Update on Sadie’s 3rd Single

Last month we weren’t able to update you very much on Sadie’s third consecutive single, “Juggernaut,” but now there’s finally more info! First of all, this single will in fact come in two editions, whereas before we only had information on one edition.

As we said before, “Juggernaut” will be released on December 15th and be featured on the anime, “Mazinkaiser-SKL.” The regular edition will have two tracks and cost 1,200yen, while the limited will include a PV of the title track in addition to two tracks and cost 1,800 yen. You can pre-order this single from either CD Japan or Brand-X below:

New Look and New Single for Kaya!

If you’ve been following Kaya’s twitter, then you know he has a brand new look! Coincidentally, his new theme seems to match with the season! Kaya wrote in his blog about his new theme and short story, and we will hopefully have a translation of it for you soon!

As for the single, it will be titled “Madome Rosa” and come in two versions. The first version is titled “マダムローザの娼館 – 媚薬 – (Madome Rosa no shoukan – Biyaku -)” and comes with a special sticker. The second version: “マダムローザの娼館 – 麝香 – (Madome Rosa no shoukan – Jakou -).” The single will be released on December 22, just before Christmas, “Biyaku” will cost 1,050yen while “Jakou” will cost 1,575yen since it also comes with a video comment from Kaya. Both CDs will have the same tracklist that you can see below:

1. Madome Rosa
2. Madome Rosa -Kayaless ver.-
3. Madome Rosa -Remix-

*In case you were wondering, “Madome Rosa” isn’t a typo, it’s how Kaya spelled the English version on his blog, I was just as confused as you probably are, but I decided to go with how the artist has chosen to spell it.

Pre-Order:
“Biyaku” version
“Jakou” version

Also being released on December 22nd is a remix single featuring three previously released tracks that you can see below. This one costs 1,200yen and you can pre-order it through this link.
