Naturally, I don't have it yet. That's OK. I am patient. (Alright, that was an outright lie.) I will be in South Korea soon enough and you had better believe that with my first pay check I am heading straight to the bookshop and placing an order for this. In the meantime, I was able to collect some information.

☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・° COMMENTS ☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°

I have been bravely ignoring other people's reviews of this so as not to spoil any surprises.
Random thoughts as I type this...
IM sure loves the Christmas season release date.
I hope they release a soundtrack like they have for the Are You Alice? series.

And as I said before, this story is just starting. IM continues to provide a lot of background information which I will be translating and posting for you in the future weeks. In the meantime, you can find general series information here.

Stay tuned and happy listening~! (^_-)-☆

KIRI 「霧」, THE SERIES@backstory

And now we break from our normal CD commentary to bring you the back story. A behind-the-scenes look at IM label's newest release, 霧 -the route of infection KANARIA.



【コウノトリの世界崩壊】

The Black Stork Brings the End of the World

* The first "bird cage", the black stork, brought about the memory loss incident. Part of the world's memory was seized by the black stork upon its invasion as the world had no defenses against it.
→ Even now in the world, there are humans without memory that are living with a portion of memories supplied by Aristophanes.

* After that, Aristophanes took upon the will of the world and hid the world's memories inside the body of a human.
→ Outside of Kiri there were a number of humans in the past who carried the world's memories inside themselves.

* The black stork was rejected by the world and was said to have perished.


【トリカゴ】

The "Bird Cage"

* A global infectious virus developed a few years earlier in order to invade the Earth. In the following research it was discovered that the "bird cage" is not a virus created by someone but is a completely living organism that emerged automatically.
→ It is believed that the "bird cage" has the thinking capabilities equivalent to that of a human.
→ The "bird cage" will not {can not?} directly inflict harm upon a human being.

* Currently on Aristophanes' side, they are furthering their investigations along the lines that the "bird cage's" purpose is the seizure of the world's memories.

* The "bird cage" changed its morphology and three times in the past attempted to invade the world. The different forms were given the following names:
TYPE.01@Black Stork
TYPE.02@Longclaw
TYPE.03@Tufted Puffin
→ The memory loss incident brought about by the initial virus, the black stork, has even to this date left deep claw marks on the world.

* In regards to the fourth "bird cage", Canary, at this point in time due to a lack of information, it has not been located. Investigations are ongoing.
→ Is it already in contact with Kiri?
→ Is it a new virus type having the form of a human?


【カナリア】

Canary

* The fourth of the global infectious viruses born out of the "bird cage". Aristophanes announced its official name as "TYPE.04@KANARIA", commonly called "Canary".
→ At this point in time it is recognized as a new viral form.

* Canary has the appearance, emotions, and language skills no different than that of a human and is now able to inflict direct harm upon them. Contact with Kiri is also possible.
→ Canary kidnaps Kiri to steal the world's memories. Current whereabouts are unknown.


【アリストファネス】

Aristophanes

* Aristophanes refers to that existence which can hear the voice of the world. Without any individualistic emotion, he carries out the world's desires absolutely. Aristophanes words are regarded as the will of the world itself. To protect the world from the "bird cage" infection, he buries the "world's memories" within the human, Kiri.
→ The "bird cage" is an entity that is not able to touch humans.
→ For the fourth "bird cage", Canary, this is possible?

<11.11>
In order to eradicate Canary, he invites those humans who hold a deep connection(?) to Kiri's memories to the fissure of the world.
→ Rockwell Black
→ Balfour J. McRyan(alias)
Honestly can not see them as being a force on the battlefield.

Again, for general series information, hop on over here. Personally, I can not wait to heat anthem two. Although now it is starting to look like I may actually have to order this one myself. Where that money is supposed to come from, I don't know. >.>

Anyway, stay tuned and happy listening~! (^_-)-☆

☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・° COMMENTS ☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°


Not much to say here. Just don't let this one pass you by! LISTEN!!

Mikishin plays a reticent, anti-social brother {But are we really sure about that?} and Hirata manages to be meltingly smexy in delivering some very creepy lines. The verbal battling between Hirata and Suzumura is great fun too. Not to mention incredibly reminiscent of the same tennis court back and forth play we saw between Hirata and Sakurai in the Alice? series. That should not be so much the surprise as the author for both series is the same. Nothing to fear about that though. There is no sense of cross-over or lack of originality to be found here.

Like most IM works though, you will need to listen at least
twice before you start to put the pieces together. Anthem:02 was finally released in what appears to be their favorite month of the year, December, again after a year long wait. Although I would prefer it did not, now that the Alice? series is winding down, hopefully they will pick up the pace in releasing the KIRI series and we won't be stuck waiting another year for the next one. >.>

As this story is just starting and IM has kindly provided a lot of background information this time, I will be translating those and posting for you in the future weeks. In the meantime, you can find general series information here.

Stay tuned and happy listening~! (^_-)-☆
