Around this time, KISAKI gives an interview in Barks magazine discussing his 30th anniversary activities and album trilogy. In this interview he discusses how the 3rd period of MIRAGE came about as a means to celebrate their 25th anniversary. Originally, KISAKI made it seem like this would be a session performance or an event, but vocalist Akira said he was willing to do a more legitimate performance. This eventually evolved into recording a full album and recruiting new members to fill out the 5-man lineup. The interview also stated that this period of activities was only supposed to last for a year, which was not shared at the start of their revival.
3rd period MIRAGE presumably ends
