The non music activities must have taken up a lot of Mika's time from the 2nd 1/2 of the year onwards until now

Preparing for a stageplay is heavy stuff , let alone Mika is playing the lead role somemore

Mika will be making a guest appearance on TV Asahi's drama Jikou Keisatsu Hajimemashita later via its broadcast today

Jikou Keisatsu Hajimemashita is aired every Fri since last month & this week is its 4th episode broadcast

I mean, it's inevitable, but still a little sad. I still remember being a little confused when Ayu started slowing down after L. And again when it became clear in late 2017 Ayu wasn't going to be releasing new music anytime soon.

At the same time, I also don't want to see cheap and uninspired PVs, covers, etc. because MIKA can't get the same budget anymore.

Double-edge sword. I want it, but I don't want it if it's not up to MIKA's standards. And she's 20 years in at this point, so I should start to accept that eras like VOICE just aren't a thing anymore.

It's just that it's been so damn good. And even when it wasn't great, it was still worth paying attention to. She's been one of the most unique J-Pop experiences for me. And she's really good at reggae!

It's funny, Mika is one of the most active female soloists, aren't you into Yuna Ito, Ami Suzuki, OLIVIA, Anna Tsuchiya? They don't release things in years that's frustrating
