______________________________________________________In March 1998 the band was founded by vocalist Asuyu (ex- AZALEA) and bassist Yuu in Nagoya, Japan. The band released their first demo tape in August 1998, while experiencing lineup changes. One year after their start, Seika joined as their drummer. By summer, the new guitarists Kamiyu and Mikoto had joined and thus completed their well known lineup.

The band was very popular with their music after releasing for limited copies, always had a second press of more than the previous copies. Held lots of tour and featured in VHS as well, I think twice.

However, the success of the band was short lived, and on March 28, Asuyu left the band. This sudden change would decide the future of Jakura. After a short break, the band found their new vocalist, Sai, formerly known as Miyamichi of the Nagoya band S. With this, the band restarted their activities in June 2002.

Despite the successful lineup change Jakura announced in early 2003 the intention to disband. The members later explained this was due to the fact that they felt they had accomplished everything they had wanted to do. The band’s final show was on June 9th, 2003 at NAGOYA HEARTLAND.

Nagoya Kei..hmm..no wonder I loved the band in one go!! And I thought they might be like La'Mule ~ Medical Kei. For Nagoya Kei one cannot easily generalise unless one is too well heard in the variety of Nagoya Kei bands, it's recognizable by its origin there in Nagoya because it isn't a particular type but just a particular place! Do I need to say that “please listen to them"? XDD I know everyone surely will! XD
