OP artist: Nana Mizuki's comment
The main character Tomokazu's insight, precise calculations, and out-of-the-ordinary actions, which he does not choose any means to win, keep your heart rate up every time you turn the page!
I incorporated this tension and the way I was swept away into the music!
The song is full of humor that was only possible because I was able to encounter this work, so please look forward to it!

Comment from ED artist: saji
Takumi Yoshida (Vo. & Gt.)
When I was a child,
When I was a child, I vaguely wondered what it was to live.
Now that I am an adult,
I wonder what I am living for.
What is life?
Let's think about it together
Let's welcome tomorrow.
Please don't lose sight of yourself.

Shinya Yutani (Gt.)
Thank you for using our song for the ending of the TV anime "Tomodachi Game"!
We can't wait for the broadcast date very much!
We hope you will listen to our song along with the anime!

Yoshimitsu Yamazaki (Ba.)
Friends and Money
Both of them are close to us, but we don't have a chance to weigh them. I'm excited that we will rediscover both friend and money as we watch the anime, and that new values will be born!
