* Btw Rena Uezono joined the roster of figure skaters sponsored by SkyCourt – Miwa Nishida (who is now SkyCourt’s president and whose parents founded the company) was a contemporary of Rena’s coach, Mihoko Higuchi:
- Part of the Hyoen-cast (Dai, Kana, Akiko, Marie, Eliana and Takuro) was spotted together at Kai Hasegawa’s gospel-concert in Yokohama yesterday. A short fan report:
A concert featuring Kai Hasegawa from Yokohama. The power of gospel music was amazing! Daisuke, Kana, Marie, Eliana and other Hyoen-members came to watch.
As I was heading towards the exit after the concert, I saw the Hyoen-gang gathered in the lobby (pretending not to notice, of course) and I only saw her/him [not sure, if the fan is referring to Kana or Dai] for a few moments before he/she passed by, so I couldn't make out his/her expression with the deep hat on, but I was a little relieved to see him/her in the company of the Hyoen-members. The theme of the concert was ‘You'll Never Walk Alone’. The audience was encouraged to clap, stand up, wave their arms and sing along, which they did with joy. The atmosphere was full of positivity and warmth. I was glad that at this timing, he/she was able to participate in a concert with the solidly bonded Hyoen friends, with whom he/she shared the good times and the bad, and with whom he/she created a miracle, in an atmosphere where only happiness exists.
This fan spotted Akiko and Takuro among the Hyoen-gang:
Everyone who worked with Kai on #Hyoen was there, and I was excited to see them lined up at the merchandise booth!
Takuro was there too, and he stood out because he's so tall.
Also, I didn't know who the guy with the pinkish hair was, but he was awesome.

Akiko also briefly reported on the concert:
- As reported previously in Dai’s fan fest, Kana and Dai were invited to a preview screening of the movie “Phantom of Ranpo“ by mystery novelist Soji Shimada (the movie is based on a series of his short stories) when he attended one of the Hyoen-shows as a spectator.
From film producer Jun Akiyama’s blog feat. several pictures with Kana and Dai at the event on 26 June:
Machine translation:
From July 26th,
#Phantom of Ranpo
will be released nationwide
#DaisukeTakahashi
#KanaMuramoto
#Kanadai
The pair watched it at the preview screening!!
Thank you to the main cast MoeYuuki and the connection with SojiShimada!!
What did you think of Phantom of Ranpo?
I was a bit nervous, but "expressing without being bound by the framework of common sense", "there is no limit to the imagination of people", we talked about these themes even after the screening with Shimada-sensei.
Thank you very much for watching to the two Kanadai members who have continued to fight as artists on the world stage‼
While Soji Shimada was talking with DaisukeTakahashi a new story with a figure skater motif came to him!!
And Daisuke Takahashi has just announced that he will be making his screen debut as an actor in the movie "The City of Warehouses," set in his hometown of Kurashiki, Okayama Prefecture. I'm sure he will go beyond the framework of a figure skater and become a big star!
Also, Kana Muramoto is from the same hometown as Yuriko Nakai and me! It seems like a new story has started to move within Nakai's mind. I always think that our connection is a miracle.

Yuto also debuted his new Kana choreographed SP at the event – the titles of the music pieces still seem to be unknown though:

I read that Kana's solo costume is blue and that the program shows off her skating skills, but couldn't find any information on her music. Dai skates to a piano piece.

and see Stephane dancing wonderfully to other people's songs
Arakawa-san's professional choreography was definitely Kana-chan's
I'm glad they kept working and improving together as pro skaters and that Dai now looks comfortable even during lifts
