SPACE DIVE!! 2020 Livestream from Pony Canyon Coming Soon!
I first wrote about the newest GUMI album from Pony Canyon back in June, and even managed to buy the said album myself! But just when I thought that that would be the end of my SPACE DIVE!! news to report, here we have an online concert for fans to enjoy!
GUMI 10th Anniversary LIVE
Granted, GUMI’s tenth anniversary was actually last year, but Pony Canyon created this project to celebrate not only the ten years we’ve spent with GUMI, but also as a preface to celebrate another ten years with her in the future!
And so that anyone anywhere can celebrate too, there will be a special livestream happening!
**UPDATE ON AUGUST 29 2020**
Now you can also watch the official SPACE DIVE!! livestream trailer here! :
Details
- Date and time: September 6th 2020, from 18:00 JST.
- Streaming platform: ePlus
- Duration: 120 minutes
Who will be performing?
- Main artist: Gumi
- Special guests: Otomachi Una and Camui Gakupo!
- Guesting VocaloP: 164, 蝶々P (ChouchouP), buzzG and YM
164, as you may already know, is the VocaP who produced songs such as 天ノ弱 (Ama no Jaku), which is featured on disc 1 of the SPACE DIVE!! album. They also produced the theme song for the project called “GALAXY（Under my identity)”.
Chouchou P’s song “心做し (Kokoro Nashi / Without a heart)” was also featured on the SPACE DIVE!! album!
buzzG is the producer for 星の唄 [reprise] (Hoshi no Uta / Star Song) a remastered version of the original made especially for this project!
YM didn’t have any songs featured on the SPACE DIVE!! album, but they are the producer for the super popular GUMI song 「十面相」/ “Jyuu Mensou” (Ten faces), and has used GUMI for plenty of songs which have been featured on other albums from Pony Canyon, making them a brilliant guest for the livestream.

How to buy the tickets
You’ll need to create an account for this, and that will require various information, including a Japanese phone number and Japanese residential address.
Registering as an e+ member
Start off by heading to this page to sign up:
This page explains everything to do with using eplus services, but for now all we need to do is make an account.
By clicking the pink「新規会員登録はこちら」(click here to register as a new member ) button shown, you’ll be taken to the “Terms of Service” page where you’ll need to scroll down and tick the box at the bottom to accept, and then click on the subsequent pink「同意する」(agree) button to continue:
Then you’ll be directed to this page here, where you can either sign in using one of the social media accounts listed, or you can input an email address (twice, to make sure you entered it correctly). Using a social media account is easier, but if you choose to input an email, press the 「メール送信」(send email) button below to get an email sent to you to confirm you signing up for an eplus account:
Next will be where you input details
- Email address (メールアドレス)
- Phone number (携帯電話番号) (must be a Japanese phone number)
- Alphanumeric password (パスワード) (twice)
- Name (名前) (In kanji – surname then first name)
- Name (In katakana – surname then first name)
- Gender (性別) (male or female)
- Date of birth (生年) (year)
- Japanese post code (郵便番号) (hyphens aren’t required):
Next, click on the black drop-down box at the bottom (住所とクレジットカード登録) to add address and credit card details. You’ll need
- To choose your prefecture (都道府県)
- The city (市区町村) (e.g Shibuya-ku Ebisu)
- The street address (番地) (full width)
- The room name and number (マンション/アパート名・部屋番号)
And now you add the credit card details, so that you can pay for any subsequent purchases. You’ll need:
- The credit card number (クレジットカード番号)
- Expiration date (有効期限) (month and year)
- Birth date listed on the card (生月日) (month and date)
- Security code (セキュリティコード)
Then finish by clicking 「確認」(confirm) to check over your details and finish account setup. That’s all I can help with for now in regards to this without actually creating an account myself.
Buying the ticket
Once your account is set up, you can head to this page in order to buy your ticket: https://eplus.jp/sf/detail/3305160002-P0030001?P6=001&P1=0402&P59=1
Here are the two options of tickets:
The first ticket (視聴券受付) is JUST for viewing the livestream, the second at the bottom (限定グッズ付視聴券) includes the muffler towel. Once you know which ticket type you’d like, click on the pink button below (申込む) that option to proceed.
This pop up is talking about whether you’ll actually be able to watch the livestream smoothly without any problems.
These livestreams are viewable on smartphones, tablets or PC, but please make sure to have the latest version of your browser if possible. Scroll to the bottom, tick the box and press the pink button (申込みへ) to proceed.
Note: After confirmation of payment, you will be sent a viewing URL by email. Only one ticket can be bought per transaction.
As shown above, make sure to select the 「1枚」/ “1 ticket” option.
If you’re not already logged in, make sure to log in with your account you just made to finish the transaction (ログイン画面へ).
Following these steps, you should be able to get to the point where you can finalise your purchase! Again, we at VocaSphere can’t help any further unless one of us actually buy a ticket, but I’ll add updates if we are able to!
**UPDATE ON AUGUST 21, 2020**
There is now an easier way to watch the livestream for international fans!
International fans can head to ZAIKO to grab their tickets now until 11:00pm on September 6th (SUN.), 2020 (GMT+9).
Note: you can only buy regular tickets to view the concert via ZAIKO, which means the ¥4000 ticket (with muffler towel) isn’t available via this service.
Additional notes:
- To purchase tickets, you will need to register a FREE ZAIKO account (follow this link to create a new account: https://ponycanyon.zaiko.io/register).
- You can pay by any kind of Credit Card, Paypal, Wechat pay or Alipay.
- Credit Cards from overseas issuing banks (not from JAPAN) are acceptable.
- You will also need to pay a service charge of ¥275 when buying your ticket.
- Depending on your chosen payment method, there may be an additional charge:
- The stream URL of this concert can only be watched when you are logged in with the ZAIKO account with a purchased ticket attached.
- The stream URL is linked to the ticket in your ZAIKO account only, so it is NON-WATCHABLE even you share the link to someone else.
**UPDATE ON SEPTEMBER 3 2020**
PONY CANYON is now hosting a retweet campaign! All you have to do is follow the official PONY CANYON Twitter account, and retweet the tweet shown below to be one of three people to win a SPACE DIVE!! muffler towel, signed by a VocaP featured in this livestream! You have until September 6th at 23:59 JST to enter.
**UPDATES FROM AUGUST 21, SEPTEMBER 1 2020**
We can also see what the 3D models for the show are going to look like! Don’t they all look super cool?
From September 1st, you can see the countdown to the live show on Pony Canyon’s official Twitter page!
Is that…GUMI’s anniversary outfit design in 3D model form??
Even Una is getting super excited for the performance!
Are you as excited as we are about this awesome new livestream concert? We hope that some of you will be able to enjoy it, but if not, I’ll highly recommend checking out the SPACE DIVE!! album and seeing what you think of it!
Thanks for reading!
