Season of BeginningsMakihara Noriyuki × Hanaregumi16rank/position

A duet by Noriyuki Makihara and Hanaregumi that beautifully captures the conflicting emotions of spring—anticipation and unease, fluttering excitement and impermanence.

Released digitally on April 30, 2025, it received an exclusive early airplay on FM COCOLO starting April 1 of the same year.

With their rich vocals blending seamlessly, the song is a gem that seems to sonically paint the very scenes of spring.

Makihara’s melody and lyrics, paired with Hirokazu Ogura’s gently expressive guitar arrangement, are exquisite.

It’s a track you’ll want to listen to when early spring leaves you unsettled, or when nostalgia and hope set your heart trembling.
