Even when your feelings connect with the person you like, you sometimes can’t help but feel uneasy, right? But those feelings of love keep growing, and eventually even that anxiety fades, letting you find happiness in even the smallest things.
It’s a winter song that captures a sweet-and-sour sensation amid the uncertainty.

Its fervent yet somehow cold melody evokes the anime’s fierce battle scenes.
That subtly cool atmosphere conjures the harshness of winter.
Even when the battlefield swelters with heat, conflict chills the heart—such is war.
This song lets you feel the wintry cold through those painful, grueling aspects.
