Two years have passed since I first sang the ending theme song "WISh" for the 1st season of "Legend of the Galactic Heroes: Die Neue These" "Kaiko" in 2018.
I am honored to participate in such a wonderful work again.
The ending theme song "Hikari no Hoshi" was written and composed by SIRA, and became the song where you can find a new ELISA. I think I tried my best while keeping the impressive world view of "Legend of the Galactic Heroes". Please enjoy the song together with the movie. I will enjoy as much as I can as well.
