It will be followed on June 21st by his new live DVD, tentatively titled 15 Shuunen Kinen Concert Non-genre (Kari). The live release covers his 15th anniversary show Takeshima Hiroshi 15 Shuunen Kinen Concert Non-genre, which was held on November 6th, 2016 at Shibuya Sakura Hall. The release also contains the music video for Ikite mimashou (originally a B-side of his latest hit single Tsuki makura).
