This heartwarming song depicts the universal theme of graduation, interweaving bittersweetness and hope.
Created by Ashu and released in October 2024, it is included on the compilation album “Futaba Minato Official Compilation Futaba Mix 01.” Futaba Minato’s clear, transparent vocals gently weave scenes like a classroom where cherry blossoms dance, the ticking of a second hand, and the breeze swaying by the window.
It expresses the feelings of overcoming the sadness of parting and wishing for a reunion, carried by a band-driven sound.
It will surely resonate not only with those approaching graduation, but also with anyone who has experienced a farewell with someone dear.

Set at a starlit nighttime ball, this enchanting work spins a fantastical tale.
Aimer’s husky voice blends exquisitely with the classical waltz motif, vividly portraying mysterious scenes unfolding in the stillness of the night.
Beautiful like a fairy tale yet tinged with a certain wistfulness, its world seems to mirror the feelings of a girl wavering on the boundary between dreams and reality.
Included on the single “SCOPE,” released in February 2025, and broadcast around the same time on NHK’s Minna no Uta, this piece is made all the more magical by arrangements from Ryota Nakano and Yusuke Tanaka.

Soft scarCocco
Singer-songwriter Cocco, who was active in the 2000s.
For those in their early to mid-40s, she’s arguably a defining artist of their generation.
Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is Yawaraka na Kizuato (Soft Scars).
It has the feel of straightforward J-pop, similar to what Aimyon represents today.
There’s a falsetto part toward the end of the chorus, but because it’s sung very softly, even those who struggle with high notes should be able to sing it without any trouble.
KindnessFujii Kaze
This is a song by Fujii Kaze that delicately portrays the confusion and complex feelings that arise when touched by someone else’s kindness.
Even while being enveloped in a warm gaze, you can’t help but feel your own immaturity and weakness.
That emotional wavering is depicted alongside gentle piano melodies.
Released in April 2020 and included on the album “HELP EVER HURT NEVER,” the track was also used in a TV commercial for NatureLab’s Laundrin.
It’s a song to listen to when you can’t be honest about your feelings or when you’re struggling with a relationship with someone important.
A heartwarming ballad that helps you realize the true value of kindness.
YAH YAH YAHCHAGE and ASKA
It is an aggressive track emblematic of the ’90s, infused with power and passion for the future.
Even when faced with difficult circumstances, its message of unwavering resolve to stay true to oneself and keep moving forward, along with hope for the future, continues to resonate across generations.
The song channels the passion of chasing dreams and an unyielding stance in the face of trials through a powerful rock sound.
Released by CHAGE and ASKA in March 1993, it was used as the theme song for the drama “If You Turn Around, He’s There,” topped the Oricon Weekly Chart for two consecutive weeks, sold 2.
419 million copies, and ranked first on the annual singles chart.
