The third great song by LiSA is Rising Hope, the opening song of The Irregular at Magic High School.
Rising Hope was released on May 7, 2014 and is the first anime tie-in song that LiSA has written lyrics for.
Rising Hope was written right after LiSA’s first solo live at the Nippon Budokan in January 2014. At her first solo live at the Budokan, she was unable to sing as much as she wanted to due to her poor health, but she sang the song with her fans to make the live a success.
Originally, LiSA had made it a virtue not to show their weaknesses on stage, but from this time on, they changed their direction to show the audience how they challenge themselves in the flesh, even if it is muddy.
Rising Hope is the song that came out of this experience.
The powerful message of becoming strong for the sake of the people you love is expressed in the voice of the singer who has the will to never bend his beliefs.

Mark(Sword Art Online 2nd season’s OP)


引用:amazon.com

The fourth great song by LiSA is Mark the ending theme song for Sword Art Online 2nd season Mother Rosario Arc.
Mark was released on December 10, 2014, and was the first ballad song that I worked on as a single. Mark is not meant to be a love song, but rather a song about the strong bonds we share with our dearest friends.
This matched the content of the Sword Art Online Mother’s Rosary Arc anime, and I’m sure it brought tears to the eyes of many people who watched it.
The song is also very popular among LiSA fans because they feel like it is being sung for them.
