B'z LIVE-GYM Pleasure 2018 -HINOTORI- is a Pleasure LIVE-GYM by B'z set to take place from July 7, 2018 through a finale on September 22, 2018. The Pleasure tour is the tenth of its kind and is set to commemorate the band's 30th anniversary in the music scene. Notably, it is their first to feature a Japanese word in its title (HINOTORI, or "Phoenix"). Unlike previous anniversary finales, the final show is set to take place at Ajinomoto Stadium, with Nissan Stadium being played on earlier dates.

Starting from the Nissan Stadium concert on August 4, during the "LOVE PHANTOM" segment, Koshi re-enacts the legendary death-defying leap, known as the Phantom Dive, as featured in 1995's "BUZZ!!" Pleasure tour and The Final Pleasure in 2003. Popular single "ALONE" was re-introduced on the same date, with Koshi playing the piano similar to that of "BUZZ!!" in 1995, preceded by Tak's solo of "When You Wish Upon a Star". Finally, another notable change was made for the encore performance of "Brotherhood", where the band moved to a smaller stage to play before moving back to the main stage to finish the remaining songs on the setlist.

A home video release of B'z LIVE-GYM Pleasure 2018 -HINOTORI- is expected to follow in January or February of 2019.
