Song Production Information
Seiryu
I love the moon.
When I traveled to Europe, while flying over Siberia, there was just a perfectly round moon floating in the empty, truly empty sky.
It looked just like a smooth and polished pearl.
The clear atmosphere above the clouds also helped draw an arc with an extremely high resolution.
When I stared at this shining universe, it felt like the whimsical light surrounded and healed my tired self from daily life.
The images from that time are deeply etched in my eyes.
Such lovely trip occurred four months after I completed this song.
Huh?! Oh, yeah. It was four months later. Nearly four months later.
The previous sentence was just to be cool. I'm sorry. I regret it.
When I created this song, I had vague thoughts such as "oh~, the moon. It's great~! So fabulous!".
Huh. That's right. It was four months later. I just extended it a bit.
Please don't make me say it again.
Well then, thank you very much for also checking it out today. I'm obviously Seiryu.
Also, person T somehow called this song "wowow".
I don't know why it's not abbreviated at all, so I added it.
I'm obviously Sei,,, huh?! No, that's because it was four months later!
1cm is also entirely four months later! I'm quite angry!
Video Production Information
GOLI
I was able to participate in a song which is part of the Four Heavenly Kings, so I seriously drew a dragon. Dragon motifs are very well-known in manga and TV, so many people might feel that they're commonly used.
But from an artist's perspective, it's unusual to find something very interesting as this.
It looks like a snake, but it's not a snake. It has antlers, but it's not a deer.
Dragons, wyverns, sea dragons... these are endless fantasies created by humans. They're very strange.
And this Seiryu song is labeled in my favorite genre that I listen to, and I listened to it quite frequently while creating this video.
I still can't hear what the vocals are saying in the opening.
It sounds like "awanao". I like this catchy song.
