Naniwa Danshi get busy on 10th single ‘HARD WORK’, theme song of 'Yokohama Neighbors' — watch

Naniwa Danshi are clocking in with their 10th single ‘HARD WORK’ — and it’s anything but a grind.

Now available to stream worldwide, the new release sees the STARTO ENTERTAINMENT septet lean into a mild rock edge while keeping their signature charm intact. In ‘HARD WORK’, the group embraces the warmth of an inner-city spring, celebrating friendship and fun with a sound that proves they’re more than just cookie-cutter idols.

The track also serves as the theme song for the hit drama Yokohama Neighbors season one, starring member Ryusei Onishi alongside Hara Yoshitaka of timelesz.

Beyond its punchy title track, the digital single includes bonus song ‘Sukisugi’, the official anthem for Naniwa Danshi’s national campaign with Sugi Pharmaceuticals.

For fans who want more, physical editions of HARD WORK are also out now wherever J-pop CDs are sold, across three versions, each packed with additional tracks and exclusive video content.
