This is an arena tour that began on Saturday, February 1st at Sekisui Heim Arena in Miyagi, and lasted 12 performances in 9 cities across the country. As stated in “PLAY WHAT U WANT”, this performance is a request set list, in which fans will ask for songs they want to watch and listen to at the venue in advance, and even votes on members and staff will be added.

The final day of the Ishikawa performance began with “When My Devil Rises,” which has been performed at various parts of the tour. A giant object of five wolves towering on the stage is illuminated brightly, and lasers are emitted from their eyes. The audience shaking their bodies at their own pace in the all-standing venue, and the following “distance” suddenly engulfed in excitement. Jean-Ken Johnny’s new song “Additional performance of the Ha Tour Finals! Final destination Gacoco Kanazawa de Gozaimas. Preparing for a squeal? You’ll be hanging out to your heart’s content!” is the 2025 new song “REACHING FOR THE SKY” that was released into the world just before the tour began. The film is woven throughout the 12 performances, and has an increased powerful, solid sound. After further plays “database” and “1997”, the band staff members requested songs. The requests from staff members of the Friends will also be performed at each tour venue, and on this day, “Circles” was picked up from their latest work, “XV ep.” The live performance was performed for the first time on the final day in an unexpected way, and there were loud cheers. After that, when the intro to “Emotions” was played, a strings squad with wolf masquerade masks appeared behind the members. The band sound is superimposed with delicate yet powerful dramatic sounds.

In the middle, he performed “Akatsuki” in the acoustic section with Strings and Jean-Ken Johnny. In the second half, the numbers continued to increase the number, including “Vertigo,” “Focus Light,” and “Knot’s Miracle,” and the MC also revealed memories of his first visit to Kanazawa in the early days of his activities. After Jean-Ken Johnny’s “We’re going to listen to songs that we’ve taken to 15 years of emotion,” he replied with “Memories” and “FLY AGAIN,” and finally “DON’T LOSE YOURSELF” was the starting point for the band. Even after the five of them left the stage, the applause continued to halt, and in response, the band appeared on stage again, and the venue was intoxicated by Tokyo Tanaka’s solo performance, “whispers of the fake,” which was included in the latest film, “XV ep.” Furthermore, at the end of “higher,” the event concluded with the members of Yoshida Space Strings, who accompanied him on the tour, with the film, “Arigato Gozaimashita for 15 years. I hope you’ll be happy. MAN WITH A MISSION deshita. Mata, Okai Ishimasho!” and “Rase your flag.”

In addition, the best live set list, “MAN WITH A “15th” MISSION PLAY WHAT U WANT TOUR 2025″ has also been decided that the K Arena Yokohama performance held on March 22nd and 23rd will be broadcast exclusively on WOWOW on Sunday, June 15th.

At the end of the performance, it was announced that the “MAN WITH A MISSION presents “XV ep Tour 2025” will be held in three cities, Tokyo, Osaka and Hiroshima, which were not held at the “PLAY WHAT U WANT TOUR 2025” with the new EP “XV ep” released in March. The three new tour performances were combined, and 15 performances were unexpectedly likened to the 15th anniversary. This may be a plan typical of MAN WITH A MISSION, a live band that runs around the country.

In addition, it has also been decided that the first time it will be analogized to the past albums, which will mark the 15th anniversary. It will be released for the third consecutive month from “The World’s on Fire” in August, and in September, “Break and Cross the Walls I” and “Break and Cross the Walls II” and “Trick or Treat ep” for the first time in October, and in addition to the encore press of their first album, “MAN WITH A MISSION” and their second album, “MASH UP THE WORLD,” which have been difficult to obtain. MAN WITH A MISSION has been making a number of appearances at large festivals around the country this summer. It has also been decided that the “HOWLING ACROSS THE WORLD” UK/EU TOUR 2025, a tour that will headline 13 locations in six European countries, has been held in autumn, and the momentum is uncertain. I can’t take my eyes off MAN WITH A MISSION.
