Shiki Miyoshino, a VTuber talent under the third generation of PRISM Project, is set to make her major artist debut with Sony Music Labels. She will be releasing a debut single titled “hanahaki syndrome” featuring lyrics and composition by US-based artist GHOST. The single will be released this July 12.
Her first single delves into the theme of “Hanahaki Syndrome,” a fictional disease in which an individual suffering from unrequited love coughs up flower petals. This major debut and first single release mark the beginning of her journey as a messenger of the occult. This ties in with her lore as an occultic inugami (dog spirit) born from the wandering souls of dog owners who have lost their passion. She is lively and cheerful and deeply loves music, horror, and, of course, dogs.
“I’m excited and humbled for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that PRISM Project and Sony Music are giving me! As a Sony Music artist, I’m looking forward to promoting my content and bringing my message to the entire world and ensuring that all my fans continue to find an appreciation for feeling alive through horror and the occult. My debut single definitely reflects that – it’s super spooky and everything I could’ve hoped for in a major debut song, so I hope everyone will listen to it!”
