■OP：Mao Uesugi "Zero Ignition"

I'm Mao Uesugi, and I'm honored to be performing the opening theme for Grisaia: Phantom Trigger as a solo artist. As a fan of the Grisaia series, I've always enjoyed its anime. I never imagined I'd have the chance to sing its opening theme, so this opportunity came as a huge surprise. I've poured my heart into the song, aiming to capture the essence of the Grisaia world while holding deep respect for Maon Kurosaki, who performed the previous series' openings.
I hope you'll enjoy Zero Ignition alongside this incredible series. Thank you for your support!

Profile
In 2012, she won the LisAni! AUDITION hosted by the anime music magazine LisAni! She debuted as an artist under the production of Satoshi Yaginuma as a member of the three-woman vocal unit spoon.
After spoon disbanded, she pursued a solo music career, actively performing in live events and on video platforms.
In 2022, she was chosen as the Phase 3 vocalist for fripSide, debuting again as part of the group with the opening theme "dawn of infinity" for the TV anime The Dawn of the Witch.
Despite her petite stature, her powerful and resonant voice became the backbone of fripSide Phase 3's twin vocal lineup. Between 2022 and 2025, she participated in four singles and four albums while embarking on a 47-prefecture live house tour across Japan.
In parallel, she performed at major anime music festivals such as LisAni! Live (2023, 2025), ANIMAX MUSIX (2024), and Animelo Summer Live (2024), garnering expectations for her continued success as a unit.
In 2025, she took the leap into her solo career, aiming for even greater heights as both a solo artist and a unit member.

■ED Theme by Yoshino Nanjō!
Her heartfelt message is here!

■ED：Yoshino Nanjō "Dandelion"
I'm Yoshino Nanjō, and I'm honored to perform the ending theme for the TV anime Grisaia: Phantom Trigger. It's been a long journey with the Grisaia series, and I'm delighted to be part of it again through this ending theme.
While I also play the role of Maki in the series, the song isn't from Maki's perspective. Instead, it's crafted to capture the overarching atmosphere of the story. This installment has its share of intense, blood-soaked moments, but I believe this ending theme provides a soothing and transparent contrast to bring balance. I hope you'll enjoy it!
