On December 28th, Quruli announced on their�official�site that the drummer Tanaka Yuji will withdraw from the band. �Tanaka was with the band for�only�half a year.

According to the announcement, the reason of his�withdrawal�is that "We have made this�decision after many times of discussions between the members including the staffs. �After these discussions, we figured that this would be the best way for everyone to step forward".

Though Quruli was active as a two-member band since 2007 after several different member changes, three more members (Tanaka Yuji, Yoshida Shonen, Fan Fan) joined the band at the end of June. �The group just finished their 1st tour as a 5-member band on December 8th.
