This was actually going to be a song blog for last season but I had no idea when the full song would be released and I couldn’t wait too long. I don’t really want to do a song blog for it anymore as I lost some of my initial enthusiasm, but I still like it. The full version only just came out and I feel compelled to give it some mention, so I decided this would be my SOTW for this week. Logical, nay? I must’ve mentioned it as well and here it is finally, ending for Shinsekai Yori, Wareta Ringo by Taneda Risa. Also because I had planned this for a proper song blog I feel obliged to post the lyrics as well. So I’ve put them up below the video, enjoy.

I must say, this song only caught my attention purely because I thought my speakers had broken when the first few seconds played. I wouldn’t be surprised if a few of you also thought that too, a very odd intro into the song but worked to get people’s attention. Also might be just me, but the song seems to sing about loneliness, after reading through it, I feel an empty feeling. Being alone but still fighting on. No idea if that relates to the anime as I didn’t watch it, but it’s interesting. Also if you’re interested, I think this song also relates to a Japanese nursery rhyme named Shabondama, which means Soap Bubbles. Yeah weird, but probably why I like it.
