■Introduction
When his father Taichi remarried, high school student Yuta Asamura met a girl his age, Saki Ayase, and her mother, Akiko.
They will be living under the same roof.
Both of them experienced parental discord and divorce, so they are cautious about relationships.
They promise to maintain an appropriate distance as step-siblings.

“I expect nothing from you, so you should expect nothing from me.”

By sharing their thoughts and working things out, Yuuta and Saki come to understand each other.
Just as I was beginning to feel comfortable in my new life,
Their relationship slowly but surely begins to change…

This is a story that may one day lead to love.
“Strangers” become “family” and beyond.
A love life story that reflects the gradual changes in daily life.

[fhána Profile]
A three-piece band formed in 2011 by Junichi Sato (key, cho), Towana (vocal), and Kevin Mitsunaga (sampler, etc.).

They made their major debut with “Que Sera Sera” (the ending theme for the TV anime “Uchouten Kazoku”) in August 2013. The following year, they were selected by iTunes as one of the “NEW ARTISTS 2014” artists who were sure to break out, and their first album “Outside of Melancholy” reached 8th place on the Oricon Weekly chart.

To date, she has sung theme songs for 17 anime works, and continues to present a rich musicality while staying true to the worldview of the works. In addition, the music video for her 10th single, “Blue Sky Rhapsody” (the opening theme song for the TV anime Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid) has been viewed over 53.96 million times on YouTube (as of May 2024). “Supreme Love!” (the opening theme song for the TV anime Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid S) was highly praised from all walks of life as soon as it was released, and the music video has been viewed over 18.78 million times and won various awards.

The central figure, Junichi Sato, made his major debut in 2006 as the vocalist of the band “FLEET”, and after forming fhána, he began to actively work as a composer, arranger, and music producer, providing songs to other artists. As of 2022, he has written theme songs for 29 TV anime, TV dramas, and anime movies, including songs for fhána and those for which he has provided songs. He has also won the Heisei Anime Song Award Composition Award, the Reiwa 2 Anime Song Award Arrangement Award, and the Reiwa 3 Anime Song Award Work Award, Arrangement Award, and User Vote Award.

Vocalist Towana made her solo debut in July 2022 with the ending theme “Veil” for the TV drama “Riso no Kareshi.” Kevin Mitsunaga also appears at various events as a DJ, and each member is expanding their scope of activities.

They are also well-known for their live performances, regularly holding solo tours in Japan and actively appearing at events overseas. Since 2020, they have also been active and flexible with the times, holding many online concerts. They have appeared at the world’s largest anime song festival, “Animelo Summer Live,” for seven consecutive years. While still centered on the anime song world, they have also continued to appear at “ROCK IN JAPAN FESTIVAL” and “COUNTDOWN JAPAN,” crossing the boundaries of genres and borders and gaining respect from all quarters.
A solo live tour is also scheduled to take place in Osaka, Nagoya, and Tokyo starting in November 2024.
