When I first got the offer to sing the theme song for ‘A Silent Voice’, I was completely blown away. I loved reading the manga series, and I got so into the series, I once actually talked about the whole 1st volume at one of my concerts. And so, not only am I absolutely thrilled for this wonderful opportunity, but I also want to sing a song that will connect me closely to this film. Recently, I’ve been so pumped and giving my all, and it does gets tiring, but I’m so happy to be able to do this. Thank you so much! Ahhhhhh! Yayyy! Sorry, I can’t contain my excitement, but I hope you will all love it, too.
