The logo for KANJANI∞ 's "18th Festival" to be held this summer has been released! The "18 Festival" logo was created based on a hand-drawn draft by Beat Takeshi, and KANJANI∞ member Shota Yasuda added an arrangement to the logo, creating a colorful summer logo!
A new “18 Festival” official Twitter account (https://twitter.com/eighteenfes2022) has also been opened! The special website will be updated regularly with the latest information. Pia's special website for "18th Festival" (https://w.pia.jp/t/kanjani8-18) is also open, and "18th Festival" tickets will be on sale to the general public from 12 noon on Saturday, June 25th. Let's start!
And KANJANI∞ will appear at ROCK IN JAPAN FESTIVAL 2022! This is the second time for KANJANI∞ to appear at an outdoor music festival, after METROCK 2017 in 2017. KANJANI∞ is scheduled to appear on the final day, Saturday, August 13, 2022!
The sound source and jacket photo of the new Single “Cheers” released on July 6th ahead of “18 Matsuri” have also been released! Please check it out as well!

I recently asked Takeshi to design the logo for me, and since it was a celebratory event, he kindly agreed to the idea, and I am so grateful to him!
From the original draft, he told me that I could do the coloring and processing (he also joked that it didn't have to be me, haha), and based on Takeshi's handwritten touches, he collaborated with Yasuda's ideas, and now we have this project. The result is now.
When Yasuda colored the work and looked at the progress, he said, ``It turned out beautiful,'' and all the members were impressed.
I also received a voice from Takeshi telling me to do my best at this 18th festival. We will deliver the best event with the logo that has become another precious treasure!
And I will be participating in ROCK IN JAPAN FESTIVAL on August 13th.
We hope to be warmly welcomed by the packed audience, and we hope to have a fun day with everyone on the traditional stage with a sense of excitement.
Even those who don't know our music should take this opportunity to get to know us.
We hope that all of our fans will be able to experience sounds other than ours and have a meaningful day together.
We would like to thank everyone who will be joining us on the day, and we hope that everyone who comes to visit us will be safe.

I drew up various candidates and made various suggestions to the members for their consideration.
During the bright summer festival
``YOUTH, POP, blue, piercing colors,''
It's slightly sweet like cider, and the bubbles pop.''
and the evening passed
The summer night festival is changing
``Adult, SEXY, ferocious, eye-catching rich colors,''
It's as stimulating as alcohol, and the fire is blazing.''
Summer festival in just a few hours
It is a season that is good at showing us its diverse faces.
We wanted our 18th Festival to be enjoyed in the same way, and that's what we put into the logo.
and,
Above all, the original draft is by Takeshi, who is unique.
The brushstrokes of Takeshi's handwritten logo, the strength of the pressure, the thickness and wrinkles of the lines,
They gave me this kind of image,
After many twists and turns, we arrived at this design.
Thank you very much.
From now on, all EIGHTER and everyone else can do is raise this logo and make a fuss!
and,
KANJANI∞,
I will be participating in my first ROCK IN JAPAN FESTIVAL.
Even if I want to stand
It's a stage where you can't stand up so easily,
KANJANI∞ Family cannot hide their excitement.
Since I am allowed to go on stage,
"KANJANI∞ is an Idol Group,
We are also a rock band group that plays fun sounds."
I want to make this a good opportunity to deliver this message.
I'd love to,
Also try taking a shower of Johnny's sounds.
I will seriously ask you to deliver the music.
I am deeply grateful to have been given this opportunity.
