<h3> Something wrong with Genta Matsuda at a concert?</h3>
<p> Travis Japan held a concert &#8220;Travis Japan Concert Tour 2026 &#8216;s travelers&#8221; in Fukuoka Prefecture from May 5 to 6, and on May 6 there were two performances, one in the afternoon and one at night.</p>
<p> Since his major label debut in October 2010, Matsuda has been very active in variety shows and TV dramas, and his &#8220;silly&#8221; character has become his big break. He has previously confessed to having an ear problem, and fans have voiced their concerns.</p>
<p> According to reports from fans on social networking sites, Matsuda left the stage during the MC session to use the &#8220;restroom. When he came out again, he was not dancing as usual, and he was wearing a hat and sunglasses at the end of the show, which made it difficult to see his facial expression.</p>

<p><span class="strongInContent"> There were times when Genta looked pale when he came out for the last time,&#8221; &#8220;I wondered if he was wearing sunglasses to avoid the stimulation of the lights or if he didn&#8217;t want to show himself out of shape. I was worried that I might fall down. With the support of the members, she eventually managed to get through the performance.</span></p>
<p> These SNS posts spread, and many people expressed concern about Matsuda&#8217;s health. However, after the show, member Kanya Yoshizawa (30) began live-streaming on his personal Instagram account.</p>
<p> He read a comment, &#8220;Moto-chan, are you okay? He read out the comment, &#8220;Moto-chan is fine, she is fine!　So there is no need to worry. Anyway, your supportive voices give me strength, so I don&#8217;t need to worry just for your support. I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll be fine.&#8221; &#8220;You were talking normally after the show. I was probably just a little tired, but if I take a rest, I&#8217;ll be fine. I&#8217;m taking it easy today and now,&#8221; he said, to the relief of the viewers.</p>

<p><span class="strongInContent"> On the other hand, Matsuda was not able to give his best performance at the March 11-12 Aichi concert, saying that he had a back injury. He updated his members&#8217; blog on the evening of March 11, saying, &#8220;I&#8217;m really sorry I couldn&#8217;t perform as usual. I am truly sorry.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Although she was told to rest, she wrote, &#8220;I understand that this is the only performance for the audience,&#8221; so she said, &#8220;The reason I danced the second half of the show is because I wanted to do it now. It may not have been easy for her to return to the stage at the Fukuoka performance, but she may have been trying to cheer herself up for the sake of the fans who had come to enjoy the performance.</span></p>

<h3>Matsuda suffers the fate of a successful idol</h3>
<p> In May of last year, Matsuda appeared on a fortune-telling variety show &#8220;Suddenly, Can I Tell Your Fortune? (Fuji Television Network) in May of last year, she revealed that something had been wrong with her ears since last year. He revealed that he was aware of the reason for the problem, saying that it was due to fatigue and stress.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Matsuda also starred in a drama &#8220;Kara-chan to Shito-san to,&#8221; (8 episodes), which became available on Prime Video on March 28 this year, in which he starred opposite Teru Iwamoto (32) of Snow Man. He played the lead role.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> From June to August of this year, he is scheduled to play the lead role in his first solo stage production, &#8220;Ore Bushi&#8221;. She is such a successful idol that she has been chosen to be a regular on the noon variety show &#8220;Poka Poka&#8221; (Fuji) on Mondays, while also working with the group.</span></p>
<p> In response to this situation, some fans commented, &#8220;Genta-kun, you&#8217;ve been stressed out,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Gentai, I wonder if your body is suffering from stress. I&#8217;m worried about your ear problems, too. I&#8217;m also worried about your ear problems.</span><br>
<span class="strongInContent"> [Joon] I hope you will give yourself time to get checked out at the hospital for your physical ailments. Gonta-kun, don&#8217;t push yourself too hard.</span><br>
<span class="strongInContent"> [Joon&#8217;s office staff should properly take Genta to the hospital. I think there is a possibility that the ear problem was left untreated, and anyway, they are making Genta work too hard.</span></p>
<p> And the office is also being asked to do something about it.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> Amidst the outpouring of concern for Matsuda, he uploaded a blog on May 7. He explained that the reason for his performance on the second day in Fukuoka was that he had not been able to &#8220;adjust his mind and condition&#8221; properly, and apologized to the fans who came to the event. At that time, he himself was anxious about whether he would be able to return to the stage, and honestly confided, &#8220;I was scared, too, lol.</p>
<p> I hope that the next performance in Chiba (May 22-24) will be the best they can do and put the fans&#8217; worries to rest.</p>
