What You Need to Know:
- TRUE, who celebrates her 10th anniversary as an anime song singer this year, has announced that she will release her first double A-side single on April 24. This single will feature “ReCoda,” the opening theme song of Sound! Euphonium 3, and “Blue Days,” the opening theme song of As a Reincarnated Aristocrat, I’ll Use My Appraisal Skill to Rise in the World. Both series are set to premiere in April in Japan.
- “ReCoda” can be said to be the culmination of TRUE’s work on the Sound! Euphonium series, for which she has sung all of the theme songs. Rather than looking back on the past, this song serves as an anthem for those who have lived through past experiences and are now embracing the present. Sung in a strong and refreshing tone, the lyrics convey a message like, “The days that I spent immersing myself in something made me the person I am today,” evoking memories of youth that everyone has experienced.
- “Blue Days,” the opening theme song of As a Reincarnated Aristocrat, I’ll Use My Appraisal Skill to Rise in the World,” is a song that expresses the world of the anime in a grand yet light-hearted way. It has a kindness that seems to extend a helping hand to the listener, making them feel more optimistic.
- Furthermore, the Artist Edition includes TRUE’s first Valentine’s Day song, titled “Gift.” The lyrics are filled with words of love for someone special, creating a sweet pop tune that conveys irresistible feelings of happiness.
