Producer TeddyLoid, known for electronic music and his work on anime and game soundtracks, has created this ambitious new track as the opening theme for the TV anime “Tōjima Tanzaburō Wants to Be Kamen Rider,” airing from October 2025.

Singer-songwriter eill, known for her translucent vocals and versatile musicality, continues to draw attention.

Chosen as the theme song for Amazon Prime Video’s reality dating show “Love Transit Season 3,” this track was released for streaming in October 2025.

Set to a classic R&B groove, it delicately portrays the emotions of a woman striving to move forward while holding onto feelings for someone she’s parted ways with.

It’s moving in its depiction of the aching loneliness of having no one left to keep her warm, alongside the complex desire to cherish that love in her heart forever.

Give it a listen when you feel like looking back on a past romance.

This song, one of the tracks on a double A-side single, was chosen as the theme for the TV Asahi drama “Papa to Oyaji no Uchi Gohan.” It’s a piece that closely aligns with the drama’s worldview, in which member So Matsushima stars and Shuto Inomata appears.

It gently sings about everyday happiness, layering the idea of time spent with someone and mutual support onto the word “recipe.” The music video is set in a kindergarten, capturing the members as teachers interacting with the children, and the warm scenes are truly wonderful.

Please take in their positive message.
