— 真夜中のサーカス (@mayonaka_circus) August 25, 2026

I started planning my trip the moment they announced their return to Kinema Club on September 1st. I purely wanted to see Taiga’s work and support the boys, especially since September 1st marks my 1st anniversary as a #真夜中のサーカス fan—I fell in love with their performance at the Sincere Festival last year. 🎪❤️

I’m very impulsive and I believe in fate. 💫 I purchased two flight tickets ✈️ for my elder sister and me in early July, even before ticketing opened. My mindset was simple: if I’m meant to go by God’s will, nothing can stop it, and if not, then I’ll just change the flight dates for a normal trip ✈️. I really didn’t think I would manage to get VIP tickets, but to my absolute surprise, our VIP tickets were confirmed! 😱🎉

私にとって初めてのライブ体験は、まるで夢のように重なった時間でした。東京キネマ倶楽部での公演が発表された瞬間から、「絶対にライブに行きたい！」と心に決めていました。

理由は3つあります。

• 9月1日は真夜中のサーカスのファンになってからちょうど1周年の記念日だから。昨年のシンセレフェスでのパフォーマンスを見て、一瞬でファンになりました。
• ずっと憧れていた大河くんの作品を、この目で見て応援したい。
• 真夜中のサーカスの凄さを、生で体感したい。

当時はまだ父の許可も取っておらず、チケットの当とう落らくすら分からない状態でしたが、自分の直感と運命を信じて迷わず姉と二人分の航空券を予約してしまいました。 FC先せん行こう抽ちゅう選せんは本当に緊張しましたが、無事にVIPチケットをゲットすることができました！

Getting Permission & Preparing for the Journey 👨‍👧‍👧

The Dr Pepper Incident: Ryuga, Why You Like This?! 🐯🥤

RYUGA MENTIONED TAIGA AND I’M NOT OKAY 🚨🐯

RYUGA!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW?! 😭😭😭

I am actually vibrating. I am spiraling. I am REELING. 🐯💨

So, here’s the tea: Whenever I’m sitting there with my screen recorder ready, waiting for even a hint of a mention... NOTHING. Silence. Zero. 🔇

But today? When I’m just casually watching, totally unprepared and off-guard? Ryuga just... nonchalantly drops Taiga’s name like it’s just a Tuesday!! 🐯💖✨

🥤 THE DR PEPPER LORE 🥤

He said Taiga-san likes Dr Pepper. Apparently, he's the one who introduced the whole Mayonaka no Circus squad to it! Can you imagine them all sipping Dr Pepper because Taiga told them to? My heart!! 🐯🥤💥

RYUGA, YOU ABSOLUTE TEASE!! 😤🐯

How dare you give us these precious crumbs when I’m not recording?! I am officially a Dr Pepper stan now, I don’t make the rules. 🐯🥤🔥

23 Years of Kota Matsumoto 🥂

JOINED: 2003.04.12 💚 Anniversary +1 Day!

I’m technically a day late with this post, but for a good reason—I was so busy celebrating and watching Kota-kun yesterday that I didn't have a second to breathe! 😂 Happy 23rd Anniversary to our favorite Stage King!

Whether you’ve been a fan since the M.A.D. days, cheered him on during the Uchū Six (宇宙Six) era, or are supporting him now in Akutare (あくたれ), his 23-year journey is something we all treasure. He never stops working for us!

SILENT LOVE

The Fragile Architect 🐯 🥀 🎡

I really didn't want to write about him again so soon. I have other drafts of Maeda Taisho's Release Event and Matsumoto Kota's Grand Rion waiting! 🙄 But Akiyama Taiga in "Silent Love" is a total system error. It’s a technical, heartbreaking problem that I’m forced to decode because his "foul play" is just... medically dangerous. 🩺💔

It took me almost three weeks of looping these clips to finally finish this analysis. ⏳😤 Many fans have said that Taiga looks like he is dancing to a completely different choreography than the rest of the group. Is he? I had to find out. (If you think I’m obsessed, you’re wrong. I’m just... observing the physics. 🔬🐯)

✨ Happy 24th Anniversary ✨

"Your smile is always a medicine to heal my broken heart."

I’m writing this from work, and though I don’t have my usual scans or videos with me to create the fanart you deserve, I couldn't let this milestone pass without a message.

Hikaru-kun, thank you for staying in the entertainment world for these 24 years. Thank you for every performance, every stage, and for always being a source of light. Your resilience and that signature smile have gotten me through so much.

Happy Anniversary! I'll always be cheering for you from the sidelines.

24 Years of Shine • Since 2002

ERU’S UNSOLVED CASE: The "Least Harm" Diagnosis behind the 2019 System Failure

[Warning / 注意ちゅうい]
This entry discusses the 2019 "System Failure" (scandal) and subsequent departure. If you find this topic distressing, please proceed with caution.
この記事は2019年の退所たいしょとそれに纏まつわる出来事について触れています。古傷をえぐる可能性がありますので、ご注意ください。

ERU’S UNSOLVED CASE: The "Least Harm" Diagnosis behind the 2019 System Failure 抱かかエル「未解決事件みかいけつじけん」：2019年のシステム不全ふぜん――自己犠牲じこぎせいという名の救命介入きゅうめいかいにゅう

I have been a fan of Johnny’s for 26 years. In the medical field, we speak of "surgical scars"—marks left by a necessary but painful intervention. In my history with this agency, I have seen it all: the messy departures, the forced smiles, the sudden disappearances of beloved idols. But there is one memory that remains an unhealed, deep-seated scar: the departure of Akiyama Taiga in 2019. For someone as diligent and obsessive as Taiga, seeing his career end over his first and only "scandal" is a trauma my brain still cannot digest. I am not angry at Taiga; my disappointment lies with a public and a system that failed to protect its most empathetic asset.

ジャニーズファンとしての26年間、数々のニュースを見てきましたが、今でも外科手術げかしゅじゅつの痕のように残っているのはMADEの秋山大河くんの退所たいしょです。あんなにストイックだった彼のキャリアが、最初で最後のスキャンダルで終わったことが、どうしても納得できないのです。
