We were told that a sequel to "Blue Exorcist" was going to be produced
At that time, he mentioned us, UVERworld, again.
We were asked to work together again on this project.

This is the third time since the first time we were asked to work together.
We have worked together on two songs so far, and our music has evolved along with the growth of the main characters.


Our music has also evolved along with the growth of the main characters,

We hope you will enjoy the new songs of UVERworld along with the anime.


Rin Akatsuki
I am very honored to be in charge of the ending theme for "Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Jouou-ou-hen".
I have been a big fan of "Blue Exorcist" for a long time, and even after the show has finished airing, I still watch the anime and event DVDs over and over again.
I sometimes draw moles in the likeness of Yukio....
I love the song "Konote de" and I think it fits the world of the work very well.
I sang the song with an awareness of my strong will to fight against the world while being conflicted, and I hope everyone can relate to it.
I hope you can relate to it.
