I suspected it from the way Kino has spoken about PassCode; but she is saying it directly here.

10/31 The Day One of My Dreams Came True
November 3rd, 2021 11:25
Good evening, I'm Kino Yoshina!
Recently, I've been using Instagram's "Story" feature to send out my "diary".
The other day, October 31, I was so full of emotions that I couldn't fit it into a story, so I decided to write it in a note.
I wanted to write about how I felt that day, but I didn't know how to put it into words, so it took me this long to realize it.
There are so many things I want to write about that I can't even make sense of them, and even though I have a lot of text, I may not have written the important things I want to say properly. It's really difficult to verbalize emotions~!
I'm better at writing than speaking, so whenever I feel something or want to tell something, I just write it down in a note or story like this. I wondered if expressive artists should convey their emotions and what they want to say in live performances.
Just watching Nao's MCs and incitements during the songs, Kaede's overly skilled and flexible dancing, Hinako's stretchy voice, Emiri's soulful shouting, my emotions were shaken and I just couldn't stop watching.
I always write down my emotions in long words like this, but PassCode members put everything out on stage and conveyed everything on stage before leaving.
I've been an idol for four years now.
I've been an idol for four years now, but there are still many times when I get more nervous than enjoying the live performance, and I often feel depressed because I was too nervous or anxious today, or I didn't do well at all today.
On the other hand, I could feel that the PassCode members were really enjoying the performance.
It's like they're freely controlling their own bodies, or rather, they're acting, singing, and dancing as they want to. I'm not very good at dancing, and I'm always too busy doing the prescribed dances, so it was really cool to see her expressing herself freely and emotionally like that, and I envied her.
The day before the concert and on the day of the concert, Nao-san sent me a DM on Instagram and told me to have fun.
I was going to enjoy it as much as I could, but I was still a little nervous about such a big stage.
There was a moment in the middle of my nervousness when I was able to let go of everything for a moment, and it was during the part of DeadEnd called "I want you to listen carefully because I'm calling your name.
It's the part right before the second chorus, and I think it's the scene where all the sounds that have been playing until now become quiet. That's why I'm always more nervous than any other part I'm in charge of, but for some reason, I wasn't nervous on this day.
All the members except for me bent down low during this part. Everyone was squatting, and I was the only one standing.
I'm the one who's getting the most attention on this stage right now! At this moment, all the eyes of the audience are on me!
When I thought that, I suddenly felt as if the audience was expanding, and I could see them clearly, and I thought, "This is my moment! I thought.
At that moment, I felt like I could sing in a very relaxed way. At that moment, I didn't feel nervous or scared at all, and I felt like it was just me on stage now! That was the only feeling I had.
I can't really put it into words, but it was a completely different moment for me. It was like I was able to completely free myself.
I wondered if this was what Nao meant when she said, "Have fun with it.
I wondered if holding on to the feeling of that moment on that day and performing live would lead to "having fun" and produce a great stage.
When I saw PassCode's live performance, I realized how important it is to enjoy performing live, and how attractive the stage looks when people enjoy performing live.
From now on, I'll be more conscious of having fun when I perform.
It's not that I haven't been having fun up until now, not at all! I've been having fun doing it! Of course, ！！！！！ Of course, I had fun doing it!
I learned a lot from it.
At the MC, Nao said.
"We started as a small office on the second floor of an electronics factory in Sakai, so we couldn't do anything for you. I was really happy when Nao said something like, "We started out as a small office on the second floor of an electronics factory in Sakai, so we couldn't do anything for them, but the fact that they don't blame their circumstances and are working hard makes me want to support them because it overlaps with our past.
I was also really happy when she said, "Nao, you said that, but I have never felt unhappy about our situation. In fact, I think we've been blessed too much.
It's true that our office is small, with only two groups, PassCode and Kolokol, but I've never thought that we're unhappy because our office is small.
