Theme：RINA

Finalー!!

As I thought it'd be. Applause.
Thank you for the awesome night!
I'm really glad I got to see everyone\

Lives are festivals
Everything you don't like melts into the short night
It's an awesome power spot

Frankly speaking, right now is the first time I've experienced the growth of the band this much
This tour brought up the band, and the songs on STANDARD woke the 4 of us up

It was so cool.
This tour.

I'm so grateful to everyone.
I want to keep spending fun times together
Till death, true to our word, we'll stay as a band that has dreams

We're playing 3 lives in arenas next June.
Our second time at Osaka-Jo Hall, and our first time at Yokohama Arena with 2 days! The best

You only live once, so I want many dreams to come true
I want to meet many people
Best regards for the small remainder of this year, and next year that'll be full of excitement!

I love SCANDAL

21 performances across the country; thank you to all of the 40,000 people!

Tonight we're appearing on FNS's live broadcast!
I'll be thinking of you guys

What is that Mami's holding in the second to last image?
She's been tweeting a lot about that little yellow character lately, and judging by her expression, I'm guessing she's a fan lol

At NHK Hall, Rina also said during the MC that they want to still be doing this when they're 60 years old. She joked that they may have to wear a different type of outfit and they may all have to sit down during the whole show, but that's their plan.

I think she means it when she says "til death" up there - not sure what the original Japanese was but she really seems to want to do this forever.

Hopefully they will be able to do it. The most important thing is that they have the choice to do so and are free and happy.

RINA is still very young (they all are) so maybe she will have another opinion in a few years, especially if she wants to start a family?

When you get a bit older your priorities can change and they also work a lot so it could wear them out little by little. But of course it seems they are really passionate about music so with all the information we have, SCANDAL will last a long time!!!

After all they said that the album STANDARD was just the end of chapter 1 for them Happy

Always possible, but if they really love the band, there are ways they can work around anything that happens in the future. I always think of Puffy; they're only two girls so it's easier to stick together, but still, they've been around since 1996 and are still out there releasing albums and performing even though both of them have families of their own now. Scandal can do that too someday, but probably not right now when they're in their prime as a band and still really focused on growing and building a fan base.

The thing I think is cool about Rina is how she always says she'd probably never have done the kinds of things she does now if not for joining this band. She seems like she was a completely different type of person before, and she doesn't sound like she wants to go back to that boring life. Someday she might finally get bored with this one too, but maybe this is just what she's meant to do.

She said "shinu made" = quite literally, "until death/until I die."

Ah, was about to explain what shinu made yuugenjikko meant but Jade ninja-ed it :PYeah, it says what it says, until death, they'll remain true to their promise (to keep going)

If you guys notice, Rina expresses her gratitude for the band very often. No surprises, because out of the four of them, she was the one who came closest to quitting one time because she felt she "wasn't good enough" for the band. This was before their SXSW Japan Night US tour in 2008 IIRC. Luckily for her (and for us), Haruna talked her into staying.

I think this memory has stuck with her all through these years and she is probably thinking of what it would've been like if she had followed through and left.

I too hope that they continue doing what they do. They are still so young and the whole world is literally still in front of them. So many things they have yet to do.

Here's to 20 more years. Or more. *drinks*

Oh yeah even if she (or another member) wants a family it doesn't mean the end of the band they can work around it and all Happy

Just wanted to point out that priorities can change when you grow older and RINA is the youngest.

But there is no doubt that they are all passionate about the band and music, they are not just in to cash some money in without passion! RINA is crazy about the band, they all are I think and are happy to have such a life.

@macdyne: 20 years?! No no no, much more, let's go 40 Happy
