History

In 2011, Shigin singer Yuko Suzuhana,who had been elected Miss Nico Nama ニコ生 in 2011 Niconico Douga Music Festival, recruited Kiyoshi Ibukuro and Daisuke Kaminaga to perform on the NicoNico Chōkaigi stage the following year. In February 2012, the trio officially debuted as Hanafugetsu.

The name symbolizes the image of each member: Suzuhana = Hana (, Flower), Kaminaga = (, Wind), Ibukuro = Mangetsu (, Moon).[2][3] It was derived from the Japanese philosophical and artistic concept of Kachoufugetsu (花鳥風月, flower-bird-wind-moon), which refers to the ability to appreciate and be mesmerized by the beauty of nature. Ibukuro explained that the "missing bird" is the combine sound of the three members together that is now free to fly and dance around their audience. Many of their lyrics are in reference to poetries and natural themes.
