In March he released his second mini-album NeΦ Vocalism. Around the same time it was announced that he would form a new group called 3Peace☆Lovers with Hayato Nikaido and ZE:A's Ha Min Woo.

3Peace☆Lovers

3Peace☆Lovers (3PL) is a special group created by Vomos who was also in charge of Nico Nico Video's group √５ (Root 5) and Sekihan (赤飯). 3PL's aim is to overcome the limits of genres, land borders and languages to create a new kind of entertainment. Their ultimate goal was to do an Asia tour in 2013.[6]

Current members of the group are Yoshihide Sasaki, Hayato Nikaido and ZE:A's Min Woo. They respectively represent the genres of acting/Jpop, visual kei and Kpop.[citation needed] They debuted their first single Virtual Love on June 26, 2012, making it to the 10th place of the Daily Oricon charts a day before its release and to the 25th place in the weekly charts in the first week after release. Their second single Love Evolution was released on November 6 and made it to the second place of the Daily Oricon charts. In the weekly charts it once again ended up on the 25th place. The release of their third single was scheduled on April 30, 2013.[citation needed]
