The non-credit ending video for RIIZE's new song "KILL SHOT" has been released, featuring the anime "KILL A.O." The story of Jūzō Ōkami, who suddenly transforms from a 39-year-old legendary killer into a 13-year-old middle school student, is depicted with a fast-paced beat and emotional melody. At the beginning, Jūzō is shown as a killer with a cigarette in his mouth, pulling out a gun from his pocket. Then, he is stung by a bee on his neck, transitioning into his middle school form. His mundane days as a killer change as he is surrounded by a new environment and colorful characters, beginning to show joy in his eyes and a happy expression. The video carefully follows Jūzō's daily life as he transitions from a killer to a middle school student, revealing glimpses of his killer skills and gun action even in his new form. Anticipation builds for the battles against the 'strong enemies' approaching Jūzō, alongside his bright school life with friends. As he spends time with his schoolmates, the harshness of his killer persona fades, and the colors of a brighter life begin to emerge dramatically, all enhanced by the cool sound of RIIZE's "KILL SHOT." "KILL A.O." is a popular work serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump by the manga artist Tadatoshi Fujimaki, known for works like "Kuroko's Basketball" and "ROBOT×LASERBEAM." The new song "KILL SHOT" expresses the world of "KILL A.O." where "front and back" and "everyday and extraordinary" intersect, capturing the tension and dynamism of the work through music.
