The live concert "i☆Ris 12th Anniversary Live - First Arena MM (Maji Mite)" to commemorate the 12th anniversary of the voice actress idol unit "i☆Ris" was held on November 4th at Pia Arena MM (Nishi-ku, Yokohama). This was i☆Ris' first live concert at an arena, and Yamakita Saki commented, "This is a new record for attendance in 12 years!", while Wakai Yuki commented, "It took eight years from Budokan, but I'm glad we kept going! What a beautiful view!".

Although it was a new record for attendance, the tickets were not sold out. The members expressed their gratitude to the fans, but also expressed their regret. Yamakita said enthusiastically, "I'm happy that so many people came, but I think we can go even higher! We can still shine!".

The concert began with their debut single "Color", and they performed "Dream Parade", the opening theme of the TV anime "PriPara". They charmed the audience with their intense dancing in songs like "Re: Call" and "One Kiss," and showed off not only their cuteness but also their cool side. Serizawa Yu was in tears during "Thank you forever!", and they performed "Endless Notes" and "Hope no Hana wo" in a soft voice, making this a live performance that expressed the various charms of "i☆Ris." In the encore, they performed "Happy New World☆" and "Ai for you!".

It was also announced at the live performance that the first album as a five-member group will be released on April 30, 2025. This will be their first album in about five years. It was also revealed that the event "Nijikai Sports Day (tentative title)" will be held on March 8, 2025, and that their 10th national tour will begin on May 31, 2025 at Koshigaya Suncity Hall (Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture).
