The music video, in which visuals and sound are beautifully harmonized, was created by illustrator and manga artist Miku Masuda and has surpassed 1.7 million views.
The track was included on the acclaimed 2016 album “Shinonome,” with a re-recorded version released in August 2023, and was later featured on the album “FANFARE.” When your feelings for someone seem on the verge of running wild, listening to this song may help you face your emotions.
Kasane AiSoala

A heart-stirring ballad by Soala that paints the ache of lost love in beautifully poignant words.
Wrapped in a clear, gentle voice, it tenderly holds the regret for a love that might have lasted if only they had met differently, and the feelings that will never again converge.
Released in January 2025 and included on the EP “Bluem,” the song also drew attention for its music video featuring model Suzuka Orita and actor Yusei Ito.
With a melody that sinks into the heart, it portrays memories of happy days and the fragile story of a love that ends in parting.

ContrastTOMOO

A gem of a love song that exquisitely interweaves longing for someone with a tender ache.
The feelings TOMOO weaves—wavering between the joy and loneliness of love—gently embrace emotions anyone can relate to.
That bittersweet yearning of having someone right before your eyes yet being unable to close the distance between your hearts.
The pure emotion that slips out despite putting on a brave face.
Carefully giving voice to the heart of someone in unrequited love, this song has been airing since January 2024 as the ending theme for cour 2 of the anime Blue Box.
It’s a track we especially recommend to those who are in the midst of a romance, with their loved one nearby yet unable to be fully honest about their feelings.
CHE.R.RYYUI

Let me introduce a song that refreshingly portrays a bittersweet spring romance.
Delicately expressing the feelings of unrequited love conveyed through cell phone emails, this track by YUI gently sings about the beginning of love—something everyone has experienced at least once.
With warmth, it depicts the protagonist, who isn’t good with emojis, having their heart skip a beat at messages from their crush and fretting over the back-and-forth of replies with pure sincerity.
Released in March 2007, the song resonated with many and was later included on the album “CAN’T BUY MY LOVE.” It was also used as the ending theme for the anime “ReLIFE: Final Arc.” It’s a perfect cheer song for those experiencing their first love in a new environment, or for anyone ready to take a new step forward with the arrival of spring.
