A Statement by Yoh Kamiyama (Opening theme song artist)

I wrote the opening theme song for the new anime Hori-san to Miyamura-kun. I hope it creates an image in your mind of the beauty of youth. It has been 10 years since the manga first started and it is a great honour to have been invited to share in this wonderful experience. I hope you are all looking forward to the anime.
