A high-velocity arrangement that grabs your ears—the opening theme for the TV anime “SANDA.” yama’s razor-sharp vocals confront the universal question: What does it mean to become an adult? Simply growing older doesn’t make you one, but having youth doesn’t make you a child either.

The song vividly captures the struggle with change and the pains of growth.

It will be available digitally in October 2025, with a CD release in December.

Don’t miss the chance to experience yama’s undeniable coolness!

THE REVO

Written as the opening theme for the TV anime My Hero Academia FINAL SEASON, this song marks the band’s first time handling a series theme in about nine years since “THE DAY” for Season 1 in 2016.

The lyrics, built around the keyword “revolution in the mind,” depict a resolve to overturn one’s values, conveying a level of intensity befitting the story’s final chapter.

With powerful vocals and a solid, driving melody that pushes you forward, it’s a rock number that symbolizes change and hope.

Kento Nakajima’s second single, released in October 2025, is a killer tune where idol appeal and a dark aesthetic fuse together.

As the keyword “Hyper Sexy”—created to express his own identity—suggests, the weighty sound and sleek choreography are seriously cool.

It really captures, through music, a vision of an ever-evolving idol.

Enjoy this track with your eyes and ears!

Live, brilliantlyikimonogakari

Live, brilliantly

This is a new song written by Ikimonogakari as the opening theme for the sixth season of the anime Kingdom.

It will be released digitally in October 2025, followed by a CD single in December.

The expansive sound arrangement, which complements the grand worldview of the anime set in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and the lyrics that celebrate living earnestly, are deeply moving.

When you want to charge toward your dreams and goals, this song is sure to give you strength.

The Story of the Wind and MeAdo

The Story of the Wind and Me [Ado]

This piece was written as the theme song for the film The Silent Service: The Great Arctic Sea Battle, released in September 2025.

It drew attention as the first song Hiroji Miyamoto has ever provided to a female artist, and for Mafumafu’s role as arranger.

The lyrics move from everyday scenes—like wind brushing your cheek and the sparkle of the city—to the preciousness of human connection, linking seamlessly with the film’s grand narrative.

It’s a beautiful rock ballad that stirs the heart with the contrast between Miyamoto’s characteristically lyrical melody and Ado’s richly expressive vocals.

GOOD DAYMrs. GREEN APPLE

GOOD DAY

Released in September 2025, this song is brimming with positivity, boldly declaring everything to be “wonderful” as it rides through life’s ups and downs.

Its lyrics—so fresh they prompted Omori to say his mindset as a songwriter had changed—resonate deeply.

As the finale of the band’s first-ever six-month consecutive release run, it was featured in a commercial for Kirin Beer’s “Kirin Good Ale.” A rock tune like a protective charm, it gives you the energy to face tomorrow.
