About meMrs. GREEN APPLE

A song produced as the official cheer anthem for the 97th All Japan High School Soccer Tournament.
Rather than irresponsibly telling those who are already doing their best to “keep going,” it carries the message that every single day is a miracle, including the experiences of broken dreams and setbacks.
It thoughtfully portrays the feelings of recognizing differences between oneself and others, and the resolve to move forward despite fear and uncertainty.
After listening, you’re left with a fresh, positive outlook—a celebration of life.
In 2022, an orchestral arrangement was featured in a Calorie Mate commercial by Otsuka Pharmaceutical, drawing renewed attention as a song that encourages exam-takers.
It’s a track we especially recommend to those at the milestone of graduation or standing on the brink of a new challenge.

Released in September 2009, it was created as the set piece for the junior high school division of NHK’s National School Music Competition.
It debuted at No.

The lyrics, which view parting in a positive light and sing of hope for the future, resonate deeply.
Featuring an arrangement centered on piano and strings, the song won an Excellence Award at the 52nd Japan Record Awards in 2010.
As one of Ikimono-gakari’s signature songs, it has become a staple performed at many school events and graduation ceremonies.
It’s a song that supports those about to graduate and those taking a new step forward.

A work by Yuuri that gently depicts precious memories and gratitude nestled in everyday life.
