[edit] Overview

High and Mighty Color's eighth single found the band singing "Enrai ~Tooku ni Aru Akari~" as the ending theme song for "Mobile Suit GUNDAM SEED DESTINY SPECIAL EDITION".[1] The song "Kaerimichi no Orenji (Orange of the Return Trip)" was used in the Bleach Wii commercial.[2] First pressings of the single came with a special pin-up featuring Gundam character Athrun Zala.

Sample of the translated lyrics:

We cease to be connected by dazzling chance meetings, I won't leave you again
Here, we drew our fingertips, which once touched, back toward ourselves
Your overly radiant form, and small whisper
Seem to connect us together and heal us, who are tangled together...
Because I won't pretend to give up[3]
