While energetically performing live guitar instrumentals, he released his first metal guitar instrumental EP "Sagittarius" in September 2015 and his second EP "Eclipse" in June 2016, both limited to live venues.

He also became active as an arranger, arranging the song "Ai ga Mienai" for d-project's 1st AL "d-project with ZARD".
He also performed as a band member for ZARD's 25th and 30th anniversary concerts, and supported Marty Friedman on his tour and in classical concerts.
