TK is going to be participating in the third installment of Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra's VS. Series. This is for a CM collab song named Restricted Archive VS. TK (Ling tosite sigure) or another translation I pulled up is Closed Archive VS. TK (Ling tosite sigure). Though officially it is titled Restricted Archive VS. TK (Ling tosite sigure).
Anyway, in Japan CMs are major! They stand for Commercial Message basically, a TV or online advertisement. Having your song featured in a CM for a popular brand (like Toyota, SoftBank, or Coca-Cola) can massively boost an artist's exposure. CM tie-ins often lead to huge mainstream recognition since commercials are seen by millions daily. You can catch the 15-sec CM here, the 30-sec CM, and full CM here.
Restricted Archive VS. TK (Ling tosite sigure) has a music video premiering soon. Premieres June 30, 2025 at 20:00 JST on Youtube. Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra will be present in the chat at the premiere, for those of you who might want to chat. In addition, the song will be available for streaming soon on June 30, 2025 at 24:00 JST.

This CM is for the new MAR017 commercial, a men's personal care brand. The latest series of commercials produced by animation studio MAPPA.
