The office is called RX-RECORDS, but the reason why it got that name is that our manager really likes Gundam. So when he made his debut, he said, Someday, you guys, Gundam's theme song or Thailand. I remember being told, Let's bring it up. I think my dream has finally come true. I was able to give back to the manager. (Mr. Kawakami) (Listen to the live) It's amazing. The song Senkou matches Hathaway's worried but rushing feelings, and every time I listen to it, I get a bird's-eye view. (Mr. Ono)
