While earlier reports suggested Senri Oe’s Glory Days would serve as the opening theme, it has been clarified that the track is actually one of the featured theme songs within the production.

The series follows the story of a shy high school boy named Nakamura who has fallen in love at first sight with his classmate Hirose despite the two never having spoken.

To celebrate the new trailer, original creator Syundei released a special illustration of the musical performers alongside the single’s official cover art.
