Fate/Apocrypha" OP theme, EGOIST's "Hero: Poem of Destiny" will be distributed in full!

EGOIST's "Hero: Poem of Destiny," the OP theme of the summer anime "Fate/Apocrypha," will be distributed in full on July 16 (Sun.), a month before the CD goes on sale.



Fate/Apocrypha" is a five-volume novel by Yuichiro Higashide. The Yugdmillenian clan, which holds up the Holy Grail stolen from the city of Fuyuki as its symbol during the chaos of World War II, declares its independence from the Magical Society. The angry Sorcerous Society sends assassins to the family, but they are defeated by the Servant summoned by the Yugdmillenia clan. However, the system of the Holy Grail War is changed by the surviving assassins, and the Magical Society is able to summon Servants. Thus, the curtain rises on the "Holy Grail War," a war on an unprecedented scale of seven against seven.

The latest single "Hideo: The Poem of Destiny" to be released on August 16 (Wed.) will be the opening theme song for the TV anime "Fate/Apocrypha" which will start airing on July 1 (Sat.), and it has become a hot topic. The song will be distributed in full on July 16 (Sun.), a month ahead of the CD's release.


Fans who have seen the new anime PV that was released recently have commented, "EGOIST's new song is still a god song! I can't wait to hear it in full! I got goosebumps the moment EGOIST's song started playing! The song has been the talk of the town, and both EGOIST and anime fans have voiced their delight and surprise at the super-priority distribution of the song.


In addition, from July 16 (Sun.) to July 30 (Sun.), those who purchase the full soundtrack of "Hideo: The Poem of Destiny" on recochoku, mora, doangojp, and animelo mix will receive by lottery the latest illustration of "Hideo: The Poem of Destiny" drawn by redjuice and the illustration of the anime jacket by character designer, Ototsugu Konoe. The winner will receive a double-sided B1 poster of the latest "Poem of Hero's Destiny" illustration by redjuice and the anime jacket illustration by the character designer, Ototsugu Konoe.


The CD to be released on August 16 (Wed.) will also feature a special package deal. We can't wait for the announcement of this as well.

The producer, ryo (supercell), has also made the following comment, which raises expectations for the full distribution of the song.

Comments】 ※Honorific titles omitted
■EGOIST Producer: ryo (supercell)
This is my first entry in the Fate series! So I was given the opportunity to write a song for it.
EGOIST's motto is to create arrangements and sounds that no one has ever done before, and this time we followed our instincts in arranging the music, and as a result, the number of players we invited for the recording was half the number of players we had. It is just like the number of characters in Fate.
And each of the players is strong in their own way, and that is the memory of the recording process.
I hope you look forward to the release. Best regards."
