This is a single released in June 2020 as the theme song for the drama “Miman Keisatsu: Midnight Runner,” starring Kento Nakajima and Sho Hirano.

The lyrics, which depict the struggles and friendships of young people facing challenges—echoing the story set at a police academy—really hit home.

The music video drew attention for featuring what’s said to be the most difficult choreography in the group’s history, but the melody itself sits in a relatively low range, so many male singers may find it easy to sing.

It was a hit that sold over 500,000 copies in its first week, so it’s extremely well-known.

With its cool, exhilarating sound, it’s perfect for energizing a crowd or for moments when you want to keep things sharp and stylish.
