Japan had some truly wild physical sets for performances back in the 80’s! Here are some of the most memorable ones I’ve been able to hunt down videos or pictures of ❤️

I’ve only been able to find a video of this ‣ performance once, but I’m absolutely obsessed with the visual。

Another elaborate cabin set, this time for Kikuchi Momoko’s ‣ (with a literal “love letter” written in the snow!)
I love love love the hyper-realistic sets they made for some 80’s performances. This one for Watanabe Minayo and her song “Yuki no Kaerimichi” is just wild—they made her an entire house and backyard!

I love this little space station they created for ‣. The little robots putzing around in front of her always make smile too. I’m such a sucker for this retro future aesthetic.
This one’s a link since the embed obnoxiously autoplays. I think about this set so often… The silver confetti from the ceiling while she stares into the camera is chef’s kiss ✨ ‣
The legendary photo album set for ‣!

This stage isn’t too elaborate, but I really love the beach sand effect on the floor! It’s a perfect match for ‣.
This is easily my favorite performance of ‣! I love the massive jazz club they made for her, and of course Akina is stunning in that outfit 🤩
