I thought the same when I read the title. This song to be red rose with actual lyrics lmao

But I’m sure it will a fanfare-like song to close the concerts…

Hoping for the best (for me), expecting another sharp keychange ridden FBM&stringsfest.

At least it's not a fanclub exclusive like sing a song.

Also, maybe wishful thinking but hope EMIKO is in the lead 'cause who knows when we get anything with her otherwise. (*grunty cries in shuri*)

Last dark song by Kajiura was the one sung by the 2 dudes for Kimetsu so its not so long ago.

That was not just a dark song for darkness sake, but it was a character song for a malevolent personality.

I feel Kajiura has been trained by her experiences to write much of her best music when she's writing for a character or story theme. Most of the time.

^ i think so too. But imho that kimetsu song was boring and forgetable.

I liked it for the vocal performances, and the fact it was a main villain character song for an anime I have been invested in.

Yes. I know it wasn't a BG theme, but I believe it was inspired by Muzan's character and the plot at the end of season 4.
