Up and coming singer Rei Nakashima, winner of the InuCon! 2022 grand prix, will be releasing her highly anticipated third single “Okirakuze~shon” February 18, 2026! The song was produced by Hyadain (Kenichi Maeyamada) and chosen as the opening theme song for TV anime Easygoing Territory Defense by the Optimistic Lord.

Written by renowned hit-maker Kenichi Maeyamada, “Okirakuze~shon” is a lively track that deviates from Rei Nakashima’s previous image. Rei Nakashima’s laid-back style and the fun-filled atmosphere of the track result in a relaxed and easygoing pop song. Its upbeat, cheery melody and Nakashima’s silky smooth vocals pair perfectly with the feel of the anime and will invite listeners to sit back and take a load off. A portion of the track was sampled in the latest promotional video for Easygoing Territory Defense by the Optimistic Lord that was released on October 19.

Rei Nakashima’s “Moshimo,” the theme song for her weekly Sunday night radio show “Kyou mo Hanamaru!” will be recorded on both the first editions and standard editions of the single as the coupling track. “Moshimo” was produced by Nakashima herself and remains her most popular track among fans. The first edition of the single will also include “Otona Atsukai,” an exclusive track that’s never been recorded on CD. It was written by Nakashima when she was in high school and produced in commemoration of her 20th birthday last year for online streaming. More track information will be released at a later date.
