Kyouki no Melody

Melody of Ecstasy (狂喜のメロディ) is a song by Fantôme Iris.

It was announced on April 26, 2020 during the Fantôme Iris Banquet With My Underlings stream along with Gin no Yuri and Zakuro as a collaboration with SID, but it wasn't until May 5, 2021 that it was performed during Fantôme Iris 1st LIVE -C'est la vie!-. And then, the day after, a short version was released in AAside along with the Koharu Mitsurugi focused song quest "Bare Tiger Fangs". It was described as "With Jun's kidnapping as inspiration, this song fully incorporates Koharu's fierce beauty".

It is written by Mao, composed by Yuuya, and arranged by SID and Atsushi Koike -who was also in charge of all other instruments and programming-; the guitars were played by Cazqui, the bass by Mashiro Shirakami and the drums by RYOTA.

It is one of the title tracks for their first single, alongside Zakuro, which was released on July 14, 2021. It is also part of their first album miroir, which was released on September 7, 2022; and on the second disc of the Argonavis AAside Memorial Album, which will be released on April 12, 2023.

Lyrics
Romaji= Fukai kiri ga anatagoto saratte iku…

Tsuyoi hitomi ni yureteru kako no honoo

Saikai no chi e to tadoritsukeru made Mou sukoshi dakara mattete

Wasurekaketeta chi ga sawagidasu kankaku Zokuzoku suru daro?

Yowai yatsu hodo hoete wa chitte yuku

Mukidashi no kiba kokochiyoi itami Osu no honnou tomaranai

Sentakushi nante nai no sa kono ore wo koero Yararetain daro?

Toraware no anata made tsuzuku hikari no hou e

Wasurekaketeta chi ga sawagidasu kankaku Sentakushi nante nai no sa kono ore wo koero

Kyouki no merodi

Source: lyrical-nonsense Kanji = 深い霧が　貴方ごと　さらっていく…

強い瞳に　揺れてる　過去の炎

再会の地へと　辿り着けるまで もう少しだから　待ってて

忘れかけてた　血が騒ぎ出す　感覚 ゾクゾクするだろ？

弱い奴ほど　吠えては　散っていく

剥き出しの牙　心地良い痛み の本能　止まらない

選択肢なんてないのさ　この俺を越えろ やられたいんだろ？

囚われの　貴方まで　続く光の方へ

忘れかけてた　血が騒ぎ出す　感覚 選択肢なんてないのさ　この俺を越えろ

狂喜のメロディ English = A dense fog sweeps you away...

Your piercing eyes flick with the flames of bygone days

Just wait a little more, until we reach the place where we can meet again.

That blood pumping feeling that I was already forgetting It thrills you, doesn't it?

Those who are all talk disappear

Bare fangs, pleasant pain And an unstoppable male's instinct

There's no other choice but surpassing this me You want to do it, right?

For the captive you who is heading towards the light

That blood pumping feeling that I was already forgetting There's no other choice but surpassing this me

Melody of Ectasy
