EGOIST to make history by holding simultaneous performances in Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya

28.November.2017 | MUSIC

EGOIST have drawn much attention on social media with the recent announcement of their forthcoming greatest hits album GREATEST HITS 2011-2017 “ALTER EGO” to be released on December 27th.

 

A special live performance titled EGOIST Special gig “ALTER EGO” is planned for December 29th to celebrate the release of the album. But this won’t be any ordinary performance, as EGOIST are planning something completely new. The performance will be held across 3 venues in Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka – all at the same time. Many artists have held “live viewings” in the past, but EGOIST will be changing it up a bit for their concert.

Even if fans are in a different venue they will be synced with the main venue the entire time so they can enjoy the performance live. You could definitely say this is something only possible by EGOIST. Vocalist chelly’s movements will be motion captured. That data will be used to project Inori Yuzuriha, EGOIST’s fictional lead vocalist, on-stage in real time to simulate her singing and dancing on stage. chelly’s movements will be motion captured at Zepp DiverCity Tokyo, the main venue, to bring Inori Yuzuriha to life at Zepp Nagoya and Zepp Osaka Bayside.

 

The lighting and sound will be exactly the same at all 3 venues, and the crowds in Nagoya and Osaka will be able to see the real chelly’s ongoing performance in Tokyo on the big screens so they can enjoy both ends.

 

If you’re in Japan this winter, don’t miss out on this one-of-a-kind performance made possible by EGOIST.

    The tour was set to end at Zepp DiverCity Tokyo on March 31, but due to demand from the tickets selling out a follow-up show will take place at the same venue on April 6.

    The other tracks on the single include a cover of the traditional English nursery rhyme London Bridge is Falling Down as well as The Everlasting Guilty Crown Nightcore mix, a remix of one of the duo’s most famous songs from their early days.

  • Concert Review: EGOIST Announce 2018 Asia Tour at Hong Kong Show on June 23

    26.June.2018 | MUSIC

    Pop music duo EGOIST produced by member Ryo (Supercell) released their greatest hits album Greatest Hits 2011-2017 “Alter Ego” at the end of last year which has gone on to perform successfully in both the physical and digital versions.

     

    Songwriter Ryo and vocalist Chelly performed at Kitec-Star Hall in Hong Kong on June 23. At the very end of the show, they announced a 2018 Asia tour which earned wild applause from the crowd.

    The venue was packed with 1,500 fans, and a strange air of excitement filled the room as they waited for the anticipated arrival. Everything cut to black, signalling the start of a memorable night, as Euterpe began to play. The song is popular as one of the insert songs heard in the anime series Guilty Crown. EGOIST are known for originating in the anime series where they performed as a fictional band, eventually going on to huge success in the real world.

     

    With the song over, and the crowd already fallen into the world of EGOISTThe Everlasting Guilty Crown began to play. The instant it came on, there were howls of joy so fierce it almost felt like the building was coming down.

     

    A string of popular hits followed, including Extra terrestial Biological EntitiesAme, Kimi o Tsurete, and Suki to Iwareta Hi. The set was hit after hit, leaving no time to breathe and leading the excitement to an ever-growing rise.

     

    When a breather finally came, the duo greeted fans in Chinese. This was their second performed in Hong Kong. They spoke warmly to fans, who clapped over and over.

    Things cranked up into full gear as they performed some of their most well-known songs, including ReloadedKabaneri of the Iron Fortress, and Namae no Nai Kaibutsu. To finish up the main part of the show they played their treasured ballad Kimi Sora Kiseki which brought fans together as one.

    Cries and clapping sounded through the room as fans called for an encore. Chelly stepped out onto stage once more, and surprised everyone with some covers. First up was Désir by GARNiDELiA which she co-performed together at a previous concert. This was followed by the famous Kimi no Shiranai Monogatari by Supercell, another band spearheaded by Ryo. The Hong Kong fans couldn’t predict there would be surprise covers like this, and it showed in their explosive excitement. The concert finished with EGOIST’s debut single Departures ~Anaya ni Okuru Ai no Uta~.

    Just when everyone thought there couldn’t be anymore surprises, the words “EGOIST ASIA TOUR 2018” appeared on screen, satisfying the anticipation of fans already waiting for the next show.

  • EGOIST will hold live concerts in Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya. The cover song of “supercell” will be performed

    08.January.2018 | MUSIC

    EGOIST is an imaginary artist produced by ryo (supercell).

    The best album of EGOIST (CD/Internet distribution) released on the 27th of December (Wed.) is gaining much popularity and the band held, “EGOIST Special gig ‘ALTER EGO’” on the 29th (Fri.) of December last year at Zepp DiverCity.

