I've worked with Naruto, my dad, many times and we've been together for many years. I consider him to be my friend in arms. In this year of the anime "Naruto" and the 20th anniversary of FLOW's debut I'm so happy to be able to contribute a song to "Boruto", the story of the next generation, and I feel like I'm destined to do so. I hope that the song "Gold" will be a catalyst that will encourage and spur Bolt and his friends to further success in the future. (C) Masashi Kishimoto Scott/Shueisha, TV Tokyo, Piero
