– Personal comment –
This stage called life begins the moment you are born.
Everything that has shape may actually be a lie.
However, it is surprisingly interesting.
Dreams and reality, tragedy and comedy. Today, I have become an actor in a world that is filled with both.

A new generation singer-songwriter born in 2002.
They have appeared on the J-POP scene like a comet, and their songs are recording viral hits one after another.
His haunting melodies, humorous word sense full of mystery and poison, and expressions of a Japanese worldview have become a hot topic.
