Content
OKAME is the post-CHAI project of twin frontwomen MANA and KANA, launched in 2025 as a new musical chapter built around “revolution through music.” Japanese press has described the project as a fresh departure from their previous band sound, with a genre-crossing approach that rebuilds their pop sensibility in a new context.
After CHAI’s 2024 breakup, MANA and KANA again took up the mic and instruments and started OKAME in September 2025: Rooftop frames it as ex.CHAIのMANA・KANAによる新プロジェクトOKAME; MARZEL as 元CHAIの双子フロントマンMANA・KANAによる新音楽プロジェクト“OKAME” pursuing ノスタルポップ (Nostalpop). A SCENE has MANA on the OKAME name and the meaning 音楽で革命を: revolution through music: and on twin identity: born as twins, raised as twins, succeeded as twins.
おかしなきもち (“Okashina Kimochi”) was the first single, digital release October 1, 2025 (Spotify · Apple Music single · DEBUT album version), with the paid fan club Futago Club launching alongside the project (NiEW). The Apple Music credits pane lists Scoobert Doobert as Mixing Engineer, OKAME as Producer, and MANA and KANA as Mastering Engineers — verified on both the standalone single and the DEBUT album cut (track 1).
Luke Francis Walton mixed this track and the full DEBUT album (Feb 2026). Adjacent in the MANA/KANA arc: KOMAGOME: WE CAN'T DOLL and CHAHHAN.
