Agency Art One Entertainment announced on Tuesday that singer Maon Kurosaki passed away suddenly on February 16 after a worsening of her chronic illness.
Kurosaki underwent emergency surgery for epidural hematoma (bleeding between the skull and the membrane surrounding the brain) in September 2021, after collapsing during the middle of a live-streamed concert earlier that month.
She died on February 16, 2023 following a period of declining health, after being diagnosed with an epidural hematoma in 2021.
On September 22, 2023, the day Kurosaki had debuted, a memorial event had been held with the name Maon Kurosaki Memorial Days Event "Future & Past", at Shirokane Takanawa Selene.
On September 30, 2023, a crowdfunding project was launched by Art One Entertainment to finish the documentary Maon Kurosaki: The Movie "If You Become Me That Day", which was scheduled to be released in Q2 2023, but was left in a state of uncertainty after Kurosaki's death. The documentary was aiming to follow the artist's path from the collapse in 2021, to the reemergence with the live event in July 31, 2022. To provide an insight into the film, a trailer was also released with the crowdfunding announcement, which was originally suggested by Kurosaki herself during a production meeting for the documentary.

ずっと一緒にいた気がするよ
考え過ぎちゃう癖だって
いつも受け止めてくれて
「ありがとう」
Do you think? Do you feel?
This moment's
more than that sweet
大人になっても 10年経っても
いつまでも 続くといいね
I wanna be your side
I wanna see your smile
You make me cheer up,
lift up, keep up
When always got felt down
どんな時だって どんな私だって
わかってくれる Best friends
I'll take you high
I wanna take you fly
Gonna make you cheer up,
lift up, keep up
When always got felt down
さみしくなったら
いつでも呼び出して
その真っ直ぐなeyes 抱きしめるよ
ひんやりとした春風が
ふいに 切なさを運んでくる
あとどれくらい このままで
他愛ない時間 過ごせるのかな?
To keep us "we," keep it real
Time's flying
faster than it seems
普通になってた 日常が
静かに去っても 桜散っても
輝き 色褪せないよ
I wanna be your side
I wanna see your smile
You make me cheer up,
lift up, keep up
When always got felt down
あなたがいたから 今の私がいる
かけがえのない Precious time
I'll let you cry
I wanna get you right
Gonna make you cheer up,
lift up, keep up
When always got felt down
一人じゃないから
いつも思い出して
包み込むようにarms 広げてるよ
Why wanna be your side?
Why wanna see your smile?
You make me cheer up,

When always got felt down
会えなくなっても
