TV anime "Tengoku Daimakyo" will start airing on April 1, 2023 (Sat) on TOKYO MX, MBS and other stations. The OP theme is "innocent arrogance," a newly written song by BiSH, and the ED theme is "Nobody knows him, nowhere knows anything," a newly written song by ASOBI Alliance.

In the video, Maru (CV. Motoi Sato) and Kirko (CV. Ayaka Sengenki) are on a journey to "search for heaven" in an abandoned Japan, and Tokio (CV. Motoi Sato), who lives in a beautiful world inside the wall and thinks about "what's out there, out there", is also featured in the video. The two parallel worlds are connected. The story stirs the imagination as to how these two parallel worlds will be connected.

Many important scenes that hold the key to the story are also interspersed throughout the film.

Artist Comment]
■Cent Chihiro Chichi (BiSH)
Boys and girls fighting for "Heaven".
We, who live in the present, are living in the same fast-changing Japan, searching for the light.
We have no choice but to go on, making choices that come to us again and again, even if we are battered and bruised.
I was surprised to find myself absorbed in reading the manga, shedding tears as I thought about it and couldn't stop reading.
I am very, very honored to be able to deliver BiSH's music at this memorable time when Tengoku Daimakyo is being made into an anime.
With all my heart, please accept my best regards.

■Hashiyasume Atsuko (BiSH)
I understood as the story progressed. The foreshadowing was great! I was surprised at the way the story was foreshadowed! I was surprised by the meaning of those words....
When I realized the meaning, I felt love for the characters, and I found myself rereading the story over and over again to clear my head.
The genre is science fiction, but with the appearance of AI, it feels like the not-so-distant future, which is kind of strange.
Thank you for choosing BiSH as your partner for the beginning of this important journey, the decision to make an anime!
Since two worlds are depicted at the same time, how will the story progress in the future?
How will the story progress and where will they intersect? Is my theory correct? I will be watching the movie with a lot of thoughts.

ASOBI Alliance
This is the ASOBI Alliance!
Rimmy, who loves manga, and Tokumikusu, who loves anime, are going to sing the ending theme for the first time in an anime!
It still feels like a dream come true for us to be involved in a world we love so much.
And I am very, very happy to be able to report such a wonderful news to you all.
Through "Tengoku Daimakyo", I would like to "ASOBI" a lot with Maru, Kirko, and everyone.
