Music Producer, Myu: “㊗️ Congratulations DIG-ROCK, you’re celebrating your fifth anniversary!
These past five years have gone by so fast, yet it feels like an eternity at the same time.
When’s the last time I actually wrote ‘RO🐧K*’ when speaking of the rock genre, I wonder?
I cannot thank this series enough for letting me be part of its adventure, I will forever carry these fond memories close to my heart ✨
To all that loved and will continue to fall for DIG-ROCK, we send you our biggest thank you too! 🤟”
Kuboshima later quote-retweeted their post with ‘RO🐧K,’ implying that this was a typo.
Director, Kuboshima: “#DIGch is back! For its 9th episode!
Hatano-san, Sato-san and Tarusuke-san will be hosting the show! Do give it a look~~
We have a lot in store to show you, hope you’re ready for it 🙆♀️”
Illustrator, Masahisa: “At long last, our fifth year...! Happy anniversary!!🎉👏
Every since this project was launched, we have had the privilege to enjoy countless precious experiences and fun moments. We wouldn’t be there without all the people involved backstage, and you who have been cheering us on for so long! Thank you so very much!
