It has been decided that I will appear on NHK's "18 Festival".

The 10th annual "18 Festival"

Based on the feelings expressed by 18-year-olds across the country, a new song will be created, and a "one-time only" performance will be held together with 1,000 18-year-olds who passed the selection process.

The theme this time is "Once in a Lifetime".

We are soliciting videos from 18-year-olds across Japan expressing their "once-in-a-lifetime" experiences, and UVERworld will take those feelings into consideration and write a song based on them.

UVERworld will be in charge of the 18th Festival.

We will give our all at the perfect time with all 1000 of you.

I want to create songs that I want to sing for the rest of my life.
