Summary

  • Kenshi Yonezu and Hikaru Utada released both the single and the music video for “JANE DOE”
  • The song serves as the ending theme for Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc and captures the emotional dynamic between Reze and Denji

Following the Japanese premiere of Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc, Kenshi Yonezu and Hikaru Utada have released both the music video and the single for “JANE DOE” — the ending theme for the film. Written and composed by Yonezu with Utada lending her vocals, “JANE DOE” serves as a heartfelt duet capturing Reze and Denji’s story.

Directed by Tomokazu Yamada, the music video depicts Yonezu and Utada sitting on a bench at an empty, train station platform. Throughout the song, the bench swivels in various motions, further suggesting the emotional pull between the two. This visual metaphor, as described by the director, represents a “collision of galaxies,” where two distant stars, each with their own orbit, briefly come close, underscoring the video’s poetic meditation on connection and solitude.

“JANE DOE” is available now across all streaming platforms.
