Under the starry sky, the moon, and the fireworksMizuki Nana
Nana Mizuki is known for her work as both a voice actress and a singer.
Her song “Under the Starry Sky, the Moon, and Fireworks” is a hidden summer gem that begins with a beautiful piano intro.
Her richly vibrato-laden vocals paint a lovely scene of fireworks, and it truly tugs at the heart.
While it doesn’t have the intense tone of one of her signature tracks, “ETERNAL BLAZE,” it’s a supreme number where you can savor the gentleness of her voice, much like “innocent starter.” It’s also highly recommended for those who haven’t listened much to singers from the voice-acting world!

From the title alone, you can already feel the bittersweetness of a summer romance in singer-songwriter Mio Isayama’s “Koi Hanabi.” With words like cotton candy, goldfish, and yukata woven throughout the lyrics, it’s clear that the song tells the story of two people at a summer festival.
The unique atmosphere of summer fireworks—so dazzling and eye-catching, yet leaving you with a sudden, lonely ache when they’re over—comes through not only in the lyrics but abundantly in the melody as well.
It’s a track that makes you inevitably recall that summer love from days past.

Nogodzen is a two-person folk band from Hokkaido.

Hironari Hamano’s gentle keyboard further enhances that charm.
