Always, thank you truly for assisting Metis Gretel.
This is for everyone's information.
Though it is sudden, at Metis Gretel's 3rd ONE MAN LIVE 「Dramatic Cult～last night continued～」, it was decided the band will disband.
For the reason of the disbandment, please see the member comments.
To all who assisted, thank you, and sorry.
Until the end, please continue your aid and support.

Before I go on with member comments, I want to say I'm not fluent in Japanese, so there might be errors. However I did my best to convey what the members wanted to say. If there are errors, I'm sorry.

At our 2/1 sponsored event, we announced we'll disband.
To all who have normally assisted us, and to all those concerned with Metis Gretel, I am full of nothing but feelings of apology.
The reason is, in regard to Metis Gretel from now on, each member drew their ideal image and a gap appeared, and in reality, activity with the members became difficult.
Once the period became worry and more worry, we arrived at the conclusion that we would disband.
Honestly, there are many things I wanted to do that are left behind.
With these members, until you understand and accept that activity is not possible, you'll be sad, but our objective is to leave behind the best night at our last oneman.
There is nothing left but to turn ahead and walk forward now.
It's a bit early, but up until now, thank you very much.
Until the end, please support Misery, Rukia, Setsuna, and Kuzuki, as well as Sui.

On 2/1 the announcement was passed on that on 3/3, Metis Gretel will disband.
I became a member midway through Metis Gretel, and until now was in charge of sound composing, and regarding the sound and visuals of the band, the style that all 5 of us imagined little by little ended up different, and after many discussions, we arrived at the decision of disbanding.
To all the fans who aided us up until now, as well as all authorized people, truly thank you very much.
We were able to spend a lot of precious time together, and because very good experiences piled up, I feel honored.
From here on, I feel I want to give my concentration every day and do my best.

I'm sorry for surprising you with our sudden breakup announcement.
We members discussed it many many times, but finally we reached the state where disbanding was the result.
It is truly inexcusable.
During Metis Gretel's activity, I experienced many things for the first time and was perplexed and feeling down, but I feel that due to the aid we received from all who loved Metis Gretel, we were able to continue on until now, and moreover because we were able to meet and become indebted to so many people, I truly thank you all.
If I hadn't met Sui-kun and Kuzuki-kun, Metis Gretel probably wouldn't exist, and if Metis Gretel had not been active, I probably wouldn't have been able to meet Misery-kun and Setsuna-kun, so I think that being with Metis Gretel was truly a wonderful thing.
Metis Gretel will end on 3/3 at our oneman, but on that day, so we can perform without any regret remaining, we ask for everyone's assistance up until the end.

The announcement was passed on that on 3/3 Metis Gretel will disband.
When speaking of a band, of 5 people with 5 thoughts and ideas, you have to believe.
And bands are always growling, evolving.
When the courses of each of these 5 evolutions little by little form gaps, you become unable to settle into the frame.
Everyone's strength was utilized to the maximum, and I think there was nothing but this decision.
To all who assisted Metis Gretel, a breakup is inexcusable, but from here on please continue to support us.
Please ensure Metis Gretel will be at our best on 3/3.

On this day, the maiden of mixed blood will fall asleep for eternity.
About 3 years ago, though she hesitated, she was able to walk and to keep life's lamplight burning bright, and she was little when she came to spend a long time in the stream and was able to meet many people by chance.
To the maiden who had nothing, the sky downpoured with many miracles... and I hope that once this maiden begins her trip away from this world, she won't be forgotten.
And, I have one wish.
This present Metis Gretel which holds the same name, please don't forget the maiden was here, and with her the fate of the mixed blood was delivered, even though it was strong and fresh.
It's become the end, and to all the fans who supported and aided Metis Gretel, and to all of the authorized people involved... until now thank you very much.
I say this with heartfelt gratitude.
(*Kuzuki's was really strange. I might be way off...)
