Japanese rock sensation
THE ORAL CIGARETTES is preparing to kick off 2026 with a bang by releasing their highly anticipated new single titled
"ERASE" on January 7. This track has been chosen as the opening theme for the second season of the TV anime
"地獄先生ぬ〜べ〜" (Nube) and promises to captivate fans with a fast-paced sound and catchy melody.
On the same day as the single release, fans can look forward to the official
Music Video premiere, which will be available on YouTube. In addition, a teaser video will also be released ahead of the launch. The song links perfectly to the anime's enigmatic world, incorporating themes from the show into its lyrics.
This anime, based on the incredibly popular comic series that ran from 1993 to 1999, showcases the struggle of a supernatural teacher named
Nue Naru who protects students from malevolent spirits and monsters. With a staggering
29 million copies sold, the original manga is a foundational pillar in the realm of Japanese occult storytelling. The new season of this anime will premiere on
January 7, airing weekly on
TV Asahi.

Apple Music or
Spotify will receive an original smartphone wallpaper based on the anime. This initiative encourages engagement from their audience and enhances anticipation for the release.
