ナイトメア (NIGHTMARE)

Just so you guys know, all of Nightmare’s early releases (2001-2006) are on streaming now :smiley: including the 2005 and 2024 Tenka Sai/Daiboso concerts. These were put up on my birthday and it’s the PERFECT gift

Nightmare has responded to our prayer
2 days ago avex twitter announced that all Nightmare singles under avex is up!!! (though I haven’t seen any of them got uploaded? is it only me???)

Summary of 16 April livestream for you

Mostly it was the usual Nightmare goofy talk and Nightmare bullying Nobotan (MC, he has been doing vkei-related MC stuff for very long time). There are many things I can’t summarize since the guys made it from a promotion event to a casual nonsense conversation. Imagine you and your friends talk for hours, then when you get home you ask yourself “wtf did we talk about the whole day?”. In DVD or livestream, you can see how hilarious and silly the guys have already been, but this is how they really look like in their non-recorded shows

  About Tenka Saiboso 2024:
  • When they were discussing about releasing the bluray, they wanted to make the package design resembling the 2005 one. This would require permission from Nippon Crown (their first major label who released the 2005 ver). When they contacted Nippon Crown, the directing manager was so happy and helped them with the release, he said “it feels like your baby has grown up into a 25 years old adult, and now coming back to see you again”.

  • 2005 package design had 5 horses in the front and 5 deers in the back. Horse in Japanese is written as 馬, deer is 鹿, when putting 2 words together we have 馬鹿 (baka). So basically it means a band of 5 idiots. They have brought this design back to the bluray.

    Throwbacks and fan questions
    
  • Ruka has said this many times but he remembers nothing from the 2024 show. He was sweating a lot and overheated that day. Yomi said after the 1st half of the show, Ruka had to lie down in the backstage and almost seemed like he lost consciousness. They had to let him rest a bit before calling him back to the stage for the 2nd half.

  • Fan question 1: What single/album they found most difficult to produce?
    They agreed that not the single or album itself but it was about the hard schedule they had. Yomi said during the busiest period they worked almost everyday and could only rest once in 3 or 4 months. Or for Dasei Boogie, they didn’t have time to write a song, so they decided on costume first then figured what kind of melody would fit the costume.

  • Fan question 2: If you can have anything, including things that money can’t buy, what do you want now?
    Hitsu, Ni~ya: health
    Ruka: a kingdom
    Yomi: all the tax money from Ruka’s kingdom
    Sakito: perfect songs. Btw Nobotan, what do you want?
    Yomi: Hair? (Nobotan is bald)

(then they all laughed dead)

  Other highlights

↓ Ni~ya wrote something very inappropriate and couldn’t stop laughing about it :joy:)

↓ Yomi noticed Ruka looking at Yomi direction so he decided to show Ruka some titties

Ruka’s pretty smiles

Hitsu describes that time when Yomi was provoking the audience and unintentionally HIT HIS ELBOW SO HARD ON HITSU’S HEAD that slumped Hitsu’s neck

Saw that too. I think It maybe limited to Japan. Maybe someone with a VPN or that lives there may confirm.

Uploaded where ? From what I last saw on Spotify the avex stuff was already all on Spotify. And a couple years ago that was the only Nightmare era on streaming except for the DN songs and maybe Raison D’etre.

I do remember some of them being region locked to Japan though

All the popular streaming platforms in Japan like Spotify, Youtube Music, Rakuten Music etc
I’m in Japan but my Spotify doesnt show songs from avex era :thinking:
Btw I have just updated my previous post with the summary of their recent livestream!

Same for me here in Europe

I have no words

I always thought this would happen eventually.

I haven’t been following them but did Yomi get arrested in the US? :scream:

Anyone here in Japan and know anything about the new song ? All I could find was that it’s called Smile, written by Hitsugi and that it’s a little “weird”

Like “weird” in what way? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

I’ve been trying to keep up with their tracklist for the tour but I haven’t seen that. Any more info?

I know Sakito has talked about recording twice since the tour starred so I assumed they had 2 unkown unreleased Sakito demos in their back pocket. Glad to know Hiysugi is at It too and It far along they can actually play it live.

Im hopefully for a new album announcement at the tour final!!

Ruka was super cute omg…

I wonder if Mist is composed by Ruka, given that it’s his birthday…

It IS composed and written by Ruka from what I’ve heard ! It’s definitely his vibe

It does sound like a Ruka song but It really hard to know these days…
