The Tokyo 2020 Olympics finally came to a close this weekend and with it came a neat little number showcasing LiSA’s “Gurenge” opening theme song from Demon Slayer. Along with performance, you can see the athletes being honored in the Japan National Stadium one last time.

Though the performance wasn’t from LiSA herself (the cover was made by Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra) it’s still a great way to cap off a momentous event. I’m sure that if you are a fan of the anime, the tune alone would most likely catch your attention and make you feel proud that this got represented.
