MAN WITH A MISSION Set for May “MARKING NEW GROUND” Tour

MAN WITH A MISSION will embark on the “MARKING NEW GROUND” tour this May, bringing their high‑ octane live show to cities across North and South America. The Japanese rockers are hitting markets they have never headlined before. Designed as the first step in a bold new chapter for the band, the tour sees the wolfpack deepening their global footprint while connecting with a new generation of fans who discovered them through their iconic anime theme songs.

The May run begins in the United States with a stop in San Francisco on May 14 at August Hall, followed by a special appearance at Los Angeles’ ZIPANGU Festival on May 16. From there, MAN WITH A MISSION heads to Mexico for two long‑ awaited dates: Monterrey’s Show Center Complex on May 19 and Mexico City’s legendary Foro Teambro on May 21. The tour then moves further south to Chile for a show at Santiago’s Coliseum Theatre on May 24, before closing out in Brazil at São Paulo’s Carioca Club on May 27.

“MARKING NEW GROUND” focuses on the breadth of MAN WITH A MISSION’s catalogue, spotlighting the songs that have defined their international rise. Central to the live set are three of their most recognizable tracks: “Kizuna no Kiseki,” the explosive collaboration opening theme for Demon Slayer, “Merry‑Go‑ Round,” which powered the fifth season of My Hero Academia and “Raise your flag,” the adrenaline‑ charged opening theme to Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron‑ Blooded Orphans. These songs, along with fan favourites from across their discography, anchor a show built for both die‑hard followers and new fans arriving from the anime world.

Guitarist, vocalist and rapper Jean‑Ken Johnny sees the “MARKING NEW GROUND” tour as a statement of intent for where MAN WITH A MISSION is headed next:

“We are very proud to announce and more than looking forward to this upcoming tour. Hope to see our fellow fans and new friends at each and every country, especially the two new areas which are the first time for us to visit, Chile and Brazil. Those who always waited for us, those who discovered us recently, thank you all, we are The MAN WITH A MISSION and here we come.”
