“FEMM’s” signature song “Fxxk Boyz Get Money” went viral as a strong girls anthem

among American teens. Word quickly spread to Europe, South America, and Asia, and was picked up by “FEMM’s” Agents (FEMM’s fans) including some worldwide influencers. This is how “FEMM” opened up a new decade.

“FEMM” is well-versed in Internet culture, and quickly focused on the “Revival” trend, which is a huge wave right now all over the world.

Their cover album “80’s – 90’s J-POP REVIVAL” was created in the genre of Japanese City Pop, which is also a huge trend right now. This album clearly amused lots of J-pop fans.

These two mannequins and two girls who consist “FEMM” always have shown us the future in their cyber punk universe.

In order to get just one step closer to their tremendous ideal, “FEMM” has declared 2023 to be their “Last Femm-Isation,” using all their remaining time to bring their dreams into reality.

Below, you can find FEMM’s Agency Syndicate’s official announcement that reveals “FEMM’s” idel and their real purpose.

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all “Agents”

Until today, you have always supported FEMM

Please let us take this opportunity to reveal the “truth” of FEMM

What FEMM really stands for is “Far East “Military” Mannequin”

These intelligent dolls were forced to perform proxy wars for humans in their era

RiRi and LuLa were transferred to the present age to change this scenario

When they arrived, their shape (body) of a doll was not accompanied

Only their “memories” reached two human girls, across time and space

These girls sincerely accepted their motives

Fully understood their experience, and accepted their wish to install RiRi and LuLa’s memory data (A.I. = artificial intelligence) in their hearts

This is how these girls and mannequins began to work together as one

It was an action to change the miserable future not only for dolls, but also for humankind

It was a movement to prevent new discrimination and conflicts

To achieve this, the method chosen by the four was “Music” which transcends borders and eras

All of you “Agents” have supported

“FAR EAST “MENTION = Give a warning” MANNEQUIN,” who was a combination of “Heart of a doll that borrows a human form” and “Form of a human pretending to be a doll”

Even though you half-way knew that they were neither a doll nor a human, you have always sent big, big love and watched over FEMM, which was no different from the love you give to a human being

That was the wish and goal for RiRi and LuLa

They have notified their other selfs -Two girls who have grown into women- that their role was completed and they were to return to the future

These two women accepted

There’s not much time left, but FEMM would like to spend time with you as themselves

(We will inform you again about their activity plan for their last year “Last Femm-Isation”)

And after everything is over…in the distant future

Someday, unknowingly you may meet RiRi and LuLa in their real form (as dolls)

Definitely, they will appear again somewhere in the world

Where did they come from?

We will keep that private until the end

Thank you, ’Agents’ for sending so much love to the small existence of “FEMM”, which was only two in the world.  Please continue to pour unchanging love to those “other than yourself” around you

May the world be a peaceful place for all beings

And let the peace last forever

FEMM’s Agency Syndicate
