With Love... with sign language?

[lalois.livejournal.com]

Hello!
Sorry, I'm not even sure whether this post/question might be OT here.
I finished watching Takizawa Kabuki ZERO yesterday (awesome *O*), and while the With Love performance aired, and I noticed they made signs during the choreography. Is it just my impression or did they really "talked" in the Japanese sign language while singing throughout that part of the performance?
Here a screencap of the part I'm referring to:


If this was a well-known info, I'm sorry I didn't know. I'm new into the fandom so that's why my question arrives now XD
Thanks in advance to anyone who might help and let me now!

It's shown "image is locked" for me but yes, they were using sign language and it has been in With Love since this song was performed way back~

Thanks for the notification, I uploaded the screencap again, dunno if it's correctly visible now.
Wow, thanks for your kind confirmation! I'm really "weak" towards these kind of things. Awwwww *3*!!!!

the sign language has been part the choreography since the first time it was performed. not throughout the song, just the chorus. Takizawa-kun said something about it making the song special or something, i don't really remember. but yes, from the beginning he deliberately included the sign language.

Thank you so much for all these details, I'm flailing even harder now ^_^
