On the "Hop Step Sing!" Live event held at Mount Eizan summit stage, Kodansha Shoji Sato acted as a moderator.


Though the line became difficult to connect due to the stage on the mountain, three people of Hop Step Sing! Were reflected on the screen. The video and sound of the venue seemed to have not arrived, and at the beginning three talks of the dressing room were unfolded.


First of all, I introduce my self. In the middle, Rainbow River Ninaki constantly smiles, waving to the audience.


Ribbon sticking to the right is an orange character, Shihisa Isaji. While revealing an unexpected profile that "I love training goods", she gave me a gentle smile.


The blond hair character on the left is Minowa Mikasa. Although it is a childish way of speaking, the most positive impression among the three people, expressions change swiftly. In addition, there were scenes that winked towards the audience.


Even YouTube and Nico Nico live broadcasts were broadcast as "Hop Step live broadcast!" The state of the event on YouTube has been released in a 360 degree movie and can be seen from the following.
