Comments】 ※Titles omitted
Yukikane Nishizawa

The theme I expressed through the song "Meteor" is "bonding with inorganic objects.
If I were to ride and fight on a robot like the characters in "Jyujin Kiki Pandora"... I imagined that I would love the robot that was my partner. For some reason, I felt a great sadness there, so I decided to write lyrics about it.
I am sure that a bond will develop even with an inorganic thing called a robot. This is a song about a person who believes so. I am looking forward to the moment when the song is fused with the anime, as it is one of the hottest songs in terms of sound!
Meteor" is used as an insert song in the film. Various other songs will also color the world of "Jyujin Kiki Pandora". Please look forward to more information about the theme song in the future!
