What this is
Do As Infinity is a beloved Japanese rock duo formed in 1999, consisting of vocalist Tomiko Van and guitarist Ryo Owatari. The group rose to prominence in the early 2000s with a string of hit singles including 'Fukai Mori,' which served as an ending theme for the anime series Inuyasha and became one of their signature songs. After disbanding in 2005, the duo reunited in 2008 and has continued releasing music and touring ever since, maintaining a devoted fanbase across multiple generations. This May 2026 concert at Yokohama Bay Hall represents a chance to see one of J-pop and J-rock's most enduring acts perform live in an intimate mid-sized venue.
Who should go
This show is ideal for fans of early-2000s J-rock and J-pop, as well as anime music enthusiasts who grew up with Inuyasha and similar series from that era. The atmosphere at Do As Infinity concerts tends to be warm and nostalgic, drawing a loyal crowd of long-time fans in their 30s and 40s alongside younger listeners discovering the band through anime. International visitors with a love of Japanese rock or anime soundtracks will find this a genuinely moving live experience. Arrive early to pick up limited merchandise, which typically sells out before doors open.

Yokohama Bay Hall is a mid-sized live music venue with a capacity of approximately 1,500, typically configured as a standing floor with some elevated areas at the rear. Doors generally open around one hour before showtime, and bags larger than A4 may be subject to a bag check at the entrance. The venue is cash-friendly for drinks and merchandise, though some counters accept IC cards — bring some yen to be safe. Yokohama Bay Hall is located in the Kannai area, close to Yokohama's Chinatown and the waterfront, making it easy to combine the evening with dinner nearby.
