And I pray for a livestream or anything else to watch from home 🤞

 

It would be amazing to be there and watching it live. Although chances are slim for oversea fans, I am still hopeful. Who knows which lottery and ticket provider will be used this time, maybe we can register without Japanese phone number, credit card, address, etc. :fingerscrossed:

 

Otherwise, it's at 5pm JST, so not so bad for Europeans to watch the livestreams...:67638860:

Another article on RE_PRAY

I too booked a hotel in the “dream” section and I asked  :help sign: : what does “RE_PRAY” mean  :shrug: , I read the text and saw a mistake it was marked, at one point “2011 to 2012” it would be rather “2023/2024”  :disapproval:    and SATOMI must be on point to highlight Yuzu in sublime costumes :girlsigh:

Zero chance of seeing any of these but fervently hoping for an accessible live streaming of it - and reasonably hopeful of getting it after last time.

Yes to both of the above  :yes:

Yuzu is amazing  :worship:

Global Code worked quite well in Feb/March (in Germany), let's hope we'll get it or sth similar for the upcoming shows too  :smiley-angelic001:

 

Spoiler

A tiny bit of nitpicking - very reluctantly, so please don't 'bash' me  :smiley-scared003: 

(but you may throw tomatoes :scared0012:  , I promise not to duck away) :

 

What meaning is behind the word-combination "RE_PRAY" ? Was it perhaps meant to be "RE_PLAY" ? Especially in view of his reference to the world of games ?

Yes, I read the translations on Twitter and the explanation on "artexhibition-jp" , but I still don't get it   :scratch2:  :slinkaway:

 

About the show’s name choice in my opinion its probably re-play because of the game concept and living his skater life again but in this time as a professional. Unfortunately as we know in japanese there is no L so they made it re-pray just like the famous japanese rock group one ok rock because its originally one o’clock. also word of praying itself kinda makes sense because yuzu himself has a huge gratitude and respect for everything in his life and this is his own philosophy so i think because of that he decided to make a word game and wanted this duality in meaning. I want to add one last thing that i am so excited for this new tour’s concept and for this very possibly the new programs, costumes, choreography, music and show’s aesthetics in general. I hope everything goes as he wanted and worked for.

I read he meant to use it as a play on words: Re-Play (replay) for the gaming, and Re - Pray because he talks about weaving in other themes including prayers.

Global Code a plutôt bien fonctionné en février/mars (en Allemagne), espérons que nous l'obtiendrons également pour les prochains concerts.  :smiley-angelic001:

Un tout petit peu de pinaillage - à contrecœur, alors s'il vous plaît, ne me "dénigrez" pas  :smiley-fear003: 

(mais vous pouvez jeter des tomates :scared0012:  , je promets de ne pas vous esquiver) :

 

Quelle signification se cache derrière la combinaison de mots "RE_P R AY" ? Était-ce peut-être censé être "RE_P L AY" ? Surtout au vu de sa référence au monde du jeu ?

Oui, j'ai lu les traductions sur Twitter et l'explication sur "artexhibition-jp", mais je ne comprends toujours pas   :scratch2:  :slinkaway:

 

 

Same as you, good Global Code in France  :2thumbsup: and enjoy  :nod2:  its 3rd part of shows in November in EASY  :fingerscrossed:  and also throwing tomatoes (plus it's the peak of the ripe season  :space:) HELP on this "RE_PRAY"? (English also not easy for me) and  :thankssign:  :thanks:  ALIGATO PAMMI

I read that he wanted to use it as a pun: Re-Play (replay) for the game, and Re - Pray because it talks about integration into other themes, especially prayers.

 

 

:headdesk:  :peace2:  :animated-smileys-character-075:     

We only have one pronunciation for R and L in Japanese.  So, generally, RE-PLAY and RE-PRAY (both リプレイ in katakana characters) sound the same to our ears, unless the person is particularly sensitive to differences in sound (EDIT: or, they are often regarded as the same or confused). Taking this into consideration as well, I suppose Yuzuru wanted to include the meaning of "PRAY" in the show.

 

I'm not sure this idea is his or not, but I have been amazed by his being an excellent producer of himself :rolleyes:

I'll wait to hear how the lottery will be done, I would LOVE to go. If not, there is always (we hope and pray) livestreams and merchandise.

 

It occurred to me that given the ISU reporting Japanese TV are unhappy with the viewing figures for competitive skating, TV Asahi signing up to partner Yuzuru is... telling :hihi:

Same. I'd love to get a ticket, but those ticket lotteries basically make it impossible to enter as a foreigner

someone mentioned Yuzu announced PROLOGUE at 11:11, then when the clock moved to 11:12, he announced GIFT at PROLOGUE stage. Now, he announced Re-pray at 11:13, so this is the third solo show?

Everything is in is calculations 🤪

Thank you to  @bubbletea  and  @Pammi  and  @SuzyQ  for the explanations  :thanks:

Another slightly off-topic quote - this one might be just a bit harder to guess, I suppose, but let me give you a tiny tip:

it is from a mini-series remotely related to my previous literary quote.

 

Scene: after a sort of explanatory conversation :

 

Mr. X :    I confess I am non the wiser !  :shrug:

Miss Y:  No, sir. But you are better informed.  :wink2:

 

Hah! I thought Re_Pray sounds familiar, now I know I heard it from where :hihi:

 

One of Bleach's ending themes was titled Re:Pray (sang by the one and only Aimer). I do get where the difference comes from given the meaning, but still 😎

 

I'm fairly sure this is just a coincidence but who knows (also what if he gets Aimer to join the tour) :hihi:

 

Re:Pray is a great song tho, check it out

The scope and amount of your information are amazing <3 Thank you :thanks:

 

As Yuzuru says, "This "RE_PRAY" also includes ethics and values from the world of games, which is a big part of my experience," the show including the title seems to have so many metaphors from games, animes, and so on.

Cannot wait.

Anyway, we have to survive the bloodbath ticket battle first.  OK, Saitama looks to have the largest capacity :hachimaki:
