The music video for Last Straw by Kuhaku Gokko was posted to YouTube on February 9. The ending theme song for the anime series Platinum End will be officially released on February 16, 2022. Platinum End was based on the manga series written by Tsugumi Ohba and illustrated by Takeshi Obata, the team behind Death Note and Bakuman. The second season began in January 2022 and will come to an exciting conclusion in March! The song Last Straw was inspired by the problem ‘the straw that broke the camel’s back,’ while the music video portrays the struggle between life and death. The music video stars Shino, a young actress attracting attention through her work in movies and social media. Last Straw - Kuhaku Gokko (Music Video）
Comment from Vocalist Setsuko
Last Straw was inspired by themes of life and death, but it was created in a more ambiguous way, emphasizing the balance between the two. We had a lot of conversations about how to express it visually. With Shino as the protagonist, I think the production team was able to create something beautiful–the tension of chasing after shadows, of not knowing whether you are alive or dead.I hope that you can feel the danger of what might happen by applying force as the title Last Straw implies. ©大場つぐみ・小畑健/集英社・プラチナエンド製作委員会Information

Kuhaku Gokko has unveiled the jacket artwork for Last Straw, the ending theme for the anime series Platinum End. The creator also unveiled some bonus artwork, and fans can look forward to snagging the single when it drops on February 16, 2022.
The cover art conveys the theme of ‘life and death’ through sand paintings. The standard features blue sand, while the limited edition has a darker color scheme. The wrapping features the popular character Nasse, and when lined up with the wrapping from the limited edition OP/ED song package, it completes a single image. Kuhaku Gokko, celebrating its second anniversary in 2022, has also released a new artist visual. Setsuko, the vocalist and subject of the new photo, has been steadily growing as an artist since her debut in the internet music scene. Last Straw is now available to stream on major streaming platforms, so give it a listen! ☆Comment from Vocalist Setsuko
The jacket for Last Straw conveys the message and themes of Platinum End. Since the overall theme is life and death, I thought about sand–it never sticks together or intersects no matter how small the particles are. Also, the artist photos were taken with a lot of my demands taken into account.They ended up being delicate, soft, and cool, perfectly summing up Kuhaku Gokko…Enjoy the track!©大場つぐみ・小畑健／集英社・プラチナエンド製作委員会 Information

Platinum End has been a smash hit. Based on the manga series written by Tsugumi Ohba and illustrated by Takeshi Obata, the team behind Death Note and Bakuman, the anime series will see its exciting conclusion in March 2022. Two new characters are being added to the cast before the big finale! Masaya Hoshi will be played by Hiroshi Tsuchida, known for dubbing Lee Byung-hun’s Front Man in Squid Game and Lightning McQueen in Cars. Manami Yumiki will be portrayed by Yui Ishikawa, known as the voice of Mikasa Ackerman in Attack on Titan and Violet Evergarden in Kyoto Animation’s Violet Evergarden.
Comment from Hiroshi Tsuchida (Masaya Hoshi)
"This role is so impressive that I can't stand still while standing at the microphone. I've also noticed that our hairstyle and glasses seem to have become even more similar during recording...I'll try to do my best to change my stupidity into intelligence so I can perform the role of Masaya Hoshi properly." Comment from Yui Ishikawa (Manami Yumiki)
“Although this is a fantasy world, there are so many realistic characters. It makes you feel like this really could be happening somewhere. While reading the original story, I enjoyed it, but I also felt as though I was being questioned about something. The character I play, Yumiki, is a detective at the Metropolitan Police Department. Please look forward to seeing how our new characters interact with the candidates for God!" New episodes of Platinum End begin on January 14, 2022. ©︎大場つぐみ・小畑健／集英社・プラチナエンド製作委員会 -
Based on the manga series written by Tsugumi Ohba and illustrated by Takeshi Obata, the team behind Death Note and Bakuman, the Platinum End anime series has amassed a huge fanbase since premiering in October. A special stage event was held during Jump Festa on December 18, 2021. The 40-minute stage performance was led by Miyu Irino (Mirai Kakehashi), Yui Ogura (Nasse), M.A.O. (Saki Hanakago), Natsuki Hanae (Revell), and Kaito Ishikawa (Kanade Uryu). Each of the actors and actresses share their favorite scenes and were asked some tough questions by the original authors of the series. More of the cast’s question and answer segment will be released on the official Twitter page for the series, along with Tsugumi Ohba’s outlook on life and her most recent movie recommendations! During the program, it was announced that Kuhaku Gokko would perform the second ending theme, Last Straw. The unit debuted in 2019, and is comprised of vocalist Setsuko and composers Harihara Tsubasa and koyori.
Comment from Vocalist Setsuko
“Will the candidates who were meant to die survive, and where will they end up? This is a heavy story, and as it moves towards its conclusion things get even more difficult to fathom. We wrote the song while remembering that this will be the final track fans of the series hear, so we wanted to capture those emotions. In writing the lyrics, I didn’t want to make them too blunt or defined, so each person will have their own interpretation." Platinum End is getting more and more exciting as it hurdles towards the end, so be sure to tune in!©︎大場つぐみ・小畑健／集英社・プラチナエンド製作委員会 Information
