AiNA THE END releases “Luminous,” the new ONE PIECE opening theme, alongside a music video and upcoming 2026 Asia tour dates.

AiNA THE END has released her latest single “Luminous” on April 3, 2026. This marks her newest contribution as the opening theme for the Elbaf Arc of ONE PIECE. The track is now available on major streaming platforms, alongside its official music video released on her YouTube channel.

AiNA THE END releases “Luminous,” the new ONE PIECE opening theme, alongside a music video and upcoming 2026 Asia tour dates.

The “Luminous” music video reunites AiNA THE END with director G2 YUKI TSUJIMOTO. This follows their previous collaboration on “革命道中 – On The Way.” That earlier release, which served as an opening theme for DAN DA DAN Season 2, achieved significant milestones. This includes charting on the Billboard Global 200 and reaching the Top 50 of the Billboard Japan Hot 100. It also accumulated over 200 million global streams and appeared on Spotify’s Viral Top 50 Global chart.

The new video for “Luminous” centers on the concept of movement. It uses the act of running as a visual and thematic device tied to personal change. As the narrative progresses, obstacles are reframed into moments of connection, leading to a group dance sequence that reflects the song’s energy. The visual approach blends elements of dream and reality, aligning with the tone of the track.

“Luminous” was also performed live for the first time on TV Asahi’s Music Station. The Elbaf Arc of ONE PIECE is scheduled to begin airing on April 5. It will introduce a new storyline supported by AiNA THE END’s opening theme.

In addition to the release, AiNA THE END is set to begin her 2026 Asia tour this month, with scheduled performances in Seoul, Bangkok, and Taipei, followed by dates across Japan. The tour continues her expansion into international markets after several recent career milestones.

AiNA THE END first debuted in 2015 as a member of BiSH before transitioning into a solo career. She has since released multiple projects and contributed songs to television dramas, films, and commercial campaigns, while also expanding her work into acting and live performances.
