Natsume has worked on numerous acclaimed anime titles, including One Punch Man, ACCA: 13-Territory Inspection Dept., and The Tatami Time Machine Blues. He garnered widespread attention with his first original TV anime, Sonny Boy.
“Ghost” (working title) evokes a deeply genuine yet indescribable emotion that lingers in everyone’s heart. The lyrics explore the quiet loneliness and quiet courage of Nike, a young girl who defies a senseless world in order to protect the starry sky. Through her connections with others, the song delicately portrays the emotional complexities within her heart.
