Buddy Daddies interview with DURDN
Interview with DURDN (musical artist for the ending theme, My Plan; members SHINTA, yacco, and Baku)
Interviewer: What was your first impression of the series "Buddy Daddies"?
SHINTA: The "familial love" was clear in the premise; it was the kind of series that made me want to write a gentle song which enfolds the listeners. So we were going for something gentle with "My Plan".
yacco: DURDN hasn't had many cheerful songs so far; we tend to write songs with a bit of darkness to them. But we made very sure to steer clear of those dark elements for this anime. We thought we should write something truly filled with happiness.
Baku: Right. Since this song was for an anime about family, we wanted it to have a cheerier feel. I kept that in the back of my mind while singing, to make sure my singing didn't make it too gloomy.
Interviewer: Did the anime production staff have any specific instructions for the composition of the song?
yacco: They requested "a positive song full of happiness". I've never tackled a song like that before, so honestly, I got really stuck at some points. I'm in charge of lyrics, but given the environment I grew up in, I haven't had much experience with the kind of familial love that "Buddy Daddies" is about. That made things difficult. But precisely because I haven't experienced it, I was able to incorporate my ideals of "I'd love it if my family felt this way". I really am glad I got to write a song like this.
Interviewer: What did you keep in mind when creating an ending song to be played after the main episode?
SHINTA: Musically speaking, "My Plan" has some slightly odd sections. It kicks off with a musical phrase that's catchy but isn't the chorus; I decided on this since it's meant to be an anime ending theme. I wanted the whole song, including the very beginning, to have a uniform tempo in a good way - so that you could ease smoothly into it from the main episode. I figured it should be a fluid melody that wouldn't be too obtrusive in the anime.
Baku: Even at the very end of the track, it feels like the sound lingers a little. We thought that would leave a nice aftertaste.
SHINTA: We were requested to create that sort of lingering aftertaste, and I definitely thought we should do that as well. But in fact, that trailing effect only exists in the anime broadcast version. The CD version deliberately cuts off cleanly.
Interviewer: Is there anything you were especially concerned with when creating the song?
SHINTA: I'm in charge of tracking and arrangements, and when it came to that aspect, I wanted to evoke a very 90s sound for the world of "Buddy Daddies". So when I was working on the arrangement, I channelled the vibe of Japanese city pop and kayokyoku-influenced pop music from that era. Especially the phrase which precedes the chorus - it sounds a bit like fusion music. I put that in because I felt like this anime is very compatible with the fusion genre.
yacco: As for the melody, which I'm in charge of, I set the chorus to be higher than usual. Having the A-melody and B-melody be lower and the chorus be higher creates a more mellow impression. High voices carry more warmth, so I was trying to bring out the gentlest aspects of Baku's voice.
Baku: This song is definitely rather high for my vocal range. I figured that I shouldn't use my usual voice, and should sing in an airier mixed voice [a combination of chest voice and head voice], to give the listeners a more pleasant feeling. And I did try to do that, but my throat really does seize up when I sing too high after all. So there are points where I drop the airiness, and sing 100% in my natural voice. But this time I tried very deliberately to avoid doing that.
yacco: I thought it would be very tough to sing, since it was higher than usual, but Baku is a hard worker, and I figured he'd definitely be able to make this song his own. So I left that to him.
Baku: My vocal range has really been expanding lately, so it's okay. (laughs) I think I'd be totally fine even singing it live.
Interviewer: Was there anything else you found memorable during the production process?
yacco: There was a competition this time, so when we first received the request, we got to watch the still-unfinished footage of the anime. This gave us a grasp of the general story, which was quite a helpful reference. I think that's what allowed us to compose a whole new piece that meshed with the worldview of "Buddy Daddies".
SHINTA: And that really brought it home to me that I was composing an ending theme for an anime. It's different from creating an original song - there are all sorts of people involved, which I was very aware of when writing. That was very memorable for me.
yacco: It was absolutely vital for us to set our own egos aside and listen to the requests from the anime production team.
Baku: Oh, and when we submitted the candidate for the ending song, we also submitted an opening song, didn't we?
yacco: Right. We really wanted to get across our intense wish that they'd use our song, so we also sent in another song like, "If we wrote the opening, it'd be something like this..." (laughs)
Baku: We thought it'd be the opening, but it turned out to be the ending. (laughs)
SHINTA: But on the whole, when you listen to it, Baku-chan's slightly smoky voice really is a perfect fit for the ending's atmosphere. I'm sure that's why it was chosen. We've all been talking about that.
Interviewer: How did you feel when you saw the ending sequence accompanied by "My Plan"?
yacco: Incredibly happy. When the first episode aired, we all had a live watchalong on LINE.
SHINTA: There's a real thrill in doing an anime song that gets closed captions. (laughs) The CD also includes a remix version recorded by the two voice actors (Toyonaga Toshiyuki, who plays Kurusu Kazuki, and Uchiyama Koki, who plays Suwa Rei), and if you listen to it, I think you'll feel an even closer affinity with the series.
yacco: We received a lot of reactions on social media after the broadcast, and there have been more people getting into DURDN's other music after listening to "My Plan". We can really feel the magnitude of the response.
SHINTA: Maybe it's the impact of anime culture - I feel like we've been getting more and more reactions from overseas listeners.
Baku: We've even been getting more comments in English, on Instagram and so on. Turns out Japanese anime really is popular overseas as well.
Interviewer: Please tell us what you think are the selling points of this series "Buddy Daddies".
SHINTA: Probably the realism of the overall drama? Even with the fantastic elements of the assassin plot, there's a level of realism that the viewers can easily relate to and get emotionally invested in. I think that's the appeal.
yacco: It's not just about parenting - the protagonists learn and grow in various ways through raising a child, and that's what makes it feel truly real. There are lots of things which don't work out well; that's very relatable and gets everyone nodding along.
Baku: The first episode had an action scene where cake goes flying; I think that sort of cool action is the number one selling point. The car chase scene too - P.A. Works series really have such awesome action scenes. And two assassins raising a child while killing people is a fun contrast.
SHINTA: Personally, I really love the art by P.A. Works. And the voice actors are just amazing. Especially Morikawa-san (Toshiyuki), who plays Kyu-chan (Kugi Kyutaro) - his voice is incredible. I want to go to that cafe. I'd love to get the same juice as (Unasaka) Miri-chan. (laughs)
Interviewer: Finally, please give a message to everyone who is enjoying this series.
Baku: I gave it my all when singing "My Plan". Please enjoy it to the very end!
yacco: I wrote this song to match the anime's worldview, so I would be very happy if you listen through the ending without skipping.
SHINTA: I'm an anime fan myself, and I'm really enjoying "Buddy Daddies"; I hope you'll enjoy DURDN's music as well!

