KOIAI's live Blu-ray, KOIAI LIVE TOUR 2026 'Starting Over' in TOKYO -HEAVY KAWAII FES 2026-, came out on Wednesday, October 28 on Ferment Label. It holds all 21 songs of the band's set on the opening day of HEAVY KAWAII FES 2026 at Meijiza in Tokyo on Friday, July 31, a show that was also the Tokyo date of KOIAI LIVE TOUR 2026 'Starting Over', a five-city tour of Japan. It comes in two editions: a limited edition with a B5-size, 48-page photo book (FRMT-010, 9,500 yen including tax) and a standard edition with the Blu-ray alone (FRMT-011, 7,500 yen including tax). To mark the release, signing sessions are held at Tower Records Nagoya PARCO on Tuesday, November 10 and at Tower Records Abeno Hoop on Wednesday, November 11, while the Shinjuku and Abeno Hoop stores run a panel exhibition and the Shibuya store hands out special signed receipts until Monday, November 2.

All 21 songs: every track from the four EPs, plus One More Chance Is Enough

The 21 songs open with "Starting Over" and close with "One Way or Another". Every one of the 20 songs on the four EPs listed in the band's official discography, Deep Indigo, Deep Love, Come see me and Starting Over, is played, and to them is added "One More Chance Is Enough", which is on none of the EPs.

The Meijiza show was the opening day of HEAVY KAWAII FES 2026, and it doubled as the Tokyo date of the five-city tour behind the fourth EP, Starting Over, released on July 15. A live video of "A New Picture" from the show went up on the band's official YouTube channel on August 30.

On October 21, Gekirock published an interview in which the members look back on the tour and the festival, together with a video message.

Signing sessions in Nagoya on November 10 and in Osaka on November 11, with passes first-come to buyers at each store

The signing sessions take place in the in-store event space of Tower Records Nagoya PARCO on Tuesday, November 10 and of Tower Records Abeno Hoop in Osaka on Wednesday, November 11. Nagoya starts at 18:30 (gather at 18:10) and Osaka at 19:30 (gather at 19:10).

Each session needs a signing pass. From the arrival of the stock on Wednesday, October 28, each store gives one pass per copy to buyers of either edition there, first come, first served, with priority for those who reserved. Passes are limited and stop when they run out. The members sign the jacket of the Blu-ray you bought, so it has to be brought on the day.

Tower Records Shinjuku and Abeno Hoop hold a panel exhibition from Tuesday, October 27 to Monday, November 2, and buyers during that period receive a numbered ticket for a draw for the panels. The winning numbers are posted on each store's news page and X account from Friday, November 6. At Abeno Hoop a buyer receives either a signing pass or a draw ticket, not both. Over the same period Tower Records Shibuya issues a special receipt printed with signatures and a message, one per purchase.
