"Symphony"), a cover of a 2004 single by Sukima Switch.[2][5] She also played the role of Akame in the anime television series Akame ga Kill which premiered in July 2014.[6] She made her official music debut for Music Ray'n by performing Akame ga Kill's opening theme "Skyreach".[7] In late 2014, Amamiya, Asakura, and Natsukawa formed the music unit TrySail,[8] which released its first single "Youthful Dreamer", used as the opening theme to the anime television series Ultimate Otaku Teacher, on May 13, 2015.[9]
