I have slacked off on this yesterday so I will be doing two in a row for today!

Day 5: Favorite Afterglow Song

Here it goes....

Gozen niji fumikiri ni bouenkyou wo katsuidetta

Beruto ni musunda rajio ame wa furanai rashii

Nifungo ni kimi ga kita oogesa na nimotsu shotte kita

Hajimeyou ka 天体観測 houkiboshi wo sagashite

Fukai yami ni nomarenai you ni seiippai datta

Kimi no furueru te wo nigirou to shita ano hi wa

MIENAI MONO WO MIYOU TO SHITE BOUENKYOU WO NOZOKIKONDA

SEIJAKU WO KIRISAITE IKUTSUMO KOE GA UMARETA YO

ASHITA GA BOKURA WO YONDATTE HENJI MO ROKU NI SHINAKATTA

IMA TO IU HOUKIBOSHI KIMI TO FUTARI OIKAKETE ITA

...

Did I make people flee from this post?

Fuee...

But yeah I love this song far too much. I love it as much as KasuRan.

Though that is probably bc this is the KasuRan anthem.

Tentai Kansoku

No song link because Bushiroad and CraftEgg are cowards and refuse to give us a full version fuee...

I love this song. I love it a lot and I don't think words are enough to express my love for it.

I know that this is a collaboration cover between Kasumi and Afterglow but it is still an Afterglow song nonetheless. And it is probably the one I prefer the most.

I love it for several reasons, but a big reason is that it is arguably the first proper duet song in Bandori (this song was before Romeo). It is also the only duet between vocalists (Ran and Kasumi) so far. It is a very unique song in its regards and can I say that Kasumi and Ran's vocals fit so well with each other? They sound so perfect throughout the whole song that I can't help but try and pick this song whenever I could outside and during event periods.

Another big reason is because of how it fits the event when it was released: Searching for Stars. It is arguably one of my favorite events Story-wise because of how wholesome it is and how Kasumi it is for our dear Star Kitty to just drag Ran and Tsugu along because she would feel lonely. The event also shows Hina's fixation with the stars, being the sole member of Haneoka's Astronomy Club and made an alliance with Hanajo's s sole Astronomy Club member Kokoro.

And in regards to this being the KasuRan Anthem, the lyrics are all about two people wanting to stargaze together and cuddle. At least that's how I perceive the lyrics.

It's a bit of a shame that it didn't get a full version (yet) but I am glad that there are those who agree with me that this is one of the best songs in Bandori. I felt so happy when I watched the Banpa Cover Rankings on Youtube and saw this place decently high. I even heard similar cries from those in EN to release a full version.

While I do hope for a full version of this song, I also wish for a proper follow-up on Searching for Stars, maybe one with Sayo involved as well thanks to a certain recent event. A man could dream.
