Sonny Boy OST - Lightship 

In the opening scene of the episode you can see that Mizuho has been crying. The entirety of the song washes over us as we watch Nozomi’s funeral and how her passing has affected Mizuho and Nagara. We’re left with the image of Nozomi’s overwhelming optimism as they plan to return home. Simply beautiful.

The moment Nagara cried had me weeping.

“…we have to be become friends again… Promise me you won’t refuse…”

at first it was confusing with so many things happening, then you slowly grasp the situation, and when you start to enjoy it, it ends. the pacing of this anime feels like my highschool life.

Highly underrated anime, I don't pretend that I understand the anime completely but it definitely deserve a spotlight for sure.

it's like you're always there, in the light, and i can't turn my eyes away this path stretches on, towards a place that will light my prayers and sorrow a root extends out from my lonely heart i grab onto it and smile like the shining stars in the night sky, your kindness, will always remain here even when we can't meet let's always talk in my heart because you were here, i've changed in this tiny corner of the world, this miracle that's allowed me to see the light of day again... i wonder if you're watching? if i listen carefully, i can hear your sweet voice and that makes it almost feel as though you're close by to be honest, i am lonely but the words you spoke to me will never (ever) fade, forever in the light (hope) Nozomi's name means "hope" 😭

this ost hits harder after finishing the show

I bet this soundtrack gonna blow up one day when sonny boy become popular.

If you're wondering, this track starts playing from almost the very beginning of episode 11...

This song hits hard now.

This was the closest I've seen something get to Flcl when comes to symbolism, music selection, and overall creativity. Classic.

What an incredibly moving song. Even if you detach the anime's scene and meaning from it, the composition is such an amazing rollercoaster of emotions. The way her voice drags and fades up and down is gripping, and at the end the way the horns feel like they are desperately struggling to move along the progression. To me that's representing Nagara and Mizuho. They feel so much pain and sorrow, but have to find a way to swallow it down and move forwards. Seriously I'm so in love with this track and show.

The trumpets part at the end is what made me tear up, really makes you feel like you're at a funeral event.

God those horns towards the end are so beautiful. Reminds me of a Beirut song or something, which is definitely not something I can say of most anime soundtracks lol. The amount of love and care that clearly went into the production of this show is just amazing, and I can't wait to how it ends!

This song is a masterpiece, it’s feels like a music to play when you meet your end but have no regrets since you lived your life to the fullest.

my favourite song from the anime, really ties together perfectly with what's going on in the episode

This song is really accurate of how loss feels like, it's really deep but transient, almost like it's not there at all, and after a while you can't feel it anymore, in fact you can't feel anything at all anymore...

"KiiiiiiiiBOOOOOOOOOU" tears in my eyes man. kibou for "hope" but also beautifully celebrating nozomi since her name also means hope

Farewell Nozomi of the Drift world. Your presence have forever changed both Mizuho and Nagara.

When the trumpets and drums start they gave me that feeling that everything is gonna be ok and we will move on and try our best for the future.Hope! This anime is a masterpiece Note:That what they actually said before the trumpets started HOPE.

The entire Sonny Boy soundtrack journey is that bittersweet feeling when you have to let go something once you so dearly loved. It hurts. Still, you let it sweep away anyway, as it's for both of you's sakes.

Lyrics romaji: hikari no naka ni itsumo kimi ga iru mitaide boku wa me o sorasenai michi wa tsuzuiteyuku 　 kanashimi ya inori o terasu hō e sabishigari no kokoro kara nobita 　 nekko o tsukamaete waratta kimino yasashi sa 　 kirameku yozora no hoshi no yō ni itsu demo koko de aenai toki mo zutto kokoro de hanashi o shiyō kimiga itakara kawatta sekai no honno sumikkode ubugoe o age tsunagaru kiseki 　 kimi wa miteru kana ？ mimi o sumaseba kikoeru itoshī koe sore wa soko ni iru no to niteiru boku wa hontōha sabishīkeredo kimiga kureta kotoba wa kiezu ni hikari no naka de

Also feels like the melody is a mash of the 3 people in that scene... Lyrics from Nagara, emotional melody from Mizuho, and the disjointed tropical music from Rajdhani (he has grown indifferent towards everything due to living too long, so he can't feel the sorrow as deeply as the other two).

