In the past, their collaborative song “COLOR” was chosen to be the theme for the anime “Freezing”. On May 13, 2012, they performed for their Chinese fans at the ANIME ROCK CONVENTION in Shanghai, and are looking to do more live performances overseas. They are currently signed to Pony Canyon Inc.. Their major debut single “ambiguous” is the 2nd opening song of the anime "Kill la Kill".
The name "GARNiDELiA" is an portmanteau of "Le Palais Garnier de Maria", which means “Maria's Opera House”, and "Cordelia", the name of an asteroid discovered in toku's birth year.

Maria looks gorgeous in this video. The outfit, hairstyle, makeup, all j-pop singers have a very cool style. Also, she has a very nice voice timbre.
No need to wear tiny clothes, they look very attractive.
Pride is definitely one of my favorite jpop songs
