Lyrics
I'm walking without a care Not a clue to where I'm going Could this be an oasis? Maybe I should stop and have a look I notice somebody there Underneath a tree she's waiting With the sun in her hair She looks like an angel Flew down from heaven She's a lady Libra! All I can do Is hope that she Will share it all with me Once in a lifetime You find someone (someone you could - fall in love) Libra...Shining in the sun (by a watefall she's waiting) She's my reason to run (every breath anticipating) Running for the first time Running for the first time In my life Through the mist I see her Gotta catch that girl Before she is gone

Song Production Information
Nakamura
This song is about a man who is captivated by the beauty of a woman basking in the sunlight filtering through the trees in a misty forest.
Thomas Howard Lichteinstein's voice perfectly fits the image of such a refreshing song.
The song title, "Libra", refers to the Zodiac constellation Libra, and in this song, the woman who is bathed in sunlight through the trees is the Libra woman.

Junko Yamagami, who drew the illustrations for this clip, has been a friend of mine since I was a student at an illustration school in Kyoto.
I asked her the illustrations for this time because I thought that her hand-drawn illustrations would go well with the gentle tune of this song.
I'm glad that Mr. Nakamura seemed to like it too. She does a lot of work related to print media, but this time she boldly took on the challenge of creating images for a game.
We plan to introduce all of our guest designers in the Designer's Room at some point. Please look forward to it.
The port to the game console was done by nono, who worked hard to bring the watercolor touch to life.
Junko Yamagami
For the first time, I took on the challenge of having my illustrations move.
I was very anxious about how it would turn out, because I didn't have a clear idea of what would happen if I did it this way, but I was very happy to see it take shape.
Recently, I have been running after dinner to keep up with the Libra illustrations. I'll grow stronger.
