Maaya Sakamoto just released her newest digital single “Tokei”, which has also been chosen as the theme song for the final chapter of popular mobile RPG Fate/Grand Order. The multi-talented singer, voice actress, actress, songwriter and essayist released her 30th anniversary album M30~Your Best~ in October 2025.
“Tokei” is the sixth track in the Fate/Grand Order series, following “Shikisai”, “Gyakko”, “Kuuhaku”, “Yakudo” and “Dokuhaku”. Maaya Sakamoto wrote the lyrics herself and composed the theme song for the conclusion of the series she has been a part of for ten years.
The theme song is an emotional track depicting “hope for the future”, setting it apart from previous theme songs from the FGO series. Ryo Eguchi arranged the song, a member of la la larks who helped compose and arrange “Shikisai” and the arrangement for “Gyakko”.
The result is a richly-layered track that is fitting for the final chapter of the FGO series, created by a team who know the series by heart.
The music video for “Tokei” premiered December 29.
