Best FrendKiroro
It’s a song I want to sing with great care, with someone special in mind.
Sung by two artists from Okinawa, this song has been passed down from adults to children.
Their voices have a delicate yet dynamic power that reaches everyone’s heart and gently unravels even the most troubled ones.
flameLiSA
Demon Slayer saw a surge so great after its 2019 anime broadcast that it could be called a social phenomenon.
Following the anime’s opening theme, LiSA also handled the theme song for the film Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train.
As a fan of the original manga, she wrote the lyrics herself, and they closely mirror the film’s story, moving many Demon Slayer fans to tears.
It’s a song that draws you into the protagonists’ tale—one of facing a formidable enemy with courage while carrying countless partings and sorrows.
Shape of LoveMISIA feat.HIDE(GReeeeN)
It’s a love song whose grand vocals by MISIA strike the heart.
It was chosen as the theme song for the drama “Gibo to Musume no Blues,” starring Haruka Ayase.
MISIA’s songs are challenging, but when you hear her soaring voice, you can’t help wanting to sing along too.
It’s a moving track, thanks to MISIA’s vocals and the lyrics overflowing with love.
EndlessTOMOO
A piano ballad by TOMOO that sincerely portrays a straightforward love for someone dear.
A pure wish for an enduring, certain bond that goes beyond physical fulfillment resonates with delicate melodies.
Expressing the depth of love and its complex emotions, this piece was chosen as the ending theme for the 2024 October drama “Zen Ryōiki Ijō Kaiketsu-shitsu” (All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office).
Its simple yet expansive piano sound and TOMOO’s smoky vocals leave a strong impression.
It’s a song to listen to when you’re struggling with a relationship with someone important, or when you want to sort out your feelings for them.
The earnest sentiment and gentle, enveloping voice will surely stay close to your heart.
Because you are hereUru
This is the theme song for the 2020 drama “Ship of Theseus,” which portrays the bonds of family.
The drama itself was wonderfully moving—hard to watch without tears—but surely the song “Anata ga Iru Koto de” played a major role in that.
Filled with heartfelt emotions for someone precious, this song prompts you to think of those close to you—family, a partner—and realize anew how important their presence is.
While it’s difficult to capture Uru’s vocal style—powerful yet restrained, with a delicate, slender quality—if you can deliver it well at karaoke, it’s a ballad that will earn you instant respect.
PrologueUru
This song became a major topic as the theme song for the drama “Chugakusei Nikki” (Diary of a Middle School Teacher).
The singer-songwriter Uru, who performs it, was already well-known for posting cover videos on YouTube even before releasing this track.
It’s a ballad brimming with the charm of her husky voice.
Reading the lyrics brings back the drama’s storyline and makes your chest tighten with emotion.
