Spring personAYANE

In-Film Song from the Movie “The Song You Left Behind” Ayane / Person of Spring (Official Music Video) [Opens Friday, March 20]

This is a ballad that layers deep feelings for a cherished person you can no longer meet with images of spring’s arrival and a starry sky.

Its wistful yet warm melody, together with a core strength that seems to vow a fresh start beyond sorrow, resonates deeply in the heart.

Performed by Ayane, portrayed by Meru Nukumi, the song appears in the 2026 film “The Last Song You Left Behind,” where it was released in advance in February 2026 as an in-film track.

There’s even a story that Shunsuke Michieda, the lead actor, heard the vocals during filming and, beyond acting, was moved to tears naturally.

It’s a song that gives you the courage to step into a new season while holding on to unforgettable memories.

On a spring night when changes in your environment bring confusion or loneliness, why not listen quietly while gazing up at the sky?

A grand ballad whose heartrending yet powerful vocals seem to signal the end of the cherry-blossom season.

The solemn melody and lyrics that evoke a resolve to devote one’s entire love deeply permeate the listener’s heart.

Released as a single in March 2020, it served as the theme song for the final chapter of the Fate/stay night [Heaven’s Feel] film trilogy.

When the movie, after a delay, finally opened in August 2020, many fans were moved to tears as the song played alongside the story’s conclusion.

On a quiet night, why not immerse yourself in it alone while thinking of someone dear to you?

Kinoko Teikoku – Before the Cherry Blossoms Bloom

This work, which marked Kinoko Teikoku’s major-label debut, is a song based on vocalist Chiaki Sato’s real experiences when she moved to Tokyo from Iwate in the spring of 2005.

The lyrics, imbued with an earnest longing for the future—like a bud just before it blooms—deeply resonate with listeners.

Released as a single in April 2015, it was later included on the album “Neko to Allergy.” It is also positioned as a story from ten years earlier that connects to their indie-era classic “Tokyo.” The song stands by those striving in a new city or separated from dear friends, offering the courage to move forward with the arrival of spring.

It carries a powerful resolve to charge toward one’s dreams and a fiery message that evokes the arrival of spring.

Even while burdened with anxiety and doubt, the lyrics—urging you to trust your friends and yourself and move forward—truly resonate.

Many will relate to its stance of facing harsh realities, not just sugarcoating things.

Released in February 2010 as their 10th single, it was chosen as the theme song for the film “Negotiator THE MOVIE: A Battle of Wits at 10,000 Meters.” This track can be called the definitive springtime cheer song, blending Shonan no Kaze’s signature reggae groove with powerful vocals.

When you need a bit of courage to start a new chapter in life or want to fire yourself up, be sure to give it a listen.

A heartwarming number that overlays the bittersweetness of parting and the resolve to set out on a new journey with the blooming of cherry blossoms.

Released in February 2018, just before Kana Adachi’s high school graduation, it was her third single and features down-to-earth words that reflect her own feelings.

The lyrics are memorable for linking the sadness of an approaching farewell with hope for the future to cherry blossoms before they reach full bloom.

It was also used as the CM song for the cram school “Kobetsu Shidō Gakuin Free Step” and as a cheer song for the 34th Konami Open Swimming Tournament.

This work affirms an imperfect self and gives you the courage to take a step toward your dreams.

It’s a song we want everyone challenging a new environment—be it further education or employment—to hear.
