RIOT MUSIC Inc. is running a collaboration between Matsunaga Iori — a VSinger signed to the company’s Mugensho Record label — and the Ramen Danbo Kawasaki location, from Friday, September 11 through Monday, September 28, 2026. The campaign offers two limited menu items she devised herself, plus a postcard bearing a foil-stamped reproduction signature.

A Long-Awaited Ramen Collab in Kawasaki, Where the Final Live Takes Place

Ramen Danbo Kawasaki sits in the same city as “IORI MATSUNAGA the LAST LIVE: Last Moment,” her final concert, scheduled for Sunday, September 20, 2026. The ramen collaboration she had long hoped for has come together right as her activities wind down.

On her own X account, Matsunaga Iori shared her excitement that “the dream ramen collab finally happened,” and invited fans to post their impressions and photos with the hashtag “#IORI_暖暮.”

To mark the campaign, a newly drawn illustration by artist Fuji Fujino (@fujino114) was also released, depicting Matsunaga Iori enjoying a bowl of ramen in a visual made specifically for this collaboration.

Two Limited Items: The “Iorin Set” and the “Cho Iorin Set”

The “Iorin Set” (1,800 yen, tax included) pairs back-fat ramen topped with wood ear mushrooms and two sheets of nori with a drink. Customers can choose between Kirin Lemon and Hyoketsu Lemon.

The “Cho Iorin Set” (2,470 yen, tax included) adds four Hakata bite-sized gyoza and a bowl of rice with raw egg for a fuller meal. Choosing Hyoketsu Lemon, an alcoholic drink, adds 100 yen to the set price.

Anyone ordering either collaboration item receives a postcard with a foil-stamped reproduction of Matsunaga Iori’s signature. The bonus ends once the prepared stock runs out, though the collaboration menu itself remains available throughout the period. Ramen Danbo is a Fukuoka-born chain serving tonkotsu ramen with a clean finish, using house-made pure pork bone broth simmered at each location. Further details are also posted on the official Mugensho Record X account.

LAST EP “Timeless Beats” Released September 9

“Timeless Beats,” the final EP released under the name Matsunaga Iori, arrived on Wednesday, September 9, 2026, and is also available on digital music services.

The release collects six tracks reflecting the path Matsunaga Iori has walked and her gratitude to the listeners who came along with her. The catalog number is RMI-0031 and the price is 3,300 yen (tax included). Full details are available on the dedicated page.

What’s Next: Final Live “Last Moment” on September 20

On Sunday, September 20, 2026, “IORI MATSUNAGA the LAST LIVE: Last Moment” will be held at SUPERNOVA KAWASAKI as the culmination of her career. The show will present songs from across roughly six years of activity, performed entirely with a live band. Streaming tickets are on sale now.

Matsunaga Iori is a rock-oriented virtual artist who began performing in September 2020, primarily on YouTube. Through singing streams, 3D model live performances and an active release schedule, she expanded her reach both at home and abroad, appearing in official programming at Japan Expo Thailand 2024 — one of the largest Japan-focused exhibitions in Thailand — and at “XNAMBA MUSIC FESTIVAL -showcase-,” an event held within Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai in May 2025. The collaboration continues past the final live show, running through Monday, September 28.

Analysis and Outlook

Saving a long-wished-for ramen collaboration for the final stretch of her career reflects real care on the part of the team sending her off. Choosing a shop in Kawasaki, the same city as the concert venue, naturally creates a route fans can work into their trip to or from the show, tying the whole day together. Virtual artist food collaborations usually land at large venues in central Tokyo, so linking the campaign to the concert’s geography is an idea other artists could readily borrow. How she closes out roughly six years of activity, at the September 20 final show, is the thing to watch.