We didn't have any skills or the ability to attract customers at all, but we were allowed to perform at the big idol festival "Idol Alley" right after our debut, and we were able to perform consistently. I've always thought that everything PassCode has built up so far is working for us.
From the very beginning of our debut, we were completely borrowing PassCode's name as "a new group debuting from we-B studios belonging to PassCode" (laughs).
If we didn't have PassCode's name value, we wouldn't have been able to get so many people to know about Kolokol from the beginning, and we wouldn't have had the funds to produce music videos, costumes, and songs.
From the beginning, we've been helped by PassCode. That's why when Nao said "I can't do anything for you," I was shaking my head like an idiot in the second floor seats.
On the contrary, I really admire PassCode and the people at the office who have grown the group from nothing to the current scale. I'm really happy to be able to work under such proud seniors.
It's a small office, but I love this office, and I think there is no more important place than this.
I've always been shy, and I'm not very good at fitting into an organization because I like to be by myself.
I've had more than a few times when I was asked to pair up in pairs at school.
At my part-time job, I had a hard time fitting in, and while everyone else was chatting amicably, I was once chastised for folding too many paper cranes from a receipt (I was swearing in my heart that I'd rather be folding paper cranes than chattering).
I hadn't had a team or an organization that I thought was important in my life. I haven't had that kind of team or organization for a long time, so this office and Kolokol are the first important team for me.
It's more important than anything else, and I'm ready to bury my bones here.
The other day, someone asked me, "The stage decorations for your one-man live in Yokohama were amazing. Didn't you make almost no profit? I asked P-san.
The answer came back with a shocking figure: "We decided not to make a profit on the one-man show because we value the satisfaction of the audience.
I was so impressed. I was really impressed. Pursuing customer satisfaction rather than profit is not easy for a large company, but for a company of our size, it is quite difficult. ......
The president who allows us to do so, Mr. P who guides us with his mind, Niishirango who creates divine songs every time, Hiraji who always praises us saying "Koro-chan is really the best", PassCode who is the coolest senior, and the members of Koro-chans. I love you all and I'm proud of our team.
I'm really honored that they accepted us, who are still inexperienced, as their juniors and allowed us to perform together as OA.
I know it's not my place to say this, but as a group from the same agency, I'd like to run up the ladder with them, and one day I'd like to stand in the same ring with them.
And to the fans who saw us that day.
I was really nervous because it was the first time for me to perform with my seniors, but they welcomed me with applause from the moment I entered the venue. I was very happy to see him respond to my "Please raise your hands!
As Nao said, PassCode's fans were very warm and made me feel happy ^. ^.
There may have been some people who said they wanted to see more of PassCode during the OA, or wanted to see a live performance of only PassCode, but I was happy that they welcomed me warmly. Thank you very much.
I'd also like to thank the fans of Kolokol who came to the live for the short time of OA and without any special event. I could see you waving your psylliums at me! It was very encouraging. Thank you very, very much. I love you so much.
Yesterday was an unforgettable day for me. Thank you so much!
There are more shows in Nagoya and Tokyo, so please come to those too!
＿＿＿＿＿＿
You don't have to read this from an otaku point of view ^_^.
Emiri joined as a new member 、、、、、、 and she was really cool, wasn't she? A girl with such a slender body and cute face gave such a cool shout... it was really amazing .........
In the event that you have any questions regarding where and the best way to get in touch with us, please feel free to contact us.
He shouted "whistle" in Taking you out. I was so cool that I was shaking...
I shivered. The way he shouted with his legs on the stand(?) was also too cool. Wow~！！！！ I'm sorry...
I'm not sure what to make of this. "I'm not sure what to make of it. You can hear Kaede's shout too.
Also, Hinako-san's ！！！！ in the A melody. I really like it. Throughout all the music videos, I like the "again" part of the A melody of this song the best. The part where she fusses with her beautiful hair. I've seen that scene 500 million times.
I couldn't see it on this tour because she was wearing her hair tied up, but I'd like to see it in person once. ............
