This song is the theme song for the serialized TV drama series Bakebake, airing in fall 2025. With the hope that it would remain a beloved work for many people long after the drama has ended, it has been reimagined as an animation. This time, the concept was developed by Ryosei Sato of Humbert Humbert, and based on that idea, production moved forward while drawing parallels between the rapidly changing era from the end of the Edo period to the Meiji era and the lives of those of us living in the present day. It depicts the perspective on work expressed in the lyrics, as well as the way we continue our daily lives, facing a wide range of emotions in the course of our everyday existence, unchanged in any era.

Description: JKD planned and produced “Water Baby,” a brand film for the Australian-born swimwear brand Speedo. Centered on the fundamental question, “Why do humans swim?”, the film offers a profound reexamination of the relationship between people and water through the remarkable underwater performance of former Olympic medalist and synchronized swimmer Raika Fujii. The music was composed by Jun Miyake, the world-renowned musician who also drew attention for his bold arrangement of “Kimigayo” performed at the closing ceremony of the Rio Olympics. The powerful Bulgarian chorus evokes a sense of life’s imprint, giving the work a striking and intense finish.

Description: “Scuffin” refers to the lines etched into a bottle through repeated use. A returnable bottle requires the extra step of being returned in order to be used again.

The scenes in which the bottle glows were filmed by shining projector light onto cut-paper artwork.
