Are you a fan of the hit anime series Oshi no Ko? If so, you're in for a treat! QUEEN BEE, a fantastic Japanese rock band, has recently released their latest CD single, "Mephisto," which serves as the ending theme for the Oshi no Ko anime. Let's talk about the music video's premiere, explore the band's unique style, and uncover the connection between QUEEN BEE and the manga world of Oshi no Ko.

QUEEN BEE: Rocking the Music Scene:


QUEEN BEE, comprised of AVU (Voice), YASHI (Bass), RURI (Drums), and HIBARI (Guitar), first formed in Kobe back in 2009. Over the years, they have gained popularity with their distinctive blend of rock music. Their ninth CD single, "Mephisto," was released in Japan on May 17, 2023, adding another hit to their impressive repertoire.

The Mesmerizing "Mephisto" Music Video:


Directed by Sayaka Nakane, the music video for "Mephisto" showcases the band's collaboration with Oshi no Ko's team. Sayaka Nakane has been instrumental in creating all of QUEEN BEE's music videos since their third single, "HALF," released in 2018. This collaboration has yielded stunning visuals that bring the idol "Avu-chi" to life.

Enter Karin Ono: Bringing Shiori Shindo to the Screen:


In the "Mephisto" music video, Karin Ono, the talented actress who won the Best New Actor Award at the 46th Japan Academy Prize for her role in Haken Anime!, portrays the character Shiori Shindo, the idol manager. Ono's remarkable performance adds depth and intrigue to the video, making it a must-watch for fans of both QUEEN BEE and Oshi no Ko.

The Captivating Sound of "Mephisto":


One of QUEEN BEE's signature qualities is their ability to seamlessly blend low and high-pitched vocals. "Mephisto" showcases their unique main vocal style, further enhancing the band's musical identity. However, be cautious when listening at full volume, as the intentional increase in sound level aims to replicate the atmosphere of a live performance.

Oshi no Ko Anime and the Unprecedented Success:


Premiering in Japan on April 12, the Oshi no Ko anime captured the hearts of fans worldwide with its 90-minute first episode. The anime is based on the manga series of the same name, written by Aka Akasaka and illustrated by Mengo Yokoyari. It has gained immense popularity and has become HIDIVE's "#1 series launch in the streamer's history."

The Perfect Synchronization of Music and Manga:


The collaboration between QUEEN BEE and Oshi no Ko is a match made in heaven. While YOASOBI's opening theme has reached over 100 million streams(source), QUEEN BEE's "Mephisto" has made waves with its powerful ending theme. The convergence of exceptional music and captivating storytelling through manga has elevated the Oshi no Ko anime experience to new heights.


QUEEN BEE's "Mephisto" adds a thrilling musical dimension to the already mesmerizing world of Oshi no Ko. With their signature style, unique vocals, and collaboration with Oshi no Ko

By
  Are you planning an international trip? Exciting! But before you go, it’s important to remember that not all countries use the same electrical outlet plugs.
