AKB48 Charity Song [Tenohira ga Kataru Koto] + Performance Setlists


To mark the second anniversary of the Touhoku earthquake and tsunami, that occurred on 11 March 2013, AKB48 released a new song [Tenohira ga Kataru Koto] on 8 March 2013 as part of their ongoing [Dareka no Tame ni ~ What can I do for someone?] project. The song is available to download for free on their official website: http://www.akb48.co.jp/darekanotameni/ and a donation page has been set up  to support the recovery efforts (click here for the official English donation page).

On 9 March 2013, AKB48, SKE48, and NMB48 performed as part of the [Shinsai Kara 2-nen 'Ashita e'] Concert, broadcast by NHK. They performed the following songs:

AKB48 - Heavy Rotation, Kaze wa Fuiteiru
SKE48 - Nakama no Uta, Banzai Venus
NMB48 - Dareka no Tami ni, Nagiichi
AKB48 + SKE48 + NMB48 - Tenohira ga Kataru Koto, Sakura no Hanabiratachi
Hana wa Saku (featuring Iwata Karen)

Iwata Karen was one of the performing members for [Hana wa Saku] the song she was part of released last year for the earthquake recovery charity project. [Sakura no Hanabiratachi] had it's lyrics changed for this occasion.

On the day itself, most of AKB48 and some of the sister group members, performed all over some of the disaster struck regions. See this post by T-Motion@jphip for details and pictures of those events.

Meanwhile at their respective theatres, each group performed a special setlist. You can see these (and the member line-ups) below. For the sister groups, most members were on stage, although for AKB48, it was mostly just the kenkyuusei. The Live On Demand recordings of these shows are downloadable for free on DMM.com for the next 30 days, however that section of the website is region-locked to Japan.
