Kachimba members spent days lining up at the airport after their flights were cancelled, but the situation is unmanageable, so we took the decision to abort their appearance this year.

We apologise to the fans who have been looking forward to these stages, but we hope you will understand the situation, and join with us in sending the best wishes to the Kachimba members and the people enduring the elements in Okinawa.
