Rock band Survive Said the Prophet will perform the opening theme song for the upcoming anime series Tokyo 24th Ward. The track is titled Paper Sky.
The series will be written by Nitroplus’s Vio Shimokura and will be his first time working on an anime series. Character designs were done by FiFS, a popular illustrator among women. CloverWorks will handle the animation, popular for other franchises such as Horimiya, Wonder Egg Priority, and the upcoming Spy x Family adaptation. Naokatsu Tsuda will serve as director, known for his work on JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure.
Paper Sky was written exclusively for the series and is an emotional and fast-paced track with the message of taking the future into your hands. Part of the track can be heard in the first preview for the series, which is scheduled to release in January 2022.
Tokyo 24th Ward – First Preview
Comment from Yosh (Vo)
We were given the opportunity to write the opening theme for Tokyo 24th Ward and subsequently created Paper Sky.
I imagined the near-future as I sang this track, somewhere within this mysterious 24th Ward. I wanted to express the idea of looking upward and moving forward despite the pain that comes with growing up.
I hope that you enjoy this series and this new track.
