Live Event Overview

When the show began, each of the Seiyuus introduced themselves to the audience while also using their Kanmusu voice lines. Saki Fujita was cosplaying as Akagi, Iori Nomizu cosplayed as Zuikaku and Uchida Shu cosplayed Warspite.

During the show the Seiyuus performed the usual greeting and welcomed everyone to the Zuiun Festival. Following after some introductions and a comical line coming from Uchida Shu asking if we can have a Swordfish Festival, the seiyuus began their "Drawing contest" where they competed against one another to see who could draw the best.

The following drawing battles took place:

• Tanibe Yumi vs Uchida Shu (Shu won)
• Iori Nomizu vs Yuki Yamada (Draw)
• Saki Fujita vs Ootsuba Yuka (Ootsuba won)

Following the draw battle, several stage hand brought in a sea lion into the stage which the Seiyuus interacted with while also promoting that there is a Sealion show that takes place in Yomiuri Land that they can go check out if they wish.

After this, began the KanColle musical session in which several Kongou-class cosplayers came out on stage and played various KanColle songs via violin.

Afterwards the Seiyuus came back on stage and got to eat various food that were a part of the Zuiun's Festival's attraction which they talked about and mentioned to the audience to look into getting if possible. They also tried to determine which food tasted the best in the process.

Following this the Seiyuus performed the Kanmusu Ondo dance on stage and told everyone they would be doing the dance at the Zuiun later on that day before one of the Seiyuus then performed a KanColle song.

Afterwards, the Seiyuus said thier thank yous and left the stage ending the performance.
