Special comment from Ayase

I’m excited to have the opportunity to provide a song titled “From Now!” for this collaboration. Monster Hunter was the game that got me into gaming, and it was the first game I truly got hooked on. When creating the song, I wanted to show my deep appreciation for the series so I packed it full of Monster Hunter vibes in the lyrics and included elements of the game that I personally found exciting. The Monster Hunter series always introduces new game systems with each release, creating excitement for both longtime fans and newcomers alike. This ever-evolving sense of fun has influenced my own approach to making music, inspiring me to create something that people can enjoy without getting bored. I hope listeners feel a sense of surprise, excitement, and that “What is this song? I’ve never heard anything like this before!” kind of thrill.
