Flower of FateTogenashi Togeari
The band Togenasitogeari that appears in the anime Girls Band Cry isn’t just a fictional group—it’s a real band, and they also voice the characters in the show.

This song, which is used as an insert track in episode 13, has a more intense tempo than a typical Canon, but if you listen closely, you’ll notice it follows the Canon progression.
Songs that use the Canon progression can sound completely different depending on tempo and groove—and that’s part of the charm.
