PS Company issued an official statement on RAVE's OHP that guitarist Mikuru passed away at 4:51 A.M. on October 26, 2016. The musician had been diagnosed with an undisclosed illness, and the band entered a hiatus period in August to allow him time to seek treatment and recover. The illness required long-term treatment, but it was always Mikuru's intention to return to band activities. The company and band thank fans for the support they showed to the guitarist. They also state that his relatives were able to attend his wake and funeral.
There will be a farewell meeting and celebration of Mikuru's life for fans in Fukuoka and Tokyo on November 14. Rave members will not be in attendance, but fans are encouraged to bring flowers. Details for those meetings are available on RAVE's OHP.
RAVE members ask fans for continued encouragement during this time, and they promise that they will continue activities full force in memory of Mikuru.
