Gen Hoshino to hold commentary tour, "Gen Hoshino and Santa Yamagishi's Japan Audio Commentary Tour"
Gen Hoshino will hold a commentary tour, "Gen Hoshino and Santa Yamagishi's Japan Audio Commentary Tour," in February 2026, exclusively for members of his official membership site, "YELLOW MAGAZINE+."
"Gen Hoshino and Santa Yamagishi's Japan Audio Commentary Tour" is an "audio commentary journey" where Hoshino and his close friend, filmmaker Santa Yamagishi, will visit hall venues in six cities across Japan. The tour, themed "a journey for two," will look back on various video works by Hoshino that Yamagishi directed over their 20-year friendship.
In 2023, Hoshino held an event titled "'Hikari no Ato / Seimeitai' Single Release Commemorative 'Live' Commentary," where he provided real-time commentary while watching bonus footage. At that event, he mentioned, "Someday, I want to do a tour that's just live commentary." That wish will finally be fulfilled with "Gen Hoshino and Santa Yamagishi's Japan Audio Commentary Tour."
The first round of the ticket lottery will begin on December 2 through "YELLOW MAGAZINE+."
