This is the first time that Orangestar has worked on an anime theme song and co-written the lyrics.

Message from Wolpis Carter:

I’m Wolpis Carter, who wrote some of the lyrics and sang the new ending theme song “Overseas Highway” for Digimon Adventure:. On the the theme of “Let’s jump into an unknown place!,” I collaborated on the song with Orangestar-san. We started the production from the lyrics, so I think it has become a song with a strong message. I hope you’ll listen to it a lot! Also, the song uses very high notes!”

Message from Orangestar:

I’m Orangestar, who wrote some of the lyrics and sang the new ending theme song “Overseas Highway” for Digimon Adventure:. I watched the first Digimon when I was a child, so it was a very strange feeling for me to be writing the song myself. I also had a lot of fun collaborating with Wolpis-san after a long time!
