Here's some news that doesn't warrant its own post, featuring ΛrlequiΩ (アルルカン), MASKED RIDER SYSTEM, PENTAGON (ペンタゴン), RHEDORIC, and Sanada Ren (真田 廉):


GOEMON RECORDS has announced its annual lucky bags. As usual, there's a label edition, ΛrlequiΩ (アルルカン) edition, and PENTAGON (ペンタゴン) editions. Each costs 9,999 yen and will feature 8~9 “luxurious” goods and a ticket to an exclusive oneman. They'll be on sale from 2016-12-01~05, and will ship around 2017-01-12.

All three oneman lives will be held on 2017-01-21 at SHIBUYA REX. PENTAGON will allow fans to decide the members' costumes; ARLEQUIN will allow fans to decide the setlist; and the GOEMON live will feature a vocalist shuffle.


ΛrlequiΩ (アルルカン) bassist Shohei (祥平) will replace lynch. bassist Akinori (明徳) in a session band at the MIDNIGHT PARTY ZOO 2016 event on 2016-11-28 at Shinjuku (新宿) LOFT.

PENTAGON (ペンタゴン) has announced their “hit kigan” (ヒット祈願, lit. “hit prayer”), in support of their single CRAZY TRAVEL.

Admittedly, I'd never heard of this before, but I guess it's a thing. It's basically a fan meeting/vacation, except there's a part where they all pray for the success of the band's upcoming release??

Anyway, the event will take place over January 14 & 15, at 44,800 yen per ticket. 4~5 people will stay in a hotel room together (additional charges for fewer than 4 people in one room), with 35~120 participating in total.

First day:

  • arrival at the hotel
  • welcome ceremony and greetings from PENTAGON members
  • acoustic live at Suwako Onsen (上諏訪温泉)
  • communal dinner (provided) and games with members
  • room visit from the members & 2-shot photo session (separate ticket required)

Second day:

  • breakfast at the hotel (provided)
  • bus ride to Suwataisha (諏訪大社) shrine, with exclusive secret video played during
  • “Fukuo ha Dare!?” (“福男は誰!?”) at shrine (I guess it's a ceremony where they race, and first place is declared the luckiest person for that year?)
  • “album hit prayer” (“ヒット祈願”) & 2-shot photo session (separate ticket required)
  • farewell ceremony
  • departure back to Tokyo (東京)

Since they're calling it “アルバムヒット祈願,” does that mean they're planning to release a full album soon?


PENTAGON (ペンタゴン) will participate in a twoman with MeteoroiD, Domestic Alien THE LAST, on 2017-02-02 at Aoyama (青山) RizM.


PENTAGON (ペンタゴン) has shared a collection of images taken after each concert during their Zekkyou! (絶叫!) tour.


RHEDORIC will participate in a three-day threeman event, Fuyu no GTR ~SG fes~ (冬のGTR ~SG fes~), on 2016-12-03 & 04 & 05 at club Lizard YOKOHAMA, along with non-visual bands G to Z and TOTAL OBJECTION.

A coupling CD, GTR, will be sold at the event, and will feature new, exclusive songs (will never appear on a future release) from each band.

Those who purchase a premium VIP ticket will be allowed to watch rehearsals, will have guaranteed front row positions, will get to go backstage, and will receive a signed bag of band goods.


Sanada Ren (真田 廉) participated in a live on 2016-10-31, at which he awarded a new CD, demo_4, to those who spent 5,000 yen on his goods. Also, his sponsored event, 2016_sanada_logout, was held on 2016-11-19 at cafe make, and those who spent 5,000 yen on his goods received the album sanada_logout (7~10 songs; probably a collection album).
