* ShoutOut: The band is really fond of them. They quote Music/TheBeatles in "Fly Again" ("life just comes and goes / tomorrow never knows"), the ''Bible'' in "Emotions" ("you'd always [...] loved your neighbors as yourself"), and the video for "Distance" features an octahedron that looks quite suspiciously like Ramiel from Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion (the song itself seems to sample its scream, or at least features a sample that sounds quite similar, pointing out that it's probably an intentional nod).

Man With A Mission (often spelled MAN WITH A MISSION) is an alternative Japanese band formed in 2010 in Tokyo. Its lineup consists of members Tokyo Tanaka (vocals), Kamikaze Boy (bass), Jean-Ken Johnny (guitar and vocals), DJ Santa Monica (DJ) and Spear Rib (drums). They're pretty unique in that each member constantly wears a differently designed wolf mask. Their music explores a bunch of different genres, mixing pop, hard rock, dance and punk elements. They're mostly known in Japan, but have also briefly toured the US and parts of Europe and were invited as guests to Japan Expo 2012 in France. One of their songs, "Emotions", was used as a theme for HentaiKamen's 2013 live action adaptation. They're better known, though, for being the artists behind "Database", the original opening theme for ''LightNovel/LogHorizon''.
