[Official] Uru “remember” × “Natsume’s Book of Friends the Movie: Tied to the Temporal World” Collaboration MV YouTube ver.

Singer-songwriter Uru captivates many listeners with her enveloping voice and mystical presence.

Released in September 2018 as the title track of her sixth single, this piece was written as the theme song for the animated film Natsume’s Book of Friends the Movie: Tied to the Temporal World.

The lyrics, depicting encounters and farewells and the kindness that lives on in our memories, gently warm the listener’s heart while staying close to the film’s worldview.

Although a different song was initially being produced, the melody—born from a deeper rereading of the story—feels perfect for moments when you want to reflect on cherished memories.

It’s a pristine, heart-cleansing ballad whose gentle ensemble of piano and strings strikes a deep chord.

[Official] Uru “Furiko” — Theme song for the film “The Voice of Sin”

This is a single released in October 2020 as the theme song for the film “The Voice of Sin,” which portrays a profound human drama.

Uru herself wrote the lyrics and composed the music, reportedly crafting it while rewatching the film many times, and the emotions wavering between despair and hope are expressed with delicate nuance.

The performance released in “THE FIRST TAKE” in February 2023 also drew attention, and the song continues to be loved over time.

Though it deals with heavy themes, the lyrical worldview suggests a faint light toward the future, gently accompanying those who feel worn out by daily life.

Why not listen to it when you’re in deep sorrow or on a night when you want someone to quietly encourage you?

Singer-songwriter Uru, whose enveloping voice captivates countless listeners.

Centered on the theme of two opposing emotions coexisting at once, this song’s exhilarating, fast-paced melody strikes the heart.

The words, inspired by the protagonist Maomao, brim with a powerful resolve to move forward even while carrying inner turmoil.

Chosen as the opening theme for the second cour of the TV anime The Apothecary Diaries, it was released as a single in February 2024 and is also included on the album tone, released in February 2026.

It’s an uplifting number that gently gives you a push—perfect for moments when you want to think of someone you admire in everyday life, or when stepping into a new environment where anxiety and anticipation mix.

[Official] Uru “KAMI HITOE (A Fine Line)” TV Anime “Hell’s Paradise” Ending Theme

The 13th single “Kami Hitoe,” released as a double A-side with “Kokoroe,” was used as the ending theme for the TV anime Hell’s Paradise.

Its message—encouraging us to keep weaving love even as we struggle and grope our way forward—warms the heart.

While it’s challenging due to its frequent rises and falls in the melody and many interval leaps, the relaxed tempo makes it relatively easy to sing at karaoke if you take care to confirm the pitches as you go.

It’s a beautiful ballad whose transparent ensemble lifts your spirits as you sing.

You in the Stars (MUSIC VIDEO)

A beautifully clear melody that makes you want to gaze up at the night sky—this ballad resonates deep in the heart.

Garnering attention through cover videos on YouTube and beloved for her mysterious voice, Uru marked her memorable debut single with “Hoshi no Naka no Kimi.” Released in June 2016, the song was written as the theme for the film “Natsumi no Hotaru,” starring Kasumi Arimura.

It was Uru’s first original song, a precious track that can be said to mark the beginning of her story.

The grand sound woven by piano and strings is layered with delicate vocals so nuanced you can feel her breath, gently stirring the listener’s emotions.

It’s perfect for a quiet night when you want to immerse yourself in music alone, or for those seeking a cleansing, heart-soothing experience.

[Official] Uru “I'm Going to See You Now”

The song “Ima Ai ni Iku” included on the 2nd album Orion Blue is a track Uru reportedly completed before her major-label debut.

Its lyrics, which blend poignancy with warmth, really resonate.

There’s a brief falsetto leap in the melody that’s tricky and requires precise pitch, but overall the melody is simple, making it approachable even for those who aren’t very confident singers.

It’s a sentimental ballad that’s sure to draw attention at karaoke.

With her mysterious singing voice that gently nestles close to the listener’s heart, Uru released this work as her third single in February 2017, and it was chosen as the ending theme for the TV anime Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans.

It’s a ballad infused with a quiet resolve to move forward despite carrying loss and pain.

The song is also included on her first album, Monochrome, and its worldview—linked to the anime’s story—brought many listeners to tears.

If you listen on nights when your heart is weary or when you want to quietly face yourself, it may soothe the fatigue of daily life.

Immerse yourself in her crystal-clear voice and gather strength for tomorrow.

Never endsUru19rank/position

[Official] Uru “Never ends” Theme song for the TBS Friday drama “DOPE: Narcotics Control Division Special Investigations Unit”

Uru has an image of using a lot of breath in her singing.

“Never ends” is a relaxed song where her falsetto resonates beautifully.

The song has a generally wistful feel, so there’s no need to belt.

Since you can sing it without forcing and with a relaxed approach, I think it’s easy for women to sing! However, the falsetto in the chorus is delivered a bit strongly, so I’m worried that a normal falsetto might become thin and fade out.

Try to keep in mind: “It’s falsetto, but sing it with a bit of strength.” Your core is important, so brace yourself and send the voice straight out from your head!

[Official] Uru “Tegami” Theme Song for the Film ‘Yukikaze’

Uru is a female singer-songwriter known for her ballads.

Many women have probably been moved by her emotional lyrics and vocals.

Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is Tegami (Letter).

The melody feels like a classic J-pop ballad, featuring many familiar phrases.

However, the vocal range spans from mid1 F to hi D#, which is quite low at the bottom and fairly high at the top.

The pitch movement is also very dramatic, making it difficult to sing well on the first try.

Fortunately, it’s a slow-tempo piece, so once you get the hang of it, you should be able to improve quickly.