The new song "Freely" was also really cool! I saw the music video as soon as it was released, and it was on the roof of a building from the very beginning: ！！！！ It's so cool! The rooftop of the building tickles my fancy ...............
I've been saying to P. that I want to shoot a music video on the roof of a building since my debut, but it's not easy to make it happen, so PassCode is nice... (laughs)
(laughs) Hinako's fast-paced singing and Emiri's shouting in the A melody was great right from the start!
I really like Kaede's "Burn! Burn! Burn!" and also the "Hi! Burn!
Burn!" by Kaede is my favorite, as is the "Hi!" at the end. I also really like the melody of "Mocking Evil" by Nao. It's like a minor key...? It's flat...? I like that kind of melody. I love that kind of melody. I don't know much about music at all, so if you're an intellectual, you're probably wondering what I'm talking about, but please take it with a grain of salt (I got about a 15 on my music test).
Also, I'm a fan of Nayoi from Rokkoro, who appears in the second verse of the song "Break down that wall. The more I listen to it, the more addictive it becomes.
The more I listen to this song, the more addictive it becomes, and I've been listening to it forever lately.
The other new song, FLAVOR OF BLUE, was also very good....
I think everyone likes it here.
The sutra-like part of the song: ！！！！
It's going to be hard to remember that part...
I'm not sure what to make of this.
I was also happy to hear "Future's near by". ...............
When I told Mr. Hiraji that I was so excited to hear Future's near by, he was surprised to hear that I knew Future's near by. I was surprised.
(laughs) I know it and I like it very much ^_^.
I didn't tell the people at the office too much because I thought I might not get an audition if I said too much, but I've been going to PassCode's live performances since before I became an idol, so I'm pretty familiar with their music ^_^.
I think I got to know PassCode through a magazine called IDOL AND READ.
I first got into idols through Momoiro Clover. After that, I started to be interested in various idols and fell in love with Denpa-gumi.inc.
When I was reading an interview book called IDOL AND READ, which featured Nemu Yumemi of Denpa-gumi.inc, I noticed Ano from the group Yurumermo! of the group Yurumaru Mo!
Meeting Ano-san was just so shocking that I couldn't forget about her even after I went to sleep and woke up, I really like her! She's so cute! I want to meet her! I really like her! I want to meet her!" And that's when I did my first "going to see an idol.
Momoiro Clover and Denpagumi.inc were both big idols, so I thought they were like celebrities you see on TV, that you'd never get to meet. So, although I liked them, I only cheered for them on screen or in print. It's not someone I can go see. That's what I've always thought.
On the other hand, YuruMuruMo was positioned as an underground idol at the time, so it was relatively easy to go see them. When I found out that they were performing in Osaka, I decided to go see them for the first time.
From then on, I fell in love with underground idols and went to various concerts. I'm sure I must have met some of the fans somewhere along the way.
IDOL AND READ is the book that gave me the turning point in my life, so I've been buying and reading every new issue since then.
And then I got to know Nao Minami through IDOL AND READ issue 06, and I was like, "She's so cute ！！！！" again. (laughs).
That's when I started going to PassCode's live performances. I started going to PassCode's live performances after that. I liked their music, and they sometimes played with Yurumuru-mo, so I had many chances to see them.
It's a dream come true that I'm appearing in OA as a junior member of PassCode, the band I used to go see live like that. I'm glad I had the courage to audition at that time.
I'm glad I had the courage to audition at that time. I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but I think it's a good idea. It's a black hair bob. I'm not sure if I like it or not. It's a bob.
I've thought about getting a bob myself about 500 million times, but I haven't done it yet.
Many of Kanagi's fans are long haired, so 、、、、
If you do decide to go for a bob, please don't hate me. ！！！！
This is a reminder of my feelings on October 31, though it got really long and I'm not sure what I wanted to say in the end.
To we-B studios, to Kolokol
It was a day that deepened my resolve to bury my bones in we-B studios and Kolokol.
So long! Good night!
