Ending the year with a bang: AiNA THE END announces her first overseas vinyl release

"The Way”, the global favorite “アイコトバ – The Spell” from The Apothecary Diaries, and “Red:birthmark” from Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury. Together, the tracklist spans over 150 million streams and represents some of the most acclaimed moments of AiNA’s career.

AiNA THE END is ending the year with something fans can actually unwrap: her first international vinyl release, My Collection of Anime Songs. Packed with her most iconic anime tie-ins, it’s the year-end drop no one saw coming – now pressed for the world.
Released through German label Black Screen Records, this marks AiNA THE END’s first-ever overseas vinyl edition. The collection brings together eight of her most defining anime contributions, including the smash-hit TV anime Dandadan Season 2 opening theme “革命道中 - On

The vinyl features exclusive artwork illustrated and designed by German artist Liya Weng, extending the concept and mood behind AiNA THE END’s “On The Way” single campaign. The first press is available in two special color variants – Pearl Horizon and Crystal Clear – and includes a 4-page 12-inch booklet featuring both Japanese and English lyrics. Additional vinyl colourways will also be available, giving collectors even more to look out for.
While general sales land on 16 January 2026, fans attending Manga Barcelona will have the chance to purchase the vinyl ahead of its global release, complete with event-exclusive bonuses.

Beyond this milestone, AiNA THE END continues to expand her artistic reach across music, film, theatre, and live performance. This December, she will headline her solo show nukariari at Tokyo Garden Theater (20 December), following a year that included her first overseas solo concert in Taiwan, a nationwide 9-city tour (革命道中), and the announcement of her first appearance as a solo artist on NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen.

With My Collection of Anime Songs, AiNA THE END closes out 2025 with a career-defining step – one that brings her voice, vision, and unmistakable artistry to vinyl collectors and anime music fans worldwide.
