This is a sudden announcement, but our artist imase will be taking a break from his artistic activities for the time being.

Following the concert at Nippon Budokan on July 25th, his health deteriorated, and after a doctor's diagnosis, it was determined that he would require long-term recuperation.

Therefore, in order to prioritize his health and allow him to focus on his recovery, he will be canceling all currently scheduled events and media appearances.

For more details, please check the official announcements.

We sincerely apologize to all our fans and those involved for any concern and inconvenience caused.

We apologize for the inconvenience and concern caused to our fans and staff by this sudden announcement.

We have received many kind messages from everyone. Thank you very much!

I have always been on the move, so I hesitated to stop, but I have decided to focus on my own recovery under the guidance of my doctor. I am not someone who is good at resting, but I want to take some time off now for the rest of my life.

That's when you start walking!
