In 2011, Machico participated in Horipro's 36th Talent Scout Caravan, but lost to Tadokoro Azusa (田所あずさ). However, she and several other finalists were offered a contract with Horipro. She made her music debut in 2012 and in October of the same year held her first solo concert at Rock Maykan.

MACHICO Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
信じるとはそういうことだよ
チクっとするもの
心まで裸にして
準備はイイ？弱いところさえ 全て見せて
光が闇に今 溶けないように (怖がるな)
ハートの火がメラメラ もう誰にも消せないのよ
出来ること全部 試してみればいい
間違えても まだ終わらない
限界の先に何かが待っている気がしてるんだ
もうダメってとこから さぁ一歩踏み出そう
知っているの？ 願いは叶うよ
臆病な自分じゃない 大胆に輝け
生まれ変わる 鏡の前 生まれ変わる
黒を切り裂いて イナズマのように (ためらうな)
ドシャブリの雨の中で 掴んだ拳を掲げて
時を駆け抜けたなら もう決して振り向かないで
指切りしたなら その胸に眠る
奇跡 慌てて叩き起こして
割れた世界を繋ぐ 虹の橋をかけてほしい
運命のイタズラ クスっと笑い飛ばして
乗り越えてよ 君になら出来る
祈りは 君に届いて
耳澄ませば 聞こえるだろう
限界の先に何かが 待っている気がしてるんだ
もうダメってとこから さぁ一歩踏み出そう
お楽しみは さぁここからさ
ハートの火がメラメラ もう誰にも消せないのよ
出来ること全部 試してみればいい
運命さえ乗り越えてみてよ
だって知ってる？ 時を賭けて
だって知ってる？ 指切りしたら
だって知ってる？ 願いは叶うよ

The theme of the song revolves around the idea that while life can be difficult and painful, the rewards of persevering through the hard times and overcoming obstacles are worth the effort.
In the chorus, the lyrics speak about the singer's heart being on fire, a symbol of their passion for their desires and their unwavering determination to achieve them. The verse further emphasizes the idea that one must be willing to show their weak spots to others in order to grow, and that one should not let fear hold them back but instead embrace the unknown and take a step forward in the face of adversity.
Overall, Machico's "Thread a Needle" is a song of hope and encouragement, urging listeners to take risks and have faith in themselves, even when the path ahead may be uncertain or difficult.

@maroXUprising
Oh cool! Finally the full version got posted. Hopefully IF/CH will announce an English release at some point. Didn’t bother to finish the end game just in case they were to have announced it being localized. Honestly loved the new mechanics they added for this entry.
Kinda wish the full OST for Moero crystal was posted on here, like with moero chronicles.
(Also playasia seems to finally have Moero crystal H in physical form for switch with Chinese sub though it’s available for pre-orders)
@FoxForce149
I think the english release will come. They teased it in the last Moero Chronicle livestream a bit. I love this OP, and after a long time I finally found it, so I decided to post it here.
@maroXUprising
Ah yeah IF did a moero chronicles stream last year. It just feels like it’s taking a bit too long for it to officially get any announcements. On top of moero crystal, it would be absolutely awesome to see the other Genkai tokki games come to switch, stuff like castle panzer, seven pirates, and monster monpiece. Especially that one in particular since if I recall correctly that game is available on steam and is localized. Ah and now with mega dimension neptunia on switch, we should be hearing a western release soon too.
Edit: Moero Crystal H finally announced for localization!!!
Pre-orders if the limited edition which is by Eastasiasoft will be up on the 28th of May!!!
@FoxForce149
@@maroXUprising Im happy that we get a english release, but was hopping for a steam version
@maroXUprising
@Underling Linda at least you guys have bullet girls phantasia. I’m jealous that game isn’t on switch.
Excited to touch dem monster waifus on the screen. XD
