Waaaaait a minute

Do As Infinite in the year of our lord 2024? I know it's probably me living under a rock but I'm shocked they're back at it!! (I'm ready to hear they've been back together for like years now and I simply missed it lol)

[thrtythreeteeth]

That was my first thought! Like, wait, they're still around??

[reveriexz]

Yes DAI is still at it!! They barely release new music (the one before Till We End The Day was Tsumugi back in 2023), but they perform lives every now and then. The new song was to celebrate their 25th anniversary last month!

Ah yeah I definitely missed it then. But it would be nice if they could release a full length album....

The 1st video makes me miss fansubbed anime with the karaoke effects for OP/ED.

I probably only watch 1-2 anime/year since they went mainstream. Legit subs just lack something for me.

Is "Monotone" associated with an anime or is this video just it's own thing? Asking because I'm intrigued if there's more

Also loving "Infinity" <3

Side note, I'm seeing Atarashii Gakko live next week and I'm sooooo hype

[reveriexz]

Yes, Monotone is an anime movie Fureru.'s theme song!

Atarashii Gakko live sounds super exciting! Hope you have lots of fun!!
