Omoinotake (オモイノタケ) is a Japanese band formed in 2012 in Matsue, Chūgoku, Japan,[1][unreliable source] by vocalist/keyboardist Fujii Reo, bassist Fukushima Tomoaki, and drummer Tomita Hironoshin. They are perhaps best known for their songs "Everblue", used as the opening theme for the anime Blue Period,[2] and "Ikuokukonen", which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100.[3]
History[edit]
Omoinotake was formed in 2012 by Fujii Reo, Fukushima Tomoaki, and Tomita Hironoshin in Matsue, Japan. After performing locally around Shibuya for several years, the band released their debut album, So far, in 2017 on the independent label Neon Records.[4]
In 2020, Omoinotake performed the opening theme song "Ubugoe (産声)" for the television series adaptation of Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?!.[5] The band also provided the theme song "Heartbeat" (心音, Shinon) for the film sequel to the series in 2022.[6]
After signing to Sony Music in 2021,[citation needed] they released their debut major label album, Ammolite, in September 2023. It contained their previously released singles "Everblue", the opening theme for the anime adaption of the manga Blue Period, and "Happiness" (幸せ, Shiawase), the opening theme for the anime Horimiya: The Missing Pieces.[7][8]
In 2024, the band released the single "Billions of Light Years" (or "Ikuokukonen"), used for the TV show Eye Love You. According to Fukushima, the song was originally going to be named "Thousands of Light Years", but the band decided against it after considering that one billion light years was more of an unimaginable distance.[9] The song has since peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100,[3] giving Omoinotake their highest charting single.[citation needed] In April 2024, it was announced that Omoinotake would perform the ending theme song "Tsubomi" (蕾) for the seventh season of the anime My Hero Academia.[10]
