Lucifer And The Biscuit Hammer cour 2 will start airing on Oct 7, 2022.

The website also released the comments of the opening and ending theme song artists.

Raon’s comment:

I read the original “Hoshi no Samidare” when I was little, so I’m very happy that it’s being adapted into an anime, and I’m really honored to be able to sing the OP for that work!

I remembered the content of the original that I read a long time ago, and wrote the lyrics directly, but I was excited and had fun working on it.

I’ve always loved Japanese anime songs, and I’m so happy that my original song has finally been chosen as the anime’s theme song! I was impressed!

Through this work, I would like to continue to do my best so that Raon’s voice can reach more people!

Sano Ibuki’s comment:

I was in charge of the ending theme for “Hoshi no Samidare”. It’s a song called “ZERO”.

I read the original until it fell apart and made the music. I’m 26 years old this year, but when I read this work, my boyish heart cried out deep inside me, and I ran away from home and ran with all my might, regardless of my age.

Hoshi no Samidare” is a wonderful work that reminds us of such a sense of loss and elation.

When I was working on it, I was asked to write a closing song like the opening song. I would be happy if ZERO would be the best opening BGM for the encounter and reunion of this work.

The first cour of Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer anime released in Japan on July 8, 2022.
