I am filled with excitement and gratitude for being able to work on this wonderful work called “A Pharmacist’s Monologue.”

When I compose songs, I often express my personal feelings in the lyrics, but “Recipe for Happiness” is a combination of my feelings and the frustrating relationship between Maomako and Jinji that appears throughout the story. I think we ended up with a song that matched well.

The ending theme is a relaxing ending to a story that continues to unfold in a breathless way, and makes you wonder what will happen next, making you look forward to the next week. I hope you enjoy it.
