Mr. Children (misutachirudoren, Misuta Chirudoren), commonly referred to by their contracted nickname "Misu-Chiru" (misuchiru)) is a Japanese pop rock band formed in 1989 by Kazutoshi Sakurai, Kenichi Tahara, Keisuke Nakagawa, and Hideya Suzuki. They made their major debut in 1992. As a group, they are one of the best selling artists in Japan and one of the most successful Japanese rock artists, having sold over 50 million records and creating the "Mis-chil Phenomenon" (misuchiruXian Xiang ) in the mid-1990s in Japan. They held the record for the highest first week sales of a single in Japan for 15 years, with 1.2 million copies of their 10th single "Namonaki Uta" (Ming monakiShi ), have 30 consecutive number 1 singles, replaced Glay as the all-male band (with 3 or more members) to have the most number 1 albums on the Oricon charts, and won the Japan Record Award in 1994 for "Innocent World" and in 2004 for "Sign".

In 1995, the second half of the Atomic Heart tour started, lasting from January 1 to February 2. Mr. Children also became involved in charity work, doing a collaboration song with Keisuke Kuwata of Southern All Stars. The single "Kiseki no hoshi" (Qi Ji noDi Qiu ) was used as the theme song for the Act Against AIDS campaign, was produced by Mr. Children and written by Kuwata. To promote the single and the campaign, they held a one-month tour from April 18 until May 14, entitled Live UFO '95 Rock Opera "Acoustic Revolution with Orchestra" Kiseki no hoshi (Live UFO '95 Rock Opera "Acoustic Revolution with Orchestra" Qi Ji noDi Qiu ), where the group did cover songs of many English speaking artists such as The Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan. During the tour the group was also filming a documentary/concert movie called Es ~Mr. Children in Film~. It was released in theaters on June 6, 1995, preceded by the group's eight single "Es (Theme of Es)" on May 10, to promote the movie. Two months later the group held an open air tour titled -Hounen Mansaku- Natsu matsuri tour Sora [ku:] (-Hounen Mansaku- Xia Ji ri1995 Kong [ku:]) from July 16 to September 10, during which the ninth single, "See-Saw Game (Yukan na Koi no Uta)" (shisogemu ~ Yong Gan naLian noGe ~ ) was released on August 10.  On February 6, 1996 Mr. Children's tenth single "Namonaki Uta" (Ming monakiShi ) was released, to promote the Japanese drama Pure (piyua) and also for Daio Paper's Elleair (erieru) commercial. The single went on to become Japan's highest first week selling single of all time (which was later broken by idol group AKB48) and is currently Japan's eighth highest selling drama tie-in single. The success of the single was also a surprise for Sakurai, who admitted to spending very little time writing the song. Two months later, on April 5, 1996 the group's eleventh single "Hana (Memento Mori)" (Hua  -Memento-Mori-) was released, followed by their fifth original album Shinkai (Shen Hai ) on June 24 and their twelfth single "Machine Gun o Buppanase (Mr. Children Bootleg)" (mashinganwobutsuFang se -Mr.Children Bootleg-), on August 8. To close the year, the Regress or Progress Tour started and lasted from August 24, 1996 to March 28, 1997. The group visited 14 cities and held 55 concerts.  Mr. Children's 13th single, "Everything (It's You)", was released on February 5, 1997, with the title track used as the theme song to the Japanese drama Koi no Bakansu (Lian nobakansu). A month later, on March 5 Bolero, Mr. Children's sixth album was released. Soon after, rumors started of the group disbanding. Sakurai's reply: "The band will dissolve only when we have no more talent and have relationship problems with each other." Yet the group then decided to take some time off. Nakagawa and Suzuki start a side project band called Hayashi Hideo, and joined by Kenji Fujii from My Little Lover and Sawao Yamanaka from The Pillows, went on a club tour. CANNOTANSWER

