GLAY 30th Anniversary Year!! ✨
Key visual released! !

The key visual for “GLAY EXPO” was created by Eiichiro Oda, the author of “ONE PIECE”! !
With this visual that is appropriate for the adventure called EXPO,
Please look forward to the 30th anniversary of GLAY!
Oda captured the spirit of the band and the Glay Expo well in the key visual. Looking at the piece, though, it has a pop-art aesthetic not commonly associated with Oda. This makes the visual unique and stand out even more from his other works.
Along with the key visual, Glay posted a YouTube channel detailing what's in store for the event. This includes a new single release and their first appearance at a summer festival. A full list of events can be seen on Glay's homepage.
While Glay isn't as integrated into the anime music industry by comparison to its contemporaries such as L'Arc-en-Ciel, Glay has left its mark on the industry and the Japanese rock scene. As the Tweet featuring the key visual suggests, this year will be an adventure for them. Why not hop on their ship and their adventure?
