The Oral Cigarettes to perform "Hell Teacher Nūbē" opening theme, Ayumu Imazu for ending theme
The opening theme for the second cour of the TV anime "Hell Teacher Nūbē," airing from January 7, has been announced as THE ORAL CIGARETTES' new song "ERASE," and the ending theme will be Ayumu Imazu's new song "MAGICAL."
The anime is based on the occult manga of the same name, which was serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump" from 1993 to 1999. It depicts the spiritualist teacher Meisuke Nueno, nicknamed "Nūbē," who has a demon hand, as he risks his life to protect his students from the threat of yokai and evil spirits.
Regarding the announcement, Takuya Yamanaka (Vo, G) of THE ORAL CIGARETTES commented, "I am truly honored to have been able to create the theme song for 'Hell Teacher Nūbē,' which I have been watching since I was a child. The world of 'Hell Teacher Nūbē' has much in common with the world of THE ORAL CIGARETTES, so I was able to approach the song straightforwardly. Just as Nūbē saves his students from the darkness, I believe music exists for the darkness that you cannot escape from on your own. I've put that feeling into the song, so please enjoy it along with the series!" Ayumu Imazu stated, "I am truly honored to have been able to write the ending theme! With a popular Heisei-era work making its return in the Reiwa era, I've created 'MAGICAL' to be a song with a sense of nostalgia and familiarity, like city pop!"
