Busaiku no, Wa! is the first album by Japanese boy band Busaiku, released by Avex Trax on December 13, 2017.[1]
The release of the album was announced by a flyer distributed to the audience by "Surume-san" (played by Masahiro Nakai) during Kis-My-Ft2's concert "2015 Concert Tour 'Kis-My-World'" at Tokyo Dome on September 20, 2015. Although the album announcement disappeared from the official website of Johnny & Associates in 2016 with no further news[2]
The album was finally released in November 2017, over two years after the announcement. And their first concert "Busaiku Mura no Watto! Odoroku! Dai 1 sho" was held from January 2018.The release date, December 13, was the anniversary of Busaiku's CD debut.[3]
After Nakai proposed the album title "Wa," the members gave it meanings such as "wa," "ring," "talk," and "laugh. and surprise" as the album's theme.
The CD was released in three formats: first edition A/B and regular edition. The jacket photo of the CD was taken in the "Busaiku macho" style, with the upper half of his body naked instead of his trademark gray businessman's suit.
