There are apparently a lot of Gin Tama fans out there, although I admit I’d never heard of it before looking into this single. Between 32 volumes in the ongoing manga series and over 190 episodes in the animated series, it’s not all that surprising that “Wo Ai Ni” acts as the 14th ending theme for the animated series.
This is certainly an interesting collaboration, pairing J-pop artist Hitomi Takahashi with J-rock group Beat Crusaders, who I’ve always meant to look more into. I guess this single gives me an excuse to check them out! With Hitomi Takahashi’s playful vocals (“Wo Ai Ni” means “I love you” in Mandarin) and a funky rock backing from the Beat Crusaders, you’ll definitely want to check this single out.
