The 19th single by the four-piece rock band [Alexandros] was chosen as the theme song for the animated film Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway.
It’s the first release since drummer Ibu Riyad officially joined, and the arrangement—moving from a lyrical opening into a driving rock sound—feels exhilarating.
The message that the world opens up once you make up your mind could serve as a guide for those who have lost sight of their dreams or goals.
With powerful high-tone vocals that give you a push and lift a low mood, it’s an uplifting tune.
RE:I AMAimer
A grand rock ballad chosen as the ending theme for episode 6 of the OVA Mobile Suit Gundam UC.
Its striking lyrics portray the feelings of people striving to move forward despite deep sorrow and loss caused by war, beginning with a heartfelt call to a loved one who has been lost and expressing a strong will to find hope.
Released in March 2013, it was also a milestone for Aimer, becoming her first single to enter the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart top 10.
This is a highly recommended song for those facing life’s hardships, conveying that the small hopes found in everyday life can serve as signposts to the future.

This is a captivating track whose clear, shimmering girls-band sound blends beautifully with an epic story set in space.
The lyrics, woven by vocals that are delicate yet powerful, carefully depict emotions and scenes found in everyday life, resonating deeply with listeners.

Mobile Suit Gundam series: A selection of theme and insert songs through the ages (11–20)
Red:birthmarkAina ji Endo
This is an emotionally charged song whose vocals by Aina the End resonate deeply.
Themes of lost dreams and love, as well as pain, are expressed through vivid imagery, stirring the listener’s heart.
Released in April 2023, it was chosen as the ending theme for Season 2 of the popular anime Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury.
TK from Ling tosite sigure contributed to the production, resulting in a passionately intense rock sound.
When you want to face the complex emotions within yourself, why not listen to this song? It will surely stay close to your heart.
From the depths of the heart to the water planetMoriguchi Hiroko
The latter opening theme of the TV anime Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam.
With Hiroko Moriguchi’s soft, flowing vocals, it became a song that markedly differs from the first opening theme.
It is also Hiroko Moriguchi’s debut single.
The composer is American singer-songwriter Neil Sedaka, and the lyricist is Masao Urino.
BelieverNishikawa Takanori
A rock tune where aggressive guitar riffs and a powerhouse rhythm section explode.
Produced by Tetsuya Komuro, it’s a blazing number that clashes head‑on with Takanori Nishikawa’s powerful vocals.
It’s included as the B-side to the single “FREEDOM,” released in January 2024, credited as “Takanori Nishikawa with t.komuro.” While the title track—theme song for the film “Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM”—has been a hot topic, the full-fledged band sound on this track, featuring star musicians like Marty Friedman, is truly awesome as well.
It’s a hard-hitting piece that Nishikawa himself said “blew me away the moment I heard the demo.” Highly recommended when you want a rush or need to get fired up in the morning!
PRIDEHIGH and MIGHTY COLOR
This is the major debut single released in January 2005 by a six-member rock band from Okinawa, chosen as the second opening theme for Mobile Suit Gundam SEED DESTINY.
Featuring powerful dual male-female vocals and heavy guitar work, it’s a grand rock number that sings of resolve and pride on the battlefield.
It debuted at No.
2 on the Oricon charts and became one of their signature songs, earning them the New Artist Award at the 47th Japan Record Awards.
Its exhilarating sound, perfectly matched to the anime’s world, resonates as an uplifting anthem for moments when you need courage to face adversity or the strength to stand by your convictions.
