◇YOASOBI comment
For some time now, when I’ve been asked about my favorite anime series, I always answer “Bakemonogatari,” and I’ve always had a fondness for the “Monogatari” series.
When it was decided that I would be in charge of the music for the latest work, I was really happy and soared. I created this with all my heart and soul, filled with love for the work and each of the characters that appear in it. Thank you all for your support.
I am truly honored to be able to be involved in the form of music in the latest work of the Monogatari series, which has been loved by many people for a long time. I sang while carefully interpreting each of the feelings of the characters that appear in this work. I hope you enjoy listening to it.

A prequel or sequel.
