Kairiki Bear, a Vocaloid producer known for songs such as Venom and Darling Dance, has launched a new project called Retbear.
Retbear is an “anonymous” unit that combines Kairiki Bear with a different unknown vocalist for each song. The guest vocalist performs under a different name from usual.
Scheduled for a digital release on July 10th, the unit's debut song will be titled Atamannaka DEAD END, and it will feature guest vocals from an unknown vocalist called 10fu. The song will be the opening theme of the anime series "Black
Summoner", and a preview of the track was recently revealed in its second official trailer.
"Black Summoner" will be broadcast from July 2022 in Japan, and it is an adaptation of an isekai series about a battle junkie. It was also announced that the ending theme will be sung by Minori Suzuki, who plays the role of Sera in the anime.
Retbear commented:
"There are various isekai anime where protagonists are reincarnated in other worlds, and perhaps this world of ours is also a place where we were reincarnated without memories of our previous lives…
I composed this song by overlaying images of our current reality, the other world, and the feelings of the characters. I hope you enjoy both the anime and the song!"
The second trailer for "Black Summoner", which features clips of both Minori Suzuki's
Wherever and Retbear's
Atamannaka DEAD END, can be viewed below.
