ASH DA HERO to Release New Single 'BELIEVERS' for Wistoria Anime OP

ASH DA HERO has announced their new single "BELIEVERS" will drop on May 27, with the title track confirmed as the opening theme for the second season of anime "Wistoria: Wand and Sword" (Tsue to Tsurugi no Wistoria).

The single will feature a special treat for fans with the inclusion of a reconstructed version of "Prologue," showing the group's willingness to revisit and reimagine their previous work.

For those unfamiliar with ASH DA HERO, they're a Japanese rock unit that has been making their mark in the anime music scene. Their selection for the Wistoria opening theme continues the trend of pairing energetic rock acts with fantasy anime series.

"Wistoria: Wand and Sword" is based on the manga series that follows Will Serfort, a student at a prestigious magic academy who cannot use magic but excels in swordsmanship. The fantasy setting and action-packed storyline make it a perfect match for ASH DA HERO's dynamic sound.

The timing of this release positions ASH DA HERO well within the competitive anime tie-in market, where opening and ending themes often serve as major career catalysts for both established and emerging artists. With the growing international popularity of anime, this collaboration could introduce the group to a broader global audience.

Fans can expect "BELIEVERS" to capture the adventurous spirit of the Wistoria series while showcasing ASH DA HERO's signature style when it releases this May.
