# ANTHEM’s 35th Anniversary Tour: A Triumph Over COVID-19 in the World of Heavy Metal
## The Journey Amidst Challenges
ANTHEM’s highly anticipated 35th Anniversary Tour, originally set for 2020, was postponed to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the hurdles, the tour successfully wrapped up while adhering to strict infectious disease prevention measures.

The tour kicked off with two performances in Sendai on May 8th and 9th. Initially planned for seven shows, culminating at EX THEATER ROPPONGI in Tokyo on June 5th, it faced setbacks. Due to the extension of Osaka Prefecture’s State of Emergency Declaration, commercial facilities were closed until May 31. However, “ANTHEM’s Holy Land” Club Chitta became the Tour Final.
### Special Guests and Lineup
This tour saw an expanded lineup. The four active members – Naoto Shibata, Akio Shimizu, Yukio Morikawa, Isamu Tamaru – were joined by MAD Ouchi, Tony Maeda, Hidezo Sakamoto at the start of the final leg. Special participation by Homma Daitsugu in Roppongi was confirmed, and a show in Kawasaki was added.
### The Video Work
The video work “ANTHEM 35th ANNIVERSARY TOUR” features the Roppongi and Kawasaki performances. Due to COVID-19 constraints, it wasn't a two-part system but had successive member replacements and appearances.
### A Musical Showcase
ANTHEM presented a dense setlist of 19 songs and Encore, spanning their history from pre-debut to the present. This clearly showcases the band's pride in being “the strongest we are now.” While it's a challenge for any band to make every era of their music equally powerful and beloved by fans, ANTHEM has achieved this rarity. This film is a fitting monument to their achievements.
