My memory on today's seats is pretty hazy, because all I can think of when I think of Day 4 is the amazing guest.... but anyways, I'm pretty sure it was on the arena again like on Day 1!

01. Vitalization
Today when Nana was making her way down the ramp with her Harley Davidson, her crew was slightly late in bringing her to a stop (there was a cable attached to the back of the motorcycle they were lowering her down the ramp on) causing her to jerk pretty badly into the handlebars when they suddenly pulled... but even through all that she kept singing Vitalization like it was no big deal. This woman really lets nothing bring her down.
02. Unchained World
03. Sacred Force
MC1
Welcome to LIVE GATE! This time Nana brings up the weather and how good it has been for all of LIVE GATE so far and that her weather power increased. Apart from that, it was the same stuff as the previous nights.

05. WAKE UP THE SOULS
06. HOT BLOOD
Cherry Boys -showcase
As per usual, Kado-D plays DISCOTHEQUE on the sax. Itaruvich played drums. Tom-kun played Fun Fun☆People this time around and even remembered the name - SURPRISE (I think he really likes this song and it shows xD)! Yutapon played SUPER GENERATION on the piano, but he took a while to start because he forgot for a moment how to play it. Cho-san is back and played the acoustic guitar. Ken once again pretended to be "playing" the violin. Fire played bass. Martin continues his rapping and Ryutan did his dancing with Team Yo-Da.
Outfit #2 - Casual Checkers
07. RUSH&DASH!
MC2
Mawatte! as per usual. Nana does the mou ikkai with Cho-san. He tries to run away, but Nana tells him to come back and play what he played in the showcase again. It was something like "Garagara generation (Kansai no obachan)". Cho-san had apparently also played something else in the rehearsals so Nana had him play that too - it was "Don't be long study edition". Nana then bugs Kenny next. She says Kenny needs to play something else before the end of the seven days and then followed up with the thought that she should challenge herself to play more instruments again from now on... but mumbles then that her songs are so hard and fast. She then tries to get away with attempting just a ballad on a new instrument, but everyone in the audience gives her a big no no. She has no choice but to promise to do awesome songs whenever she decides to challenge herself again... oh snap.
08. Phantasm
09. TRY AGAIN
Team Yo-Da -showcase
Outfit #3 - Sexy Lace
10. GLORIA
11.Koi no Yokushiroku
Oh.... ohhhhhh! I was prepared to lose GUILTY tonight, but didn't think I would be getting my other favorite then instead. I'm really happy about this! If I'd still get my HIGH-STEPPER again I'd be in full dance song bliss.
MC3
Nana mentions the gate connection to the Yo-Da audition again. I caught it this time, think the word was Touryuumon? Like, "gateway to success"? Think its origins might come from the Chinese [legend] / [proverb] of the Dragon's Gate, but I could be wrong. Nana also tells us finally that the narration of the Yo-Da intro movie is done by TOMMY (who sang the [first opening of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure])... Oh! She mentioned this now, because she heard a rumor that he is here tonight and then he is shown by the cameras on the big screens. Turns out we walked right past him when we came in, but didn't stop to think who it might be... just thought he was dressed pretty uniquely. xD
Nana also talks about the front cover of MUSEUM III and how amazing it is that she already made the third one, even though making the first one was already a lot of work. She apparently didn't expect to keep getting so much work back then, so now she is stuck with the concept she came up with for the first MUSEUM. Oh and MUSEUM III is now on the weekly Oricon chart at #2, banzai banzai banzaaai! She starts calculating how many singles she would have to release to make a fifth one and comes to the conclusion it would be over 90. She reveals that she has already decided the colors till the fifth MUSEUM album. And, coincidentally, the next song is from MUSEUM III.

Who is it going to be tonight???
Outfit #4 - Elegant Blue
14. Eden feat. Chris Hart
OK HOLY SHEEEEEET! Since the BD/DVD has already come out I guess most of you have already gotten the chance to hear this, but damn it blew me away on this night. I thought I was already getting excited for the duets with the last one, but holy shit now I am truly into it. Eden is a really hard song to pull off I feel and Nana and Chris were doing it so perfectly. I got goosebumps from start to finish, which just amplified every time they got to the chorus.
MC4
Nana and Chris talk about how they've bumped into each other at MUSIC FAIR and NHK, and then even collaborated at Hibari 7 Days. Nana tells us that she LINE'd Chris about the LIVE GATE performance and asked if he wanted to do it. Chris of course agreed and kept saying how happy he was to be there. They mention how there are a lot of anime fans overseas (also Nana fans, he-hellooo :3). Chris also comments on the Golden Gate Bridge stage setup and how it makes him feel very nostalgic, since he is from San Francisco. They say they talked a lot during rehearsals, especially since Chris got a puppy recently and they could do a lot of doggie talk with both of them being dog owners.
After Chris left, Nana did a brief recap of the previous guests. Then she says next is time for a very atsui song.
15. TESTAMENT
16. Rock Ride Riot
Outfit #4 - Revamped
17. STARTING NOW!
18. DISCOTHEQUE
MC5
Time for the last song! Nana talks about the challenge of doing a seven day live. She says that before coming on stage she is super nervous, but gets energetic when coming out on stage... aaaand this effect seems to accumulate each day. She ends with the usual statement that the next song had to be this one of course.
19. POWER GATE
Today's special calls are focusing on which clubs people attended in high school. I missed most of those, but the first one was the literature club.
Encore call!
Man, I still can't stop thinking about today's collaboration, it really was something else. Ahhhh!

Shassu! Nana thanks everyone for listening to her baka radio show for 16 years now again and brings up all the batsu game shenanigans.
Last song is one that opened many new doors for her. Mishi-P was like "why don't you try composing", so this is the first song she composed like 12 years ago. It was a new page for her. She wants to share those feelings tonight with us.
22. SUPER GENERATION
