Flying DeityAyase×R-shitei
Hiten, a digital single chosen as the opening theme for the newly remade 2023 TV anime Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Swordsman Romantic Story.
Created by R-Shitei—known from Creepy Nuts and Umeda Cipher—and Ayase, active as a Vocaloid producer and a member of YOASOBI, the track’s breakneck call-and-response creates a thrilling ensemble that really amps you up.
The lyrics, which link to the anime’s story, evoke a universal theme: even in doubt, you can only keep moving forward.
It’s a track that lingers with the striking contrast between aggressive rap and lyrical melody.
Until the World Ends…WANDS

It’s a massive hit by WANDS, a flagship band of the Being music scene, released in 1994 as their eighth single.
The song sings about the hope of dreaming of tomorrow, and perhaps because of its message and soaring vocals, it really stirs the emotions.
