My Hero Academia releases new anniversary theme with Electric Callboy
Toho Co., Ltd. will release a reworked version of the My Hero Academia theme song You Say Run featuring German band Electric Callboy on Sept. 22.
Live debut in London
The updated track premiered live at the My Hero Academia in Concert show held in London on Sept. 20. This performance took place ahead of the wider global rollout scheduled for later that month.
Collaboration details and vocals
Composer Hayashi Yuki worked with Electric Callboy members Kevin Ratajczak and Nico Sallach to create the new arrangement. The band folded the original orchestral elements into their own blend of EDM and pop hooks.
Song history and tone
This version arrives a decade after the anime first premiered with its original high-energy tone. Toho sought international artists who could provide powerful shouts and melodic vocals to match the show.
