(Nakano-ku, Tokyo, President: Katsuhiro Takagi) are jointly developing the game "Girls Band Cry First Riff" (hereinafter: Garurifu). The original new band "Canna Lily" appearing in this work was formed by members selected through an audition jointly held by ASOBISYSTEM Co., Ltd. (Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Yusuke Nakagawa) and DONUTS. The band's first live performance, "Canna Lily 1st ONE-MAN LIVE 'Flower Blooming at Dawn,'" was held on June 26, 2026 (Fri) at Daikanyama UNIT (Shibuya-ku, Tokyo).

We are releasing the official report for this performance.

Tickets Sold Out! The First Live Showcases the Capabilities of the Highly Anticipated Band "Canna Lily"

Tickets for this live performance sold out during the fastest pre-sale.

At the venue, a packed audience eagerly awaited Canna Lily's appearance with great enthusiasm.

The live performance began with "Zanzō no Takanari," whose music video was recently released, instantly raising the venue's excitement. After finishing the song, the members of Canna Lily, appearing before the audience for the first time, gave their initial greetings with smiles, unable to hide their nervousness.

Following their fresh talk, they consecutively performed "Jiyū e no Honsō," a song characterized by its impressive piano melody, and "Kimi ni Sasageru Mirai," which starts with powerful vocals. The audience, caught up in the rapid-fire performance that fully demonstrated Canna Lily's skills, raised their fists without losing momentum.

Afterward, following a drum and bass solo, they captivated the audience by performing new songs one after another, such as "Kawaranai Sekai to Uta (Miake ni Saku Hana Ver.)," which sings about the determination to stick to one's beliefs, and "Ima o Koete," with its lyrics about moving forward positively. During the MC segments between songs, each member shared their thoughts on their first live performance and their future activities.

Although all the songs were performed for the first time, the live show fully showcased their high potential and was a night that greatly raised expectations for their future success.
