Among the lineup was STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION, who not only performed but also debuted the event's theme song. September 20 marked the digital debut of that theme song, titled”HIKARI”. Created specifically for the HIKARI Festival, this track represents STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION's belief that”music connects people around the world”. The song combines sounds and choral elements of both Polish and Japanese origin, meticulously crafted into a harmonious work. The result is an anthem where anime and music enthusiasts across borders come together to create a unified chorus. Additionally, STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION is excited to announce the upcoming release of the STEREO DIVE 03 digital album this fall. The album will not only feature “HIKARI” but also many theme songs for popular TV anime such as That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, SYNDUALITY Noir and Sengoku Youko.

Comment From RON
“Even when we're apart, we're still connected”—that's something that never changes, no matter the times. I hope you will pay attention to the simple, uncomplicated lyrics and listen to it.
Comments from the HIKARI Festival Organizing Committee
We are delighted that RON has composed the theme song for the Hikari Festival. It shows the bright and cheerful character of our event. We created the Festival with the idea of “fan to fan” and this song embodies that in both production and performance. In a unique experience, fans can participate in the production by recording their voices to be used in the piece. And then, during the SDF concert in Poland, we all sang the chorus together, which allowed everyone to be a part of the performance. Thank you for composing this song for us!
