On May 3rd, Yukirin performed two sold out concerts (Kashiwagi Yuki × AruAru City Vol.1) at the new Aru Aru City Hologram Theatre. Previous news can be found here: http://kashiwagiyukirin.com/2017/04/09/4862/.
The May concerts are part of a series of concerts held to commemorate the opening of the new hologram theatre which can also act as a regular theatre. The theatre has a capacity of 400 people. Since Yukirin was the ambassador for Aruaru City, Yukirin banners, posters, sign boards, etc., were every where. Even the elevator face was Yukirin! Original goods as well as special tapioca drinks with Yukirin cups were also sold.

Band members were all familiar faces who have played in the past for Yukirin at her concerts with the exception of the violinist who is Shiori Nishihara. The setlist for the afternoon and the evening shows were slightly different. The song which seemed to have received a lot of comments and high praise was “Akikan Punk” which was a coupling song on NGT48’s debut single.
During one of the MCs, Yukirin did talk about sousenkyo (AKB48 single election). She said by not being in sousenkyo, she won’t be on music shows, so fans won’t see her on tv nor will she get a chance to wear new clothes for the song. But now, she doesn’t have to worry about people saying she is doing these things because it’s sousenkyo, she can do whatever she wants during this period and she won’t get those comments so she’s happy. In terms of how to repay fans for their support for sousenkyo over the years, she mentioned how during HS events, 80% of fans would ask about solo concerts so she thinks this is the best way to make fans happy. So she hopes everyone can put their money towards this instead.
Yukirin also mentioned her next concert (Vol.2) at the Aru Aru City Theatre will be in the summer, could be August or September as it’s not finalized.

at this point this aruaru city will be yukirin regular theater instead akiba.
well if its on me, this theater way better than “that”. LOL
haha. But, I think Yukirin might get to appear a bit more at the AKB Theatre. At least she’s in the shonichi of the Thumbnail stage.
