Nogizaka46’s Shiraishi Mai appeared at the beginning of the Day 1 17th Tokyo Dome Live special distribution on YouTube

On the Nogizaka46 YouTube channel, three days of the “Manatsu no Zenkoku Tour 2017 FINAL! in Tokyo Dome – Tokubetsu Haishin” are being streamed on YouTube.

Day 1 was streamed on Tuesday night and in a surprise appearance, both Shiraishi Mai appeared (as did Ikuta Erika, who was also a guest).

Shiraishi said, “Hello, this is Shiraishi Mai. How are you? Most of the time while spending time at home, I am spending time cooking, watching TV and sometimes playing games at home, too. What I wrote in the blog the other day was true, I was planning to hold a graduation concert at Tokyo Dome for three days from today. Due to the situation, I was unable to. But I’m going to look back on how things were like at Tokyo Dome a few years ago from today during those three days. I’m going to look back watching this video when I first stood in Tokyo Dome in 2017”.

Shiraishi Mai was originally scheduled to graduate with the Nogizaka46 2020 Tokyo Dome performance which was supposed to be on May 5-7 but her graduation date was postponed due to the spread of the novel coronavirus in Japan.
