◆ AIMYON comment

I was approached about writing the theme song just as the orchid I had been carefully cultivating at home had finally produced buds and bloomed purple flowers.

It was a perfect sync, as after more than a year and a half of no flowers blooming, I was surprised to see the brilliant purple flowers starting to bloom.

I'm sure it's just a coincidence, but since the story is based on the father of Japanese botany, Makino Tomitaro, I felt like the flowers were congratulating me and saying hello, which made me very happy.

This song was created while facing the protagonist and his wife, who have the power to love wholeheartedly.

When I think about it being broadcast every morning, I get nervous about the coming mornings. Thank you.
