LMYK was greatly selected as the ending theme of the TV anime “The Case Study of Vanitas (Vanitas no Carte)”, and this new song “0 (zero)” was ranked high not only in Japan but also in Taiwan and Canada. The music video that was recently released on YouTube, in which she appeared for the first time, has also received many enthusiastic comments from overseas. In response to these positive responses, a new music video of “0 (zero)” featuring illustrations from the anime “The Case Study of Vanitas (Vanitas no Carte)” has been released.

The TV anime “The Case Study of Vanitas (Vanitas no Carte)” is based on the latest work by Jun Mochizuki, the author of the popular manga “Pandora Hearts” which has sold over 5.5 million copies. And it is currently on air. It is produced by BONES, a company famous for producing high-quality anime such as “Fullmetal Alchemist” and “Psalms of Planets Eureka Seven”, and has been getting a lot of attention overseas. LMYK produced both Japanese and English versions of the song for this anime. For the overseas distribution of the anime, a new attempt has been made to use the English version of the song in English-speaking regions. It is an elegant and gothic soundscape that beautifully adorns the steampunk world of 19th century Paris. The newly released music video for the anime version of “0 (zero)” is also based on the English lyrics, and the images from the TV anime are exquisitely edited to match the music and the world of the anime, making it an enjoyable experience for both music and anime fans. Her new song is also produced by Jimmy jam & Terry Lewis, one of the world’s leading producer teams. LMYK’s signature whispering voice is used as orchestration, and their production work visualizes the sound as if it were a garden in bloom.
