Wow, I'm surprised they didn't stop the concert for even a second... Did the other people just not notice or did they kind of ignore it because staff were already attending to the fan?

Is the stadium going to pay for his bills? I know here in America they would be liable for not keeping maintenance up properly

I wonder if it was a Wota. I can only picture him dancing with his silly headband and glowstick as the light fixture comes crashing down on him Laughing

Seriously though, I wonder if he'll receive any kind of compensation. the Japanese aren't big on lawsuits.

In Issai Gassai (B side of Yumesekai Maxi single CD) Haruka sings about kissing the boom boom. If she kissed the boo boo I am sure it would be all better Smile

I love her songs and would gladly be hit by a twenty kilo light fixture to see her perform!

Hm, you know, I am very curious about insurance and liabilities in Japan. I like to know more about those as in how it work in Japan.

I would hope that the stadium preemptively pays for the costs of the injured person, so as to avoid a lawsuit and/or bad PR.
