昨年11月、(直前での決断で)LUNATIC FESTに参加できた。行って良かったし、特に初日に真矢がステージに現れた瞬間を体感できたことは本当に良かった。まさか2日目がバンド全員が揃って立つ姿を見る最後の機会になるとは、当時は知る由もなかった。安らかに眠れ、真矢。2025年11月のLUNATIC FESTで、彼がバンドメンバーと共にステージに立つ姿を見られたことに感謝している。ご家族、ご友人、そしてLUNA SEAの他のメンバーの皆様に心よりお悔やみ申し上げます。数えきれないほどの貴重な思い出をありがとう。
Back in November, I was able to attend LUNATIC FEST (last moment decision). I'm glad I decided to go and being able to experience that moment when Shinya walked out (especially on day 1). Little did we know day 2 would be the final time we'd see the entire band standing together. Rest in peace, Shinya. I am grateful we were able to see him on stage with his bandmates at LUNATIC FEST in November 2025. My deepest condolences to his family, friends, and the other members of LUNA SEA. Thank you for the countless precious memories.

The south vent fountain jetted up to over 1300 feet (400 meters) while the north vent reached about 800 feet (250 meters) at their highest. Maximum effusion rate reached about 1000 cubic yards per second (770 cubic meters per second) during highest fountains around 2 pm HST.
Episode 42 ended at 11:38 pm HST. The south vent faltered and then jetted just after 11:34 p.m. Narrow jets erupted from the south vent in the last 2 minutes. The north vent dropped slowly at this time and also jetted in the last minute.
HVO: Episode 41 of lava fountaining in Halemaʻumaʻu began at the summit of Kīlauea at 11:10 a.m. HST on January 24.

This fountaining was preceded by several days of significant precursory activity that included cyclic spatter and dome fountains from both the north and south vents that fed large lava flows on the crater floor including a flow from the south vent that reached 1,000 meters (3,300 feet) in length.
Sustained lava fountains erupting from the north vent are currently reaching heights of more than 200 meters (660 feet) and feeding a lava flow on the crater floor. Intermittent spatter continues from the south vent.
The main video feeds have no audio; we were feeding audio into the combined output of this stream (Yolobox to streaming ingests).
HVO update: Episode 40 ended at 604 pm HST after 9.7 hours of eruption from the north vent. The south vent was not active during the high fountain phase. Lava flows covered about one half to two thirds of the Halemaʻumaʻu crater floor.
