Having debuted under Sony Music Records with “D-tecnoLife” in 2005, they have released nine studio albums and over thirty singles, most of them being in the top 5 of the Japanese Oricon Charts. They have sold over three million records worldwide, mostly due to their many anime tie-ins such as “BLEACH”, “Blue Exorcist”, “GUNDAM”, “My Hero Academia” etc.
