ClariS
“ALIVE” is a song with a sense of speed and power that ClariS has never had before, so we put our whole heart and soul into singing it. The tempo was slowed down and the arrangement was more dramatic than the original song, so we were able to put more emotion into the song and sing the lyrics with a greater sense of meaning than usual. As the TV anime “Lycoris Recoil” is an original anime, we were very interested in how the story was going to unfold and enjoyed watching it, and we were very surprised that the response was more than we expected. We were glad that many of you enjoyed the anime together with “ALIVE”.
