Commenting on joining DragonForce on tour;

Miho (Bass)
"I watched DragonForce for the first time in Japan in June 2017. I was fascinated by the flood of aggressive but beautiful sounds and their overwhelming stage presence. I am extremely honoured to be invited as a special guest of their UK tour. We will do our best performance to keep up with them!"

Miyako (Guitars/Keyboards)
"While talking with Herman at the Golden Gods afterparty we said that it would be nice if we could play together someday. I am very happy that it will come true! I will do my best."

Haruna (Drums)
"I am very happy and excited to be touring with DragonForce in 11 cities in the UK as I have been listening to their music as a fan. I think it will be a great opportunity for many people to listen to our music, so I hope we can do memorable performance for the audience and enjoy ourselves at the same time."
