Urusei Yatsura Season 2 Ending Full – Raiou by MAISONdes feat. 9Lana, SAKURAmoti

Let me introduce a memorable track marked by gentle vocals and a wistful melody that evokes the arrival of spring.

In this work from MAISONdes, the fleeting time spent with a loved one is delicately portrayed through scenes of a thunder-rumbling city and fluttering cherry blossoms.

Its calm melody and 9Lana’s translucent voice wrap tenderly around the feelings for someone special, conveying a warm embrace.

Chosen as the ending theme for the third cour of the Fuji TV anime “Urusei Yatsura” starting in January 2024, the song was written and composed by SAKURAmoti.

It’s a recommended piece for those beginning a new life in spring or wishing to look back on memories with someone dear.

DEEP, who sing “Sakura of Hope,” is a group that includes members such as EXILE’s vocalist ATSUSHI.

The secret to their popularity among young people likely lies not only in their excellent singing and cool style, but also in their wonderful lyrics.

Piko – Sakura Sound Live

Piko’s third single “Sakurane” was released in 2011.

It was tied up as the ending theme for the TV anime “Gintama’ (Yorinuki Gintama-san)” and the March 2011 ending theme for TV Tokyo’s program “V no Ryugi.” Although the voice may sound feminine, Piko is actually male; he is known for his wide vocal range and his ability to switch between both male- and female-sounding singing voices.

It’s a moving ballad perfect for the season when cherry blossoms dance.

Released in April 2025, this song is the theme for the season event “Sakura-Mau Start Line” in the game Gakuen Idolmaster.

The gentle harmonies of the trio—Liliya Katsuragi, Sayaka Shiun, and Saki Hanami—leave a lasting impression.

It’s as if the tender melody rides the spring breeze and soars into the sky.

The lyrics, which portray meetings, farewells, and irreplaceable friendship, will especially resonate with those graduating from school.

Be sure to give it a listen during cherry blossom season.
