Its exhilarating sound seems to voice dissent against the folly and absurdity of war.
The rapid shifts between stillness and intensity evoke both the anxiety of a peaceful everyday life being shattered and a heartfelt cry to hold on to ideals nonetheless.

Nobody is RightNakajima Miyuki
Everyone believes in their own justice, and at times that becomes the spark of conflict.
This work movingly captures that human nature, along with a prayer-like wish for coexistence that persists nonetheless.
Rather than condemning one side of a confrontation, the lyrics imagine the uncompromising feelings and backgrounds of each, making them a message for peace itself.
The song was included on the acclaimed 2007 October release “I Love You, Kotaetekure,” and in 2015 it was also used in a fashion brand’s commercial.
When you’re suffering from your own sense of rightness or pained by rifts with others, listening to it will let the warmth of its gaze bring you solace.

A cool, defiant track that rides on sharp rap and lays bare genuine, unfiltered feelings.
This is a solo song by Juri Tanaka of SixTONES, and it carries a powerful force that seems to pierce the listener’s heart.
It’s an ambitious piece he was deeply involved in crafting—so much so that he calls it “a new drawer of myself”—and that meticulous dedication comes through in every detail of the sound.
When you want to move forward with confidence or stay true to your convictions, this song will give you a strong push from behind.

An uplifting anthem that defined the 2000s, stirring the heart with its portrait of someone single-mindedly pursuing their dream despite being clumsy.

Cursed Pinksaitou owari
It’s a bittersweet Vocaloid song that portrays the struggle with self-esteem.
Created by Owari Saito, it was released in February 2025.
Beneath its pop sound, it weaves in a distinctive dark edge and a fantastical worldview.
