<Comment from ClariS>
"This is ClariS, and we are honored to perform the opening theme for the TV anime Oni no Hanayome! The alluring beauty of the ayakashi left a strong impression on us, and this is a wonderful work that conveys how precious it is to love and be loved. We are filled with gratitude to be entrusted with its OP theme. Even in the PV currently being shown, the world of Oni no Hanayome comes through delicately, and we can't wait for the broadcast. 'Hitokoto' is a song that carries Yuzu's feelings over an alluring, wistful melody, crafted so you can also enjoy the layering and depth of our three voices through the harmonies and chorus. In our own way, we will stay close to the TV anime Oni no Hanayome and lift up the work with music that explores its warmth and beauty."
<Comment from Ikusaburo Yamazaki>
"I am truly honored to be entrusted with the theme song for the TV anime Oni no Hanayome. I was deeply moved by the strength found within the work's wistfulness and by the beauty of 'loving' someone. The characters' destinies and feelings come through all the more vividly, and I am glad that the song 'Shinboshi' can stay close to the world of this work. I hope it becomes a work that, together with the song, remains deep in the hearts of everyone who watches the anime."
<Comment from original author Kureha>
"We are now three weeks away from the anime's broadcast. When I first heard about the adaptation I thought it was still far off, but time has flown by, and every time I check the calendar I grow nervous with anticipation. Both the OP and ED songs were created to beautifully evoke the Japanese-style fantasy world of Oni no Hanayome from Yuzu's perspective and Reiya's perspective. An advance screening of the first episode has also been decided, and I'm very much looking forward to the day it reaches everyone. Please continue to support Oni no Hanayome."
<Comment from manga artist Jun Togashi>
"At last, the broadcast of the TV anime Oni no Hanayome is about to begin! The OP theme is by ClariS, whose translucent voices and beautiful harmonies color Yuzu's feelings. The ED theme is by Ikusaburo Yamazaki, who gently sings of Reiya's wistful yet devoted love. The fated romance woven by Yuzu and Reiya springs vividly to life through beautiful visuals and music. Please look forward to the TV anime Oni no Hanayome, packed with both fluttering excitement and wistfulness. I'm very happy to be able to greet the broadcast together with all of you."