     _5MI9967

    This live was broadcasted at Zepp Osaka Bayside and Zepp Nagoya under the name of “ EGOIST sync*001 / Special gig ‘ALTER EGO.’”

    EGOIST Special gig “ALTER EGO” is a special commemorative live of the best album, GREATEST HITS 2011-2017 “ALTER EGO” which was released on the 27th of December (Wed.). The live was broadcast on Nikoniko Nama Hoso and about 25,000 fans enjoyed their performance.

     _5MI9717

    The charm of EGOIST’s live is the fact that they use the latest motion capture technology. The performance of the vocal of the band chelly is detected with special cameras and Cho Inori (the vocal of EGOSIT in the animation), the heroin of the animation “Guilty Clown” resonates to chelly’s movements.

    Shouts of glee went up from the audience as soon as the intro of “The Everlasting Guilty Crown” was played. After that, the band performed two popular songs, “Extra terrestrial Biological Entities” and “Ame, Kimi wo Tsurete” which are not included in the best album. The audience of the venue were filled with excitement with a rapid rendition.

    The forth song was “Sukito Iwareta Hi,”a fast-tempo digital song which was distributed on the Internet and the audience were drawn into the world of EGOIST. After the song was finished, they performed MC performance and inflamed the fans. The voice of the audience in the venues of Nagoya and Osaka could be heard at the venue in Tokyo and the whole venue was filled with a sense of unity.

    They also performed some popular songs including,“Reloaded” and “Namae no Nai Kaibutsu” and the audience were filled with excitement! After that, they performed “KABANERI OF THE IRON FORTRESS” and “Eiyu Unmei no Uta.” The strong voice of chelly heated up the venue. Lastly, they performed superb ballads such as“Ghost of a smile,” “Kono Sekaide Mitsuketa Mono,” “Kimisora Kiseki” and the live was finished.

    After the anchor, the vocal cehlly reappeared on the stage and performed a fast-tempo rock number “It’s all about you.” The set list of the live included many B-side songs, not just songs included in the best album based on chelly’s wish to reflect on the history of EGOIST.

    The live successfully delivered the charms of the band to many people who listened to EGOIST’s music for the first time, not just old fans.

     

    As a second and third song of the anchor part, they performed a cover song which are “The Bravery” and “Kokuhaku” of supercell lead by the producer of the band ryo. The audience went wild while the songs were performed. “Kokuhaku” is the latter ending theme of the animation“Guilty Crown”which is a message song given from the main character of the animation Shu to the heroin/vocal of the band Cho Inori. The venue was filled with excitement with this surprise and the live ended with “All Alone With You.”

     

    chelly reappeared on the stage in response to the applause of fans and performed the debut single of EGOIST “Departures ~Anatani Okuru Ai no Uta~.” The voice of chelly singing this song gently filled the venue and some of the fans were crying. EGOIST Special gig “ALTER EGO” ended on a high note.

    Keep your eyes focused on EGOIST’s storm of activities in store for this new year.

  • EGOIST surprise fans with Christmas street concert in 7 cities around Japan

    28.December.2017 | MUSIC

    EGOIST released their greatest hits album GREATEST HITS 2011-2017 “ALTER EGO” this week on December 27th. On Christmas Day, in the run up to the release of the CD, EGOIST also performed a special Christmas street concert simultaneously in seven cities across Japan.

    《1108 18時解禁》【EOGIST】BEST AL Illust_1108 小

    EGOIST is a pop music duo produced by ryo (supercell) that spawned from the anime series Guilty Crown. Originally, EGOIST existed as a fictional band solely within the Guilty Crown universe, with EGOIST’s other half Chelly acting as the vocalist for the character Inori Yuzuriha. However, even after the anime’s broadcast the music unit have continued to put out content together and have even brought EGOIST to perform the main theme songs for other anime series.

    _L3A0894

    The greatest hits album Christmas live show saw EGOIST steal the spotlight on giant advertising screens across Sapporo, Sendai, Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, Hiroshima and Fukuoka. It was recently revealed that a strange countdown clock with the words “Present for the fam*” had appeared on EGOIST’s official website which was set to end on Christmas day. The Christmas present for the EGOIST fans was revealed to be the Christmas live show titled EGOIST christmas exhibition “Present for the *fam”. The concert was also streamed live on YouTube. Together with the street watchers and the audience at home, a total of around 7,000 people participated in this special night.

