Dance Battles with Nogizaka46!
Now, Dance Battles has begun. Thank you for your cooperation.
It's been a while, hasn't it?
It's been a while.
Yes, it has.
"Kaki" is a drama with many songs, but I've watched all of them.
Thank you.
Did you call me "Kaki" just now?
Yes, I did.
Oh, you called me "Kaki-kakekko" just now.
No, no.
I totally forgot about "Kaki-chan".
"Tsutsutsutsu" is "Tsutsutsu-chan".
Oh, "Tsutsutsutsu".
This week's guest is B-boy Taichi-san.
Let's get started.
You don't wanna miss Taichi's dance moves from the B-boy.
Here we go!
Is there anyone who can speak English?
Yes, there is.
Taichi-kun.
Hello.
This program is brought to you by DIP Co., Ltd.
Last week, KOSEI 8ROCKS finally won for the first time in this season in the D.League.
We haven't won in a while.
That's rare.
KOSEI 8ROCKS.
This time, we're going to have a completely different battle.
Let me tell you about the format.
Today is CYPHER LAND for the first time in the D.League.
It's always a showcase format.
But today, it's a one-on-one or two-on-two battle format.
The showcase we always do is where we practice with eight people and show it to the audience.
The battle called CYPHER is improvised music.
We improvise the atmosphere of the place and the skills we have.
Improvisation is difficult.
Improvisation is also difficult for us.
CYPHER is a freestyle battle format where multiple people compete for skills in a circle created by multiple people.
It is also said to be a memory of breakdance and is a genre that can be called a battlefield for Taiji.
It started from here.
You can't lose there.
Unlike usual, there is a battle stage in the center.
They fight in a huge circle surrounded by a large audience.
For some reason, Taiji rubs his body against the floor.
As it is, he falls and rubs his back.
Other dancers do the same.
What is this?
I'm not taking it.
When we arrive at the venue, we check the floor.
B-boys usually put their heads on the floor once.
They also put their backs on the floor.
They also check the texture of their clothes and how they bite.
They come up with skills they can't do.
The strategy and improvisation change there.
It's interesting.
For dancers who slide, turn, and slide on the floor, checking the floor is essential.
It's a common sight at a battle venue.
This battle is a total of five rounds.
The winning team is decided by the total points.
Three people from each team will participate in a solo battle.
A duo of two people from each team will participate in a solo battle.
Three people from each team will participate in a duo battle.
Finally, for the first time in the D.League, Taichi appears in a cypher battle.
Taichi, go!
Next is...
Kosei and Rush!
What?!
I'm surprised.
Taichi receives the opponent's team's technique and hits it from his head.
This is a B-boy-specific battle that everyone is used to.
He received it with his shoulders.
That must hurt.
It must hurt a lot.
This is professional.
What is he doing?
Wow!
The trio is exhausted.
They show off their techniques one by one in their gorgeous formations.
Wow!
This is amazing.
This is really a breakdance.
Wow!
Wow! Amazing!
Amazing.
OK!
And all five rounds are over.
The winner of the first cypher round in the D.League, who cannot lose as a B-boy, is...
The winner is...
Go!
Cyber Agent Zushi!
Cyber Agent.
He's strong.
As expected of him.
Cyber Agent...
Fourth place.
This is difficult.
This is tough.
Thank you for your hard work.
You look happy.
We did what we wanted to do and we have no regrets.
Taichi has no regrets even though he lost the fight.
There is a big reason for him to change his mind.
I was able to participate in the preliminary round which is the closest to the Olympics.
I hope I can participate in the next round as well.
I am nervous and I don't know if I can make it in time.
Thank you for your support.
You don't have to be nervous.
Next time, Taichi will participate in the breakdance national competition.
It was an impromptu battle, wasn't it?
It was a little different.
I move a lot in manzai.
Let's check the floor.
Let's check the floor of the theater.
We don't use the floor.
Let's check the floor.
That's common.
Is there anything you always do before the show?
It's like a routine.
I don't know if it's a song, but I pat the members' backs.
Like cheering up?
Yes.
I think Kyosho is too strong.
Before the show...
Be careful of Kyosho.
Next week, a special dancer will appear in the studio.
She dances acrobatically.
