(thank to tsubasa for the news)

Kalafinaの解散について
弊社所属のKalafinaは、梶浦由記が2018年2月に契約を満了、続いてメンバーの一部が退社し、
実質上活動をしておりませんでした。
その後弊社では、Kalafinaについて、活動再開を含め、あらゆる可能性を検討してまいりました。
しかしこの度、Kalafinaとしては、活動を再開する事は困難であると判断し、改めてKalafinaの解散を
決断し、お知らせするに至りました。
これまでKalafinaを応援していただき、活動再開を待ち望んでいらっしゃる多くのファンの皆様のご期待に沿えず、大変残念に思います。

Kalafinaのファンの皆様、関係者の皆様には、どうかご理解いただきたく、よろしくお願いいたします。

UPDATE 14/3/2019: Keiko, Hikaru, and Yuki Kajiura have published a message via fictionjuction.com.

In it Keiko and Hikaru say thank you and appologise, an say how they’re happy they were able to meet their fans, singing songs that Miss Kajiura wrote for 10 years, and how they decided to stop walking the path of creating a music together as 3 and decided to walk on their own path of music and they hope their fans could support the path that they’ve chosen.

Y.Kajiura states how was actually surprised when she learned the news of Kalafina disbandment, not halted/hiatus. However she noted that they’ve been together for quite a long time, and that still remembers vividly the day she gave the “Kalafina” name to the group, and how it’s also been quite long since they have any group activity, and that she was really sorry towards the Kalafina fans.

In other news its been announced that Harmony fanclub activities will migrate to Wakana Fan Club.
