Dragon Ash
We are in charge of the opening theme song of “Cestvs”.
We were very glad about this offer as we love anime as much as we love music. Normally we don’t do this, but we had read the scenario and the original world during the production of “Endeavor” as we want to match the world setting.
This song will express the fighting spirits and rebellious spirits that we don’t feel in our everyday life.
Also, we are looking forward to how the anime will depict the life-risking fights between the guys from the original work.
