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.

黒崎真音 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ワタシのハート しっぽのよう
ふわふわと本音をこぼすの
コソコソ話の授業中
先生にコン ってこづかれて
くしゃくしゃと髪をさわるクセ
なにげないその時間が
よーいドンのチャイムが響いたら
いちもくさんに パンを買いにいくアナタ
ああ! あの娘(こ)になれたら!
...夢のまた夢ですね
どんな呪文(まほう)も勝てませんの
おちゃめな八重歯 覗くたびに
もも色のそよかぜ... ふわふわ
教室のすみ しらない娘(こ)と
親密なムード? ヤキモチです!
ウソがつけないイキモノです
24時間ずーーっと...
なんて欲張りかな?
よーいドンのチャイムが響いたら
いちもくさんに しがみつきたいのアナタ
ああ! 子猫になれたら!
とがらせた唇で...
...なんて夢を見てるの
The lyrics of K・O・N♡ by 黒崎真音 depict a shy girl who is lost, both physically and emotionally. She compares her heart to a tail, which reveals her true feelings in a soft and delicate manner. She feels overwhelmed by the monotony of her daily routine and is mesmerized by the ordinary moments that others take for granted. The girl longs for a change in her life and imagines herself as a confident and carefree person who does not conform to societal norms. She daydreams of spending her days buying bread or even becoming a kitten, living a simple yet fulfilling life. However, she knows that these dreams are unrealistic and can never come true.
Throughout the song, the girl's insecurities and self-doubt are evident, as she watches others around her with a mixture of envy and admiration. She feels out of place in the social environment and cannot engage in conversations with her classmates without feeling nervous. She wishes to have the confidence to be herself and not be ashamed of her quirks. The song highlights the frustration and longing for acceptance felt by those who do not fit into societal standards.

For a second I thought this was related to the anime K-On!. Honestly, it still sounds like what Maon Kurosaki song would be if it were made for the show.
