The new Okinawan girls band Stereo Pony is on a roll. Last month, they released their debut single "Hitohira no Hanabira," which was used as the ending theme of the hit anime series "Bleach." Now, they will be doing the theme song for the "Mobile Suit Gundam 00" series, starting on January 11.
The "Gundam" franchise has not used a new artist for a theme song since Hitomi Takahashi sang "Bokutachi no Yukue" in 2005 for "Gundam SEED Destiny." Like Takahashi, the three members of Stereo Pony are all in their teens.
Many "Gundam" theme songs have become hit singles in the past, which means high hopes for Stereo Pony's tune, titled "Namida no Mukou." The single will go on sale in February.
