On September 5th (Sat.), DIANNA☆SWEET held their third solo concert ~Croissance~ at Shibuya WWW.
9月5日（土）渋谷WWWにて、DIANNA☆SWEET ３rd ワンマンライブ〜Croissance〜が行われた。

At their previous solo concert ~Renatus~ it was revealed that Momoka Okamoto had joined and that the group would also be welcoming @JAM General Producer Keiichi Hashimoto as their concert producer. Much like the concert’s name sake, Renatus, meaning to be born again, the curtain rose for a new incarnation of DIANNA☆SWEET.
前回のワンマンライブ〜Renatus〜では、岡本桃花の加入、ライブプロデューサーに＠JAM総合プロデューサー橋元恵一氏を迎えることなどが発表され、まさに「Renutus=新生」のタイトルどおりの、新たなDIANNA☆SWEETの幕開けとなるライブだった。

Five months later, the group had the experience of participating in various events at TIF2015, and to show how far they’d come, held their most recent concert Croissance, meaning growth.
それから5ヶ月、TIF2015、@JAM EXPOなど様々なイベントを経験した、DIANNA☆SWEETの進化を見せる舞台となるのが、「Croissance＝成長」とタイトルが付けられた、今回のライブである。

To start off with they performed “FIRE GIRL” off of their first single, and their performance of “SPIDER LOVE” really showed off their newfound maturity and member appeal. “BE CRAZY” also showed us how much they had grown compared to before, and it felt as if the love song had blown-up into something life-sized.
まずは最新シングル「FIRE GIRL」を披露し、前回のワンマンで披露した「SPIDER LOVE」からさらにぐっと大人っぽさを増したメンバーの魅力を見せつける。「BE CRAZY」「会いたいよ」など以前は背伸びしたメンバーの魅力を見せていた曲が、すっかり等身大の恋心を歌うラブソングになっている。

It was the first time they had performed “LUCIFER” in a long time, and both Julia Moe and Azumi Suzuki brought a certain appeal that seemed more grown-up than junior high school, and with Momoka Okamoto who works as a model with them, you wouldn’t have thought they were merely high school students. It really felt like DIANNA☆SWEET had become a group armed with their own weapon of sexiness.
久々に披露した「LUCIFER」では、ジュリア萌、鈴木杏実、という、中学生ながら大人の魅力を見せてきた二人に加えて、岡本桃香という、モデルとして活躍してもおかしくないスタイルと高校生とは思えない色気を持つメンバーが加わることで、今のDIANNA☆SWEETが、セクシーさを武器に戦えるグループであることを改めて感じさせた。

When they sang “DEEP SNOW”, Fuka Nagayama and Mana Wakaba both took the stage and brought us a performance like I could have never imagined from two girls so petite, and it there was no doubt that they had grown-up. Numbers like “DEEP SNOW”, “Please Stop Loveing You”, “Hug you Hug me”, and “Fight!” filled out their repertoire, and after their jam-packed set list, they had the energy to continue on with their usual cover song corner.
「DEEP SNOW」の曲に乗せ、永山風花と若葉愛の２人で見せたダンスパフォーマンスも、小柄な二人から想像もつかない、まさに「成長」を思わせるステージだった。「DEEP SNOW」「Please Stop Loveing You」「Hug you Hug me」「Fight!」と彼女たちの楽曲の層の厚さを感じさせながら畳み掛けたセットリストの後には、すっかり恒例となりつつあるカバー曲コーナーを披露。

