Crunchyroll, the global streaming platform, today announced a groundbreaking partnership with UK rapper and anime fan Che Lingo, for an original song created to celebrate the Fall 2023 season!
The song « Lifetime » is a reflection on the key themes found in anime. It is performed with Japanese singer MIKU NAKAMURA from the rock band Cö shu Nie, who notably penned the « Give it back » ending to the first season of JUJUTSU KAISEN.
Crunchyroll Fall Anime Lineup Trailer:
After exploring the themes of dark fantasy and its epic battles, Che Lingo has developed a song that highlights opposites and the duality between shadow and light. The lyrics of « Lifetime » echo the initiatory journeys of shônen heroes, who must overcome challenges and difficulties throughout their adventures. MIKU’s voice, complementary to Che Lingo’s, adds a lighter touch and echoes this duality.

« Anime inspires so much freedom, and we were able to exercise that creatively to the beat of a unique drum to show a genuine connection between anime, music and story-telling, manifesting a moment we can all celebrate through ‘LIFETIME’. I hope the sentiment lasts as long as the title suggests. »
Fans can listen to a sample of the song by watching Crunchyroll’s fall anime trailer, available on the YouTube channel. The full song will soon be available in its entirety on Spotify.
