Aizu – Aiko (senpai to kanojo ost)

This is a song by aiko included on the single “Plamai” released in 2015.

It was used as the theme song for the film “My Senpai and Me.” It portrays the feelings of a woman who is in love and knows the feelings are mutual, yet remains somehow unstable.

Looking at the lyrics, it seems the two are not in a boyfriend–girlfriend relationship.

It might be a relationship they can’t tell anyone about.

Her single-minded love, the desire to stay by his side no matter what kind of relationship it is… is deeply heartrending.
