KANA-BOON will be helming the OP for the upcoming episodes with a song titled “Star Master.” Band member Maguro Taniguchi, who wrote the song, commented in the magazine that he “wrote this song in the hope of becoming your personal theme song” in a heroic life “that only you paint.” KANA-BOON previously performed “Massara” for Sarazanmai’s opening theme. The CD single for “Star Master” will be released on March 4.

Performing “Shout Baby” will be Ryokuousyoku Syakai, who previously sang the theme for TBS drama You and Me on the G Line “Sabotage.” The singer for the band, Haruko Nagaya, commented on the inclusion of the song in the anime by saying that “no one is a cool hero at the start, but may this song guide you through your journey” to become a cool hero. The single for “Shout Baby” will hit stores on February 19.
