I want to give some credit to whichever employee was awake enough to add romaji to title after seeing the youtube recommendation army of foreigners coming in. We need more people like you if japanese music is to become mainstream abroad. EDIT: Since I made this comment they translated the entire song to english subs, updating my comment to repeat that this team is doing an amazing job!

[@gerijokub7737]

I've noticed that as well :) that's very nice of them.

[@luapchalos]

many japanese artists are beginning to see just how big of a potential audience they have internationally, while still retaining what makes their work distinctly and completely japanese. while some still aren't interested, or at least not yet, the rest are slowly working in new approaches to expand their reach, and it's wonderful to watch happen.

I've been listening to this song, and Higuchi Ai, ever since this song came out. I always thought she deserved so much more recognition as she has such a beautiful voice. To see her sing the newest season of AoT's ending, the ending song to the final season of an masterpiece class anime, of which I've been watching since 2013, it's made me so incredibly happy. I started fangirling over hearing it the first time the ending came on. I'm so happy for Higuchi.

[@shawnatlast]

Hope people check her music out. It's some of the best right now. Can't believe she got a song in AoT of all anime