Their sister groups DIANNA A and PREDIANNA covered the songs “The twin tail!” and “Let me alone” respectively, while DIANNA M sang a cover of Apink’s “NoNoNo”, and then Fuka Nagayama, Julia Moe, Azumi Suzuki, and Momoka Okamoto performed a special, first-time surprise by covering “Kizuitara Kataomoi” by Nogizaka 46, with Mana Wakaba covering the old-school anime song “Majoukko Meg” at the end. It was unbelievable how fired up the audience got over the cover song set list.
姉妹グループのDIANNA Aの「The twin tail!」、PREDIANNAの「Let me alone」をカバー、そしてDIANNA MによるApinkの「NoNoNo」のカバーを歌い、今回初披露のサプライズとして、永山風花、ジュリア萌、鈴木杏実、岡本桃花による乃木坂46「気づいたら片思い」を、そしてなんと最後は若葉愛が往年のアニメソング「魔女っ子メグちゃん」をカバー。想像もしなかったカバーセットリストに開場も盛り上がる。

They performed a number of typical idol song, cute numbers like “Cherie!”, “Hatsukoi Revolution”, “Kimi wa Dare Oshi?! Hakujou shi China!!” followed by cooler songs that have come to symbolize the group like “ICE CREAM MAGIC” and “SPIDER LOVE”. DIANNA☆SWEET showed us charm point after charm point throughout their solo concert, getting closer to perfection little by little, with Croissance or growth that everyone could see.

「Cherie!」「初恋Revolution」「キミは誰推し?!白状しチャイナ!!」とアイドルソングの王道を行くかわいい楽曲を披露した直後に「ICE CREAM MAGIC」「SPIDER LOVE」とDIANNA☆SWEETを象徴するクールな曲を披露。ワンマンライブの中で、今のDIANNA☆SWEETの持つ魅力が、次々と惜しみなく披露され、その完成度がひとつひとつ高まっていることに、まさにCroissance＝成長を感じた。

During their MC, each of the members read a letter they had written to their fans. Fuka Nagayama wrote and recited tearfully, “It’s taken longer than expected for DIANNA☆SWEET to walk our path, but as leader I am responsible. Also as leader, I want more people to get to know DIANNA☆SWEET.” Many fans also shed a few tears, and they showered her with applause to honor her efforts and sense of responsibility. Then Azumi Suzuki revealed that they had big plans for “the five of us to someday stand on the stage at Budokan”, and the venue broke out in warm applause as if to give them a boost.
MCではメンバーひとりひとりから手紙に書いたファンへのメッセージを読み上げる。永山風花の「DIANNA☆SWEETの歩みが、みなさんが期待するより遅くなってしまっているのは、リーダーであるわたしの責任。今後はリーダーとして、DIANNA☆SWEETをもっと多くの人に知ってもらえるグループにしたい」と涙ながらに語ると、多くのファンも涙を流しながら、彼女の責任感と努力を称える大きな拍手を送った。そして鈴木杏実が「この５人で武道館に立ちたい」と大きな目標を表明すると、それを後押しするかのような暖かい拍手に会場は包まれた。

The members, full of gratitude toward their fans, began singing “Always”. They sang each line of the lyrics clearly and precisely, and again tears were in the eyes of the fans gathered there as they watched the girls sing their hearts out, with the audience singing out “atatakai sono manazashi” (“how warm your gaze is”) to the five members in response.
そんなファンへの感謝の気持を込めた曲として「Always」を歌い上げるメンバー。歌詞の一つ一つを丁寧に、ファンへの思いを込めながら歌う姿に、会場のファンは涙を目に溜めながら、歌詞に歌われている「暖かいそのまなざし」を５人へと向けていた。

For their encore they did “GO AHEAD” and “Koi wa Fusion!” and then it was time for the curtains to fall. The concert reached such a high level of success that during the after sales following the concert, they completely sold out of tickets to the group’s special event, really going to show just how fired up the seemed to be.
アンコールでは「GO AHEAD」「恋はFusion!」を披露し、今回のライブの幕を閉じた。その後の物販、特典会では特典券が売り切れるほどの盛況ぶりで今回のライブの完成度の高さ、ファンの盛り上がりを象徴しているようだった。

With DIANNA☆SWEET welcoming a new sense of maturity as part of their growth, we’re looking forward to their next appearance.
成長を遂げ、アイドルグループとして良い成熟を迎えてきたDIANNA☆SWEETの次の展開が、期待される。
