It’s the opening theme of the anime Ghost Stories.

The series originally started in the fall and aired through the following spring, but since it’s a horror-themed show, it’s often re-broadcast in the summer.

I imagine there are still fans who make a point of watching it every summer.

Luck Life / Degrees Celsius [Music Video] (TV Anime 'Tsurune: The Linking Shot' Opening Theme)

On a hot summer day, the song I’d love for you to listen to is “℃.” This track was specially written by Luck Life as the opening theme for the anime Tsurune: The Linking Shot.

As you know, “℃” in the title is the unit used to express temperature.

Throughout the song, it depicts the heat of youthful days and feelings growing more intense.

The powerful sound and passionate vocals combine to energize you as you listen—and they just might blow away the summer heat.

Summer of GoodbyeTeshima Aoi

Eng sub From Up on Poppy Hill “Summer of Goodbye” with lyrics, covered by Miho Kuroda

The theme song from Studio Ghibli’s 2011 coming-of-age film From Up on Poppy Hill.

The movie portrays high school students living earnestly during Japan’s period of rapid economic growth in the Showa era.

Set to a melody that moves between a touch of sadness and a hint of joy, it expresses a young woman’s feelings for the man she likes.

It doesn’t evoke a vividly fresh summer, but rather a summer scene with a certain shadow cast over it.

It’s a slightly bittersweet song that conveys both parting and the hope that follows.
