In my teenage years, I listened to a lot of 80s Eurobeat, which really influenced my musical style.<br>
So, hearing that the musical style was making a comeback, I decided to make a Neo 80s song to my taste.<br>
While I wanted to express a feeling of nostalgia, I also wanted to use modern musical creations and arrangements.<br>
I used the key of A minor to express the feeling of loneliness, and then change it to the major key only for a moment.<br>
The four lines in the chorus, particularly the line in the chorus "Broken Heart", work really well with the rhythm of the song.<br>
I think that I have finished a suitable song for a music game like beatmania IIDX 20.

=== NAGI ===
From the moment that I heard this song, I was impressed and felt drawn towards it.<br>
Whoa, I think it was very cool!<br>
So I started to imagine what animation to make and I kept thinking about a character battling against an enemy winning and losing....<br>
And as the story started to come together, I started becoming more excited and said "Yes! Let's make an animation!"<br>
And the results....


Untranslated.
Animators are gods (-゛-；)

Well...Ummm.....<br>
 
I really wanted to do more for the animation than what I could actually put in the actual movie, so next time, I'll try to be more devoted to my work.
