Bandai Namco goes all in for a new 2D music project with visual-kei rock at its core. Welcome Visual Karma (to not confuse with VISUAL PRISON).
Introduction
Visual Karma is an original 2D music project created by Bandai Namco (IDOLiSH7 and THE IDOLM@STER SideM).
The focus is all on visual-kei rock music (provided by visual-kei rock artists Midorikawa You from 0.1gの誤算 (0.1g no Gosan) and bo_ya from the Raid.), bringing in a cast that mixes newcomers with highly experienced veterans.
Synopsis
It’s a not-so-distant future. The band performance show “God of Band” was established as “huge content”, with the world being enthusiastic about the beauty and quality of the performers taking part in it.
But people don’t know.
That they are playing while absolving their sins.
Those who stop playing will fall as beautiful sinners.
In order to make his wish come true, the music of life begins to fulfill his jet-black fate.