    _P8A6543

    Once the clock turned 18:00 the title of the concert appeared simultaneously on all platforms, revealing the mystery surrounding the countdown clock. Shortly afterwards, Inori Yuzuriha stepped into view which sparked a chain reaction of uncontrollable excitement across fans in all locations. The first song to be performed was an a cappella of Silent Night to set the Christmastime mood. The people walking by in the street also found themselves stopping spontaneously from the beautiful voice of Inori Yuzuriha. After a short talk, the performance continued with two more songs: All Alone With You and Departures ~Anata ni Okuru Ai no Uta~. To close the 15-minute performance, a handwritten sign by both ryo (supercell) and Chelly was displayed onscreen together with the message “Merry Christmas.” You could catch glimpses of fans moved to tears by the show. It was one Christmas present they will never forget.

    _P8A6632

    EGOIST are set to perform their EGOIST Special gig “ALTER EGO” show on December 29th, a concert to commemorate the release of their greatest hits album. The concert will be performed simultaneously in Nagoya and Osaka, titled EGOIST sync*001 / Special gig “ALTER EGO”. Full details for this unprecedented show can be found here.

  • EGOIST’s tour finale features special guest collaboration with GARNiDELiA!

    22.August.2017 | MUSIC

    “EGOIST”, the fictional artist band produced by Ryo (Supercell), opened their tour finale for “EGOIST” Greeting Tour 2017 (E/A) on Friday 18th August at Zepp Nagoya. The finale featured special guest GARNiDELiA, who took to the stage for their number “Désir”, which is the ending theme song of the TV anime “Fate/Apocrypha”. The tour included a collaboration performance of EGOIST’s best number “The Everlasting Guilty Crown” and much more – what a special way to mark the end of the tour!

    ★DSD_6057

    The “EGOIST Greeting Tour 2017 E/A” included their new song “Eiyuu Unmei no Uta”, which was released for sale on Wednesday 16th August. This was performed at 7 lives in a total of 6 cities – Sapporo, Sendai, Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka and Fukuoka. A grand 10,000 people attended the tour. The venue quickly swelled up with the excitement of fans who overflowed the venue, especially at the grand finale held in Nagoya.

    ★DSD_6209

    The venue suddenly blacked out, and as the sound of the intro to “Namae no nai Kaibutsu” resonated through the venue, the crowd began to cheer with excitement. The venue was heated up with “KABANERI OF THE IRON FORTRESS”, leaving the vocalists out of breath from the start. EGOIST drew the audience into their world with their third song “Door”. The toned-down nature of this song did not fail to capture the audience.

    ★DSD_6096

    The singers then took their first break to welcome the audience with a big smile. This live marked the first ever live broadcast of EGOIST, so the performers greeted not just the fans in the venue, but also viewers watching the broadcast. After talking about the current popular TV anime “Fate/Apocrypha”, they performed the opening theme song “Eiyuu Unmei no Uta”. During this song, vocalist INORI dressed in the same armour and headwear as Ruler from the series. Her magnificent grand voice swallowed the fans.

     

    The performance continued with “Fallen”, “Welcome to the *fam” and “Reloaded”. These upbeat songs electrified the audience with enthusiasm. After hitting the climax, the second half of the live was toned down, where Chelly’s vocals shone through mid-tempo ballads. After the three songs “Ghost of a smile”, “All Alone With You”, and “Eien”, it was time for the final song; “Departures 〜 Anata ni Okuru Ai no Uta”. Many fans could not hold back their tears.

    DSD_6170 小

    In response to the audience screaming for an encore, Chelly reappeared on stage, calling special guest GARNiDELiA back to the stage. For the whole tour, EGOIST covered different songs in the “Fate” TV anime series for each venue. For the tour finale held in Nagoya, GARNiDELiA, who was in charge of the ending theme song of “Fate/Apocrypha”, was called forward to finish the special live with the ending song “Désir”.

    DSC_5640 小

    GARNiDELiA’s stunning performance was met with a large applause. However, EGOIST and GARNiDELiA had a surprise up their sleeve. Upon announcing their collaboration song, Chelly signalled the start of the song with “So, please listen!” The intro for one of EGOIST’s best numbers “The Everlasting Guilty Crown” reverberated through the venue, triggering cheers and screams from the audience that shook the whole building.

     

    The unimaginable, special collaboration of this famous song lifted the day, leaving fans tingling with excitement. Amongst the roaring crowd, GARNiDELiA stood on the stage, presenting “Kimi Sora Kiseki” – an ultimate fan favourite. With that, the live came to a close.

    ★DSD_6055

    No other venue gave such an applause as this one. Although the live finished at this location, the applause rang for such a long time that Chelly made another appearance on stage. The performers also announced their special single coupling track for “Eiyuu Unmei no Uta”, which includes a version with English lyrics called “Eiyu Fate’s Song”. The applause roared even more in response to their surprise entrance on stage. It was great to know that the “EGOIST Greeting Tour 2017 (E /A)” ended on such a high note.
