  * Event report version 0.8 by Hitoshi Doi, 2002.12.11 

This was a very long three and a half hour event, but it seemed like

The opening video clip was a new video clip introducing each LaLaLu
member. Then the LaLaLu members came onto the stage wearing a mix of
their red and white outfits (red tops and white skirts/pants). After
singing 4 songs, they did a long skit (play). 

This skit was a follow on to the game Chocolate Kiss, called Christmas
Love Letter. The script was written by Hinano Mayo, and this skit was
around 30 minutes. All of the girls cosplayed as their characters in
Chocolate Kiss! VERY CUTE! At the end of the play, everyone sang My
All in their character voices. 

Then they did a musical, called the Chori Wonton sound musical. This
musical was totally lip synched, and was around 30 minutes. Chori
Wonton transformed into the Super TWINS (T = Tyori, W = Wonton, INS 
Instrumental). The Chori Won outfit is a polo shirt (Non white, Sara
black) and red training pants. But the Super Twins outfit is a very
sexy, tight, flashy mini one piece. Sara said that this was the
shortest skirt she ever wore, and will "show everything". (^_^; 

The story of the musical was basically a battle between Chori Wonton
(ai no senshi, the fighters for love) and the evil Lady Compass
(Minano Fuuko). Ohtsuka Mae played Mary (the girl) and Hinano Mayo
played Oscar (the guy). 

Then each girl sang solo songs from various games, that were written
by Asada Yumi (the producer of LaLaLu). 

The version of "Only Lonely Star" that Sara sang was the original lyrics
written by Asada Yumi. (It probably got changed when Nishiguchi Yuka
recorded it in 1987.) 

Noa only sang the last half of "Kimi ga Ireba.." 
There were some Sentimental Graffiti 2 songs also,
but I didn't know them.

After the solo songs, the girls sang some more LaLaLu songs to end the
event.  They were wearing their black outfits.

For the encore, they sang the long version of "You & I" and "Clap & Jump". 
They were wearing new black (or dark blue) and white outfits.

After the event, the LaLaLu girls came to the lobby to sell LaLaLu
goods. There were many new goods, made just for this event. 

There were several video cameras taking videos of this event,
so I think they will sell a video of this later.
