Electric Callboy join composer Hayashi Yuki on a new version of the My Hero Academia theme, out globally on 22 September.
Electric Callboy’s next release moves from festival stages to the opening of a major anime franchise. The German band has reworked “You Say Run,” the theme associated with My Hero Academia, with the series’ composer, Hayashi Yuki. It marks the anime’s 10th anniversary and will be released globally on 22 September.
The collaboration places Electric Callboy’s hybrid metal-electronic approach next to Yuki’s orchestral and anime scoring language. The result is positioned as an official anniversary rework rather than a fan cover, which gives it a different weight in both the band’s catalogue and the franchise’s anniversary rollout.
The announcement keeps details minimal—no full tracklist or accompanying visual, just the single and its date. That restraint fits the project: an established anime theme passed through a band whose audience doesn’t always overlap with anime fandom. Whether the version bends toward Yuki’s cinematic structure or Electric Callboy’s breakdown-heavy sound will be clear when it lands in late September.
