I'm loving this collaboration for many reasons...
Top reason: Nino's open-mouthed expression during the song.

"Oh! Didn't see that chord."

"Okay! Got it!"

"That was close!" No kidding, he was mouthing, "危ねえ!" throughout the entire performance! We love you too, Nino.

More "That was close!" mouthing.

Nino messes up a note on his "solo" here, but kinda laughs it off.

Getting into the groove...

"That was seriously a close shave!"

End of performance and Nino gives his biggest fanboy smile EVER.

This collaboration was impromptu, and Takamizawa literally arrows Nino to play before the performance was due to begin. This explains why Nino was looking at the chords all the time and basically freaking out through 90% of the performance. Well done, Neen~!

I can't read Nihonggo but I remember the melody so I'll just link some of them. Sorry I can't recommend properly.

Random fandom collision: Takamizawa complimented Nagase's guitar skills in a tv show and I want to kiss the old man right there. Ha ha. He's in Kinki Kids tv show so this man is like my rock god-JE connection.
Too long, sorry. I talked too much.DX

Date: 2012-08-27 08:58 am (UTC)Not yet but I'm looking for a cut of that segment. I'm trying to pull this crazy stunt of watching the entire 24 hr tv and I have yet to reach Jun's task.
I'm cheating little by little by watching the cuts already uploaded. Will get back at you when I reach that part. :D

Date: 2012-08-27 08:54 am (UTC)I cheated a bit when I should be watching 24 hr tv in order but yeah can't resist this collaboration. XD
If I were Nino, I'd be scared witless to be asked to play without much preparation. You gotta love that boy and his professionalism. *hugs*
I like that The Alfee were guests in a segment for 24hr tv. I found out that they also released an album this year. Will hunt for it.
