Ishida Sui’s comment on “Rakuen no Kimi”

[source]

Work Introduction

A solo project by Takahashi Kunimitsu (ex. the cabs), österreich. For this new song, "Rakuen no Kimi", Iida Mizuki from cinema staff is providing the vocals! Furthermore, Yamaguchi Daigo from People In The Box, the performers of Tokyo Ghoul's ending theme "Seijatachi", is on the drums; and Kamano Ai who performed Tokyo Ghoul √A's opening theme "Munou" was invited for backing vocals. It certainly is a lineup suitable to embellish the final chapter of Tokyo Ghoul's TV anime!

Ishida Sui’s Comment

Originally, I liked the band the cabs.

I particularly like the song called "Nigatsu no Heitai"; at around the time of volume 7, I was pretty much exclusively listening to this song while I drew.

If it became an anime, I considered I’d like the cabs to make music for it.

By the time I finished drawing volume 7, the cabs had broken up.

After many twists and turns, I had Takahashi Kunimitsu make a song called "Munou". As a result, we began to talk little by little.

We also talked about the cabs on occasion. "It's my dream to have cabs do even a single song someday".

And so that was the result - due to us meeting, all sorts of things happened; due to the outside world, all sorts of things did not come true; but that was fine, I think.

Since I realized early on that "I like it because it's the music made by Takahashi Kunimitsu", as the production of "Rakuen no Kimi" comes to a close, I've been able to see many good things.

The thing that was particularly striking was the words Kunimitsu-kun said when he finished the song.

When he finished songs, he would usually always lament it, saying "Why did I make something like this?" (it's not like that, I'd think). But now, for the first time, he said "I think this is a good song".

That made me very happy.

I feel the same way. I'm glad I've been able to see the production of this song to the end.

To the people who supported this song: Iwakubo-san, Daigo-san, Kamano-san, Kawadzura-san from the engineering team; thank you very much.

To Iida-san from cinema staff: thank you very much for your wonderful singing. It was the greatest.
