This is how they are, straight from the video:

エンディングテーマ
「約束」
作詞 芦沢和則
作曲 芦沢和則
唄 園崎未恵

[Ending Theme: "Yukusoku (Promise)" Written and Composed by Kazunori Ashizawa, Sung by Mie Sonozaki]

So... how should that be added to the db? Doesn't exactly fit into the format given ( [#<number>: ]"<title>" by <artist> [(eps [start]-[end])] ) but it pretty much how most themes are credited.

When the OP/ED theme is a song, the credit goes to the singer; when it's instrumental, the credits goes to the composer.

Tyops are good for the soul. Really only credit the singer? Seems deeply freakin' unfair, not to mention misleadin'

No, it isn't. Cool

Enter lyric writer(s), composer(s) and arranger(s) credits with "Theme Song Lyrics," "Theme Song Composition," and "Theme Song Arrangement," respectively. "Theme Song Performance" goes to the singer.

I've always added 作詞 as THeme Song Lyrics, 作曲 as Theme Song Composition and 編曲 as Theme Song Arrangement.
