Karen to Leave ClariS

Karen, one-half of anison duo ClariS, has announced she will "graduate" from the group on November 10th.

The singer's departure will follow the conclusion of the duo's forthcoming AUTUMN TOUR 2024 ~Via Fortuna~, bringing to an end a decade-long tenure that began when she replaced co-founder Alice in 2014.

In a message accompanying the announcement, Karen stated she was stepping away from ClariS to pursue another dream: getting married and starting a family. Her bandmate Clara has confirmed she will continue activities as ClariS.

In the meantime, on October 16th, ClariS will release AUTUMN TRACKS, the fourth and final instalment in their tetralogy of seasonally-themed mini-albums. The new compilation ClariS ~SINGLE BEST 2nd~ will follow on the 23rd.
