Demise seems an odd choice of word.
Album title makes about as much sense as one would expect from Engrish. Is there any reason they're releasing this now? Is it a birthday anniversary or something? |

@Lemonchest Perhaps you may want to reread the article a bit more carefully, especially concerning the reason of their 'breakup'...

Perhaps you may want to elaborate. "their demise" would imply they both died, as opposed to saying "11 years after Okazaki's death." Or perhaps you refer to my referring to the latter part, in which case unless it's a Japanese thing I'm unaware of any significance 11 years after the event would hold. |

I would think the demise refers to the named 'duo', Melocure. Hard to come back if other half vanishes permanently...

I think "breakup" is an odd choice considering they didn't separate and each go their separate ways as solo singers, but that one of them passed away. Breakup kind of implies that at least one of the parts decided to walk away. The title also gives the impression that both of them died. Maybe "11 years after Okazaki's Demise" wouldn't be so misleading?

This is all a bit too semantic, really.

Yes, this is what I was referring to. I understand the shortcomings of the term and also 'breakup,' but I think the meaning is clear nonetheless. |
