Kanjani8’s first single of 2015, “Tsuyoku Tsuyoku Tsuyoku” (Strongly, Strongly, Strongly) was released released last June 3. The newly released song is currently on air as the theme song for NTV’s “Do S Deka” starring member Okura Tadayoshi.

It’s a medium-tempo tune that goes perfectly with the 7 members’ band sound. It’s a song that gives people a big push on the back when they are trying to take on something in life.

The music video was filmed outdoors and was shot in monochrome for the most part. To get a scenic view, a drone was used to get aerial shots. Check out their latest video and single details below.

After the first batch of Candy Crush Soda ads introducing Kanjani8 as the new girl group Kyanjani, a new series of of CMs have aired.

Watch Yokoyama Yu “Yoko-ko”, Shibutani Subaru “Subako”, Murakami Shingo “Mura-ko”, Maruyama Ryuhei “Maruko”, Yasuda Shota “Yasuko”, Nishikido Ryo “Nishikiko”, and Okura Tadayoshi “Kurako” in their solo CMs as they play and pose with props and random objects such as tennis balls, hula hoops, flute, ice cream, dried squid cuttlefish and more!
