KANIKAPILA

Artist

KANIKAPILA is a Japanese girls' rock band originally formed by childhood friends from Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture. They debuted as a seven-member group of high schoolers with an average age of 15, making their major-label debut in February 2015. Five of the seven members rotate as lead vocalists, giving the band a distinctive pop-rock sound. Their representative anime tie-up is 'Trouble Maker,' an ending theme for 'NARUTO Shippuden,' a message song built around friendship and the spirit of never giving up. Lyrics are by Kumiko Takahashi, composition by Gouki Otsuka, and arrangement by Satori Shiraishi.
