BLAZE LINE/a day dreaming… news – single cover released and the title of the third song!

Back-on have released the CD single cover for BLAZE LINE/a day dreaming…! It appears to be inspired by Eyeshield 21 as it features a picture of an American Football player(s) on the field, which is understandable considering two of the three songs are currently known to feature in the anime as the opening (OP) and ending (ED) theme!

I really love the single cover (gorgeous colours and such an appropriately themed design!) – although I do wonder who’s back we’re looking at? I’m fairly sure it’s not Gori as he doesn’t appear to have tattoos on his arms (see picture from the KERA inteview) The most likely candidate is TEEDA (who’s arm I think is found on the cover of Chain… hmm I say the weirdest things) and the best example I can find to support my hypothesis is a screenshot from the New World MV of Teeda‘s back.

I could use another picture to demonstrate the tattoo at the front of his right arm, but even I think that’s going a bit overboard, wouldn’t you agree? :p

And equally important piece of news is that Back-on have also released the title of the third song on the single, called EYES. So the tracklisting of the entire single is as follows:

1. BLAZE LINE
2. a day dreaming…
3. EYES

I wouldn’t be surprised if EYES were to feature at a later date in Eyeshield 21. If you didn’t already know it, you can already watch and download the mp3 for the TV-size version of a day dreaming…, which was released on April 11th 2007 as the new ED. BLAZE LINE (TV-size) is due out as the new OP from May 2nd 2007, Episode 104: 一つ欠けたライン (Missing a line), and the single itself will be out on June 6th 2007.

New Lyrics – Hikari Sasuhou ヒカリサスホウ

Today heralds the release of the lyrics for Hikari Sasuhou ヒカリサスホウ! It seems lot of people have been looking for these, especially since the release of the Murder Princess OVA. Although the lyrics are slightly different from the Hikari Sasuhou (FK Metal ver.) as Back-on appear to have ‘mashed’ the lyrics from two different verses and added a bit more, hopefully it will still help others!

I spent most of yesterday trying to figure out how to type in Japanese, as well as reference Kanji. This particular release is a result of that hard work, so please do not re-post these lyrics elsewhere without prior permission. The lyrics come in the original Kanji format as well as the usual Hiragana and Romaji.

I have tried to pick up as many errors as possible but if you spot anything amiss please let me know! If you like the release, please do make a comment to show your appreciation :) I’m going to continue working on more Back-on lyrics over the next few days so watch this space!

Remember you can download and listen to both Hikari Sasuhou and Hikari Sasuhou (FK Metal ver.) in the Music section of Back-on Online before the next section update. I’m happy to say that at the moment, Chain has been downloaded 60 times, but Hikari Sasuhou has been the clear favourite at a whopping 112 downloads!
