I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

Even though we were together so muchSee-Saw

Even though we were together so much

We were together so much like that, See-Saw

I think many people remember it as the ending theme of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED.

See-Saw had already released many songs tied in with games and the like, but this track served as the catalyst that brought them wider recognition.

It’s a relaxed yet emotionally intense piece, perfectly suited as a Gundam ending theme.
