasures ↑
That’s right, these are my favorite people. And the people who love me for who I am.
There’s no one who can replace people this precious.
At the end of the event, Minene said the following:
“You are now Minene-sama’s hostages for the rest of your lives!!”
If you keep being Minene’s hostages forever… that would make me happy (to put it mildly).
Now, we have the following Ameba post by Faylan (the singer for the second OP, first ED and HAPPY END theme):
It’s over…
I’m so sad that it’s over…
・°・(ノД`)・°・
The long-awaited Future Diary “The Live World” ended today! Ahhh!
Thanks to all the people who came!
I was so happy to meet the voice actors for Future Diary, it was really exciting!
I also got acquainted with all the band members, which made me feel much more carefree throughout the concert ☆
Either way, I had a lot of fun~
Here are a few photos of the concert…
This is what my costume looked like ☆
And and ~
Here are Misuzu Togashi-san, who plays Amano Yukiteru, and Tomosa Murata-san, who plays Gasai Yuno ☆ Plus ChouCho-san.
Yukki!!!!
Yuno!!!!
I’m so happy to have met these people who I admire so much, I talked to them a lot ~☆
I was so excited!! Haha ε=ε=ε= ヾ(~▽~)ノ
And I’m so grateful for everyone who came!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!
I got to sing the encore we made for the concert called “HAPPY END!”
The background video we used was also made specifically for the concert! It was so touching ☆
Imagine a Future Diary… what-if! A what-if! I’m just hoping they make another installment (but that’s my own selfish wish…). I wish I could be a part of it again… I know it would make me so happy.
That’s how much I love this series ☆
I’m sad that the concert is over now, but…
I promise I’ll try my hardest to get involved in more projects like this lol.
I’ll try my hardest!!!
Lastly, here’s a photo of my fellow Fay’s ☆
Thank you for all your hard work (`・ω・´)ゞ
An interesting piece of information from this post was that the HAPPY END theme was made specifically for the concert, and first unveiled here as well, similarly to how the third OP was also unveiled at this event.
Next up is the following Ameba post by ChouCho (the singer for the 7th's theme and Yuno's second theme):
On Sunday, I performed at the “Future Diary The Live World” concert at Shibuya-AX.
I sang “7th Heaven” and “Happy Fate”.
It was my first time singing both of these songs live, so I was really nervous (@Д@;
But I’m glad that the audience was so kind.
I wore black to match the image of Future Diary ♪
The blouse is from Jill Stuart and the skirt is from LANVIN en Bleu.
After the show, I took photos with Faylan-san, Yukki’s VA, Misuzu Togashi-san, and Yuno’s VA, Tomosa Murata-san!
!!!
I was shocked when he walked into the dressing room ( ゚ ▽ ゚ ;)
I’ll also be performing tomorrow at an event in Nagoya! I’ll be performing some new songs live, so I’ll try to do my best o(^▽^)o
There are three other blog posts which are worth including, but I'm not going to translate them since they don't share any insights into the concert, rather basic event details (performing artists, conditions for the ticket sales, etc.). These posts are from Minoru Shiraishi (Kousaka's VA) , Nirgilis (the band that performed MurMur's theme) and a second post by ChouCho.
Stay tuned for part 3 :DD
