i Still remember "lets start world war 3" specially that line : Grab them by the Pussy" Line haha. and I hope they would make one with unity as a theme again like that at the end of the Song

I Really miss them xD

After years of being inspired by Genki Sudo and WORLD ORDER, I’ve recently gone back to analyze two of their most philosophically heavy tracks: “CENSORSHIP” (2021) and “Neo Samurai” (2025).

These works felt like a departure from the poetic and unity-focused themes of songs like Permanent Revolution and Multipolarity. Upon digging into the lyrics, Genki’s recent political activity, and the surrounding imagery, a clearer ideological shift emerged.

This post contains both the literal translations of the songs and contextual interpretations based on recent years of rhetoric, symbolism, and philosophical positioning.

CENSORSHIP (2021)

架空の知らせにさよなら
Farewell to fictional news

気づきを君に伝えたら
If I could pass on this realization to you

TOO SWEET TO EAT / TO CHEAT, TO TWEET
(English phrases in the song)

検閲
Censorship

答えにならない答えを繰り返すのさ
They keep repeating answers that aren’t answers

真実なんていつか作られているものさ
Truth is always something eventually fabricated

言葉にできない言葉は黒く塗れるのさ
Words that can’t be spoken are blacked out

紙切れなんていつか無くしてしまうものさ
Documents will eventually disappear too

Contextual Interpretation:

When it first came out, CENSORSHIP felt like stark red-pill imagery, but I realized I am not well versed in Japanese culture (I'm not an expert). Was it just using the iconic Matrix imagery naïve from the implications of vaccine skepticism, manosphere and QANon? I had many of Genki Sudo's tweets translated, and found tweets opposing WHO treaties, promoting vaccine skepticism, and defending speech under the guise of sovereignty - it reads as a direct philosophical indictment of institutional authority.

• "Fictional news" echoes “fake news” rhetoric, but through a postmodern lens.

• The repetition of “answers that aren’t answers” aligns with distrust in bureaucratic language—a theme Genki has echoed politically.

• The entire song reads like an awakening moment, a red-pill narrative arc told through abstract imagery.

At the time, I was unsure. Now, it’s clearer: CENSORSHIP is a declaration of epistemic rebellion.

NEO SAMURAI (2025)

Japanese lyrics:

星はめぐり空見上げ 真理の刃を掲げよ  
おのれ変えて世界変わる 振動数を整えよ  
コペルニクスありがとう 地動説よサヨナラ  
日の本から生まれて 揺るがぬ大地に立つ誇り  
ガリレオ答え夜空に 天は周り続ける  
光の速さ変わらず 動かぬ我らの証拠なり  

未来見つめて  
夢を思い出そう  
Let’s change your life  
Be yourself  

武士道とは死ぬことと見つけたり  
されどそれはただ死を恐れぬというにあらず  
己が道を極め 名を惜しみ  
誇りを持ちて生きることこそ  
武士の真なる生き様にて候

Literal Translation:

The stars revolve—look up and raise the blade of truth
Change yourself, and the world changes. Align your frequency.
Thank you, Copernicus. Farewell, heliocentric theory.
Born of Japan, standing proud on unwavering ground.
Galileo answers in the night sky—the heavens continue to turn.
The speed of light remains constant—proof that we remain unmoving.

Gaze into the future.
Let’s remember our dreams.
Let’s change your life.
Be yourself.

Bushidō is found in dying,
But not merely in not fearing death.
Rather: to master your path, to protect your name.
To live with pride—
That is the true way of the warrior.

Contextual Interpretation:

At first glance, Neo Samurai seemed like a return to form—philosophical, stoic, poetic. But now that Genki has openly opposed COVID vaccines, WHO pandemic policy, and echoed Deep State conspiracy narratives (sometimes aligned with Trump’s own rhetoric), Neo Samurai begins to sound less like an introspective koan and more like a doctrinal statement.

• The Copernicus/Galileo references now read like symbolic rejection of institutional science - not anti-science per se, but a return to self-centered truth frameworks.

• "Align your frequency" is no longer just metaphysical; it echoes wellness sovereignty rhetoric that overlaps with anti-vax/anti-globalist circles.

• The Bushidō passage, once about internal discipline, now feels like ideological armor - an ethical code for those resisting perceived global control.

Final Thoughts

I love watching Permanent Revolution. Genki went from Japan to Korea to China, handed them a simple truth - We Are All One - and they joined in unity. At the end, a Western man reads the paper, smirks, and pockets it, as if to steal a truth that could unify the east.

But now, that same Genki seems to view unity as naive, and resistance as sacred.

What once felt like spiritual awakening has hardened into philosophical militancy - rooted in sovereignty, suspicion, and solitude.

I still respect what Genki was. I may even understand what he’s becoming.

But the journey from “We Are All One” to “Raise the blade of truth”

That deserves to be seen clearly.

