Primarily active in Tokyo, I have experience as a backup dancer for artists, a music video dancer, and a commercial dancer. I continue to work as a dancer while also engaging in article production. After discovering Michael Jackson in junior high school, I began dancing in my second year of high school. Since starting dance, in addition to the J-Pop and Japanese rock I had been listening to, I began exploring Western R&B, rap, alternative music, and other tracks commonly used for dance. In elementary school, I spent three years in a choir, and because I love singing, I often go to karaoke for fun. These days, I enjoy a wide range of music, from Japanese rock and rap to K-pop.

sumika / End Roll [Music Video]

With a title like “End Credits” and an opening line that makes your heart skip a beat, you can’t help but assume it’s a sad love song.

The lyrics are deep, even a bit misleading at times, pulling you in more and more—only to leave you thinking, in the best way, “I’ve been tricked!” by the end.

It’s a number where the words “I love you” pierce straight through, yet hints of loneliness and sorrow peek out here and there.

But if you savor that sadness all the way to the end, it flips to happiness, making the “I love you” hit even harder—a song that truly sticks with you.

Though it uses very few words and is a short song, its simple expressions of love make you feel happy.

The lyrics are minimal, but precisely because of Motohiro Hata’s gentle voice, something deep comes through that simplicity.

Without saying anything complicated, just saying “I love you” should be enough to convey your feelings.
