JKT48 Flying Get Concert

A not-so-mini-but-no-so-big JKT48 Flying Get concert was held last night (March 15^th 2014) at Nusa Indah Theater, Balai Kartini, Jakarta. The concert was announced just five days prior. Nusa Indah Theater has the capacity of 1,000 seats.

For last night’s concert, the seats were divided into 3 classes: Balcony (Approx. 200 seats), Tribune (Approx. 760 seats), and special Flying Get seats (limited only to 40 seats). The Flying Get seats received many special bonuses, such as meet and greet with Generation 3 members.

The venue has amphitheater seats, so that people watching from the last row can still see the stage clearly.

I think it would be great if in the near future, such small concerts could also be held again in this theater. May be for every 3 months? The current price for this theater is still acceptable though. Some special shows that usually attract more than 800 people into JKT48 theater can be held here as an alternative.

Last night’s concert focused on several things: Introduction to Flying Get songs, introduction to Team J “Dareka no Tame ni” setlist, introduction to Team KIII “Seishun Girls” setlist, announcement of Generation 3 members, and announcement of sousenkyou preliminary ranks.

Now for the show itself, here’s the last night’s setlist and rundowns:

Kageana (opening) by Nabilah.

M00. Overture.

M01. Flying Get – single senbatsu.

M02. Hanikami Lollypop – single senbatsu.

MC session with Sisil, Novinta, Dena, Acha, Nadila, Noella, Hanna, Sinka, Uty, Shafa, and Via.

They play wordplay (“plesetan”) game on the stage, and close it by saying happy birthday to resident trainee, Dena. Suddenly fans that sat on the balcony spread a giant big banner, so members on the stage could see it. Unfortunately, the banner was displayed upside down, and get sudden laugh by members on the stage. The banners were corrected quickly. After the MC session was closed, the banner was also rolled back.

Sketch session.

It was a funny drama featuring several JKT48 girls. The theme was election (sousenkyou). It was a mixed up concept between JKT48 election and legislative election. Melody appeared as the host, wearing glasses, white shirt, and black glossy tight skirt (please don’t imagine this).

Several other members sat as audiences. The setting was at a district governor office. A giant sign on the wall said, “Sosialisasi Pemilu – Kantor Kelurahan Senbatsu Kecamatan JKT48” (Socialization of Election – JTK48 District Office).

The sketch scene has Ayana being possessed and Nabilah sprayed her with drinking water from her mouth (A reenactment of how traditional Shaman cure their “patient”). The sketch also feature Viny (as a guy from a political party) with Ve as her assistant.

The sketch also feature Haruka (as a guy from Japan) who only spoke the word “Yombre!” and Natalia as her assistant. Natalia translated what Haruka said. It was a really funny scene, especially seeing Haruka drive and crawl on the floor just like a soccer player who just scored a goal.

MC session with Jeje, Rachel, Delima, Ayana, Shania, Melody, Nabilah, Kinal. Dhike, Haruka, Gaby, and Sendy. They talked about the recent sketch session.

It was interesting that the remaining trainees got their own spotlight last night. They have previously performed the song on theater. Last night was their chance to perform the song with bigger audiences.

MC session with all members came to the stage. They all wore the red and white seifuku. Melody and Kinal then introduced the 32 members of Generation 3. Two years ago the first generation wore white t-shirts, and a year ago the second generation wore red t-shirts. Now the third generation wore pink t-shirts. Each of the 32 members introduced themselves on the stage.

Announcement by Jiro. He stood on the stage and shared the latest quick count of sousenkyou. These are the numbers:

M16. Medley (Baby! Baby! Baby! – Oogoe Diamond – Manatsu no Sounds Good – River) – Generation 1 and 2

The short version songs were compiled as medley.

M17. Shoujotachiyo – Generation 1 and 2

Several members were performing on the stage, while others walked to several aisles inside the amphitheater. The girls were singing and dancing on the stairs next to the audiences. During the song, since I sat next to an aisle, I saw Yona and Uty performing next to me.

M18. First Rabbit – Generation 1 and 2

The members’ positions were rotated. Now I have Via and Sinka performing next to me on the aisle.

The show was ended with members saying goodbye, as always.