Mr Children (misutachirudoren, Misuta Chirudoren), vanligen benämnd av deras kontrakterade smeknamn "Misu-Chiru" (misuchiru)) är ett japanskt poprockband bildat 1989 av Kazutoshi Sakurai, Kenichi Tahara, Keisuke Nakagawa, och Hideya Suzuki. De gjorde sin stora debut 1992. Som grupp är de en av de bäst säljande artisterna i Japan och en av de mest framgångsrika japanska rockartisterna, efter att ha sålt över 50 miljoner skivor och skapat "Mis-chil Phenomenon" (misuchiruXian Xiang ) i mitten av 1990-talet i Japan. De innehade rekordet för den högsta första veckans försäljning av en singel i Japan under 15 år, med 1,2 miljoner exemplar av deras 10:e singel "Namonaki Uta" (Ming monakiShi ), har 30 på varandra följande nummer 1 singlar, ersatte Glay som det allmanliga bandet (med 3 eller fler medlemmar) för att ha flest nummer 1 album på Oricon-diagrammen, och vann Japan Record Award 1994 för "Innocent World" och 2004 för "Sign". 1995 startade andra halvan av Atomic Heart-turnén, som pågick från 1 januari till 2 februari. Mr Children blev också involverad i välgörenhetsarbete, och gjorde en samarbetslåt med Keisuke Kuwata från Southern All Stars. Singeln "Kiseki no hoshi" (Qi Ji noDi Qiu ) användes som ledmotiv till Act Against AIDS-kampanjen, producerades av Mr Children och skrevs av Kuwata. För att marknadsföra singeln och kampanjen höll de en enmånadsturné från 18 april till 14 maj, med titeln Live UFO '95 Rock Opera "Acoustic Revolution with Orchestra" Kiseki no hoshi (Live UFO '95 Rock Opera "Acoustic Revolution with Orchestra" Qi Ji noDi Qiu ), där gruppen gjorde coverlåtar av många engelsktalande artister som The Rolling Stones och Bob Dylan. Under turnén filmade gruppen även en dokumentär/konsertfilm kallad Es ~Mr. Barn i Film~. Den släpptes på teatrar den 6 juni 1995, föregången av gruppens åtta singel "Es (Theme of Es)" den 10 maj, för att marknadsföra filmen. Två månader senare höll gruppen en friluftsturné med titeln -Hounen Mansaku- Natsu matsuri tour Sora [ku:] (-Hounen Mansaku- Xia Ji ri1995 Kong [ku:]) från 16 juli till 10 september, under vilken den nionde singeln, "See-Saw Game (Yukan na Koi no Uta)" (shisogemu ~ Yong Gan naLian noGe ~ ) släpptes den 10 augusti. Den 6 februari 1996 släpptes Mr. Children's tionde singel "Namonaki Uta" (Ming monakiShi ) för att marknadsföra det japanska dramat Pure (piyua) och även för Daio Paper's Elleair (erieru) reklamfilm. Singeln gick vidare till att bli Japans högsta första vecka som sålde singel genom tiderna (som senare bröts av idolgruppen AKB48) och är för närvarande Japans åttonde högst säljande drama tie-in singel. Framgången med singeln blev också en överraskning för Sakurai, som erkände att han spenderat mycket lite tid med att skriva låten. Två månader senare, den 5 april 1996, släpptes gruppens elfte singel "Hana (Memento Mori)" (Hua -Memento-Mori-) följt av deras femte originalalbum Shinkai (Shen Hai ) den 24 juni och deras tolfte singel "Machine Gun o Buppanase (Mr Children Bootleg)" (mashinganwobutsuFang se -Mr.Children Bootleg-), den 8 augusti. För att avsluta året startade Regress or Progress Tour och varade från 24 augusti 1996 till 28 mars 1997. Gruppen besökte 14 städer och höll 55 konserter. Mr Children's 13:e singel, "Everything (It's You)", släpptes den 5 februari 1997, med titelspåret använt som ledmotiv till det japanska dramat Koi no Bakansu (Lian nobakansu). En månad senare, den 5 mars Bolero, släpptes Mr Children's sjätte album. Strax efter började rykten om att gruppen upplöstes. Sakurais svar: "Bandet kommer att upplösas först när vi inte har mer talang och har relationsproblem med varandra." Ändå bestämde sig gruppen då för att ta lite ledigt. Nakagawa och Suzuki startar ett sidoprojektband vid namn Hayashi Hideo, och tillsammans med Kenji Fujii från My Little Lover och Sawao Yamanaka från The Pillows, gav sig ut på en klubbturné.
