SEKAI NO OWARI’s new song “Stella” will serve as the opening theme for the series. Renowned both in Japan and internationally for their distinctive worldview and overwhelming live performances, the band created this song especially for the anime, with music composed by Nakajin and lyrics written by Fukase to complement the series’ sweeping world and emotionally stirring story.

Comment from Author:Tomato Soup
When I first heard the completed song, I felt that it was written with deep empathy for the story’s protagonists.
Thrown suddenly into an unfamiliar world, they repeatedly question who they are meant to be. It is like reading the stars while searching for their own coordinates in the vastness—an endless and overwhelming struggle.
This song transforms that struggle into strength, and I believe it will surely become a source of hope for someone else as well. 


As part of the second wave of cast and character announcements, Kenji Nojima will voice Jochi, the first son of Genghis Khan, while Daisuke Namikawa and Hiro Shimono will portray the second and third sons, Chagatai and Ögedei, respectively, bringing the distinct personalities of the imperial princes to life. Ami Koshimizu has also been cast as Töregene, Ögedei’s sixth wife, who harbors deep resentment toward the Mongol Empire and views her husband with hostility due to the scars of her past.
