The real-life band Togenashi Togeari, inspired by the in-anime band from the original anime Girls Band Cry, is set to hold a solo concert at Nippon Budokan on September 23. The concert has been officially titled “Sogeki no Sakebi” (奏檄の叫), and its key visual has been revealed for the first time.

The key visual was illustrated by nari Tejima, the character designer of Girls Band Cry, continuing the tradition of past visuals for the band's performances. It features the five band members in their signature stage outfits, with the backdrop of Nippon Budokan—an iconic scene also familiar from the anime’s opening sequence.

For fans attending the concert, a special BIG towel featuring this key visual will be included as a bonus for designated premium seating.

In the anime, protagonist Nina Iseri famously declares, “Our goal is Budokan!” Now, the band has reached that very goal, fulfilling the dreams of both the characters and their fans. Adding to the excitement, the Girls Band Cry compilation film is set to premiere on October 3, ensuring that the entire project continues to gain momentum.

About Togenashi Togeari

Togenashi Togeari was formed in February 2023 as the in-universe band from the original anime Girls Band Cry. The band operates under the concept of “A band that can win in five seconds”, combining intense performances with the unique journey of its members, who are also making their debut as voice actors.

The lineup consists of five musicians selected through the “Girl’s Rock Audition”, held by agehasprings, Universal Music, and Toei Animation in June 2021:

Rina (Vo, as Nina Iseri)
Yuri (Gt, as Momoka Kawaragi)
Mirei (Dr, as Subaru Awa)
Matsu (Key, as Tomo Ebizuka)
Shuri (Ba, as Rupa)

With their first-ever Budokan live approaching, anticipation for Togenashi Togeari continues to build, making this a milestone event for both the band and Girls Band Cry fans alike.
