Ephemeral Fireworkssupercell

supercell – Ephemeral Fireworks

It’s a bittersweet breakup song that brings back memories of a summer festival you once went to with a lover.

Created by the creator unit supercell, whose popularity took off from their activity on Niconico Douga, it was released as their third single in 2010.

It served as an ending theme for the anime Naruto Shippuden.

The gentle piano tones feel as if they slowly seep into the depths of your heart.

The lyrics—expressing a yearning to return to those happy days and a regret of ever falling in love—really hit home.

Lost my musicsuzumiya haruhi (hirano aya)

Lost my music

A presence that meant more than anything has vanished.

This breakup song channels that sense of loss into a powerful sound, leaving you feeling positive by the time it ends.

It was used as an insert song in the anime The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, and is sung by Aya Hirano, who played the lead role.

Perhaps because of its high-energy style, you can really feel the desire to deliver these feelings to you.

It’s a great pick not only as an anime song, but also for fans of classic rock.
