Amid the rush of work and studies on weekdays, this is a cheer song about heading out on the weekend to see the person who makes you shine—an emotion anyone can relate to.
Its refreshing sound expresses the determination to keep going, even in tough times or when you’re close to giving up, because you want to meet the hero who lifts you up.
Released in February 2017 on the album “SHISHAMO 4,” the track was also featured the same year as the CM song for NTT Docomo’s “Docomo Student Discount,” which helped boost the band’s popularity.
It was additionally adopted as a support song for Kawasaki Frontale, with the music video filmed at their home stadium, Todoroki Athletics Stadium.
It’s a perfect song for anyone who wants to belt it out while thinking of that special presence in their heart.

This song carries a powerful message of moving forward while staying close to everyday anxieties and doubts.
Set to WANIMA’s signature energetic punk rock sound, it conveys the importance of taking on challenges without striving for perfection.
The track is included on the album “Everybody!!” and was released in January 2018.
It was performed with 1,000 18-year-olds on a special NHK General program, and was also used as the theme song for Lotte Ice’s “Sou” commercial.
It’s a heartfelt anthem for those who feel uncertain about the future or are about to take a new step forward.

Set to a chill, poppy melody, this track sings in English about the sweet-and-sour feeling of falling in love at first sight.
Ayumu Imazu’s laid-back vocals and the lyrics’ honest expression of affection are particularly captivating.
The understated melody line beautifully captures the confusion and unease that come with falling in love.
Released in January 2024, the song became a hot topic across Asia after many artists—including Korea’s SEVENTEEN—posted dance videos on social media.
It’s the perfect song for relaxed moments, like a morning drive, a café break, or a leisurely weekend stroll.

JO1’s song is full of charm that makes listeners’ hearts dance! I’ve heard the lyrics carry a message like, “Forget the boring everyday routine—let’s have fun together!” Released on December 9, 2024, the track was also used as the TV commercial song for the JRA (Japan Racing Association) “Arima Kinen Promotion.” It features a pop, energetic sound and is said to really shine in live performances.
It’s the kind of song that gives strength to people working hard every day.
I recommend listening to it when you’re hanging out with friends or when you’re feeling down!

TRUE’s new song, the opening theme for the anime Sound! Euphonium 3.
Released in April 2024, this powerful track is infused with a spirit of challenge and growth.
Its lyrics, which sing about turning everyday joys and regrets into sound and moving forward, resonate deeply with listeners.
The sound blends synth-pop and pop, skillfully combining modern elements with influences from 1980s–1990s anime music.
This work is perfect for anyone who values their own voice and strives for self-realization.
