"Nobody" is a song by American pop rock band OneRepublic. It was released on April 12, 2024 as the ending theme for the anime Kaiju No. 8.[1][2]
Background and composition[edit]
"Nobody" was written by band members Brent Kutzle and Ryan Tedder as well as Joe Henderson, Tyler Spry, and Josh Varnadore. It was produced by Henderson, Kutzle, Spry, as well as John Nathaniel. In a comment on the anime's website, Tedder explained the background of the song:[3]
Around the spring of 2023, I had a meeting with the Kaiju No. 8 team, where they showed me some of the footage and storyboards, and from there I analyzed the work and characters and thought about what kind of sound was needed. I wanted the song to convey a sense of exuberance, fun, and shining moments, and since I was in Japan on business in November 2023, I wrote the lyrics while I was there. This song was inspired by Japan to the greatest extent possible.
