They will reach their 20th anniversary on January 25, 2026, and have been actively engaged in various activities, including a nationwide tour that includes a performance at the Tokyo Dome, a long-held dream.

U-NEXT has decided to exclusively live-stream the final performance of the "FUNKY MONKEY BΛBY'S 20th anniversary TOUR ~Sonomanma Higashi e Nishi e~," which was held at Showa Women's University Hitomi Memorial Hall in May. Please enjoy the culmination of this tour, which started with live house performances and expanded to halls in various locations, with U-NEXT's unique high-quality audio and video. Additionally, a missed-performance stream is planned after the distribution ends, so you can enjoy the live performance as many times as you like during the period.
