Japanese singer-songwriter Taiiku Okazaki released his latest 15th digital single song “Knock Out” today on April 8, and posted the song’s music video on his official YouTube channel. The CD single of the song will be available on May 24.
The energetic rock was newly-written as the opening theme for the spring 2023 TV anime MASHLE: MAGIC AND MUSCLES. It was written/composed by Okazaki himself, and DAIDAI, a guitarist of hardcore band Paledusk, worked on arrangement. Along with Okazaki, all members of Paledusk perform in the music video, which was filmed in a set inspired by a foreign TV show.
