Mysterious Disappearances is a contemporary supernatural mystery that follows Sumireko Ogawa, an aspiring writer and bookstore clerk, and her colleague Ren Adashino as they confront a series of mysterious incidents occurring around town. The story blends elements of the supernatural, the shoujo genre, and human idiosyncrasies to create a tale of brief friendships and farewells amidst supernatural occurrences.
The ending theme song, titled “Akaku Somete Shinzo,” marks Nonoka Obuchi’s first time performing an anime theme song, and she enriches the world of the anime with her rich voice and expressive abilities.
The song is being produced by Neru, a charismatic Vocaloid producer known for creating addictive tunes like “Ashura-chan,” “Lost One’s Weeping,” and “Dappou Rock,” which have racked up millions of views. Despite being an ending theme, the song captivates viewers with its memorable and catchy melody, drawing them into the world of the anime.
The fact that Mafumafu is providing the opening theme and Neru the ending theme has also garnered significant attention. This is a combination that fans will not want to miss!
In the second promotional video, a portion of “Akaku Somete Shinzo” can be heard. Alongside the opening theme song “Hazard Symbol” by Yuyu, we highly recommend giving it a listen!
Nonoka Obuchi’s comment:
This is voice actress and singer Nonoka Obuchi. I will be singing the ending theme song “Akaku Somete Shinzo” for the TV anime Mysterious Disappearances.
Fact is indeed stranger than fiction. Since I was a little girl, I have spent many evenings immersed in books, and was also captivated by mysterious stories I found on the internet. It is astonishing to me that I should have the chance to be part of a work that combines both of these elements! I am honored by this opportunity and amazed by this mysterious twist of fate.
The song, written by Neru, is up-tempo and melodious. It is an ending theme that evokes both a sense of sorrow for the story’s passing and anticipation for future developments. I hope you will enjoy this excitement at the end of each episode.
Neru’s comment:
I am deeply honored to be involved as the lyricist and composer for the ending theme song sung by Nonoka Obuchi.
Although it’s an ending theme, I was requested to create a song to rival the opening, and I did my best to deliver a high energy track.
I sincerely hope that you will be able to further enjoy the world of Mysterious Disappearances through this music.
