Konomi Suzuki is currently active across multiple projects: she performs the opening theme 'Recollect' for 'Re:Zero - Starting Life in Another World' 4th season, is one of five vocalists cast as the new diva LAYRA in the 'Belle' immersive live, and is scheduled to perform at the 'AZUR LANE MUSI9 FES.' event in September 2026.
Konomi Suzuki's recent work spans three distinct projects, each announced in 2026. In June, she was confirmed as a performer at the 'AZUR LANE MUSI9 FES.' event, which celebrates the 9th anniversary of the smartphone game Azur Lane. The event, scheduled for September 5 and 6 at Shinjuku Sumitomo Building Triangle Square and Shinjuku Sumitomo Hall, features a live concert called 'AZUR LANE SPECIAL MUSI9 LIVE' on both days. Suzuki is part of the first announced lineup, which also includes Masayoshi Oishi, Yui Ishikawa, Yui Sakakibara, May'n, and Beverly.
Later that month, Suzuki discussed her opening theme 'Recollect' for 'Re:Zero - Starting Life in Another World' 4th season in an interview with Megami Magazine. She described the track as having a mysterious, labyrinthine atmosphere and noted that it was a surprise collaboration with Ashnikko. Suzuki explained that she re-recorded parts of the song after hearing Ashnikko's playful vocals, and that the desert setting of the new season influenced the sound.
In August, Suzuki was announced as one of five vocalists cast as LAYRA, a new virtual artist debuting under Sony Music's Echoes label, for the immersive music live 'Belle'. The other vocalists are miwa, Natsumi Kon, ASCA, and Maria Miki. The announcement also confirmed that the immersive live is a full narrative sequel set five years after the film, with Rira Ikuta and Tomoyo Kurosawa joining the cast.
