JKT48 First Theater Live
It's finally happening.
JKT48 finally do their first theater.
So! I wasn't really planning to watch it, because the official said the ticket can be bought only by invitation and we must apply it by email. Being curious for their first theater live and because I've never really watch any stage of 48 family I decided to apply. I apply the ticket for myself and my sister, for Saturday and the first show. The day official will announce the lucky winner for the lottery I didn't got any email regarding the ticket so I thought it's not my luck. But somehow on Friday that email came! I don't know whether I'm being taken because they can't fulfill their quota or the email got stuck. I've decided to go and try it.
We arrived at Gd. Nyi Ageng Serang at around 13.45 and proceed to exchange the invitation for the ticket. Turn out the ticket for that day still available and many people just come and buy it on the spot. Not until 14.00 we already told to queue to get in. But there's no obvious reason for that. We just left queue in there and in the noon it's really hot waiting outside. There's a stand that selling merchandise of JKT48 and I'm proceed to there and my sister not coming to queue. For the merchandise there's fan, poster (group & each member), photo pack, sticker, t-shirt, light stick and else. Some price is not reasonable, how come they put Rp. 50.000 as the price for light stick!? The light stick they're selling is not the official one like AKB and it's the type that you use only for one time. I've decided to get the fan for Rp. 25.000, and I'm choosing Stella Cornelia fan because my sister like her. For 25.000 the fan is really not worthy, use it for a couple of time and the paper start to get crumple(?), I've seen a kid already broken his fan while waiting to get inside.
The line finally moving and we start to get inside one by one. When I was waiting to get inside I saw many family came to watch it. At first I thought how weird is that, turn out they were the family of the performing member. Remind me of how AKB48 first theater. I've heard people behind me there's Cindy parents. When it's my turn to get in my sister and I decided to take number 6 as our line. The system to enter the theater is after we get in we took one number from 1 to 10, after that the staff gonna decided by draw which number get in first, inside we can decide freely where we want to seat. My number get in after the fifth draw so we enter after four number. Luckily there's empty spot in the third line in the right section. We decided to take it because it still quite close to saw the stage. After we all get seated there's Aitakatta and Heavy Rotation playing to entertained. It got boring after some time.
After some time the theater finally started. All I can say is that they're really trying to make this a 48 theater. There's kage-ana before the show started and I've heard someone said that's Ghaida. There's also overture at the beginning, exactly same like AKB48 one but this time it said JKT48. Before the performance started they make circle in the middle stage. Oh and by the way they're doing Team B 3rd Stage (B3) "Pajama Drive". I've never watch any stage and all the song is unknown for me. Even Temo Demo no Namida that Jurina and Mayuyu sing in Kouhaku because I haven't finished watch it. So I'm only review the one that interest me the most.
I can't believe I said this but when the light start shining on them and they're making circle I really think they're cute. I started to feel excited even though I only know few people. By the end of the show I'm almost know all of them. They give 48 family feel and I like that.

I can't remember what I feel in the first part of the show before the unit song. Only hearing it once didn't really give me some impression. Maybe because I'm too busy watching the girls, I think they did good job while performing. All the costume used in this live is new!
Tenshi no Shippo
The song is quite cute. My attention goes to Cindy Gulla because I don't know how old she is but she look really small and childish.
Pajama Drive
Oh God, Shania look really cool performing this song. This song is like her solo song because she got so many lines, I know they're just following the original. I also ended up only watching Shania in this song.
Junjou Shugi
I've wondered whether they shipping the original costume to Indonesia or they're making new ones? I can't differentiate it. Sonya look great in here <3. I've wondered if she do anything to her hair because it look so good and smooth, same goes with Shania and Cleopatra I'm Jelly.
Kagami no Naka no Joan Arc
Wow badass song! Love all the costume use in here, and Ghaida also catching my eyes.
In second part of group song I don't know the title but Shania were center and when she said "Apa yang kau mau?", I'm stunned for a second lol, I have to find the original performance.
Wasshoi!
This song is supposed to be Wasshoi B! right? After Boku no Sakura there's some time before encore and with a slow song like that I'm getting sleepy. But this song is waking me up! Such a fun song, I also have to find the Team B version. I really love this song <3, my highlight of the show. I also love the choreography when their name called and they jump, so cute. The mix is J! J! J! Wasshoi!, really a spirit maker. They wearing t-shirt with JKT48 written and wearing jeans in here, I like that.
MC 1
They introduced themselves in this part. Ghaida said bye-bye when the performance just started lol. The topic in this MC is favourite food. I don't believe when they said they can eat fried chicken 8 or 9 pieces, well satay for 10-15 stick also unbelievable but still possible and Shania with Beby(?) ate nasi padang for second and half round is quite believable. This part went to competition who eats the most but I still can't believe it lol. I hate how some wota still yelling when the member going to talk, that only make them stutters.
That's my highlight of the show, now onto the member.
Cindy - She look like a child! Even Nabilah who is the youngest of the group look more grown up than her. Well Nabilah look mature than some member too. Some of the costume look oversize on her. But she look really energetic and that's great.
Shania - She got my attention that night. Her performance is great, and her dancing too. I can't explain it but I love the way she performed, her expression looks cool. She gave me impression that she's the tallest that day but when I saw her later she's the same with everyone else.
Sonya - Okay I admit I'm interested in her for another reason but her hair is nice~
Ghaida - Wow she give me impression of 48 member lol, she really loud and that's great. But I still can't shake weird feeling when I saw her. She's really famous between male wota.
Ayana - She really look sleepy! Is that the right word for "sayu"? But when she tied her hair up she looks different.
Thank you God for letting me watch this Satuday show. Turned out there's "surprise" after the show end only for this day which I can't believe. There will be handshake and photo with member. Woohoo I choose to take picture with Shania and my sister with Stella. I was stunned during the handshake because the staff really rushing it so I can't give proper expression while handshake and photo. And in my photo the staff took really unprofessional photo, Shania was blurred T__T. While the staff taking my picture with my phone there's also someone take it with DSLR, I really hope I can have his picture.
So that's it! My review of JKT48 first theater. Too bad the location is far from my place so I don't know when I'm going to watch it again.
