Buta members are safe (although Ranko has felt the earthquake in Osaka, but she’s okay), and they have been retweeting news. Now let’s move on to the bright stuff… Comiket 103 went fine, and Itoyuyushi… Read more »
And here we are, at the end of another year… and with the usual round up post! I don’t have too much to say about myself, so this will be purely a Buta post. Let’s start with the music stats.

Wohooo! It’s been more than a year since my last pre-release commentary! What do we have this time…? Itoyuyushi is an album made to celebrate Ghostly Field Club and Perfect Cherry Blossom’s 20th anniversary, so all the tracks come from those two works (mainly the former). It’s a not a very exciting concept – it feels like the Pig didn’t… Read more »

Next year, BUTAOTOME will play for the first time ever in Europe! On February 17th and 18th, they will be in Lausanne, Switzerland, along with IRON ATTACK!!. This will… Read more »
The last live of the year is over! This was a very special live for Buta, since they were super super excited to play with THE SLUT BANKS. They also hope more people will listen to them (Ane recommends the best of). So here is the setlist! Ranko’s playlist with the setlist:
So… in the last review I did mention my dislike of Epitaph. I wanted to elaborate on it in either post and make a pseudo re-review, but I kept rewriting my thoughts and I didn’t really know where they could fit. It’s one of those topics where I feel like I can only spread salt with my opinions, and talking… Read more »
“Every day is like a continuation of a dreamIf I can have a bit of fun, that’s all that matters” Yeeee, welcome back to the review corner!!!
