Formed in 2015 as Hiragana Keyaki and debuting in 2019 as Hinatazaka46, their second single is a refreshing love song.

It sings about the feelings of a girl who realizes she’s in love.

By leaving out “Fa,” it creates a feeling of leaping forward with a jump.

This conjures the image of a girl jumping against a blue sky.

It’s a love song that perfectly suits high school students.
