This is a song by WANIMA that has been rapidly rising in popularity as its TV drama theme songs and commercial tunes have been getting a lot of attention.

LeoYuuri
A moving song told from a dog’s point of view that will bring tears to your eyes with its love for its owner! Tons of pet videos on social media used “Leo,” didn’t they? The music video, which depicts the growth of a child and their dog, has also become a tearjerker topic.
If you’ve lost a pet you had from a young age, or if you currently have a pet, you’ll likely find yourself choked up imagining a future farewell.
Dogs and cats age several times faster than humans.
If this song makes you think of your pet, even if you’re busy with studies or club activities, make time now and then to play with them.

It’s the kind of masterpiece that hooks you after just one listen, so if you like Vocaloid, definitely give it a try!

It’s one of the signature songs by the Japanese rock band [Alexandros], also known as “Doros.” The opening guitar melody and the chorus are very famous—so much so that practically every middle and high school student knows it.
I often hear people say the band’s overall look is also very appealing.

The driving melody is so quintessentially BUMP.
