ketchup mania was voted "Best Japanese Punk Group" in Shojo Beat's 2007 Music Issue.

In May 2007, the band released their first CD on Japanese major label Toy's Factory, titled "U.R.G.E." and in June 2007, ketchup mania partnered with JapanFiles.com to make their debut in America at A-Kon 18 in Dallas, Texas for 2500 fans.

ketchup mania returned to Japan for non-stop touring, with songs from "U.R.G.E." and their chart-topping CD "Greetings from Tokyo" dominating the set list. In August 2007, they released the follow-up CD "L.O.V.E." and have just announced their return to the USA to perform at Sakura-Con 11 in Seattle, Washington in March of 2008.
