Reader’s Question:
Is it okay to bring a boy to a UtaPri movie or concert? I’ve recently become a fan of UtaPri and I’m planning to attend more events in the future. My boyfriend has expressed interest in joining me for the next event. However, since UtaPri is aimed at a
female audience, I’m concerned that some other fans might not be comfortable with it. I’d appreciate any advice on this!
Bringing Your Boyfriend to an UtaPri Event
Hey there! I totally get where you’re coming from regarding your boyfriend joining you for the UtaPri movie or concert. It can feel a little daunting at first, especially since UtaPri is primarily aimed at a female audience. But let me share a little story that might put your mind at ease. A while back, I decided to take my boyfriend to an idol concert that was heavily attended by female fans. I remember he was a bit hesitant at first, expressing concerns about being the only guy in the crowd. But I reassured him that it would be fine, and hey, I was excited for him to experience the fun with me! When we arrived, I remember us getting there way too early, like an hour before the doors opened. We ended up indulging in way too many snacks from a nearby convenience store while we waited. I think we were the only ones in line munching on chips and onigiri, while everyone else was chatting about their favorite characters and songs. It was a bit awkward, but it made for some funny memories! As the crowd started to fill in, I noticed my boyfriend looking around and realizing he wasn’t the only guy there. It was like a light bulb went off for him! The atmosphere was so welcoming. I even saw some fans striking up conversations with him, sharing their excitement about the event. By the time the concert started, he was fully immersed in the experience, singing along to the songs and laughing at the funny moments on stage. What really surprised me was how much he enjoyed it! He even started picking up on some of the manzai humor from the performances, which was a huge win in my book. We left the concert with him saying he couldn’t wait to go to another one, and that made me so happy. So, honestly, I think bringing your boyfriend along could be a great experience for both of you. People at these events usually appreciate anyone who loves the music—regardless of gender. Plus, it’s always fun to share those moments with someone special, right? I’d love to hear if any of you have similar experiences or tips on bringing friends or partners to events like this. Let’s share some laughs and stories in the comments!
