DancerFukkun:)Tatsuki Fukuda
Primarily active in Tokyo, I have experience as a backup dancer for artists, a music video dancer, and a commercial dancer. I continue to work as a dancer while also engaging in article production. After discovering Michael Jackson in junior high school, I began dancing in my second year of high school. Since starting dance, in addition to the J-Pop and Japanese rock I had been listening to, I began exploring Western R&B, rap, alternative music, and other tracks commonly used for dance. In elementary school, I spent three years in a choir, and because I love singing, I often go to karaoke for fun. These days, I enjoy a wide range of music, from Japanese rock and rap to K-pop.
A Vocaloid producer who is also a music writerAraki Jakkan
I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

You’ll find memorable songs you listened to as a child as well as popular new tracks, so be sure to read to the end!

Haruka paints a grand, expansive world.

The song was created by Ryujin Kiyoshi, who is active as a singer-songwriter and music producer.

It serves as the opening theme for the second cour of the anime Dr.

STONE NEW WORLD and is crafted as a ballad that reflects the epic story.

Because it sings about encounters and farewells—experiences everyone goes through—both viewers of the anime and those who haven’t seen it can relate.

The ultra high-tone vocals are also a major highlight.

IllusionMY FIRST STORY × HYDE

MY FIRST STORY × HYDE – “MUGEN” (from Anime “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba”) Official Music Video

IllusionMY FIRST STORY × HYDE

Released in June 2024 as the opening theme for the Demon Slayer: Hashira Training Arc anime, this track marks the first collaboration between MY FIRST STORY and HYDE.

While embracing profound themes such as eternity, life, and fate, it deftly portrays the protagonist’s inner turmoil at the boundary between dreams and reality.

Driven by a rock-based, fast-paced melody, the powerful vocals of MY FIRST STORY’s Hiro and HYDE blend seamlessly, resulting in a work rich in emotional expression.

Its strong affinity with the visuals creates a thrilling synergy with the anime’s world that stirs the heart.

It’s a perfect song to sing with full emotion at karaoke—highly recommended not just for rock fans, but for anime fans as well.
