boys and girlsKanzaki Iori

Kanzaki Iori is active as a Vocaloid producer, singer, music producer, and novelist.

This song, “Shounen Shoujo” (Boys and Girls), is his first release since going independent, and its lyrics feel like they capture the emotions of that new beginning.

When you start something new and take your first steps toward a dream, a wall inevitably appears in your path.

I can’t help but feel that this song is what you need to keep going without letting your spirit break.

All of Kanzaki Iori’s works give me the impression of a “cry from the heart,” and this track is no exception—one I recommend listening to before you bottle up your emotions.
