On August 4th, a joint event featuring momograci and BOCCHI. took place at Kinshicho Marui. I had seen momograci perform a few times, but this was my first experience with BOCCHI.
The event was a commemorative release for momograci’s M∞CARD titled “Why are you so cute?” A new member, Io Himemiya, joined the band, and they showcased their new lineup.
I was able to take videos and still images of the performance since momograci allowed recording. However, since I was positioned at the back, the quality of the shots isn’t very good.
