codomomental bulletin #49
On the eve of KAQRIYOTERROR’s return, the following image appeared on the group’s official Twitter account:
In addition to the members of Seireki13ya and TOKYO TEFUTEFU (as well as Megumi and Mei), there are also 7 new faces:
Nothing is known about them at the moment.
Together we will inherit the history that has been carefully created before us. Let’s go wild with all our might! 🦇1
From Yuzuriha Ouhi’s Twitter.
Along with the new companions – this is “18 Beasts.” I’m just an outside observer who wanted KAQRIYOTERROR to never end, but tomorrow I’m going to sing to not let [the group] come to an end.2
I will convey to you these feelings that are undoubtedly KAQRIYOTERROR.3
And you too, pour out all your feelings at the concert. You know how to do that, don’t you?4
From Mary Lust’s Twitter.
So that the music everyone loved can live on.
With love and respect.5
From Chimura Shifumi’s Twitter.
With respect to all the people who created this fun, let’s frolic freely, joyfully, as we are, as you are!6
From Kisaragi Megumi’s Twitter.
I think there are some people who would like to make some unflattering remarks about this, but all I feel is gratitude that they inherited [the group], I’m very happy.7
From GESSHIRUI’s Twitter.
Today’s KAQRIYOTERROR.
These artists, desperately using the given opportunity, will take the stage. Thinking only of entertaining the audience.
I believe this will serve as a great leap forward for these performers.
Paying respect to all the artists who have paved the story of KAQRIYO, all for the future.
I ask you to believe in the rapidly changing developments and enjoy this concert.8
I want my beloved KAQRIYOTERROR to move forward.9
From Takaki Kenta’s Twitter.
The first solo concert of the new KAQRIYOTERROR… lineup (?) featured 20 songs. Of course, not all 18 members performed at the same time – they were divided into units of 4-5 people, each assigned to a specific song10.
Thank you so much to everyone who came🥀
You probably have mixed feelings right now, but I felt from the bottom of my heart that I didn’t want to ruin this place where we can have fun with music with you like this.It was crazy fun! Thank you🦇11
From Yuzuriha Ouhi’s Twitter.
Thank you so much to all YOMIBITO who came🐈⬛
I felt your love for “Kaqriyo” to the fullest. And I will move forward to let that love live on. It was an amazing night.12
From Mary Lust’s Twitter.
Thank you so much🪄✨
I adore KAQRIYOTERROR songsき॑⸜(* ॑꒳ ॑* )⸝⋆*.
And I will continue to respectfully sing these songs as part of 18 beasts🎀
To all of you who have given yourselves to this music and have frolicked with me – I love you very much💕13
From Yui Urari’s Twitter.
The following morning, Not Secured, Loose Ends’ official Twitter account, tweeted that the “original members” of the project would be announced that evening. However, only one member was revealed: Mei Yui Mei.
I am once again taking the path of music that I love, cherish and adore so much. I want to sing, roar and live side by side with you in this place. I hope for your support!14
From Mei Yui Mei’s Twitter.
Meanwhile, in a new video translation, you can see Yui Urari talking about her life before Seireki13ya, what’s changed in her since joining the group, how she’s looking forward to the group’s first solo tour, and what she wants to say to the fans of the past “Seireki” who have a hard time accepting the group’s new look:
There are feelings that are important to me and I don’t want them to change – for example, feelings of treasuring something, feelings of love! You probably have those feelings too, and I want to know them, even a little. I know it’s selfish, but that’s how I want to live my life!15
From Nene Komochi’s Twitter.
Music is something that should not be taken lightly. After all, so much emotion, time, money – everything you can put into it. And it’s the same with artists. Some leave and some stay – everyone is different, but obviously they all act out of a variety of feelings. And there’s no right or wrong. So I’m just grateful to these people for keeping these songs alive.16
During the last period of Yukueshirezutsurezure, during the period of the 4th and 5th albums of Zenbu Kimi no Sei da, during the period of the second album of Seireki13ya, during the period of the first album of KAQRIYOTERROR, during the period of the first album of TOKYO TEFUTEFU, and also akugi – during all these times I thought that I probably couldn’t write anything more. But the growth of the performers has always inspired me.17
