NTV's sponsored event 「NTV's HALLOWEEN LIVE 2016」 is being held for three days from 10/28 to 10/30 at Yoyogi National Stadium First Gymnasium in Tokyo. This is a report of the opening day held yesterday.

On the first day were six performers: Country Girls, Little Glee Monster, SCANDAL, KEYTALK, Nogizaka46, and ℃-ute. As this was a Halloween live, each artist performed while dressed in costume. Additionally, a talk session was held after each live with NTV announcer Taichi Masu.

For SCANDAL's act they collaborated with a fan of theirs, Airi Suzuki from ℃-ute. This collaboration came about when the members of SCANDAL found out that Airi had written on her blog about going to SCANDAL's live. HARUNA said, 「We're dressed up as a very exaggerated Tiger Lily (from Peter Pan)」 Matching SCANDAL, Airi made her appearance wearing a Jessie from Toy Story-like costume. Voices cheered out when she said, 「I had my face painted to match theirs!」 HARUNA revealed that she has the first single of the unit that Airi was previously in, and when the reciprocal love was discovered, Airi showed a state of humbleness by saying 「This is awesome」. The performers faced each other and gave an enthuastic performance of 「Shunkan Sentimental」, chosen by Airi, while smiling happily.

After ℃-ute's live, Airi talked about the joy of doing a collaboration with SCANDAL. 「I stood on stage together with my beloved SCANDAL. That made me very happy.」
