Walküre reveals visual design for live album “W encore”

The largest arena tour in Macross history started with the Tokyo Ariake Arena performance on May 20, 2023, and was held in Tokyo, Osaka, and Chiba for a total of 6 performances in 3 prefectures. To commemorate the 1st anniversary of the final tour, the jacket of the live album “W encore” (Double Encore), which will be released on June 5th, uses a new illustration by “Macross Delta” character designer Chisato Mita (CAPCOM). The design and early reservation bonus design have been released.

This product is available in two versions: a limited edition and a regular edition. The 3-CD set, which is common to both formats, contains approximately 200 minutes of all 43 songs performed on Chishu Raku’s tour, including the Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Center Day 6 performance, as well as the Ariake and Osaka performances. In particular, be sure to listen to the three songs that were not included in the previous video product and were performed only at the Osaka performance: “NEO STREAM,” “Do You Remember Love,” and “Welcome to Walküre World.”

In addition, the Blu-ray included with the first limited edition includes songs from held on January 13th and 14th, 2024. Live footage from Mikumo ΔJUNNA and FreyaΔ Minori Suzuki on January 13th, and Sheryl Nome starring May’n on January 14th will be recorded. The evening performances for both days have already been distributed, but the videos recorded this time are newly edited and re-edited versions, and two songs from the undistributed daytime performances are included as bonus tracks for each of the performances on both days. This is a complete version of the live video of all 16 songs. The majestic Kabuki stage in Kyoto’s Minamiza, said to be Japan’s oldest Kabuki hut, offers a slightly different stage experience, including a special arrangement that incorporates Japanese elements using an acoustic lineup created for this performance. .

The jacket design that was released is a new illustration drawn by Chisato Mita (CAPCOM), the original character designer for Macross Delta. The earrings worn by the members in the illustration are actually linked to the ones they wore on stage during , and it becomes the essence of the strong bond between them. There is.
