Super Dimensional Star Festival Sonic “TamaSonic” Kanno Concert PV
UPDATE: YouTube link added.
I think I died like a fan should while watching this. A Super Dimensional Star Festival Sonic Ticket site has opened with a Yoko Kanno video (direct link here). Watch and find out before reading ahead 
Viral hand signal, go!
I’m pretty sure this is Tim Jensen. “3, 2, 1, Let’s Jam!” “I like Maaya *blush*” Mr. Jensen, you win at life, but I know someone who will kill you for saying that.
A (cute-faced diva-voiced perky) challenger appears!
I did not see that coming.
Nanasen nanahyaku nanaju nana en… Lucky!!!

Was it in the animation? I don’t remember it in the animation, but I do remember this as I just saw it recently…

(Yes, I was the one who made this gif
) It’s blurry so it can’t be seen well, but it’s the “ru” part right?

“I died like a fan”
Me too, I’m all happy now (though I died)!
I asked my Japanese friends to buy a reservation, I really really hope they will succeed… *pray*
Oh and I’ve already seen the guy speaking behind Yoko Kanno, I think he was on a french interview of Yoko Kanno where she jumped into his arms (lol). I’ll try digging that up.

@fugue: oh gosh flashbacks from the animation here they come. That hand signal is also the mathematical sign for vectors, and well, you know in the animation…
@Yy: I think it’s Tim because there’s this bald guy in the Bebop DVD who looks just like that, and people told me it’s Tim XD
It’s at 4:55 minutes in this video
May 9th, 2009 at 12:54 am
So who did you have in mind Mai? I think all the guys at Maaya’s would be sending Tim death threats now.
May 9th, 2009 at 12:57 am
Stop it XD!! Argh I won’t be table to sleep for the coming days!
…
I love the ELM piano version
May 9th, 2009 at 12:58 am
ROTFLMAO, that promo video was hilarious. BTW mai, who were you referring to in the sentence, “I know someone who will kill you for saying that.” Hope it wasn’t me, because I thought Tim Jensen was hugely amusing.
May 9th, 2009 at 12:59 am
The winner is actually Kai, specifically (but if any of you guys other than him thought it was you… then my point is made) XD
May 9th, 2009 at 1:06 am
Oh good, so it wasn’t me… or was it… XD
I just watched the video again, oh man too funny!
May 9th, 2009 at 1:09 am
That video is so cute! I didn’t actually notice “Tim” behind her until he popped out. And May’n surprised me when she bounced in, lol.
Good luck with the tickets, Yyrkoon!
Lucky!! *v-sign*
May 9th, 2009 at 1:09 am
yes! the VECTOR hand sign! gosh, i returned my math to school or something
May 9th, 2009 at 1:09 am
I was half-expecting Maaya to pop out of nowhere too tsk XD
May 9th, 2009 at 1:13 am
Yeah, I thought that too when she said “I wonder what Maaya will be singing…” *cue for Maaya*
May 9th, 2009 at 1:14 am
If Maaya showed up, I think I would have fallen off my chair.
May 9th, 2009 at 1:16 am
Oh by the way, that hand signal is the “7″ in finger math. I used to do this in grade school

May 9th, 2009 at 1:20 am
*light bulb* OWHHHH :O
okay, the finger math “7″ makes perfect sense now. LUCKY!
May 9th, 2009 at 1:22 am
Gee, thanks Mai, I thought so
Jason, if you were thinking it you count too buddy.
May 9th, 2009 at 11:03 am
Oh my GOD I WANNA GO I WANNA GO I WANNA GOOOOOOOOOO *throws a tantrum on mai’s site* xDDD
Okay so I know she did Ed’s voice but it amazed me anyway to see such a cute voice coming out of her xDDD I’m so giddy and I don’t know why! It’s not like I get to go LOL. Any kind soul who can sponsor the whole site to go? ;P
Thanks for this, mai!
And last of all: LUCKY!
May 9th, 2009 at 2:50 pm
I hope to be LUCKY with the ticket reservation
This seems to be a lottery after all :’(
May 9th, 2009 at 3:09 pm
@Yyrkoon: I’m sure all of us are praying/crossing fingers for you to go!
May 9th, 2009 at 3:22 pm
@Naddie: she didn’t do Ed’s voice, but Ed was kinda inspired from her and her mannerisms. There are some Ed-evoking songs that were sang by Gabby though
Padupa padupa…
May 9th, 2009 at 4:22 pm
I Loved that video, Tim looks hilarious! I want to go to karaoke with him!
May 9th, 2009 at 4:52 pm
@mai: Ah thanks for clearing that up, I was trying to dig up that info again but failed haha.
May 10th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
Want. Need. Tickets. Now. Yoko. So. Cute. *dies*
May 11th, 2009 at 10:09 pm
Kyaaaaaaaaah Tim Jensen lol. He loves Maaya, I love him more XD

damnit Pulz. I think you’re on the money.
May 14th, 2009 at 7:06 am
Or maybe they’re trying to make their hands look like chick-prints? I think the yellow marks on the earth look the same as the ones on the CM2 CD:

May 14th, 2009 at 9:32 am
@Spoony: That’s what Pulz was referring to
May 14th, 2009 at 3:18 pm
Okay, I’m just stupid. I only just realised the yellow things on the earth are bird footprints, I thought they were planes or something, haha.
May 14th, 2009 at 4:30 pm
Haha ^__^;;
