The official YouTube channel for Netflix Anime has started streaming a main trailer for the season 1 of the upcoming anime Rising Impact. The clip features the anime's theme song "gifted" performed by four-piece Japanese rock band Blue Encount . Blue Encount was formed in 2004, and has provided theme songs for Gintama , Mobile Suit Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans , My Hero Academia , and Mix Meisei Story . The band's vocalist/guitarist Shunichi Tanabe says, "Rising Impact unleashed after 25 years. The great honor of singing the theme song, we were able to take on the challenge with as much passion as Gawain's straightforwardness. In this day and age when we ask ourselves daily about our 'individuality,' what kind of 'gift=talent' do we as human beings have? With 'gifted,' I feel we were able to write our own answer. I hope this song will be food for your soul." Blue Encount profile photo...
