Reborn as a Space Mercenary Anime's Song Artists Announced
Reborn as a Space Mercenary anime's song artists have finally been announced. Japanese rock band FLOW will energize the anime with the opening song "Unstoppable," while guitar trio Asterism will put an emotional finish to the story with the ending song "My Way." This announcement came via an official statement by Anime News Network on July 5, 2026.
The series is a light novel adaptation written by Ryūto and illustrated by Tsukasa Koku. Originally published in Japan in 2020, the story also gained considerable attention with its manga adaptation. When businessman Hiroshi dies in a space adventure game, he finds himself on a real spaceship and begins working as a mercenary in this new life. Blending action, science fiction, and light comedy, the series is particularly on the radar of those who love space-themed isekai.
The selection of FLOW and Asterism shows the production team's emphasis on music quality. Considering FLOW's past work on major productions like Naruto and Code Geass, their song "Unstoppable" for Reborn as a Space Mercenary is expected to be a high-tempo track. Asterism, known for their virtuoso guitar performances, will likely have a more epic and emotional tone with the ending song "My Way."
The anime's release date has not yet been finalized, but according to sources, it is planned for fall 2026 or early 2027. This announcement has further heightened fans' expectations. As a space-set isekai story that somewhat breaks the genre's usual patterns, the series especially appeals to viewers of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime and Overlord. New trailers and visuals are expected in the coming months.
