(“For my memorable 10th album, I was really eager to sing a song from mister Yabuki (Toshiro). It has a very thick minor-up you can’t guess from the title, a real Yabuki Toshiro explosion!! Because I intensely use my inner muscles, I always become drenched in sweat each time I sing it, haha. Just like ‘Power Gate’, which was written with the image of me in the first half of my twenties, it’s a very front-facing song that was written with the image of the present me who experienced various joys and pains and became an adult.” – Mizuki Nana, Seiyuu Animedia May 2014)

14. Bokura no Mirai
Nothing will change with wishing to return to the time we’ve met
and being depressed
It’s not like me, I don’t want to compromise,
I guess it’s not easy to cross paths without meeting
If I could face everything, wouldn’t there be something missing?
Bewildered by repeating the same cheap regrets,
you are there
Acutely putting on airs, flapping your wings and only making merry
The important things become clear
Let’s meet again in a beautiful future after our strength fades
Let’s both take off, letting go of each other’s hands
In the extreme days when my breath seemed to be blocked,
even the dazzling seasons were ruthlessly washed away
Where are you heading so persistently?
My eyes are faraway, they only see the past
I try to let go a bit, so that it won’t be too late
Even if I only overdo it and chase after what’s in front of me,
I won’t be able to bear it
I’m overcoming it, casually, and with strong patience
Stealing it is not the only way
Let’s surrender while smiling, with the courage to escape
Let’s throw away the necessary luggage without hesitation
How long are you going to be crying?
Our feelings should have been the same since then
Acutely putting on airs, flapping your wings and only making merry
The important things become clear
Let’s try to feel the warmth of time
Even if it stops, I don’t care
Let’s meet again in a beautiful future after our strength fades
Let’s both strongly take off, letting go of each other’s hands, to a different town
