Sexy Zone was one of the groups through STARTO ENTERTAINMENT that I discovered not long before their shift to timelesz – right after the Highlight era – and I enjoyed them. 

Then Kento Nakajima graduated and the dynamic changed. Anthem was a great single from the new group. Then the group announced their Netflix docuseries timelesz project -AUDITION- and the search was on to add additional members that would keep the music poppin’ but also match the personalities and work-ethic of original three members: Fuma Kikuchi (菊池風磨), Shori Sato (佐藤勝利), So Matsushima (松島聡) – and if you know anything about STARTO ENTERTAINMENT – this isn’t just a full-time job, it’s a lifestyle. 

After a months-long process, Shuto Inomata (猪俣周杜), Taiki Shinozuka (篠塚大輝), Masaki Hashimoto (橋本将生), Takuto Teranishi (寺西拓人), and Yoshitaka Hara (原嘉孝) have joined the group and honestly their energy adds a whole new layer to the overall feel. 

Released on 28 February the song has all the high-energy fun as the group’s previous releases as Sexy Zone – and honestly, as a debut song goes, this one SLAPS!

As the group’s first digital release, I am more than a little excited to see what heights they go to. 

More timelesz soon so…

Stay tuned!
