It’s the opening theme of Code Geass.

I love this anime so much that I ended up loving this song too.

The lyrics match the anime, so I’d like you to listen to this track—but more than that, I want you to watch the entire anime.

Then you’ll like this song even more.

It’s a hugely successful hit by SIAM SHADE.

Both visually and musically, it’s the best.

Rurouni Kenshin has many great songs, but this one is my favorite.

SIAM SHADE has recently made a comeback!
