amagami-ss-op2

Amagami’s new OP like the first is extremely catchy. Between the words that evoke the winter season, the reciprocal love that moves from the past into the future and the ability to be oneself around one’s lover, the song produces a really wonderful image.

[Lyrics] Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai OP – irony [ClariS]

oreimo-op

[Lyrics] To Heart 2 ad ED – Kimi ga Nokoshita Mono [Uehara Rena]

Here’s the latest song for my To Heart 2 mini project. This time it is the ending for ad and ad plus. In English the title translates into What You Left Behind. Unlike the OP the two TV-size versions use the same few verses. Unfortunately this will be the last To Heart song for the …
