LynxClariS

Centered on a synth-pop sound, the transparent, intertwining vocals of the three members resonate pleasantly.
Its release coincided with the TV broadcast of the series’ theatrical version, making it a deeply moving song for longtime fans.
Highly recommended for those who want to experience a new starting point for ClariS.
Reaching for Your LightIwatatakanori

Takanori Iwata, who has been active as a performer in Sandaime J SOUL BROTHERS and EXILE and has won numerous awards as an actor, released “Reaching for Your Light” via streaming in October 2025.
The song was written as the opening theme for TV Tokyo’s Drama NEXT series “My Oshi Became My Boss: Full Throttle.” This work portrays a bittersweet longing for someone out of reach as a single ray of light piercing the darkness.
Its driving melody and straightforward, love-song lyrics resonate deeply.
It’s a number that will encourage anyone troubled by an unattainable love or holding on to earnest feelings.
Re:setSEKAI NO OWARI

This is a song I want you to listen to when you want to escape from reality.
It’s included on SEKAI NO OWARI’s 2019 album “Eye” and was used as the image song for the game Catherine: Full Body.
Its defining feature is an aggressive sound that weaves in rap and shouts.
It’s as if the piece turns inner turmoil and conflict directly into sound, giving voice to the cry of the heart on days when you don’t want to go to college.

Return ZeroAliey:S

An avant-garde electronic track sprinkled with programming terminology.
Released in October 2025 by Aliey:S, the piece features Rei Adachi’s impassive, inorganic vocals that leave a strong impression.
Through technical terms like integer maximum value, overflow, and semicolon, it portrays the anguish of an AI pushing up against the limits of its memory capacity.
The explosive chorus is another highlight—it feels like getting smacked in the head.
Let yourself be swept away by this wave of sound.
Living Dead PartyCOBA x5884x

This track captivates with a dark, alluring worldview that portrays a nocturnal festival of the dead.
Released by COBA x5884x in October 2024, the song unfolds scenes of a frenzied party alongside downer electronic sounds.
You’ll find yourself drawn into a world where reality and fiction blur together.
It’s a perfect pick for background music at a Halloween party.
Linda LindaZa Burū Hātsu

The Blue Hearts’ classic “Linda Linda.” It’s an indispensable song when talking about Japanese punk rock.
Its intense vibes often lead to misunderstandings, but in fact the vocal line is surprisingly gentle and the range isn’t very wide.
Since it sits in the low to mid range, anyone can sing it comfortably with the right key adjustment.
However, the low notes in the verse (A-melo) are fairly low, so don’t lower the key too much just because the chorus and the B-melo feel easy to sing.
This appears to be stylized ASCII art or decorative characters rather than standard Japanese text, so it doesn’t have a clear translation into English.DADA

This is a Vocaloid track with a sense of exhilarating speed, hiding a startling theme beneath the surface.
Created by dada and released in June 2025, it’s a catchy electronic tune whose lyrics portray irony and inner conflict about being “appointed” to a role, along with sharp questions aimed at society.
The powerful vocals of Kasane Teto SV further amplify the message.
It might resonate with the everyday doubts we suddenly feel, and those emotions that are hard to put into words.
