1. Live
The purpose of calling is to add atmosphere to the concert, interact with the idol live, and inspire the idol's fighting spirit.
2. Uniformity
Call is about neat and tidy movements, slogans, props, a mature fan club will be released in the fan community corresponding to each song call book, the scene will also have experienced old fans to drive everyone to play call, which is called "call leader". The first is the "call leader", which is known as the "call leader".
Learning how to make a call is often the first lesson for new fans. If you call in the wrong place and disrupt the lineup, you'll be blacklisted by the fanbase.
3. Rhythm
Calling is not simply waving a glow stick and shouting at the idol. call This is usually done by a fan with a musical foundation, who will design slogans and movements according to the lyrics of the idol's work, and the urgency and slowing down of the tune, and then iterate it over and over again in the field experiments in an attempt to blend in perfectly with the idol's work. For example, the SNH48 X team's "Flag of Dreams" public performance call book was revised 12 times.
Calling is a physically and mentally demanding and self-indulgent activity, and it's not too much of a stretch to call it a "sport," with an enthusiastic call sometimes being even more colorful than the performance itself. An upgraded version of calling is wota art ("ヲタ 芸"), which, if you haven't seen it before, can be thought of as a trendy and cool version of square dancing with fluorescent sticks. Many concerts prohibit audience members from playing wota 艺 because of its large range of motion. If there's anyone around you who knows how to play wota art, 99.9% of them are fans.
