YOASOBI recently dropped the music video for their latest song, “Monotone,” which is the theme for the upcoming anime movie Fureru. The song was released as a digital single on October 1, 2024, just ahead of the movie’s release in Japan on October 4. The story behind Fureru is based on a novel titled Fureru no, Zenya written by Mari Okada, who also wrote the movie’s screenplay.
“Monotone” is a meaningful track for YOASOBI as it’s their first time creating a theme song for an anime film. They expressed that the song reflects their thoughts about human relationships, loneliness, and the fondness one feels for others. These themes connect closely with the film, which explores the complex relationships between childhood friends and a mysterious creature called Fureru.
The music video is unique because it features new animation created by the same team behind the movie. The video gives fans a deeper look at the world of Fureru, showing scenes that expand on the story of the movie’s main characters.
If you’re excited about Fureru, this music video is a great way to get a sneak peek of its atmosphere, blending beautiful animation with YOASOBI’s emotional pop sound.
