An Cafe
In 2003, Kanon met vocalist Miku and guitarist Bou on the Internet. They formed a band called An Cafe. Teruki, their drummer, joined in 2004 after quitting Feathers-Blue. In 2007, Bou quit the band, and members Takuya and Yuuki joined.

In 2009, the band decided to go on an indefinite hiatus, and on 4 January they performed their last concert at the Nippon Budokan, in Tokyo. Most of them, including Kanon, started new projects. Kanon stated he could not just do nothing during the downtime, and had always dreamed of creating a music-themed video game.
