Ave Mujica, the gothic rock unit from the BanG Dream! universe, dropped the official music video for “The Whole Blue World” today — the brand-new track from their best album Ave Música, which hit stores on 17 June 2026. If you have been sleeping on the group since their anime wrapped earlier this year, this is a good week to catch up.
Ave Música — Best Album Out Now on Bushiroad Music
Ave Música is a 15-track best album that condenses Ave Mujica’s discography into one collection, with one original new composition: “The Whole Blue World.” The album is available in three editions from Bushiroad Music:
- Standard Edition — ¥3,850
- Blu-ray Limited Edition — ¥9,900 (includes live footage from the 6th live concert Ulterius Procedere filmed in Tokyo)
- Limited Edition Special Box — ¥15,400 (adds five acrylic character charms, a fabric poster, and a special collectors’ box)
Standout tracks in the collection include fan favourites “KiLLKiSS,” “Symbol I : △,” “DIVINE,” “Black Birthday,” and “Octagram Dance” — a setlist that spans Ave Mujica’s darker, more theatrical range in the BanG Dream! catalogue.

Who Is Ave Mujica?
Ave Mujica is a five-member unit within the BanG Dream! franchise, each member performing under a masked alter-ego persona. The unit — Sakiko Togawa (Obivionis), Uika Misumi (Doloris), Mutsumi Wakaba (Mortis), Nyamu Yutenji (Amoris), and Umiri Yahata (Timoris) — built their fanbase through the Ave Mujica anime that aired earlier this year, and won fans over with their gothic-inflected rock sound that sets them apart from BanG Dream!’s brighter acts.
What’s Ahead for Ave Mujica and BanG Dream!
The second half of 2026 is stacked for the franchise:
- BanG Dream! Ave Mujica: prima aurora — the theatrical film continuing where the anime left off — premieres in Japan in Fall 2026. An international release via Crunchyroll has not been confirmed yet but is widely anticipated.
- Live Tour “Virtus” — October 24–25, 2026 at Keio Arena Tokyo.
- International Tour — Taipei dates confirmed for August 8–9, 2026.
- MyGO!!!!! sequel anime — the sister band’s follow-up season is slated for January 2027.
- BanG Dream! Our Notes — a new mobile game with global availability planned for 2026; no confirmed Singapore release date yet.
Last words
There is no Singapore date on the Virtus tour just yet — but Taipei in August is close enough that fans in Singapore may want to keep tabs on the official BanG Dream! site and Ave Mujica’s social channels for any additional international stops. The prima aurora film is the bigger watch: with Crunchyroll holding SEA streaming rights for the franchise, an English-subtitled release for Singapore viewers looks likely. For now, Ave Música is available to import, and “The Whole Blue World” is streaming on the official Ave Mujica YouTube channel.
