the last day of my adolescence is the opening theme song for the Suruga Devil story featured in the Hanamonogatari anime series. It was written by meg rock, arranged and composed by mito, and performed by Miyuki Sawashiro, the voice actor for Suruga Kanbaru.
Background[]
The song tells of the singer's struggle towards her goal while bound a past that haunts her. Eventually, the song depicts the singer's sole efforts to move on from the past, while deciding to be oneself and not become like others.
Opening Sequence[]
The opening sequence for the Hanamonogatari anime series shows an alternate retelling of the development of the relationship between Suruga Kanbaru and Rouka Numachi. In this retelling, Suruga and Rouka are shown as friends turned into lovers when Rouka confessed her feelings for Suruga through a kiss, but their relationship immediately broke down after Rouka was injured. Suruga eventually confronts Rouka in a one-on-one basketball match. The sequence shares the same lily motif as in Ambivalent World.

Japanese[]
胸に閊えてる
これは なんだろう
叶ってくほど
大きくなってく
自由という名の
不自由の中で
半分だけ
昨日のまま
こんがらがった答に がんじがらめ からめとられるように 巻き込まれ
正しくて 間違った 可能性 すべてに 想いを馳せ 立ち竦む
君のいない
散らかった 世界
埋もれてた きもち
心が叫ぶ場所へ
ひとり 走ってく
まとわりついた 言葉
断ち切って
誰よりも 今
私らしく
覚悟を決めて
手を伸ばして
飛び越えられない
ハードルだったら
神様もね
きっと 与えない
すぐに 忘れては
また 思い出して
一歩づつでも
近づきたい
らしくないけど らしくもある 表裏一体 角度次第
単純で 複雑な 素直すぎる 矛盾を孕んだ 自分の定義
優しくて
曖昧な日々に
さよならを告げる
心が叫ぶ場所へ
ひとり 走ってく
ほどけてしまう 涙
蹴飛ばして
誰よりも 今
私らしく
覚悟を決めて
手を伸ばして
心が叫ぶ場所へ
ひとり 走ってく
まとわりついた 言葉
断ち切って
全力で
心が叫ぶ場所へ
ひとり 走ってく
ほどけてしまう 涙
蹴飛ばして
誰よりも 今
私らしく
覚悟を決めて
手を伸ばして

Unlike me and yet like me The same coin looks different from different angles |
