Earlier this year JILUKA already visited Europe and the US with their “K4RMA WORLD TOUR 2024”, but shortly after they already announced -THE RETURN-, and we'd be lying if we said we didn't enjoy their first time so much that we couldn't wait to see them a second time.
During this second time we of course took some photos from their live show. The link to their page on our portfolio can be found in this post!

雪 (Yuki)
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.

RAZOR // Broken Society: SAMURAIソードMAN
“SAMURAIソードMAN” (Samurai Sword Man) is the 12th single in RAZOR’s ever-growing discography. Despite being released in June of 2023 the single touches on an interesting concept that might have been overshadowed entirely by how upbeat and flashy the title track and its music video are.
This review was intended to be written and published much closer to the release date of the single last year, but due to circumstances it kept getting pushed back. The single never left 雪 (Yuki)’s mind (or her playlist) however, so she’s finally talking about it in this review!
