＜Koji Yoshikawa comments

This time I wrote the music and participated in the chorus, and Matsuoka wrote and sang the lyrics.
I wrote the song and participated in the chorus, and Mr. Matsuoka wrote and sang the lyrics, making it a "mature song" that is both subversive and danceable. I hope everyone will enjoy it. Masked Rider is immortal!
Masked Rider is immortal!

Congratulations on the distribution of the Kazato Tantei anime!
I am very happy that "Kazeto Tantei", the legitimate sequel to "Masked Rider W", which continues to be loved by many fans, will be loved even more by many people.
I hope that this work, which has been a major part of my life as well, will continue to shine brightly throughout Japan and the world... forever on the wind.

I was born in 1971, the same year as the Kamen Rider series, and it is my 50th anniversary.
I believe it is my destiny.
I have been looking forward to the day when this offer would come to me ever since the serialization of "Fuuto Tantei" started in a magazine.
13 years since Kamen Rider W
Aya Ueki wTAKUYA will once again bring a whirlwind of music to Kazemachi.
