Guitarium

guitarium is the second studio album by miwa. It was released on March 14, 2012, in two editions: a first press limited edition (CD+DVD) and a regular edition (CD only).

The album's title is a coined word that combines "guitar" with "aquarium" and was given the meaning that the album consists of songs with various tastes like fish in an aquarium. The song "Ikutsu ni Nattemo" is the theme song provided for the live action adaptation of Ouran High School Host Club. The song "Futari no Saturday" is the theme song provided for Fuji Television's Mezamashi Saturday. The song "Cotton no Kisetsu" is an image song for the COTTON USA. The song "Chasing hearts" was featured as the opening theme for the animated theatrical film Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos. The song "Clair de Lune" was featured as the opening theme for Nintendo 3DS video game Rhythm Thief & the Emperor's Treasure. The song "FRiDAY-MA-MAGiC" is the theme song provided for TBS drama Ouran High School Host Club.

The first press limited edition comes with a DVD containing about 30 minutes of footage from the concert held at Zepp Tokyo on December 24, 2011, and a 28-page color booklet. It also includes an advance ticket reservation leaflet for the tour, miwa concert tour 2012 "guitarium".

The album managed to win a third place on the Oricon's album charts and first place on the Billboard album chart during its first week of release. It also received gold certification from the RIAJ.
