Accompanist / Piano Instructoryuri
Accompanist pianist × piano instructor × web writer. I began piano lessons at age four and, inspired by my piano teacher, decided to pursue music. I went on to specialized music programs in high school and university, where I discovered the appeal of accompanying instrumentalists and singers. Currently, alongside teaching piano, I work mainly in my home region of Aichi as an accompanist for flute, voice, choir, and more. Through lessons, my students often introduce me to trending songs, and my hobby is trying anything on the piano—Japanese and Western pop, commercial jingles, and beyond. Since 2021, I’ve also been active as a web writer, covering music and a variety of other genres.
Music writer / guitarist / Certified web writing practitionerHoshino Takashi
Drawing on over 30 years of experience with guitars and bands since my high school days, I specialize in music-related articles and have handled many feature pieces to date. While my tastes lean toward genres like hard rock and heavy metal since I first picked up the guitar, I make a point of listening to a wide range of styles, both Japanese and Western, on a daily basis. I began working as a freelance writer in 2018. I hold a Web Writing Practical Certification, and in addition to writing, I’m also studying video editing. In my private life, I’m raising an elementary school child and stay active while supporting their extracurriculars, such as parkour and dance.

Kasabuta / Hidetaka Chi-wata

The first opening theme of the anime Konjiki no Gash Bell!!—the adaptation of Konjiki no Gash!!, which was serialized in Weekly Shonen Sunday—was this song, Kasabuta.

The story is packed with quintessential shonen elements like a boy’s growth, magic, and battles.

As the main theme, it’s a perfectly fitting, positive track that gives boys and girls alike motivation and courage.

[Limited Time] Fire Force Season 2 Non-Credit Opening Video | Aimer “SPARK-AGAIN”

SPARK-AGAINAimer

Released in September 2020, “SPARK-AGAIN” is Aimer’s 19th single and was chosen as the opening theme for the popular anime Fire Force Season 2.

It’s incredibly cool, with a driving sense of speed like a blast of hot wind and a rock sound that surges in the chorus.

If you’ve read the original or watched the anime, I’m sure many of you have thought, “I want to hear this during the battle scenes!” When I think of Aimer, I usually picture songs that quietly and deeply draw you in, but energetic, up-tempo tracks like this that hit you straight in the heart are great too.
