The underappreciated Tsubasa Fly has been teasing “Ray of Hope” for a while, but now we have a little preview file:

I’m not going to lie to you; “Ray of Hope” is fine, but that B-side, “Gleaning” (shut up about the spelling), is a lot more than fine. And I’m beginning to notice a pattern with these things.

Also, on their brand-spankin’ new website, Tsubafula is touting a series of five idol battles to celebrate their own return to a five-piece:
