Last night,
the Monday 9pm drama *Black Trick*
finally premiered.
Actually,
something a bit mysterious happened yesterday.
It was 4:00 AM.
I had arrived at the Fuji TV (CX) studios for a promotional appearance
and was walking down a narrow corridor
on my way to the *Mezamashi TV* set.
A man
was walking toward me.
With my poor eyesight,
I couldn't tell who it was.
And yet,
"I recognize this atmosphere..."
I felt a distinct sense of nostalgia.
As we passed each other,
we exchanged greetings:
"Good morning."
I was incredibly curious.
I asked the producer,
"Who was that just now?"
"That was Mr. Sorimachi. He's here to promote *GTO*..."
That was the moment.
"Ah!!"
Memories from twenty-eight years ago came flooding back.
A summer night when I was twenty-five.
I was walking with a friend
behind the Tokyu Hands in Shibuya.
A man
wearing a cap pulled low over his face
was walking toward us alone.
I couldn't see his face at all.
But
he was enveloped in a unique, striking aura.
"Who is this guy...?"
I thought this as we passed him,
and when I mentioned it to my friend a moment later,
"That's Takashi Sorimachi!"
came the reply.
"Huh...
So there really are people who exude an aura like that..."
I still vividly remember
thinking those very words.
In fact,
I had never worked with Sorimachi-kun before,
nor had I ever run into him on set.
Yesterday,
I was surprised by that sense of familiarity
I felt before I even saw his face.
Perhaps
we remember the atmosphere a person carries
even before we remember their face.
An aura that hasn't changed in twenty-eight years.
It was a truly mysterious
start to the day.
昨夜、
月9ドラマ【ブラックトリック】が
いよいよ始まった。実は昨日、
ちょっと不思議な出来事があった。朝4時。
番宣でCXに入り、
『めざましテレビ』のスタジオへ向かうため、
狭い廊下を歩いていた。正面から、
ひとりのオトコが歩いてくる。目の悪いボクには、
誰なのか分からない。… pic.twitter.com/x5NrDkT8eC

Well, things didn't work out this time.
It's a shame!
But what surprised me most
was how quickly Nobuo-kun made the decision.
"We're wrapping it up."
...That was fast.
Still,
there were plenty of things I saw precisely because we took on the challenge.
Let's do something interesting together again!
To everyone involved—
thank you all so much for your hard work.
いやぁ、今回はうまくいかなかった。
残念！でも、一番驚いたのは、
ノブオくんの決断の早さ。「終わります」
……早っ。
まあ、
挑戦したからこそ見えた景色もたくさんある。また一緒に面白いことをやろう！
関わった多くの関係者のみんな、
本当にお疲れさまでした。 https://t.co/IhhUB9INEj

Yesterday,
the curtain rose on "Maou Symphony 2026 -INFINITY-" in Kawagoe.
I am deeply grateful
that we successfully reached opening day,
and to everyone who waited patiently
even though the start was delayed.
What I wanted to create this time
was not merely a concert.
It is a vessel
for confronting lost memories
through music.
Standing on stage,
I realized it once again:
This world
cannot be completed by the performers alone.
Yesterday,
the ones who truly completed that space
were the individuals who were there.
That is precisely why
I have no intention of stopping at the opening show.
More madness.
More immersion.
More beauty,
and more cruelty.
There is still more to strip away.
There is still more to shatter.
This world can still go deeper.
"INFINITY"
does not mean there is no end.
It means setting no limits
on thought,
on expression,
or on evolution.
The scene I saw yesterday
was not the finished form.
It was the beginning.
In the next city,
we will surpass yesterday.
And after that,
we will go even further.
Even I cannot yet see
the final vista we will reach.
That is what makes it exciting.
The memories you reclaim
will surely
rewrite the life that follows.
昨日、
川越で【魔王シンフォニー 2026 -INFINITY-】の幕が上がった。無事に初日を迎えられたこと、
そして開演が押しながらも待ってくれた全員に、
心から感謝している。今回、
ボクが創りたかったのは、
単なるコンサートじゃない。音楽を通して、
失った記憶と向き合うための箱だ。… https://t.co/yHshoQtlCu pic.twitter.com/fz5MdsNd9b

[Demon King Symphony]
Upon seeing this title,
someone said to me,
"That's some serious *chuunibyou*—that 'delusional adolescent' vibe—isn't it?"
Rest assured.
This isn't just ordinary *chuunibyou*.
It is the pinnacle of *chuunibyou*...
A world crafted in earnest
at that supreme level
is about to unfold.
True madness
cannot be born from half-hearted resolve.
Are you ready?
Welcome
to the [Demon King Symphony].
【魔王シンフォニー】
このタイトルを見て、
「厨二病ですね。」
と言われた。安心しろ。
ただの厨二病じゃない。世界最高峰の厨二病だ…。
その世界最高峰が、
本気で創り上げた世界が、
もうすぐ幕を開ける。狂気は、
半端な覚悟じゃ生まれない。覚悟はいいか？
ようこそ。… pic.twitter.com/WS9VmoYTa1
