ReoNa, an artist from Amami Oshima, performed at the [AOM presents Cheer Concert 'ReoNa -Yorimichi-' Round 2] held on Saturday, September 26, 2026, at Animate Theater (Animate Ikebukuro Main Store, North Building B2F) in Tokyo, organized by Animate Inc.

This event is part of Animate's music live project 'AOM (Animate Opportunity Meeting),' with the title 'Yorimichi' meaning 'a path of mutual support.' The concept is that performers, attendees, and all involved engage at their own pace. It was held as a cheer concert inviting students living or studying in Toshima Ward.

Following the first edition on May 5 (Tuesday, holiday), this was the second edition. ReoNa, who has always accompanied listeners' daily lives and hearts through her 'songs,' agreed with the event's theme of 'a path of mutual support' and fully cooperated again. On the day, she delivered a time unique to 'Yorimichi' centered on an acoustic live performance.

A message was also sent from Toshima Ward Mayor Miyuki Takagiwa.

[Message from Toshima Ward Mayor Miyuki Takagiwa]

------------------------------

I am Miyuki Takagiwa, Mayor of Toshima Ward.

I am delighted that the second AOM Presents Cheer Concert 'ReoNa -Yorimichi-' is being held.

Under the 'Toshima Ward Basic Concept and Basic Plan,' we are focusing on expanding cultural appreciation and activities for residents, especially providing diverse experiences for children who will lead the future.

For Toshima Ward, the 'holy land of manga and anime,' we deeply appreciate that ReoNa, a leading anisong singer, strongly supports our initiatives and has again invited students living or studying in the ward free of charge.

I am confident that this warm place called 'Yorimichi' will be a safe space where participants can be themselves, bringing new brightness and courage to take a step forward in their daily lives.

I extend my gratitude again to ReoNa and all those involved for their warm support.

Toshima Ward will continue to develop an attractive town so that children can carve out their future with rich creativity and dreams.

Now, please enjoy this special time to your heart's content!

At the Animate Theater venue, students living or studying in Toshima Ward gathered, waiting for ReoNa's appearance in seating-style rows.

ReoNa appeared on stage and started the live with an acoustic arrangement. The first song was 'step,step.' With a light number about moving forward at one's own pace rather than matching others, the day's 'Yorimichi' began.

Next, 'FRIENDS' delivered with a gentle voice the feeling of being supported by memories of important people while walking different paths. Then, 'Neko Shikkaku' shifted to a rhythmic sound, cheerfully singing a song that affectionately depicts a clumsy self struggling to live well, adding a new expression to the live.

In the middle, 'Amore,' the opening theme for the TV anime 'Kimi ga Shinu made Koi wo Shitai' released in July this year, conveyed earnest wishes for 'tomorrow' with loved ones through ReoNa's voice, followed by 'Sore wa Mahou Deshita' from the same 'Amore.' The encounter with someone transforms ordinary days into something special. The two songs depicted the feeling of 'thinking of someone' with different expressions.

The latter half of the live started with 'unknown.' She sang a song about facing 'living true to oneself' while wavering between the self seen by others and the real self. Then, 'Haisou' carried a message that even if you can't do your best now, it's not the end; you can walk the path you fled from again and again, overlapping with the 'Yorimichi' place that advocates 'a path of mutual support.'

The final song of the day was 'ALONE.' She delivered a song about searching for one's own way of living while carrying loneliness and weakness, as if speaking to each individual, concluding the 8-song live.

Following the first edition in May this year, the second AOM presents Cheer Concert 'ReoNa -Yorimichi-' took place.

Even if you can't keep pace with others, stop, or sometimes take a detour, it's okay. Through eight songs that resonate with such feelings, ReoNa once again delivered a 'Yorimichi' time that accompanies each person's daily life with her 'songs.'
