Thank you very much for allowing me to sing the opening theme song for the TV anime “Gimai Seikatsu.”

“Tenshi-tachi no Uta” was carefully composed to be a song that would quietly blend into the world of “Gimai Seikatsu” and into the lives of everyone who listens to it.
The song is filled with the casual and precious relationships we have with family, friends, lovers, and the people around us, as well as the miracles and hopes that come in unexpected moments in our daily lives.
We hope that this song will be close to the heart of each and every one of you.
I am very honored to be in charge of the ending theme song for “Gimai Seikatsu.”
Kitri
I never knew that becoming a family can sometimes be a sense of security and sometimes create invisible walls.
I wrote “Aquarium Swing” with the desire to look into their relationship and feelings, which keep changing like waves, and to gently watch the direction they are going.
In a world where things are often black and white, “Gimai Seikatsu” is packed with things that cannot be easily expressed in one word.
I would be happy if this song, which is not yet in any color, is dyed in the color of your choice through the story.
The additional staff members who are working on this anime are also announced:

Yen Press licensed this manga in English and describes its plot as:
“When his father remarries, Yuuta Asamura winds up sharing a roof with a brand-new stepsister, who is also the hottest girl in his grade! But Yuuta and his new sister, Saki Ayase, have no delusions—they both carry trauma from their parents’ difficult divorces, and they agree to keep a respectful distance. As it turns out, however, the two have a lot in common, and slowly, cautiously, they grow closer. But is the emotion blooming between them simple admiration, familial love, or something more?“
