Details of Masaharu Fukuyama's first film as director, "LIVE FILM: The Summer of Kotodama's Happiness," have been announced.

■Pursuing the “ideal live sound” and “ideal live production and visual world” that exists in Masaharu Fukuyama’s mind!

The live film “FUKUYAMA MASAHARU LIVE FILM Kotodama no Happiness no Natsu @ NIPPON BUDOKAN 2023,” which was directed by Fukuyama Masaharu himself for the first time and was screened for four weeks only in January, will be released on Blu-ray and DVD on December 18th.

The release itself had already been announced, but detailed information about the Blu-ray and DVD was announced on September 26th, the day of the band’s first concert at Nippon Budokan in about a year.

This work will be released in three versions: a first limited edition, a regular edition, and a fan club-exclusive BROS. edition, each on Blu-ray and DVD.

The full version includes five songs that were not included in the theatrical release or Amazon Prime Video distribution, as well as audio content “A special conversation between Fukuyama and the engineers.” The Blu-ray also comes with the option to choose Dolby Atmos(R), the same sound as in movie theaters.

This live film is a work that pursues the “ideal live sound” and “ideal live production and video world” that Fukuyama himself has in his mind. The first limited edition and BROS. edition also come with a live sound source CD (containing the entire performance of 25 songs) that allows you to immerse yourself in the “ideal live sound” even more.

The BROS. version comes with a lot of goods, such as the super balls with the Kotodama logo from the super ball scooping game that was very popular at the “Summer Festival” held at the National Museum of Science and Technology in Kitanomaru Park in conjunction with the performance, and the gold tape with the performance name printed on it, which was previously a popular bonus, has been increased to five colors this time and will be included randomly in an original drawstring bag. Each version also comes with a photo card with a different design.
