Japanese singer-songwriter Seiko Ohmori is celebrating five years since her major debut this year with a project entitled “Super Singer 5th Anniversary Handmade Miracle 5!” with which she intends to roll out five different things throughout the year.
The first was her new single Zettai Kanojo feat. Sayumi Michishige which was released on March 13. The second was the announcement of her first ever prefectural tour which begins in June and will take her to 47 all prefectures of Japan.
This time, it has been announced that she will perform the song JUSTadICE which will be used as the new opening theme for the popular ongoing anime series Black Clover. The song was released digitally on April 5, 2019.
The new anime opening video was also posted on her official YouTube channel.
Ohmori is responsible for having written the lyrics for and composed the track while ANCHOR (ZiNG), who arranged many of her tracks from her album Kusokawa Party, produced the album.
The catchy track has a guitar rock sound backed up by Ohmori’s high-pitched vocals laced with her characteristic word play. The lyrics reflect the feelings of the protagonist of the Weekly Shonen Jump series.
The digital song’s cover art was created by Kaoru Aoyagi and is very Ohmori-esque.

Vickeblanka ‘Black Catcher’ Official Music Videohttps://youtu.be/hP6VM6YAMIE Committed to releasing a new song digitally every month for three months, Black Catcher marks Vickeblanka’s second song release in the project. Black Catcher was written as the season 10 anime opening theme song for Black Clover. The ominous video reflects darkness and urgency, weaving the turbulent story with a sense of awakening. The colours of the video create a world of distorted paradise.
Although the new Black Clover episodes started airing just yesterday, the video for the opening theme song has already become a big sensation and is already showing signs of becoming the top fighting spirit song of 2020. A Statement by VickeblankaI cannot express just how privileged I feel to have been entrusted with creating the opening theme song for Black Clover for the second time now. The music video is a story of being purified by a small version of oneself. Although part of the video is just me messing around, I hope that viewers can connect with the song through the visuals created by the unique colours and atmosphere. Vickeblanka will release a new album called Devil on March 4, 2020 and is also set for Tour de Devil 2020. Tickets will be available to purchase from event hosts in the respective performance regions. ©Y/STB Information

Artist Vickeblanka will release a new song called Black Catcher on January 8, marking the second release of the singer's three-month digital song release plan. Black Catcher will be used as the tenth opening theme song for the anime Black Clover.
A strong melody pours out over the dark soundscape of this song. The groaning bassline is punctured by the sharp beat of the drums, over which the guitar melody glides gracefully, entwined with the turbulent yet beautiful piano accompaniment. The fighting spirit of the song rises with the endless strength of the vocals. This isn’t the first Black Clover opening theme song for Vickeblanka - the artist previously released the song Black Rover as a Black Clover anime opening. The song ranked at number 15 on Spotify’s 2019 list of most played Japanese songs overseas. At the moment, the sensational song has been played over 20 million times on streaming services and over 15 million times on just Spotify alone, leaving expectations for Vickeblanka’s upcoming track at an all-time high. A Statement by VickeblankaAs a Jump fan, I am extremely honoured to be in charge of a Black Clover opening for the second time now. As the story has progressed significantly since, I put a lot more empathy into this song. It is filled with darkness and a sense of urgency. Vickeblanka is set to release the new album Devil on March 4, marking the artist's third ever original album release in a year and four months. As fans reminisce of how we were drawn in by the euphoric world of Vickeblanka's previous album wizard, the complete change of tone with the new album Devil is sure to shock listeners. Vickeblanka will also embark on a tour titled Tour de Devil 2020 which consists of eight performances including some in Higashi-Meihan halls. The tour will kick off at Orix Theater, Osaka on April 29 and will arrive at NTK Hall Forest Hall, Nagoya on May 1. The final performance will take place on May 9 at Nakano Sunplaza in Tokyo. Tickets will be available to purchase from event hosts in the respective performance regions. ©Y/STB Information
