LOL. This is just so fitting for Shokotan that I can't help but laugh. Hope the fracture heals soon.

Reminds me of when Suzumura Kenichi threw out his back yelling "spirit evolution" during a recording of Digimon Frontier. Anime hyper

I hope she's OK, but glad to see they can continue the tour regardless of the injury.

Good ol' Shokotan. This is why we all love you.

I'm the sort of person who, as soon as a valid excuse pops up, will try to get out of a rough situation. But I really do admire how there's some idols that just keep on going for their fans regardless of how bad the situation. Like how Ayaka from MomoClo Z performed with a broken leg by getting wheeled up on stage in a giant robot costume.

I'm sure she doesn't want people to worry about her too much but even so I hope she gets better soon.

Further proof that humans can't pull off a Jojo pose without damage. xD

Pretty funny article, but good on her for continuing her tour!

Ah, she fell over and broke her tailbone.

Just reading the headline, I was thinking "how ripped do you have to be to break your own bones posing?"

I'm pretty sure Stand users are also born with full-body double-jointedness. Shokotan, how irresponsible.<3

You cant do a Jojo pose and expect to walk away unharmed.

Jojo is life!

Wow. I'm actually scheduled to see her show in Roppongi on this coming Friday (Halloween!). On one hand, it's cool she's still going to be performing, but on the other hand, she should probably be resting up until it heals. Sad

Holy crap, what an effin' marine! Good luck with that fracture, Eater of Kitties, Licker of TV Sets that Display Jotaro's Face.

And yeah, Jojo poses were not meant to be attempted by living humans. No really, they're cartoon people on a piece of paper, they can do things which we sadly can't.

Well that pose is on the ground. It looks like a very tough yoga pose. I too am wondering how she got a fracture doing that pose.
