Just in from Jump Festa 2026, Season 2 of anticipated anime, Hell’s Paradise (Japanese Name: Jigokuraku) based on the original story by Yuji Kaku is set to release on 11 January 2026. The official YouTube channel of Twin Engine released its new trailer:
The trailer features the opening song for this season, “FAINT FLOWER” which is performed by Tatsuya Kitani feat. BABYMETAL. The comments have arrived from both the artists:
A flower that has the strength to take root in the soil and the weakness to sway in the wind at the same time, and is not moved by anyone, and is made to be what it should be. A person who accepts hesitation and realizes himself while living while hesitating. Such a way of being that embodies fluctuations and hesitation blooms is modest and dignified, and has an ideal shape. I made a song that contains the longing for such “quiet flowers”.
Tatsuya Kitani
We usually collaborate with metal bands, but we are really happy to have a new BABYMETAL that we were able to bring out because of our collaboration with Tatsuya Kitani.
BABYMETAL
When I listened to this song, I felt that the dignified blooming flowers taught me the preciousness and beauty of “my existence” there. I would be happy if you could find a little happiness that you want to protect, like a faint hint of happiness for everyone.
