The May 12th 2002 leaves a new mini-album, Rodeo , but the group announces its separation a few weeks later (the June 8th), after an ultimate concert the September 22nd with the Shibuya AX . Miyabi announces whereas it launches out in a career solo and modifies its noun of scene in miyavi , benefitting from the occasion to change its style as well artistic as visual, become less Visual kei, less Gothic and more Punk (with force Tatouage S and Piercing S). Complete, extravagant on scene, but reserved artist on his private life, miyavi also tested himself with the Cinéma with the main role of the film Oresama .
