[Comment]
It seems that each other is as warm as the sun that breaks through the thick clouds. Rintaro and Kaoruko seemed to have such a relationship. A look that innocently jumps over the walls that they have built against the outside world like a child. I made it as straight as possible to say that I am an irresistibly happy and beloved existence.

New Information Ending Theme: “Reira Shio” “A special day”

[Comment]
As the ending theme of “Fragrant Flowers are Blooms”, I wrote “Hare no Hi”. It was my first experience to read the original and write it down, and I felt a lot of things. This story smelled of a little bit of love.
I’m happy that I’ve come to the point where I can imagine the choice of words and the melody, and I’m really happy when it was adopted. I’m looking forward to seeing how the characters from this anime live in my songs, and how they will live in the future when I sing them.
I hope that “Fragrant flowers bloom dignifiedly” and “Hare Day” will have the same scent for everyone.

[Profile]
Born February 9, 2002. A singer-songwriter from Edogawa-ku, Tokyo.
I belonged to the high school light music club to overcome my anxiety, but I realized that it was more fun to make it myself than to copy it, so I started writing the lyrics/composition when I was 16 years old.
Based on my experience of advancing to a literary department at an art university, I feel that I can make use of the margins when I choose my own words, and I feel that it is more suitable for me, so I decided to live with just one music. A clear, strong voice. An addictive melody that makes you want to hear it over and over again. The story spun with dramatic lyrics creates a sense of emotion and leaves an impulse. “Sentimental Kiss”, which was used as the BGM in a romance program in 2022, is widely used by word of mouth and SNS, especially among young people. The number of songs used has exceeded 15,000, the total number of views of the video has exceeded about 230 million, and the total number of views for streaming worldwide has exceeded 50 million. It is ranked number one on the chart-in on each music distribution service and the viral chart. On August 14, 2024, the first CD, EP “No One” was released. The lead song “Itoshiihito” has won power play at more than 20 radio stations nationwide and won 2nd place in the Billboard Heatseekers Songs. In 2025, it is attracting attention, such as being selected as one of the “next trends” that high school students expect as “the latest trends for spring 2025”. From September 2025, the “USHIO REIRA ONE MAN TOUR “Nebosuke”” will be held nationwide.

A heartwarming and pure kyun youth school story that will captivate your heart with straight feelings.
The gentle and warm story stands out even in shonen manga magazines, and has become a hot topic since the serialization started. The cumulative circulation has exceeded 5 million copies (as of June 2025).

A talented staff gathers, led by director Miyuki Kuroki.
CloverWorks, which has produced many hits, is in charge of animation production.
A gem of youth story is vividly colored.

■ Synopsis
– The other side of the curtain. “It’s a world that has nothing to do with me.”
Chidori, a boys’ school at the bottom where idiots gather, is hated by Kikyo Joshi, a young lady’s school with good history.
The curtains are always closed and I’ve never seen the classrooms of the adjacent school buildings.
Rintaro Tsumugi, who goes to Chidori, is always judged to be a scary person, and since he was shunned, he started to keep a distance from people.
One day, he meets Kaoruko, who has come as a customer while helping out at her parents’ cake shop.
“Have you never thought that Rintaro-kun was scary?”
Rintaro begins to feel comfortable with Kaoruko, who has no prejudice to Rintaro, but she is a student of Kikyo.
A vivid youthful school story woven by two people who are “close and distant”.
