The five-member male artist group, Da-iCE, officially released their latest song, “Monster,” on October 22nd.

This powerful track was specifically penned as the exciting opening theme song for the TV anime “Monster Strike Deadverse Reloaded,” an eagerly anticipated series that began broadcasting on October 21st at 11:00 PM on TOKYO MX and 44 other stations across Japan. Group members Iwaoka Tooru and Wada Hayate took charge of crafting the lyrics, with Wada Hayate also showcasing his talent by composing the music. While “Monster” delivers a heavy, electrifying dance number, its unique appeal lies in being a rare song that features all five Da-iCE members lending their voices, making it a truly special addition to their discography.

On the very same day, at 7:00 PM, the highly anticipated music video for “Monster” made its grand premiere on YouTube. One of its absolute greatest highlights is the exhilarating, high-level dance battle that unfolds between Da-iCE and a collective of talented dancers. Choreographers KAZtheFIRE and Macoto, along with the RHT. crew, joined the MV as the enigmatic “Monsters,” adding an extra layer of intensity to the performance. The visual transformation of these “Monsters” is equally captivating, having been meticulously crafted over approximately five hours by renowned special effects makeup artist KAIHO and his skilled team. Their incredible work brings a truly unique and formidable presence to the video, making it an absolute must-see for fans.

The intricate choreography for this dynamic project is a brilliant collaboration between Wada Hayate and RHT. dance crew members KAZtheFIRE and Macoto. Directing this visually stunning piece is CRAZY JOE, the visionary behind “TAKE IT BACK,” the powerful lead track from Da-iCE’s album “MUSi-aM,” released last year. The “Monster” MV bursts with a fresh and edgy aesthetic, brought to life through lightning-fast cuts and a clever use of eccentric effects that demand constant attention. Adding Da-iCE’s signature touch of humor, the video offers a completely different and captivating viewing experience compared to their previous works, solidifying its status as an engaging masterpiece.
