Customi Z is a Japanese rock band formed on March 20, 2012, through EBiDAN The Live. The group was originally assembled without an official band name, then received the name "Customize" in May 2012 before adopting the stylized name Customi Z in October 2013, after lineup changes brought in HAMA and saw Kenta Matsui leave the project.
Before their debut, Customi Z drew attention with anisong covers such as "Hare Hare Yukai" and "Secret Base," signaling their goal of becoming a rock band with a strong place in the anime song scene. The group’s sound sits at the intersection of rock, pop rock, and j-pop, with energetic instrumentation and a clear connection to anime-related repertoire. The lineup has included 濱崎謙, 泉大智, 栗原吾郎, 松井健太, and 寺坂尚呂己, and the band officially debuted on August 27, 2014.
Customi Z remains notable for performance-driven rock and for its close relationship to anisong, which makes the group relevant for listeners searching for Japanese rock acts linked to anime music.
