In response to this announcement, we have received a comment from Ms. Hanazawa, which we encourage you to check out.

Kana Hanazawa's comment

I am pleased to announce that I will be transferring to Pony Canyon from ANIPLEX and SACRA MUSIC, with whom I have worked for almost 9 years.

This is a positive reason for me to actively deliver music for a long time to come. We are very happy to be able to take on this new challenge with the staff we usually work with on animated films in a safe and secure environment.

While the Corona disaster has put a stop to our live performances and we are frustrated at not being able to see everyone who has been supporting us, we have been working hard with our music producer, Katsutoshi Kitagawa, to create songs. We have created many wonderful songs, and I hope everyone will listen to them soon.

The first single "Moonlight Magic" was composed by Mr. Katsutoshi Kitagawa and written by me.

We put our all into this sparkling song reminiscent of "Hoshizora Destination," which has become more powerful over the past nine years. In the lyrics, I express my wish that people cherish the time when they feel happy because of the cramped world we live in.

First of all, I look forward to this song reaching everyone and to seeing you again in that happy space at the live performance.

Thank you for your continued support!"
