Kahadio (Kadio Shirai), the drummer of ALI, has been arrested, but the cause has not been revealed yet. A “scandal” is mentioned on ALI’s official website, but what the word precisely denotes is unknown.
The case is under investigation, and it has been promised that Kahadio will be dealt with appropriately. The anime’s schedule has not been hampered as Funimation will be streaming it as per schedule. An opening theme will be decided later.
