Kiyoe Yoshioka, who is the vocalist of Ikimonogakari, is going to singing the opening theme song for the TV animation series, “A Couple of Cuckoos,” airing on TV Asahi from April in 2022.
She sings the opening theme song for the TV anime as a solo act for the first time.
“A Couple of Cuckoos” is a manga series telling a love story which started from the incident that babies switched at birth, written and illustrated by Miki Yoshikawa, who also created “Flunk Punk Rumble,” and “Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches”.
When the first comic book in this manga series was published on the 15th of May 2020 by Kodansha, it quickly sold out in every book shop. This is an extremely popular manga series which required 10 editions in the shortest amount of time in the history of the publisher Kodansha.
It has been announced that the manga is going to be adapted into a TV animation airing from April 2022, and the opening theme song will be Kiyoe Yoshioka’s ‘Dekoboko’.
This new song ‘Dekoboko’ is created by Haruko Nagaya from the band Ryokuoushoku Shakai. Haruko Nagaya is very close to Kiyoe Yoshioka both as friends and also in business as they are often on TV programs together.
This song has an authentic pop sound with a very charming feeling. It blends with the world of the anime “A Couple of Cuckoos” to show many different exciting feelings.
The song ‘Dekoboko’ will be available for streaming and download on various music platforms from Sunday the 17th of April 2022.
