Break and Cross the Walls I will include seven previously released tracks, including Merry-Go-Round, the opening theme song for the popular anime series My Hero Academia and INTO THE DEEP, the theme for the Japanese release of the film Godzilla vs.Kong. The newly-released jacket art shows five wolves standing symbolically atop a chessboard. The December 2021 issue of ROCKIN’ON JAPAN magazine will feature these five animals on the front cover, along with an exclusive interview with the band. MAN WITH A MISSION Presents Merry-Go-Round Tour 2021, the band’s first arena tour in two years, will start on November 30 at Yokohama Arena.
