Nijisanji held its 8th Anniversary LIVE "CONCERTO" Day1 on May 16 at Makuhari Messe, featuring eight female livers in common costumes. The setlist included covers and original songs, with standout moments like Mito Tsukino cutting her hair mid-performance and Petra Gurin appearing from a mirror. Streaming tickets are available until May 31.
The eight performers-Mito Tsukino, Ange Katrina, Lize Helesta, Furen E Lustario, Yan Nari, Nozomi Ishigami, Petra Gurin, and Meroko Kyouran-opened with "Virtual to LIVE" in newly revealed common costumes. The setlist leaned into Heisei-era pop covers: Ange and Lize harmonized on "Love is Explosion," while Mito performed "Immoralist" with a theatrical bit that included cutting her own hair on stage. Furen debuted her original song "Zenkoutei!" and later told the audience she had practiced heavily for the show. The event is part of the larger Nijisanji Fest 2026, which runs through May 17 at Makuhari Messe.
