This post brings together every Valkyrie Anniversary Mini Talk!

5th Anniversary (2020)

The 5th Anniversary is themed “Walk with your smile.” This theme reflects the fact that it is the first anniversary following the first Big Update. In this context, it symbolizes that, despite everything that happened in the previous era, they will continue moving forward, accompanied by the Producer’s smile.
Each Mini Talk is named after the Unit's initial song, in this case is "Miwaku Geki."
For some reason, both the Mini Talk answers give the same response!

Miwaku Geki

Hehe, “Miwaku Geki” is real wonderful, isn’t it?

Bein’ controlled like Oshi-san’s marionette makes me feel so happy♪

Marionette?

Eeh, of course I’m human. That was just, ya know... a figure of speech or somethin’...

Honestly. If you call yourself even a bit of an artist, stand tall. Without confidence, you can’t create anything

Oh, well... Once the curtain rises, we will control the world

I’ll show the unrefined what the art truly is. Kakakaka!

Control?

6th Anniversary (2021)

The 6th Anniversary is themed “FUSIONIC STARS!!.” This theme reflects a concept named "Fusion" and other concept named "Rock". "Fusion" stands for fact that every unit would be getting a "Fusion Song" with other unit, mixing their styles and bringing a brand-new concept. Rock stands for the music style of the 6th Anniversary song, "FUSIONIC STARS!!", which is a Rock themed song.

×Valkyrie

Hmph. I simply can’t understand why we would have to sing something as barbaric as rock

Real? I kinda like it, thoughh~ It doesn’t feel all sweaty or overbearin’ or anythin’, and ’s a pretty good song, isn’t it?

Non! No matter how good the song is, I simply can’t welcome anything that’s rock

So you do admit it, then?

Well, I can’t give an unfair evaluation of the piece itself. A dishonest judgment is the enemy of art, after all

Oh, come onn~ Ya actually like it too, don’t ya, Oshi-san? Ya were hummin’ it unconsciously just a moment ago

Since we’re going to perform it, I simply don’t want to neglect our practice, it’s not like I’m just focusing on trivial things, Kagehira!

I believe rock is art, too

Hmm~ Yeah, the way ’s taken in so many different influences over time does feel kinda artistic

Honestly... You’re only getting better at running your mouth. Well, I suppose that interpretation works too

Whether it is a form of art or it is not is up to the performer. As always, let’s make a performance as Valkyrie always make, that exceeds all the expectations

7th Anniversary (2022)

The 7th Anniversary is themed “Surprising Thanks!!”. This theme draws inspiration from a casino concept and the lucky jackpot number “777.”
Like every anniversary song, it includes a special Music Version feature. In this case, the characters’ outfits change mid-song based on the roulette results.

Surprising Thanks!! Valkyrie

Honestly. As the other times, it’s quite noisy, isn’t it? Isn’t a casino just a place to satisfy one’s own desires?

Well, even themes we don’t usually tackle are fine, aren’t they? The costumes an all, it feels different from the usual Valkyrie, so it’s kinda refreshin’

Hmph. The costumes are fine, but I don’t want to do fan service for some “surprise” that Rei and the others are planning

Is that so...

..... (Wink)

Nyaaah!!! Oshi-san just winked!?

I would normally refuse cheap gimmicks like fan service, but precisely because we don’t usually do them, they have value as a “Surprise,” like Kagehira’s reaction just now… I can understand that, though

I believe your fans might want to see it

Yeahh, that’s right. They say joint projects help us make new discoveries beyond the boundaries of our agenciess, so we’ve got to take on new challenges too

Hmm… Maybe I should do somethin’ as well?

Even if you do it, I won’t forgive anything that makes Valkyrie lose its dignity. Well, a little hand‑waving is fine, though
