Towards the end of the song, members Matsui Jurina and Matsui Rena showed a surprise “kiss performance” which excited the fans. Rena turned bright red as she said, “We were unexpectedly close… I’m embarrassed.
The senbatsu members for “Kiss Datte Hidarikiki” were also announced at this event.

It’s a song with a different atmosphere than our usual songs. I want people to watch our performance,” Jurina stated and continued, “It was the first time Rena looked directly at me. Her kissing face was cute.
As SKE48’s first album will be released simultaneously with their new single, the girls are aiming to top both the Oricon single and album charts. Rena expressed, “It would make me happy if we could do it. Exceed AKB48? I think AKB will continue to do greater things, so we want to do things that will surprise our fans as much as possible.
SKE48 performed a total of 6 songs including “Gomen ne, SUMMER” and “Aozora Kataomoi” for 12,500 fans. Before wrapping up the event, the group also announced that they would be holding their 6th generation auditions.
