LiSA’s “Homura” gives us the strength to step into the future, drawing on everything we’ve worked through with our teammates.

Released in 2020, the song was chosen as the theme for the film Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train, which became a social phenomenon.

The teammates who have fought alongside us are also the rivals we want to surpass.

The days spent with those friends and rivals become the power to keep walking forward into the future.

After graduating from the team and going our separate ways from our rivals, this song brings back the memories of those battles together and inspires the feeling of “Let’s do our best again.”

Namie Amuro’s “Hero” is a song that conveys the message, “I’ll always be on your side, even after you leave the team.” Released in 2016, it was chosen as NHK’s broadcast theme song for the Rio de Janeiro Olympic and Paralympic Games that year.

We’ve cheered you on countless times in practices and matches, and that feeling won’t change even after you graduate from the team! With that sentiment in mind, it’s a great song to sing to the children who are moving on.

Even those who feel anxious about the future will find the strength to keep going when they receive that encouragement.
