Currently in the midst of her 30th anniversary as an artist, Maaya Sakamoto continues to shine. The concert held April 18 and 19 at Tokyo’s Ariake Arena ended to great acclaim. And for those who missed the show or want a greatest hits, this artist is releasing a greatest hits album of sorts, titled Yoin. This album collects all six theme songs she performed for the smartphone JRPG and there’s a lot more to be included!
From The Press Release
Disc one features all six theme songs from the smartphone role-playing game Fate/Grand Order, from “Shikisai,” which was released alongside the official game launch in 2015, to “Tokei,” the theme song for the final chapter released in 2025.
“Tokei” was released digitally last year and will be recorded on CD for the first time.
The first-press edition is a deluxe limited edition release that comes with a Blu-ray disc featuring previously unreleased footage. It is packaged in a three-sided sleeve case with an original double-sided illustration by Takashi Takeuchi of TYPE-MOON.
