Comments from KOHTA YAMAMOTO:
I am honored to be responsible for the opening theme music for the anime television series “The Strongest Magician of the Demon” The army is people.” It was truly a privilege to be part of the soundtrack! I’m so excited to hear ‘Ctrl C’ in the anime after watching the powerful PV! This song also marks the first release of my vocal project. I created ‘Ctrl C’ for the purpose of expressing my own music while imagining Ike’s strength and calm demeanor. I collaborated with Shun Ikegai on lyrics and vocals. Ikegai’s uniquely sensual voice and lyrics reflect the world of this work that fits perfectly with this rock track. I had the pleasure of working with Ikegai on the first song of this vocal project. I hope many people will listen to ‘Ctrl C’ along with the anime!
Shun Ikegai’s comments:
Thank you for this opportunity. I received this offer at a time when I was experiencing feelings of alienation and anxiety through music. As the lyrics suggest, even if you see what’s happening in society from the window, there are still times when you feel lethargic. However, there is no way to go against reincarnation, fate or the flow of time, so you end up wondering what to do. How do you deal with situations that arise without a choice? I think that’s the universality of this work. For me, who cannot be positive about spreading messages into the human forest, this cooperation brought me a challenge. Thank you KOHTA-san. What can I say at the end of my repetition?
Official anime synopsis:
Ike is known as “”the strongest magician in the demon king’s army”” and the one who single-handedly conquered fortresses. The way he takes down enemies with his immense magic is truly a “monster” that terrifies both allies and enemies. However, he has a secret that he cannot tell the other demons. “”–I am truly human.”” Aiming for coexistence between demons and humans while the leader of the demon army is hiding the fact that he is actually a human!?
