ミサルカ (Misaruka) are about to release their new mini-album, titled “-Ancient ReBORN-“, on July 9, 2014!
The album will be released through Starwave Records, and even though the official release date is set for early July you can secure your copy early by purchasing it at live shows starting June 6 in 池袋CYBER (IkebukuroCYBER).

雪 (Yuki) is the owner and driving force behind Arlequin.
She originally started the project in 2009 as a photographer under the name of Arlequin Photography, but developed an interest in journalism and translation ever since. Because of these interests interviews and reviews were added to the project, until it eventually hit the limits as a "photographer" in 2021, and Arlequin Magazine was added to the mix.
雪 (Yuki) is a native Dutch speaker with a graphic design degree, which means she is also the main person behind Arlequin Creations.
After all these years she is still the main person who does interviews the interviews and live photos that you see on Arlequin, but also a large chunk of the reviews and behind-the-scenes work and communication goes through her.
She speaks Dutch and English on a native level, but also understands Japanese and German.
