AiNA THE END debuts ‘Aria’ live for upcoming drama at DayDay. SUPER LIVE 2025

Singer-songwriter AiNA THE END made a memorable impact at DayDay. SUPER LIVE 2025 on April 12, performing her latest track “Aria” for the first time at Pia Arena MM. The emotional mid-tempo song is now the official theme for NTV’s new Saturday drama, The Reluctant Preacher (なんで私が神説教).
AiNA wrote the lyrics after connecting deeply with the show’s script. She teamed up with longtime collaborator Shin Sakiura, with whom she has worked for over ten years, to compose the song.
“Aria” reflects the emotional evolution of the drama’s lead character — a woman who begins to rediscover strength and warmth as she opens her heart to those around her. AiNA describes the theme of the song as “拓き,” meaning “an opening,” echoing the personal transformation shown in the drama.
During her performance, AiNA shared a heartfelt message:
“Even if you can’t speak perfectly, that doesn’t mean you’re empty. You’ve lived through things, that’s enough. So it’s okay to just be yourself.”
The lyrics highlight unity and self-worth, with the use of “僕ら” (we) carrying a message that everyone can be a source of light. With its touching lyrics and gentle melody, “Aria” is a standout track in AiNA THE END’s growing discography.
