Kitani Tatsuya Releases Music Video for Kore wa Shine Opening Song Isho

Kitani Tatsuya released the music video for his new song Isho on August 12. The track is the opening theme for the TV anime Kore wa Shine, based on the manga that won the Manga Taisho 2023 grand prize and the 70th Shogakukan Manga Award. Actress and model Yoshida Mizuki appears in the video, playing a girl driven by creative impulse.

The music video for Kitani Tatsuya's Isho, the opening theme for the TV anime Kore wa Shine, went live on August 12 at 9 p.m. Actor and model Yoshida Mizuki, known for voicing Kyomoto in the film Look Back, plays a girl whose vivid imagination spawns countless balloons that grow into a giant presence, capturing the joy and anguish of creation.

Kitani's singing segments layer visuals to show the creator's inner conflict, intersecting with the girl's story. He described the song as a cry of I am here, and said creation is a will that keeps updating through overwrite saves while one lives. The anime airs Fridays at 11:30 p.m. on Nippon TV's Furaani block across 30 stations.
