Article

For the first time, both of Daiki Tsuneta's projects are scoring the same anime.

The New Opening Theme

King Gnu released "GO GHOST," the opening theme for the new TV anime THE GHOST IN THE SHELL, on July 30, 2026.

A First-Ever Crossover

King Gnu leader Daiki Tsuneta's other project, millennium parade, provided the same anime's ending theme, "Blue" — the first time both projects have scored the same series.

What To Know

Having both of Daiki Tsuneta's projects — King Gnu and millennium parade — score the same anime is a first, making this a genuine crossover moment for fans of either act.

King Gnu is known for blending alt-rock, pop, and hip-hop into what they call "Tokyo New Mixture Style" — a sound that has made them a frequent choice for major anime theme songs.
