KOKIA updates: April 2024

Below, I have summarized KOKIA’s recent announcements and messages. As explained here, this will remain the style of updates for now. The updates for April are below.

Once-in-a-lifetime meetings tour

Continuing her Once-in-a-lifetime meetings, KOKIA goes to Oita and Saga next, mentioning in her blog entry for April 6 that Oita has sold out and only 10 seats remain for Saga at that point. She's also started selling her new merchandise at these concerts, including a new tour T-shirt.

KOKIA looks back on her April 13 performance in Oita and her April 14 performance in Saga in her blog entry from April 19. It was her first time for both, and she shared some pictures on her Instagram. As it's been so long since she's toured and she was hitting these places for the first time, she was pleasantly surprised to see how many people showed up. She chose the venues, BRICK BLOCK in Oita and Roman-za in Saga, for their sea-side view and historically rich atmosphere respectively, and had a good time, looking forward to visiting again next year. Next up, the special Tokyo performance on May 23!

All upcoming performances are now sold out completely. KOKIA already mentions in her April 27 blog entry how she'd like to tour again next year and attend more venues this time.

Other performances

Starting April 15, tickets have gone on sale for another private studio performance at 01073house, dubbed Piano and Kokia vol. 1, to be held on June 8 and 9. She mentions this in her blog entry for April 12 as well as in a separate news entry that same day. As the title implies, KOKIA will accompany herself on piano in a smaller venue, the way all her songs are born and how she used to perform a lot when she debuted, and for a limited number of guests. Tickets are available via TicketPay.

KOKIA also announces in her April 27 blog entry that she'll have another performance on August 3 and 4, at the Sonorium in Tokyo, a place with good memories. Further details and ticket information are still to follow. She also teases another event, but says she'll save that for next week.

Releases

No big new releases, but KOKIA does announce in her blog entry of April 27 that starting May 11, all of her Animal albums will be available digitally. The Animal Kingdom 3 and The Animal Kingdom volume 4 will then be online to stream from various platforms, completing the current set of four.

I think what a lot of attempts to emulate the Philips CD-i cutscene style get wrong is that yes, these folks had no idea how to animate, but that also meant having no acquaintance with any of the labour-saving practices of mainstream animation, and thus not knowing what not to do. I know it's a meme, but look up the original Morshu animations some time and pay attention to how absurdly complicated his poses and gestures are for a guy who has a grand total of two voiced lines.
