Production and recording of the theme song
KOTOKO performed and wrote the lyrics, composed by Famishin, arranged by Satoshi Inohara, performed by Hideki Onoue on shamisen, and played guitar by Yasuo Asai. The soundtrack CD contains the full length of this opening song.
Lyrics and vocal promotion
Famishin appreciated KOTOKO's wording and hoped she would write the lyrics and perform the songs. The character song commercial first features a shamisen playing as the intro, followed by the opening video showcasing Hideki Onoe's actual performance.
On-site use in 2026
The LF stage rearrangement for Yuzu Soft SongFes 2026 titled "Koi Hi Koi Fu En" is also rearranged. Famishin decided the sequence and structure of the medley, the live team handled the transitions between the pieces, and the band's performance needed to match the vocals and visuals.
KOTOKO also performed "Koi Hi Koi Fu En" at the Tachikawa performance. In her review, Famishin mentioned that she was unable to perform in the previous year, but this time she presented the song in Tachikawa.
Song and original opening sequence
The 2016 opening video was produced by Rodo, featuring SD illustrations that match the song. In his development review, Famishin cited the use of Lena's illustrations, introducing the combination of music and film.
