This song, released in December 2002 by Mr.Children—the indispensable four-piece rock band in Japanese music history—is a moving work created right after Kazutoshi Sakurai’s return from a cerebellar infarction.

The lyrics, infused with the desire to be someone’s hero, are full of gentle resolve: not to be a dazzling presence, but to stand by someone important in everyday life.

Chosen as the theme song for the NTT DoCoMo Group’s 10th-anniversary commercial, it became a long-running hit, ranking 9th on the 2003 annual singles chart.

This is a commercial from 2004 that makes viewers reflect on global social issues.

In a certain overseas city, Cup Noodles are lined up in a row to mark the boundary with a neighboring area, and people live their lives without crossing that line.

The background music for the commercial features Mr.Children’s “Tagatame.” With lyrics that prompt us to think about world peace, the song pairs perfectly with the commercial’s narrative.
