"Yoimatsuri" (Evening Festival) releases another video work, "Story Video"!

The "Story Video," released today, is another visual work that shines a light on the story that unfolds in the song and the emotions of the Japanese Obon culture, depicting the world from a different perspective than the already released "Lyric Video." Centered on the theme of "prayers for those Aitai," it delves into the atmosphere behind Obon, which is seen as "connecting this world and the next."

This time, as a first-time attempt, we will release a video in the form of a "story video." Since I was little, every time I touched shadow puppetry or paper cutting, I was drawn to their cuteness, eeriness, and a somewhat nostalgic feeling. Through this technique, the feelings put into the song "Yoi Matsuri" are expressed through this technique. The person who directed the video was a creator from Katsushika, whom I had been a fan of since before my debut. This is the tag team following the 'Gare Mekko' music video. Throughout the story video, Katsushika-san's unique nostalgia and analog feel are sprinkled with delicate details. We hope you will enjoy the world of the 'Yoi Matsuri,' which is different from the soft atmosphere of Lyric Video.

Since "Gazing Mekko," I am truly honored to have Tomonari-san's music featured in video again! Please enjoy the world of Tomonari's melodies and lyrics, which praise the warmth and warmth of pop, along with the video.
