Message from Ayumu Murase:

To all of you who have always supported me. I, Ayumu Murase, announce that as of April 30, 2023, I will be leaving VIMS, the agency I have worked for the past 13 years, to launch my own private agency, ASTER NINE, and become independent as of May 1, 2023.

When I made this decision, I talked with the president, manager, and all the staff members about various things. I am very glad that they gave me their warm support and encouragement after that. VIMS is an important place where I have learned many things. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you very much!

With this feeling of gratitude in my heart, I will continue to work diligently on each and every one of my jobs from now on. Thank you for your continued support. And I hope you will continue to patronize those involved with VIMS in the future.
