Renowned voice actor and vocalist Mamoru Miyano brought his popular Nippon Broadcasting radio show to life on October 25, 2026, hosting the special live event with MAMO ~STAR~ at the iconic Yokohama Arena. Designed as an expansive collaborative platform where Miyano invites creators and performers to build unique stage experiences, the event was centered around the theme of "STAR"—a motif reflecting Miyano's major theatrical and musical endeavors throughout the year.
The event kicked off with Miyano delivering an energetic rendition of his track "Beautiful Night." Arriving on the upper stage tier in a full tuxedo, Miyano descended to the main floor before mounting a custom illuminated city bicycle dubbed the "Ryusei-go" to circle the arena floor. The opening sequence concluded with Miyano attempting a trampoline jump to grab a suspended star above the stage, establishing the theatrical humor and high-energy showmanship characteristic of his solo productions.
Unforgettable Collaborations
The program featured a diverse guest roster bridging comedy and contemporary pop music. The musical comedy duo Member joined Miyano to adapt their signature rhythm-focused manzai routine into a custom version tailored to Miyano's famous voice acting roles. Shortly after, breakout artist Kocchi no Kento took the stage for dynamic performances of "Kekka All Right" and "Goron to Doron," ending his set with a venue-wide dance performance to his viral hit "Hai Yorokonde" as the entire arena glowed green with penlights.
Comedy duo COWCOW also participated, performing volleyball and brass band sketches alongside Miyano in full gym uniforms. The comedic segments transitioned into a massive choral performance of "Tsubasa wo Kudasai," where the guest lineup joined forces with the Saitama Sakae High School Chorus Group and the entire audience to sing in unison.
Surprise Guest and Climax
A major highlight of the night came during the mountain-climbing comedy segment "Mindvogel Club." As Miyano ascended a projected mountain screen on stage, secret guest Tomohiro Kamiyama emerged from behind the set piece to wild applause. Reunited after their shared run in the stage play Akechiko!, the duo traversed the venue on moving carts while singing Miyano's "KissxKiss," before pairing up for a vocal duet of Yosui Inoue and Anzen Chitai's legendary classic "Natsu no Owari no Harmony."
The grand finale brought all featured talent back to the stage for a custom exercise routine titled "Atari MAMO Taiso," crafted by COWCOW to poke affectionate fun at Miyano's off-screen habits. To close the evening, Miyano led the arena in a collective jump during his track "Jump Shite Mite," enabling him to successfully retrieve the floating star that had eluded him during the opening act, bringing the multi-hour event to a triumphant conclusion.
