The guitar rock band “kobore” from Fuchu, Tokyo has released a short lyric video for “36.5,” the theme song for the movie “A Story Here,” which will be released on Friday, November 8th.
“36.5” is Kobore’s first song written for a movie, and is a medium ballad that feels close to those who live hard in their busy lives. Part of the song was already shown in the movie’s trailer, but in this short lyric video, you can listen to the song along with the lyrics along with the movie’s main footage.
The movie “A Story Here” marks the feature-length debut of director Ryoma Kosasa, who has previously directed many of Kobore’s music videos. The short lyric video that was released this time was also completed by director Kosasa himself, paying close attention to every detail.
Takeshi Sato (Vo./Gt.) was involved in the production of “36.5”.
“(With director Kosasa) we worked hard to create a balance between the nuances of the song and the gentleness of the lyrics. We worked in great detail to create a song that would say to the listener, “You don’t have to push yourself too hard.” Looking back, he said, “There are many situations where I force myself to do something, so I approached the production of the song with the feeling that I would empathize with it when I heard it myself.”
Their new album “FLARE”, which includes the theme song “36.5” for the movie “A Story Here”, will be released on November 27th.
From upper tunes that are a must-have at live houses to ballad-like love songs, this is a record where you can hear various aspects of Kobore.
The first limited edition of this work will be sold exclusively at Columbia Music Shop and Tower Records.
In addition to the regular CD, it comes in a luxurious package that includes a trading card with member illustrations (all 5 random types) and a 3D rubber figure with the band logo.Pre-orders are now open, so please check it out.
In addition, to commemorate the release of the album, it has been decided that an “In-Store Live & Autograph Session” will be held at the Tower Records Shibuya store, and an “Online Talk & Autograph Session” for purchasers at Columbia Music Shop!
The in-store live performance will feature an acoustic lineup that is different from the usual live performances, so this is also a must-see.
In addition, purchasers will receive special benefits that vary depending on the store where they are purchased, so be sure to make your reservations early.
moreover,
Along with the release of the album, it has also been decided that a release tour “FLARE TOUR 2025” will be held.
The first 12 performances will be with a band, and the latter 9 performances will be solo performances, making this tour a total of 21 performances across the country.
I hope you’re looking forward to seeing what kind of guests will appear.

[STORY]This is a resting place in life.
Guest house “Coco” stands in the hustle and bustle of the city right after the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. Utako, who works as a live-in part-time worker, lives a modest but contented life with the owner, Hirofumi, a former traveler, and Izumi, who is addicted to social media and distributes life hack videos. The people who come to this place are troubled young people such as Zon, who has no goals after his part-time job goes bankrupt, and Xiaolu, a Chinese girl who has given up on her dream of becoming a voice actor and tries to get a job, but is urged by her parents to return to Japan. . And Utako, who greets customers with a smile, also has a past where she left the countryside for some reason…
“Breaks are important. You can rest while thinking.” Life here gradually loosens the minds of people who are tired from daily life.
