A 1-minute preview of the brand-new insert song “Time Breathing” is now available. Feel free to visit the store page to check it out—
In terms of music production, The last poem carries on the consistent level of polish and quality established by its predecessor Christmas Tina The insert song is performed by Nana Hatori, a Japanese–American singer who has participated in the singing and production of music for numerous games. She has written lyrics and composed songs for the Love Live! series, and has also performed songs for multiple games, including SEGA’s SONIC FORCES and Cygames’ GRANBLUE FANTASY VERSUS.
The story of The last poem takes place in Tokyo, Japan, in 1998, after the collapse of the bubble economy.
That year, we remember—
the Asian financial crisis, rumors of the Y2K bug,
ParaPara on the streets,
and Ringo Sheena and Hikaru Utada playing on the radio.
To better capture the texture and atmosphere of the music from that time, the insert song primarily draws inspiration from the R&B style commonly found in late-1990s Japanese pop music.
