Unite into One! A New and Improved palet Kicks off their Live Tour All for One

On August 23, 2015, palet gave their first performance of their SUMMER LIVE TOUR 2015 ~All for One~ at Shin-Yokohama’s NEW SIDE BEACH. Following their Tomei Osaka tour last summer, this year’s tour, which spans seven cities, is their first nationwide one. Additionally, their Shin-Yokohama concert was the group’s first performance and first one-man concert with their new line-up since new member Mayu Watanabe joined.

2015年8月23日、新横浜NEW SIDE BEACHにてpalet「SUMMER LIVE TOUR 2015~All for One~」の初日公演が行われた。全国7都市を巡る今回のツアーは、昨年夏の東名阪ツアーを経て初の全国ツアーとなる。また、初日の新横浜公演は新メンバー渡邊真由が加入して以降、新生palet初の単独ライブでもあった。

The NEW SIDE BEACH live house, situated next to Yokohama Arena, was chosen as the girls’ new starting point. The word “live house” might not be familiar to some overseas fans, but it serves not only as a place where concerts (or a “live”, in Japanese) are held, but where there’s not as much distance between the audience, and is type of space that’s unrefined in a good way. There are no screens or flashy production equipment, and an artist’s set is only made up of their performance and the energy from the crowd, and as the show goes on, the air is thick and dense with emotions running high. That might be why the momentum of the performance the girls displayed is being posed as being faithful to what it means to hold a real “live”.

彼女たちの新たな出発地点となったのは、横浜アリーナに併設されるライブハウス「NEW SIDE BEACH」。海外の方には馴染みのない言葉かもしれないが、ライブハウスとはまさに「ライブ」を行うためにつくられた場所であり、観客との距離感が近く、良い意味で荒削りな空間である。映像を映すスクリーンや派手な演出機材は無く、演者のパフォーマンスと会場の熱気だけがステージをつくり上げ、凝縮された密度の濃い時間が流れる。だからこそ、彼女たちのパフォーマンスの勢いが、そのままライブの真価として問われるような会場でもあった。

The level of performance they achieved was such perfection it would be impossible to grade it. It’s only been around a month since the group officially began as a six-member act. While each member played on their own individual strengths, the power they achieved as they united all of their strengths together is symbolic of their tour title, All for One. Though they played both regular songs and new songs during the first part of the concert, they also turned away from the past with performances of numbers like “Arigatou” and “Time to Change”, showing their determination to march positively towards the future. I felt a pang in my heart and was left speechless at the members’ expressions, displaying emotional performance skills that could rival any seasoned actress, yet overlapped with the real feelings of each member.

そして、そのパフォーマンスの仕上がりは点数が付けられないほど充実したものだった。6人体制として正式にスタートしてからわずか約1ヶ月。メンバー個人の力をそれぞれが引き出し合いながら、グループ全体の結束力としてまとめ上げる力強さは、まさにツアータイトルの「All for One」を象徴していた。
第一部ではライブ定番曲を新旧織り交ぜながら、「ありがとう」「Time to Change」など、過去を振り返りながらも前向きに進む決意を歌った感傷的な曲も披露。そのメンバーの表情は、女優のように演じる感情表現のスキルと、一人の女の子としてのリアルな感情の表出が重なって、なんとも言えない、心にグッとくるものであった。

Additionally during the first half, they debuted the coupling song “Koi suru Wink” to their new single, “All for One”. In this song with palet’s characteristically cute melodies mixed with casual guitar rock, member Miyuki Hiraguchi was responsible for all of the choreography. The members appeared in their Keep Lovin’ You costumes for the encore with a red costume especially made for new member Mayu Watanabe, a visual welcome to her as palet’s newest member.

また、一部ではニューシングル「All for One」のカップリング曲「恋するウィンク」も初披露。軽快なギターロックに超絶かわいいメロディーが特徴的なpaletらしいこの曲では、なんとメンバーの平口みゆきがフルで振り付けを担当したとのこと。アンコールではKeep on Lovin’ Youの衣装で登場し、新メンバー渡邊真由も赤の衣装が新調されたことで、paletメンバーとして迎え入れられたことが改めて視覚化された。

During the second part was a birthday party for Yumi Nakano, who had celebrated her birthday on August 4th. While the group had held a birthday party for her last year, she was unable to attend due to poor health, making this one her first birthday performance since joining the group and fulfilling a long awaited wish.

第二部では8月4日に誕生日を迎えた中野佑美の生誕祭が開催された。昨年も同様に生誕祭が開催されたものの、体調不良により中野は自身がパフォーマンスに参加することができず、今回がpalet加入後初の生誕パフォーマンスとなり、ようやく念願を叶える事ができた。

With shouts of “Yuyu-chan” during the encore, Nakano re-appeared on the stage by herself. It was the second time since their third year anniversary one-man, and for her second song she enthusiastically performed the self-composed track “Mirai Dokei”. After her song, asked about her goals since turning 17 during an MC, she said, “I want to improve my skills so I can clear the goals I’ve set for myself, and I want to give you all even better songs.” Her stoic attitude towards singing seems to have inspired the other members, and it really gave the impression that palet’s quality as a whole has gone up. For the last song of the concert, “Believe in Yourself!”, green glow sticks representing Nakano’s color filled the venue, and with the song’s presence really capturing and representing palet’s progressive state.

アンコールで「ゆゆちゃん」コールが巻き起こると、中野は一人でステージに登場。3周年ワンマン以来2回目、そして2曲目となる自身作曲のソロ楽曲「未来時計」を熱唱した。歌唱後、中野はその後のMCで17歳の目標を聞かれると「自分が立てた目標を確実にクリアできるようにスキルアップして、みなさんにより良い歌を届けたい」と語った。歌う事に対しストイックである彼女の姿勢は、他のメンバーも刺激し、palet全体のクオリティが上がっている事を感じる事ができる。初日ラストの曲となった「Believe in Yourself!」では中野のカラーである緑色のサイリウムで会場が埋め尽くされ、常に現在進行形のpaletを表現するこの楽曲の存在感を改めて実感することができた。

Overall, the group displayed a high degree of perfection this first day. The sense of unity between the members and the stage they created with their one focus was felt by all, and in addition to the relaxed performance by former captain Yui Fujimoto, it created a warm atmosphere between the stage and fans, which filled the venue. Indeed, by mixing all six colors in their palette, they’re painting with an entirely new shade, and they’ve gotten off to a great start. Their nationwide, seven-city tour has just begun. It looks like with each performance, the group will continue to evolve. We can’t help but look forward to how the group matures during this tour.

とにかく、完成度の高い初日であった。メンバーの一体感、ステージを全員で作り上げるための目線の統一が感じられ、さらに前キャプテンの藤本結衣の伸びやかなパフォーマンスが、ステージと客席を常に適切な温度感で結びつけて会場の雰囲気を生み出していく。まさに、6色の絵の具がパレットの中で混ざり合い、新しい景色を描写するかのような素晴らしいスタートを切ったpalet。
全国7都市を回るツアーはまだ始まったばかり。彼女たちのパフォーマンスは各会場でさらに進化を遂げるだろう。このツアーがpaletをさらに力強く成長させることが楽しみでならない。

The venerable Japanese word "kawaii" is not the adjective "cute"; it is just a word used to communicate the state of mind of feeling love for something.