3:16 onwards... the sounds of triumph and loss. Happily saluting for Nozomi!

I'm absolutely in love with this song.

I hate the fact that Sonny Boy didn’t receive the attention it’s should’ve but I’m also selfishly glad it didn’t 💧👁👄👁💧

The little coda at the end is so good,

Thank you for changing me, Nagara, Nozomi, Mizuho...

You know it's a banger when they got the trumpets going

congratulations sonny boy, you are the first anime that i actually cried at! sobbing and everything!

この曲聴いて泣いたわ

Been listening to this for weeks now and I translated it for all of you. Hits even harder when you understand the lyrics😭 ________________________________________ 🎵 It’s like you’re always in the light, I cant look away. (Instrumental) The path continues to a place that will light my prayer and sorrow. I took the root that grew in my lonely heart and I smiled. Your kindness is like a star in the night's bright sky. It's always here. We speak with our hearts, even when we can't find each other. I changed because you were there In this small corner of the world. There's a miracle that leads me to a baby's first tears. Can you see it? (Instrumental) If I listen carefully, I can hear your lovely voice. It's as if you were here. I feel really lonely, but The words you said to me (you) Will never (ever) disappear (forever) in the light. (Hope) (Instrumental grand finale)❤️😭🎶

Just amazing from beginning to end just like Sonny Boy an all time fav of mine now and forever.

this anime literally has the best soundtrack ever. almost most of the songs in the soundtrack are my favesssssss

Something about this song just giving me a sense of nostalgia... I don't know why, I never play any of the instrument in this song nor did I know any old or classic music or anything that sounds like this song but... I've always feel like crying listening to this song...

This series was about coming to age and the director also i remember clearing this out in a interview if i dont mistaking, just on the first episode i remember that scene where the characters were trapped on the school with some kind of dark space surrounding them and unable to get back to reality i could interpretate that like we feel lost once we get to cetain age coming to actually having to think what we are gonna do with our lifes our "path" you could call it, such an metaphorical way to illustrate it at least that was my way of seeing it of course this series touches so much more themes and its pretty profound. To some degree gave me vibes of tatami galaxy anotoher amaizing anime, sunny boy is not the kind of series that serve you in silver plate all the plot , messages and characters but its worth so much the effort on paying attention to every detail and dialog, loved the anime and i feel this is gonna age so well and became an cclasic.

the song is still full of emotion even when it's not in the anime' scene

never feel so empty finishing an anime

sonny boy was a masterpiece and this song is amazing

I love the trumpet duet at the end. Wish there was sheet music for it somewhere.

sonny boy was so underrated in 2021 but now it famos im very happy the best anime ever

Qué buena canción. Logra capturar los sentimientos del cap 11: Tristeza, nostalgia, esperanza

長良や瑞穂が希の死を前向きに捉えようとしていることが伝わってきてとても良い曲だと思う。 本当は二人とも悲しくて泣いてしまうこともあったけど、アウトロの金管がそれでも進もうとする彼らの姿勢にぴったりでエモいな。

とても明るいお葬式。 希…君がいたから変わった。

This song brings me so much peace.

2:15 i really like this part

2yrs and still made me cry. man. life I guess.

makes me cry everytime

this makes my heart feel so heavy :( when this episode opened, i kind of forgot what happened in the previous episode... and then i remembered. T_T

I can't listen to this song without crying lol

A pesar de perder a la luz más brillante hacia la esperanza del poder volver a la realidad, ellos seguirán adelante. Esta escena es triste y a su vez, hermosa.

The feeling of listening to this song 😭

musically & lyrically beautiful

This part of the episode emotionally destroyed me. The vocals are so expressive. This anime is extremely special.

all of songs in this anime is very good

Sonny Boy had amazing soundtracks ong

The brass at the end while reading translated lyrics makes me cry so much

This song perfectly captures the feeling of the tail end of something grand that could turn into either exactly what you were hoping for or the worst case scenario yet you except it as it is not matter what the outcome ends up being

Thank you so much this song is amazing
