- MindaRyn talked about the joy of being part of TenSura, which she fell in love with while living in Thailand, being continually involved in anime, and her thoughts and enthusiasm that she put into the theme song “Make Me Feel Better.” She said that, “This theme song is about ‘the bonds of friendship’ and ‘being connected,’ so it has a very bright feel to it. The feeling of hope is also reflected in the lyrics and melody. As I sang, I thought about the happiness that lies ahead of overcoming hardships together with friends.”

Theme Song “Make Me Feel Better”: MindaRyn
Comments
TenSura is one of the works I really love and when I was chosen to sing the opening theme song for the TV anime, I was so happy that I nearly fainted. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d get offered to sing for the movie, so I feel very honored to do so. The main theme of the theme song “Make Me Feel Better” is “the bonds of friendship.” I think it connects well with the bonds depicted between Rimuru and the people of Tempest and Hiiro and Benimaru in the movie, and conveys the feeling that they can overcome anything for the sake of their loved ones. Together with their friends they overcome their hardships, and I sang while thinking about the happiness that lies ahead of them. It’s a song in which you can feel the bonds of friendship and the refreshing feeling you get after an adventure comes to an end. Please be sure to enjoy the movie and the song in theaters!

STORY
The story is set in Raja, located to the west of Tempest. It used to be a flourishing nation thanks to its gold mines, but now there is no trace of the prosperity that once existed—the mines have poisoned the lake and the nation has fallen into dire states. Queen Towa used the magical power of her tiara, which has been passed down from generation to generation in the royal family, to remove the poison and protect her people. However, the magic comes at a cost. The curse that was cast upon the tiara has consumed her body and is eating away at her life. Amidst all of this, a survivor of the Ogres, Hiiro, suddenly appears in Tempest. He’s supposedly Benimaru’s older brother and tells them that his life was saved by Towa. Hiiro, who has come to Tempest to enlist the aid of Rimuru to help him save Raja and Towa, has a fateful reunion with Benimaru. Rimuru and friends make their way towards Raja to help the nation out from its crisis and unravel the mysteries surrounding Towa’s curse, but they find themselves getting embroiled into an unbelievable conspiracy.
