Misaki's illness progresses. The feelings of the surrounding people are also exposed. And the comments of Kazutoshi Sakurai, who wrote and composed the theme song, were released. [Comment / Mr.Children Kazutoshi Sakurai] I feel that there is something important in this story that I left somewhere in the past, something that I was about to forget. I made this song by synchronizing with. Also, this year marks the 30th anniversary of our debut as Mr. Children, and being able to make this song with Takeshi Kobayashi for the first time in a long time was an important time to reconfirm our music. I am simply grateful for the encounter. Don't miss it and burn it until the last moment.
