Tales of Arise Grand Theme "Blue Moon" Trailer and Full Song Released, Check the Lyrics Here

Blue Moon now available on streaming platforms

Listen to this heart-wrenching song now.

The song "Blue Moon" by Ayaka was previously announced as the "Grand Theme" for Tales of Arise. The full song is now released on various streaming platforms online, while a new trailer featuring scenes from the game was also released using the song.

Warning! The trailer may be a bit spoiler-y for people who are trying to avoid spoilers before the game. Best to opt to not watch if you’re preventing that.

Aside from Blue Moon, Ayaka's song "Hello, Again ~昔からある場所~" (Hello, Again ~Mukashi Kara Aru Basho~, literally "A Place From Long Ago") is also included as a tie-in to Tales of Arise story. According to Bandai Namco, Hello, Again will be an insert song to supplement the game's interlude.

You can check out the lyrics of Blue Moon below, along with our English translation:

いつかまたここで
その時は 笑顔でいたい
何億と月日が 流れても
あなたとならば

人はそれぞれ
背負うものが剥がれ
この星に
生まれた意味を知る

強く生きるため
弱さを隠して
恐れずに
痛みからはじまる

続いてく物語に
私はいるのかな?
届かないこの願いに
少しだけでいいから

聴こえてよ
触れたいよ
信じるよ

記憶を巡って
あの時は
向き合えなかったね
未来を信じて
コンパスを 握りしめたね

人はそれぞれ
背負うものが剥がれ
この星に
生まれた意味を知る

強く生きるため
弱さを隠して
恐れずに
痛みからはじまる

銀色に輝く月
照らすキミの瞳
その奥に宿す痛み
消してくれる誓い

聴こえたよ
ありがとう
信じるよ

Someday, in this place again
At that time, I want to smile again
Even if millions of months pass
As long as it's with you

Each and every person
Fade away from their burdens
To know the reason
they were born in this planet

To live strong
Hide away your weaknesses
And without fear
Start with the pain

Within the continuation of this story
Am I in it?
Even if I can't fulfill this wish
It's fine if I'm in it even a little bit

Listen to me
I want to touch you
I believe you

Going around my memories
At that time
I couldn't face you
But you believed in the future
And grabbed on to the compass

Each and every person
Fade away from their burdens
To know the reason
they were born in this planet

To live strong
Hide away your weaknesses
And without fear
Start with the pain

The moon shining in silver
Is illuminated within your eyes
And the pain hidden within them
I vow to erase them

I heard you
Thank you
I believe you

I heard you
Thank you
I believe you

Within the continuation of this story
Am I in it?
Even if I can't fulfill this wish
It's fine if I'm in it even a little bit

Listen to me
I want to touch you
I believe you

Listen to me
I want to touch you
I believe you

Thank you...

At this point, it's still unclear exactly what a Grand Theme entails, either this is a theme song for the game (aside from Kankaku Piero's HIBANA) or the game's ending song? We don't know for now.

Ayaka is a female singer and songwriter from Japan active since 2006 with her debut song "I believe". Her first album, "First Message" has sold 1.4 million copies. After 2 years of hiatus, she returned in 2009 with a new album, "The beginning". She also sang the theme song to the PSP game Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, "Why".

Tales of Arise is now available at the following shops (Note: Please keep in mind that we may receive a commission when you click on our links and make a purchase. This, however, has no bearing on our reviews and comparisons.):
