The night began with a special collaboration between GARNiDELiA vocalist MARiA, Luna Haruna and Mashiro Ayano who heated up the crowd with a cover of ClariS’ Connect (2011).
The show then moved onto Mashiro’s solo performance who played five songs including her hit tracks ideal white and Lotus Pain.
Next up was Luna Haruna who is set to release her first greatest hits album LUNA JOULE this November. The singer performed six songs including her debut track Sora wa Takaku Kaze wa Utau and her hit number Kimiiro Signal.
Last of the solo performances was GARNiDELiA. Vocalist MARiA was backed by fierce dancers as she performed a total of 6 songs including ambiguous and SPEED STAR.
After the three artists had completed their sets the crowd believed that was it for the program – but the words “COLLABORATION” appeared on the stage screen with Luna Haruna and Mashiro Ayano stepping on stage once more to perform Overfly.
The collaborations didn’t end there however, as it was Luna and MARiA’s turn to team up, performing a cover of Eir Aoi’s INNOCENCE. MARiA and Mashiro then performed a cover of The Everlasting Guilty Crown by EGOIST.
Finally the three artists came together to perform oath sign by LiSA which launched the crowd into the stratosphere.

GARNiDELiA Announces 2023 World Tour & Cover Collection Series, New Visual Released
22.December.2022 | MUSIC
Vocalist MARiA and composer TOKU make up the popular duo GARNiDELiA. At the two’s epic finale for 2022, ‘GARNiDELiA stellacage 2022 -stella ship- OSAKA and TOKYO’ at EX Theater Roppongi, the duo announced a world tour coming in 2023.
The world tour, titled ‘GARNiDELiA stellacage 2023 -stella ship- Re:CoNNeCT,’ will take place in over 20 cities around the world from May to September 2023, including Shanghai, Beijing, Chongqing, Chengdu, Shenzhen, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, the Philippines, and a number of cities in Japan. A new visual was revealed alongside the announcement.
The duo will also release a Cover Collection series album in the spring of 2023. GARNiDELiA has covered a number of popular J-pop tracks in the past, releasing them on YouTube and streaming services. Fans in the audience were instantly excited by the announcement of the long-awaited album.
More details about the world tour and upcoming album will be announced in January 2023.
MARiA’s Comment on World Tour
“It’s been four years since our Asia tour.
Finally…finally…I’ll be able to see all of you.*
It’s been a long road, but we survived. We persevered. We’ll show you our real strength. And to those of you who have been waiting and supporting us over the past four years, we’ll be back to sing for you soon and show our love. I’m excited about this tour, which will be filled with miraculous moments where we’ll finally be able to share our feelings and make up for lost time.”
toku‘s Comment on World Tour“Although we performed overseas plenty of times following our debut, the last few years have kept us from doing so for the first time. We’re so excited to announce this long-awaited opportunity. We can’t wait to perform for our fans in Japan and abroad so we can make up for so much lost time.”
MARiA’s Comment on Cover Album
“The GARNiDELiA cover series began two years ago as a way to fill the void created by our tour being canceled. We had a lot of fun while working on it, aiming to pay homage to so many great songs and bringing our own unique twist and color to each of them. I think this was made possible by our diversity. We really played around with the sound for this album, and we’d be so happy if you could listen and enjoy!”
toku‘s Comment on Cover Album“Everyone has heard so many hit songs during their life. We’ve been lucky to have so much inspiration and to be able to play and have fun with this music. I wonder what kind of chemical changes the two of us can make with these songs. At the start of production, I felt like I was really facing each song with a pure heart, encountering a different form of music than I had in the past, partly as a reaction to our tour being canceled. As singers and artists, we’d be so happy if you’d listen to our interpretation of these classic tracks.”
*Maria uses the word for ‘love’ instead of ‘meet.’ Both are pronounced the same way.

Tetsuya Komuro and MARiA from GARNiDELiA Release Collaboration Song and Music Video
21.October.2022 | ANIME&GAME / MUSIC
The famed Japanese musician and producer Tetsuya Komuro and MARiA from GARNiDELiA have released a collaboration track and music video. Trust On Me -Theme of E.T.E- was released on October 16, 2022.
The track serves as the theme song for the new mobile game E.T.E. Chronicle, launched by bilibili on October 14. The game’s music was written, composed, and arranged entirely by Tetsuya Komuro. MARiA from the music duo GARNiDELiA provided vocals for the theme, known for her work on a number of anime and game properties.
The music is reminiscent of TM NETWORK’s TIME TO COUNT DOWN released 32 years ago, starting with an incredible piano solo and a sense of speed and urgency. Featuring lyrics about trust and faith, the song is a perfect fit for the game.
The music video features full 3D game footage interspersed with footage of MARiA and Tetsuya Komuro in the recording studio.
“I asked MARiA to provide the vocals because I knew that she could embody the game’s message,” Komuro said. “The most important thing was expressing a sense of speed and femininity.”
“I’m so happy and honored to have been chosen to take part in this wonderful and timeless collaboration,” MARiA said. “I hope this song pulls everyone into the world of E.T.E. Chronicle.”
