Your reaction series on Doll$Boxx has been very enjoyable. As for Tomo-zo, very underrated but she has become one of my favorite guitarists. In Doll$Boxx she gets to shine more since this band is more of a guitar centered band than GS and Tomo-zo steps up to the plate. Everything she does is well thought out not to mention the variety skillful techniques she can use. One thing I love about her is that she likes to use dissonance chords so I would have to assume she has a lot of jazz influences. And how can you not enjoy her almost constant smile when she plays?

Have to agree with you there, definitely one of Tomo-zo's best solos if not the very best! Check out the 2018 live version if you want to see the delivery. She nails it.
The title is literally the English phrase "role-playing life" rendered in katakana which is the writing system used for foreign loan words in Japanese. Because Japanese lacks 'L', has about 1/3rd the vowels of English, and most of the sounds are consonant-vowel pairs the final result doesn't sound much like the original English. Life becomes ライフ (Ra+ i +fu) for example.
The title is ロールプレイングライフ (ro-o-ru-pu-re-i-n-gu-ra-i-fu”), which is the Japanese pronunciation of “Roll Playing Life” The opening drum beat sounds EXACTLY like the opening to BOMBER by MOTÖRHEAD.
every solo Tomo-zo plays is the best one at that time she is such a highly under rated guitarist she only ever cuts lose for short periods in each song never takes the spotlight unless she is also singing then it is her personality not her playing that takes the moment she is such a cool pretty little alien
Look for GACHARIC SPIN, “Instrumental” live, to see what TOMO-ZO can do with an extended solo. Also watch TOMO-ZO play with MARTY FRIEDMAN on Rock Fujiyama. Here is the link to the first of two episodes - ua-cam.com/video/sErBeBC76Ys/v-deo.htmlsi=kP5x0ynIS-xMwQ5N

Right in this music video I realized that I had a crush on Koga. She's criminally cute here 😍
