■”This is a song that is like a cheering song, sent to all those who are worried and conflicted in a world where someone’s justice is always at odds with others.” (Kenta Yamaguchi)

Osage’s new song “Fragment” has been selected as the ending theme for the second season of the TV anime “Ao no Miburo” (Yomiuri TV/Nippon TV nationwide network), which will begin broadcasting at 5:30 pm on January 11, 2025.

The new song “Fragment” is the title song of Osage’s 1st major EP “Fragment EP” which will be released on CD on January 15, 2025, and will be distributed in advance from 0:00 on January 11, 2025. At the same time, the jacket photo and CD content of “Fragment EP” have also been released.

The TV anime “Ao no Mibro” is the bluest and hottest story of the Shinsengumi drawn by Tsuyoshi Yasuda, which is currently being serialized in Kodansha’s “Weekly Shonen Magazine.” The story is set in Kyoto at the end of the Edo period, and the kind-hearted boy “Nio” meets the Mibu Roshi-gumi, commonly known as “Miburo”, which later became the “Shinsengumi”. After meeting them, the fate of an ordinary 13-year-old begins to change dramatically. The film passionately depicts the lives of the members of Mibro, who risk their lives and burn the flame of youth, taking on the challenge of fighting to prevent a world of fighting.

■osage Kenta Yamaguchi (Vo/Gu) Comment
My name is osage, and I am a four-person rock band who will be in charge of the ending theme for the second season of the TV anime “Ao no Mibro.”
First of all, congratulations on the broadcast of the second season. I am also feeling the joy of being a fan of the original work, and I am looking forward to seeing how our songs will mix with the work.
Now, this song called “Fragment” is like a cheering song, sent to all the people who are worried and conflicted in a world where someone’s justice is always at odds with each other.
At first glance, it may seem like there is light and shadow, good and evil, but that is only part of the story, and behind it there is always mutual justice. The epitome of this has not changed since the days when the main characters, Mibu Roshi and others, carried out their own righteousness.In fact, in today’s more complex world, isn’t it the time when we need the vitality to live in the future?
I hope this work and the songs will give you energy to live tomorrow.
