- "Aria" by Kalafina, especially in the context of the fourth The Garden of Sinners movie, where it is used as the ending theme."From within the endless darkness
The bonfire you gave me
Is lighting the life
That was born within my hollow chest"
"Rowing this lonely boat
The bonfire keeps assembling grief
In this hollow world
Your aria is resounding..." - Similarly, "Sprinter", used as the ending theme for the 5th movie. Especially harrowing since it follows a tear jerking heroic sacrifice — which is made all the more tear jerker by the fact that it was unnecessary yet unavoidable."In meeting you
I saw a dream that could never come true
An eternity that could be overcome within a single second"
"Facing the wind I wave a torn flag
On this way where you are not
I will live my life for myself
Till the end of the world..." - Then there's also "Manten"/"The Whole Sky":"I don�t need a bouquet of flowers
to mourn me
Just grant my wish while my heart isn�t crushed
I want to see for myself
the moment when people�s wishes
are filled with brilliant light" - Also "To The Beginning":"My scream and prayer
for a world where people will no longer cry
go nowhere but vanish instead in the sky tainted red
So I�m able to throw away all solace and go on"
