Among the tracks on the concept album “Adapt,” this is a hidden gem that conveys the warmth of everyday life.
Featured on the album released in March 2022, it may not have had any major tie-ins, but the groove born from the band’s sessions feels incredibly comfortable.
As vocalist Ichiro Yamaguchi mentioned on the radio, calling it “the song of the Noborito house,” it carries an intimate atmosphere—less like a vast stadium and more like relaxing at home.
It paints everyday scenes, like spending time with a cocktail in hand, and its lyrics, which quietly recount loneliness and solitude, sink deep into the heart.
Flashy dance numbers have their charm, but this is a perfect song to listen to alone on a quiet night with a drink.
Immerse yourself in the profound world of Sakanaction.

Are you familiar with a track whose Afrobeat rhythms and the wistful mood of Showa-era kayōkyoku are brilliantly fused, creating a strange, addictive quality that sticks in your head after just one listen? It’s a song Sakanaction wrote as the theme for the film “Lupin’s Daughter: The Movie,” released as a digital single in January 2022.
Following their use of “Moss” as the theme for the TV drama version, this piece was also included on the concept album “Adapt,” and it feels like a fresh challenge from the band as they marked their 15th anniversary.
The repeated phrases are pleasantly hypnotic, generating a unique sense of unity at live shows.
It’s the perfect number for when you want to escape the everyday and immerse yourself in a curious, otherworldly vibe—or when you’re simply in the mood to dance.

This is the closing track of the album “Siip,” released in October 2021 by the enigmatic singer-songwriter/creator Siip.
Its dramatic structure, unfolding from a quiet introduction into a gradually grander sonic landscape, creates an immersive feeling as if you’re watching a film.
Many listeners will likely find themselves startled by the lyrical worldview, which seems to hint at predetermined fate and parallel timelines.
It also attracted attention when it was showcased as part of the production for Mrs.
GREEN APPLE’s 2023 arena tour.
The story, drawn from an all-seeing, transcendent perspective, is perfect for nights when you want to forget the everyday and look deeply inward.
With a beauty that carries a certain cool detachment, this track quietly seeps into the depths of the heart.

The driving band sound and thought-provoking melody line really leave an impression.
Suis’s transparent vocals and the meticulous ensemble create a perfect balance that keeps it from feeling too heavy.
It’s a pivotal track at the core of the story in the concept album “Tōsaku,” released in July 2020, and it was pre-released in June 2020.
The music video, unveiled in an unusually wide horizontal format, also attracted attention.
It’s a moving song I’d recommend for nights when you want to quietly face your inner self or sink into bittersweet emotions.
Setting SunYorushika
A refreshing rock number by Yorushika, marked by a sound where the signs of summer and the poignancy of dusk intersect.
The literary lyrics, which capture a scene of a madder-red sky, and the catchy guitar riff that lingers in your ears really set your heart ablaze.
Released in May 2023, this piece was written as the opening theme for the TV anime “The Dangers in My Heart,” vividly coloring the story of its first season.
n-buna’s delicate words are expressed by suis with a voice that is both powerful and fleeting, conjuring vivid scenes each time you listen.
Its bright yet slightly shadowed melody is perfect for those twilight hours when you want to sink into a sentimental mood.
It’s also a recommended pop tune for anyone who wants to look back on summer memories while surrendering to a melody that resonates with the heart.
Girl RayMikito P
Shoujo Rei has the image of being sung in a steady, band-style sound.
The overall vocal range of the song is A3–F5, and the high notes are quite high, but if you can handle your falsetto well, you should be able to sing it in the original key.
For the opening melody, it might be better to “speak” rather than “sing,” with almost zero emotion.
In the chorus, the drum rhythm gets tricky, so be careful not to let the melody line waver.
It’s a good idea to lightly mark the beat with your hand so the tempo doesn’t rush.
Also, the highest note, F5, is on the “i” vowel, which makes falsetto easier to produce.
Use your breath well and let your head voice ring lightly.

The new song by Tokoyami Towa, a VTuber from hololive, was produced as the opening theme for the TV anime “The Jack-of-All-Trades Who Was Kicked Out of the Hero’s Party,” airing in January 2026.
Blending a driving rock sound crafted by YOURNESS’s Shohei Koga with her powerful yet delicate vocals, it conveys a determination to push forward even in the face of adversity.
The single CD, set for release in March 2026, offers plenty to enjoy, including audio from her 2nd live concert held at Ariake Arena.
While aligning with the anime’s world, the message also connects with the trajectory of her own career, gently encouraging those ready to take on new challenges.
It’s an emotional rock tune where urgency and hope coexist.
