8/8 Yukirin at AKB48G Summer Festival News Roundup

The AKB48 Group Summer Festival is a three day event at Makuhari Messe from 8/8 to 8/10. 8/8 replaces the 6/14 Labrador Retriever national handshake event. 8/9 to 8/10 is the schedule Labrador Retriever individual handshake event. During the 3 days, there are lots of activities and performances. Just like any festival, there are games and food within the main hall area. There are also areas where you can get autographs from the 48group members.

Yukirin held a mini solo live on 8/8 at 12pm. A separate post was written about Yukirin’s solo live at the festival here: http://kashiwagiyukirin.com/2014/08/09/2667/

 

After the solo live, Yukirin took part in the Karaoke Kami-7 Songs Countdown.  She performed EZ DO DANCE with Sasshi and Miichan as TRF with Yukirin as YU-KI, Miichan as SAM and Sasshi as DJ Koo.  Looked like a riot!

 

Following the karaoke contest and some rest, Yukirin enjoyed the festivities at the festival. At one point, her & Sasshi went out to the main area to greet fans and have some fun themselves.  They went to the main hall where a taiko drum was setup and chatted with fans.  Lots of videos and pictures were taken by fans of Yukirin and Sasshi.

 

The full video of Yukirin & Sasshi at the drum:

 

One of my favourite moments is went Sasshi did a monomane of Yukirin dancing to Kokoro no Placard:  http://www.mobypicture.com/user/rinoancy/view/17165847

Another funny moment was when Mayu interrupted Yukirin & Sasshi’s drumming:

So then Yukirin & Sasshi tried again:

Sasshi & Yukirin also visited Yukirin Robot and took pictures with the Robot. The Yukirin Robot is on display for all three days at the festival.

They then head to the food area and tried the frozen cantaloupe ice cream.

 

The amazing thing about this festival, and many many fans have remarked about it was how close the members got to mingle with the fans in the festivities area.

 

Photo collections shared by many fans online. Thank you Yukirin fans!

   This event looked super amazing!!!

   And it seems as though Yuki had a good time (it’s great seeing her and Sasshi together they have a great and Unique chemistry together) and so did all of the fans

   Yuki was also in a lot of things which was good to see, seems as though there were plenty of times to see (and get close) to her 🙂