Nothing special
Because i don't want to
With everything in mind
I buried it
Don't look at me
Hold on, I refuse your love
When I secretly saw
You will also see
Nothing special
Because i don't want to
With everything in mind
I filled it
Don't look at me
Hold on, I refuse your love
When I secretly saw
You will also see
We are still
I'm not ready
It's impossible, it's impossible, it's impossible
Between you and me
The gap is too big
I can't meet I can't meet I can't reach you
Don't look at me
Hold on, I refuse your love
When I secretly saw
You will also see

ON THE ISLAND
濁ってく夜に手離したものの行方へを知るはずもなく 大事なものを守る勇気もありゃせぬ たったひ���つしか持っていけないとするなら何?のお決まりのクエスチョン 答えは決まってるんだ きっと君も踊りだす テントの隙間から覗く 忙しそうに、なんて。 持って 持っていない 当然 想定内 持って 持っていない 持って 持っていない 当然 想定内 持って 持っていたい 必要なのは決断力?君を楽しませるエンタメ性? 逃げるための持久力や瞬発力とかするどい嗅覚ですか? それともマッチとか…? 生きるための知恵とか 泥くさいその根性 深い森を走る好奇心に心奪われてんだ 追いかける、なんて。 持って 持っていない 当然 想定内 持って 持っていない 持って 持っていない 当然 想定内 持って 持っていたい 日曜の夜のしょうもない話

Kazuki & Rei’s Singing Parts in the Lofi Version of “My Plan”
Tumblr media
🔴Kazuki’s Part: The scenery never changes and every day is full of surprises, but those are the best parts.
Tumblr media
🔵Rei’s Part: Wrapped around your finger and going in circles, these days are dizzying yet endearing.
Tumblr media
🔴Kazuki’s Part: On your restless nights, I softly whisper a lullaby, and softly stroke your hair to the rhythm of your breathing. Even if it’s just a day, I want these days to continue as long as possible. Even if it’s just a day.
Tumblr media
🔵Rei’s Part: I chased after you as you ran barefoot. Maybe one day, you’ll surpass me.
Tumblr media
🔴&🔵Kazuki & Rei’s Part: Ah~. I wonder what tomorrow will be like. Why don’t we walk together? This will always be our place to come home to, and it will shine down on our sadness. I guess that’s fine, yeah, I guess that’s okay. Let’s try to share our love together. Let the light always shine upon hope, when the future is unpredictable.

🔵Rei’s Part: Busy days - the way you talk, you’re mannerisms, and the way you lie on the floor - you’re just like me. In the morning, you’re always ready with a precocious reply. Bounding out of the house with a puppyish smile.
Tumblr media
🔴Kazuki’s Part: These are the things that are bound to give me pleasure, no matter how old you get.

I used the official English translation that is provided in the official music video for “My Plan” by DURDN. I will link to that music video in the comments below, as well as to the Lofi version.
Also, a bit of cute bonus info under the Read More:
In the first round of the chorus, the lyrics  “Let’s try to share our love together,” are sung during these moments:

Kazuki putting down Rei’s cake on the table with all the other food he and Miri prepared for Rei’s birthday.

I love that! <3 So cute and sweet! <3

DURDN is a 3 member JPop-band signed with Sony Music Entertainment Japan who debuted in 2021. 2 of the members already used to work as producers for different artists as for example the KPop-girlgroup IZ*ONE.
This is their latest single and all their songs are such jams. Makes me want to dance.

I don’t really want to do anything I’ve buried it all away deep within my heart
Don’t you dare look me in the eye Hold on now, I don’t want your love That moment I saw in secret was something you saw too, right?
I don’t really want to do anything I’ve buried it all away deep within my heart
Don’t you dare look me in the eye Hold on now, I don’t want your love That moment I saw in secret was something you saw too, right?
We’re still completely unprepared for this, so it probably won’t work, there’s no way, it will never work The space between you and me is still far too wide I can’t see you, I won’t reach you
Don’t you dare look me in the eye Hold on now, I don’t want your love That moment I saw in secret was something you saw too, right?
