Happonashi

Artist

HAPPONASHI is a band who performed 'Love&Pain,' the ending theme of the TV anime 'Rune Soldier (Mahou Senshi Louie).' With lyrics and music by SIN and arrangement by Masao Akashi, the song closes this sword-and-sorcery comedy with a sentimental melody and rock-flavored sound. In contrast to the up-tempo opening 'Twinkle Trick,' its more pensive vocal and lingering atmosphere pair well with the ending visuals of the series, leaving a memorable impression. The band is remembered for handing the closing theme of one of the WOWOW-broadcast fantasy anime of the early 2000s.
