Black Screen Records, in collaboration with Sony Music, will release an exclusive album in limited vinyl format celebrating singer LiSA’s 15th anniversary. The product will be available in August 2026 and features tracks from throughout LiSA’s career, including both her early successes and recent major international hits.
The album’s pre-orders began on May 29, coinciding with the opening day of DoKomi (Düsseldorf, Germany), one of the largest conventions in Europe. The official release date also coincides with a special: August 26 is the opening day of Gamescom (Cologne, Germany), the world’s largest video game trade fair.
The vinyl’s cover artwork is a reference to the Japanese numerical wordplay known as “gorowase,” in which numbers are combined and interpreted based on their pronunciation. In Japanese, the numbers “1” and “5” are read as “ichi” and “go” respectively, forming the word “ichigo” which also means “strawberry.”
LiSA will also embark on her first EU & UK tour, titled “LiVE is Smile Always ∼15∼,” this September, which includes shows in Milan, Düsseldorf, La Villette, and London. Tickets are already on sale.
