Poem of the Wandering Starssuis from Yorushika
The song by Yorushika’s suis beautifully portrays delicate emotions.
On a train bound for the moon, the protagonist faces themselves and tries to take a new step forward.
Released digitally on February 23, 2024 as the theme song for the anime “Do We Enter the Future Now?”, the track expresses the struggles and resolve of Gen Z, carrying a message meant to give courage to listeners.
It’s a perfect song for university students or job-hunters who feel uncertain about the future.

You’ll still find it feels fresh even today! The endlessly repeat-worthy “Hakkōtai” (Luminous Body) is a track by Yura Yura Teikoku, the rock band led by Shintaro Sakamoto.
It was released in 1998 as their debut single.
It’s an energetic rock sound, yet—whether it’s the lyrics or the vocals—it somehow comes across with a strangely twisted sonic character… and that contrast really gets you.
It’s a classic of ’90s rock that I’d love for younger generations to check out!

Drawing on bandleader Dave Hirao’s experiences in the United States, this work had a major impact on the Japanese music scene.
Highly recommended not only for blues fans but also for anyone interested in the dawn of Japanese rock.

The song gives the impression of gently wrapping even the cold winter air, capturing listeners’ hearts.
The lyrics express the joy of spending Christmas with a loved one and the hope for a new beginning, and the heartwarming melody line is especially memorable.
