There’s absolutely no doubt that Haikyu!! is one of the biggest reasons we’re still able to continue as a band today.
The song that came out of that opportunity, “Orange,” has been streamed more than any of our previous songs around the world.
I truly believe that our connection with Haikyu!! is one of the reasons we’re now able to perform live all over the world.
