The video shows him and the others dancing before a crowd. The song is called "KEEP OUT" and its lyrics hit on all the usual themes: personal struggle and overcoming adversity, tasting forbidden fruit, and taking the listener to paradise. As usual, it's a group performance, but as usual Hiyori has some solo lines.
And as usual the choreography is kind of sus, with lots of pelvic thrusting. But you know what they say: if it ain't broke, don't fix it!]
[ Elan mostly looks a little bemused, although he's apparently enjoying the show (such as it is on Y*utube). He sits up a little to watch, snorting at some of the pelvic thrusting. OK, it's not a bad show. Pretty good, honestly. ]
I'd ask about the performance, but it's all for the fans, huh?
[ He cocks his head, watching as the group goes through the choreography. ]
How many times do you need to practice the little stepping around one another bits?
[Hiyori, for his part, is completely shameless as they sit there watching the performance. He pauses Y*utube before it can autoplay the next video and smiles at Elan.]
Everything we do is for fans! But we all have our own reasons for going onstage, too, of course.
[As for that second question:]
Lots! We're known for never making mistakes, but to tell you the truth, we do mess up during rehearsals. That's also part of being an idol: putting in so much effort that everything you do looks effortless.
[There's that whole saying about how people don't see a swan's legs kicking below the water. Only a beautiful bird gliding above. He remarks,]
I'd offer to show you, but I guess there's not much room for dance practice in here. Doesn't it make you want to get up and dance, though?
Yeah, as fun as it would be to get a private show, there's not exactly a lot of space for that kind of thing. Maybe I'll take you up on that another time.

You're right, I do know! It's exciting to see a new side of someone you like, isn't it~? ♪
[That's not quite what Elan said, but oh well.]
Though if you want a taste right now, we can always switch from the travel program to watching one of my concert videos.
[Of course he's enough of a narcissist to suggest this.]

[ He gestures and then retrieves the controller, offering it to him. ]
Show me something.

[And then he uses the remote to browse Y*utube or whatever equivalent they're using.
He scrolls some videos, a mix of live performances and music vids, before he settles on one of the official Eden channel's most recent uploads.]
I don't think I've sent you our newest single yet, so here it is!
[And then he presses play on this funky beat.

[ It does sound nice. ]
