Morning Musume。’26 Sells Out Same-Day Tickets in Nagoya — 5ch: ‘Say What You Will, Musume Still Fills Seats’

From our other sites

The story

On September 23, the sellout of same-day tickets for Morning Musume。’26’s concert tour ‘Chou Heartful 11’ Nagoya show (Forest Hall, capacity 2,291) became a hot topic on a 5ch Hello! Project thread. Around the same time, Juice=Juice also sold out same-day tickets for both its matinee and evening performances at Nagoya’s Village Hall (1,146 seats), sparking a clash between pushback (‘Don’t just compare them when the capacities are different’) and defense (‘Tickets vanished instantly after a wave of fan-club lottery losers, so demand is well above capacity’). The thread also touched on the boost from Oda Sakura’s graduation and the news that Forest Hall is slated to close at the end of fiscal 2027.

With Juice, neither the matinee nor the evening show ever has same-day tickets left, you know

Village Hall — capacity 1,146 ← Juice=Juice
Forest Hall — capacity 2,291 ← Morning Musume。'26

Got it now, you clueless moron lol

Re: #70
Juice=Juice had a wave of fan-club lottery losers, then tickets vanished instantly on the ticket sites — simple math says demand is more than double the capacity

Re: #70
That fake, try-hard vibe I get from Juice
comes from exactly this kind of thing
3AnonymousSep 23, 2026 10:50
Juice=Juice actually had same-day tickets available for both the matinee and evening shows
4AnonymousSep 23, 2026 10:50
Just a simple question, but when a show 'sells out,' are they actually filling seats all the way up to the 4th floor?
5AnonymousSep 23, 2026 10:50
Doesn't look like any reinforcements showed up for ANGERME though

The Xiao fans who wanted to claim Aichi would be empty after Xiao quit are fainting and foaming at the mouth lol (Xiao — a member's nickname)

Re: #9
Pretty sure Makino's final Nagoya show sold out for both the matinee and evening
14AnonymousSep 23, 2026 10:52
Panda: 'Ahh, glad I ended up in Morning Musume.'
26AnonymousSep 23, 2026 10:55
For Juice=Juice, sold-out shows are so normal that nobody bothers making a fuss over one specific sellout when same-day tickets are available elsewhere on the tour

Re: #26
Sure, it's a homecoming for Ebata and Kawashima, but tomorrow's an ordinary weekday and it's sold out too
33AnonymousSep 23, 2026 10:59
Re: #23
It only just sold out thanks to the graduation boost, after all
38AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:01
Re: #33
Even though it's not her hometown this time, it's because of Oda's graduation, right?
36AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:01
But honestly, the setlist this time is kind of mediocre
though that's partly because spring's was just too good

Re: #36
How many times are you gonna write the same thing
42AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:03
LOVE Machine
Renai Revolution 21
THE Peace!

Are songs like these in the set?
44AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:05
Re: #42
Believe it or not, the classic old hits ('preservation society' songs, as fans call them) are sealed away this time
51AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:07
ANGERME's turn will come around again eventually too
Juice selling well was just a coincidence, after all
61AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:12
Re: #51
Juice had its members at their peak right when the best songs came along
when that all lines up, it sells
is ANGERME at its peak right now?
54AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:08
Say what you will, Musume still fills seats
which means Juice=Juice could move up to an even bigger stage
Century Hall or whatever it's called?
63AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:12
Re: #54
I think Sky Expo would suit Juice=Juice just fine
58AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:11
Isn't Forest Hall about to become unusable for renovations soon anyway?
64AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:13
Re: #58
Forest Hall is closing at the end of fiscal 2027
59AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:11


81AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:21
Sorry, but isn't the point that if Juice used Forest Hall, it would obviously sell out too?
84AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:22
Re: #81
Someone's trying so hard to steer the topic to this tour lol
88AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:24
This'll probably affect venue choices next year.
Right now all they can really do is push hard on Suzuki Moa, Nagano Momoha, and Nishimura Kinggori.
89AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:24
Musume. sold out all 6 Osaka shows in the first round without any trouble, so they're still selling well enough these days to fill halls just fine.
And from what I've seen at shows, it doesn't really feel like Oda is the sole top draw either.
91AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:25
Re: #89
I thought Oda was way out in front — so who else is strong? Panda? Riry?
94AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:27
Re: #91
Panda
tons of blue penlights out there for her
99AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:29
Re: #94
But Sapporo doesn't really sell well for her, does it?
103AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:30
Re: #99
Sapporo's a Sunday show, so it's true that touring fans can't make it back home, which hurts sales
if it were a Saturday, it would've sold a lot better
100AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:29
Isn't Moa-chan by far the most popular one in the 18th generation?
I don't really get the sense that Mesa is that popular
102AnonymousSep 23, 2026 11:30
Re: #100
Moa's way out in front

Background and Key Points of This Discussion

A ‘same-day ticket sellout’ means different things for different Hello! Project groups, depending on venue size and how the fan-club presale lottery played out. Morning Musume。’26’s Nagoya show was at Forest Hall (capacity 2,291), while Juice=Juice played the Village Hall (1,146 seats) inside the same Nagoya Congress Center — since the capacities differ by nearly double, it’s hard to compare the weight of each sellout directly. As pointed out in the thread, Juice=Juice’s same-day sellouts are often discussed alongside its tendency for tickets to vanish instantly, driven by the large number of fans who lost the fan-club presale lottery, while Morning Musume。’26 is also getting an extra lift from the demand around Oda Sakura’s graduation tour. Forest Hall is also reportedly set to close at the end of fiscal 2027, which could affect venue choices for future Hello! Project shows in Nagoya.
