Kurosaki Maon promoting her Memorial Album "MEMORIES LAST" (2026)

Kurosaki Maon (黒崎真音) was a Japanese pop singer, idol, lyricist, and model. She was scouted after she started performing in 2008 at the Dear Stage "Live & Bar" in Akihabara. She was later signed by NBC Universal Entertainment Japan and recorded a concept album for the anime HIGH SCHOOL OF THE DEAD in 2010.

In 2011, Kurosaki started working with the music Super Group ALTIMA. She focused more on recording her solo material, but continued to work with ALTIMA in conjunction. In 2018, she made her debut as an actress in the Japanese live action BLOOD-CLUB DOLLS.

On September 22, 2020, it was announced that Kurosaki Maon and Kanda Sayaka had teamed up to form the ALICes unit through the unit's official twitter account. Due to Sayaka's death in 2021, the duo came to a hold.

On February 28, 2023, it was announced via her management that Kurosaki had passed away on February 16th. They relayed that Kurosaki had collapsed in the middle of a livestream concert in 2021, after which her doctors found an epidural hematoma. Since then she had to fight with the disease, and unfortunately, she passed away after her health became worse.
