Machico: OP theme "Korekara
Congratulations on the anime! Congratulations on the anime adaptation!　Ai-chan's straightforward love for Shogi is dazzling to watch!　The recording of the song has already been finished. Such a dedicated and straightforward feeling is expressed in the lyrics, and I sang the song strongly with core strength. I think the song has become a song that makes you feel positive and energetic, whether you are listening to it or singing it!　I am looking forward to seeing the song played along with the animation again!

■Machico Ito: ED theme "For what I want to protect
I'm Mirai Ito and I'm going to sing the ED theme for the anime "Rio no Oshigoto". When I first heard about it, I was so surprised and happy that I didn't really feel it, but now that I've started working on the music and reading the work, I'm finally starting to feel it!　I want to make a song that will be close to the cute and passionate world of the work. I want to make sure that the music is in line with the cute and passionate world of the work and that everyone will love the ED as much as I can. Thank you very much for your support!