The boys have arrived at UAE, they are complete once again although i havent seen keisuke yet (possibly late arrival) or we could see a 6 man formation this time

Have a nice day ;)

Are there any japanese websites (with international shipping) that I could check for their stuff? Edit: I got the self titled album :)

So back when His channel had even less videos on it than it does now it had Missing the Missing Beauty, the one with just him and not all of World Order, and another song that had him and two other people on a beach singing. I believe he was playing a ukulele as well, but I cold be mistaken.

He has since deleted all of those since it seems he's using that channel to promote a political campaign. I was wondering if anyone actually had that song because I really loved it and would like to listen to it again.

I've been able to source the lyrics from some obscure twitter thread, after I figured out some words from the text and searched specifically for that. The translation is Google Translate's best attempt, so I have no idea how accurate it is. This comes through M.Takao (at MMktakao) on Twitter who found someone with a Japanese name on YT who had commented on YouTube. Thanks to both.

The English parts like "to cheat, to tweet" weren't transcribed properly, and I'm not really able to pick out most of them. I put in the few I did hear. Input here is welcome!

Enjoy.

Just saw in Tomizo’s story on IG that World Order will perform this october in UAE according to Genki what do you guys think?

This was translated by DeepL, may not be completely accurate.

On April 23, 2025, it was reported that the DPP (Democratic Party For the People) was planning to field Sudo as a candidate for proportional representation in the next Upper House election, causing criticism and ripples on social networking sites. When it was officially announced on May 14 of the same year that Sudo would run for the DPP nomination, some pointed out the contradiction between the party's “science-based policy” and Sudo's negative statements on infection control measures, including the new corona vaccine and wearing masks.

The discrepancy between the party's policy of promoting nuclear power and emergency clauses and Sudo's claims was also pointed out. On April 5 of the same year, just prior to the announcement of his official recognition, he posted on X, citing news reports about health problems after vaccination, “Considering the number of health problems reported, I can't help but wonder about the situation where vaccination is still being administered today.”

The party asked the candidate to submit a written confirmation that he/she “does not violate the party's agreement,” and Sudo announced that he/she had signed it, but he/she did not retract his/her past statements, but only explained that he/she was "transmitting concerns about adverse reactions. Although there were occasions when party officials explained that he was not anti-vaccine and that they had confirmed it with him, criticism continued, and polls by news organizations reported that the DPP's approval rating had fallen and that the selection of the person was one of the reasons for the decline.

On June 30 of the same year, he was interviewed by reporters in Tokyo and said of his past statements regarding vaccines, "My comments have placed a great burden on medical professionals. I sincerely apologize".

In the House of Councilors election held on July 20 2025, the Democratic Party For the People fielded a total of 19 candidates for proportional representation, securing seven seats. Sudo received 61,416 votes, but was defeated as runner-up due to his 8th place vote count.

- He has spoken at anti-vaccine events and lectures and was a special guest at Kazuhiro Nagao's lecture “Corona and Ivermectin”.

- He is sympathetic to the vaccine policies of the Reiwa Shinsei and the Sangen party, and has publicly stated his support for both parties on social networking sites.

- He has participated in the Bipartisan Diet Members Caucus for Vaccine Vaccination of Children and Vaccine Sequelae, and other groups that take a cautious stance on vaccine policy, and has worked to withdraw the obligation to vaccinate children. On September 20, 2022, he participated in the House of Councilors participated in a general meeting held at the House of Councillors, and submitted a proposal to the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare to withdraw the “effort requirement” for vaccination of 5 - 11 year olds, together with Ryuhei Kawada (Rikken Democratic Party), Sohei Kamiya (Sangen Party), and others.

- He is also a member of the anti-vaccine group WCH (World Council for Health), a parliamentary group that advocates against the pandemic treaty.

The rumor is true.

I really want to support this band, but all I can seem to find are their 2012-2014 songs.

I'm just surprised songs like Singularity and Missing Beauty don't have any way of purchasing them. All I could find was that their recent songs are part of a DVD with Performances. I searched on Japanese sites but also only found their older songs.

I rediscovered world order recently when Let's Start WWIII showed up in my recommendations likely due to all the WWIII Soleimani memes prior, that followed by Singularity were my first impressions of World Order.

So from that and a few other music videos I've interpreted them as being about combining upbeat tunes with more from topics for a sort of satirical comedic effect. For example Singularity's lyrics describe one on one quality time with another person, but the music video shows a very corporate robotic group on a business trip to a restaurant. The word Singularity itself generally means the point when technology blue's the line between what is animate and inanimate, alive or artificial.

TL;DR am I looking to deep into this, or is this group a brilliant form of satire?

Is there a way to buy PERMANENT REVOLUTION digitally?

I just decided to search for them on spotify for after a few months and they have some songs listed on spotify, but not everything

The past members of WORLD ORDER known as Kiyoyuki Sakiyama and Ryo Noguchi. Why did they leave the group and what are they doing now?
