Best Friend’s Girl, the first release after J SOUL BROTHERS became Sandaime J Soul Brothers, was featured in a commercial for Meiji’s Meltykiss.
Released in 2010, the song portrays a bittersweet love for a female friend.
He truly likes her romantically, but he can’t confess his feelings because he doesn’t want to ruin their close friendship.
He wants to tell her, yet he can’t—and that frustrating, aching feeling tightens your chest.

Circle of Thanksayaka
“Arigatou no Wa” was released as a digital single in February 2014.
When I listen to this song, it conveys feelings of gratitude toward family and loved ones, and I can’t help but shed a few tears.
A shareable KitKat and “Arigatou no Wa” are a perfect match! It’s an ideal small gift when you want to say thank you to your dad or mom, your friends, or someone special.
It’s a warm song that feels very Ayaka, so it’s also recommended as BGM for graduation ceremonies or weddings.

Chosen for KitKat’s exam-support campaign, “Sakura Saku” was released in February 2010 as Kii Kitano’s debut single.
It’s a song that gives you a gentle push as you face graduation and new paths beyond entrance exams.
The lyrics, which encourage staying positive and expressing gratitude even when you end up walking different paths, really tug at the heartstrings.
It’s a recommended track to gift with a KitKat not only during exam season, but also to friends who’ll be far away or seniors who are graduating.

This song, included on B’z’s 21st album NEW LOVE released in 2019, was written specifically for Ezaki Glico’s Pocky commercial.
With few instruments, its very simple sound leaves a strong impression.

It’s a heartwarming track where a sound that evokes that happiness and vocals that convey hope for the future come together.
