I heard a shout such as "Shogen-chan is great!" When the air ride started together, the audience was excited. Shogen-chan, swinging both hands in the air and smiling. It's going to be a big deal. There are many people who started preparing for the return after the air ride. Well, there's still a "Ozume" act, but...
