7co to Perform Opening Theme for You and I Are Polar Opposites Season 2

Japanese artist 7co has announced their major debut single, “nekojarashi”. The song will serve as the opening theme for Season 2 of the anime You and I Are Polar Opposites, marking 7co’s first anime tie-in.

Written specifically for the series, “nekojarashi” combines emotional lyrics with a light and energetic sound inspired by the story’s youthful romance. The title references the foxtail plant, symbolizing resilience and sincere emotions.

The single will be released worldwide on July 5, the same day Season 2 premieres in Japan.

7co will also hold their first self-produced live event, “75 no Hi vol.1,” on July 5 and is scheduled to perform at SUMMER SONIC 2026.

Comment from 7co:
“When I first read the manga, I seriously started wondering if there was any way to become a student again. I also became completely obsessed with Tani-kun’s cat, ‘Tempura’, to the point that every lyric in my first demo probably included the word ‘Tempura.’ During recording, I imagined Suzuki-san the entire time, and I sang in a slightly different tone than I usually do.

This song expresses the bittersweet feelings of young love and the fleeting emotions of youth through the image of a foxtail plant growing quietly by the roadside. It would make me incredibly happy if this song could gently support the feelings of the characters in the story.”
