METEORA st., a creator label operated by ISARIBI Inc. (CEO: Hiromi Tagawa; Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo), is pleased to announce that affiliated anime-song dance performer Ryu of REAL AKIBA BOYZ has successfully completed his solo live tour, "Raisei," held on Thursday, March 26, 2026, at Umeda Club Quattro (Osaka) and Monday, March 30, 2026, at Zepp Shinjuku (Tokyo).

19-year-old Ryu, who has garnered attention as the lead in the new SoftBank commercial "Ugokidaseba, Keshiki wa Kawaru" (If You Start Moving, the Scenery Changes), balances his studies as a university student with his activities as the youngest member of the internationally popular group REAL AKIBA BOYZ. This tour marked his first-ever solo headlining tour across Tokyo and Osaka.

At "Raisei," Ryu captivated the audience with physical expression and staging that belied his 19 years, resulting in high-energy performances at both venues. Furthermore, the Tokyo performance was streamed for free in its entirety across four platforms—YouTube, Instagram, TikTok LIVE, and X—creating a new live experience that united the physical venue with the online audience. A total of approximately 15,000 concurrent viewers from Japan and abroad participated, providing an opportunity to share Ryu's expressive power and presence with a wider audience.

In conjunction with the completion of the tour, it was also announced that Ryu's 3rd solo live concert will be held in the spring of 2027, raising expectations for the next stage of his rapidly evolving career.
