by CHiCO with HoneyWorks, who temporarily suspended their activities in 2023 and announced a comeback on August 6, 2025, their debut anniversary, simultaneously released their 19th single “Ticklish” and 20th single “Senjo no Hana” on October 29.
“Ticklish” is a cute pop tune depicting a bittersweet love story, and was used as the opening theme for the TV anime “Kimi to Koete Koi ni Naru.” Meanwhile, “Senjo no Hana” is the opening theme for the TV anime “Saigo Hitotsu Dake ni Onegai Ka?”, featuring a straightforward rock sound. While the two works have completely different worldviews, both are full of CHiCO with HoneyWorks’ signature style, garnering attention from fans.
Additionally, studio live footage of both songs, which was released for a limited time to commemorate the release, will be re-released on their YouTube channel from 9:00 PM on October 31. CHiCO with HoneyWorks’ debut song, “Sekai wa Koi ni Ochiteiru,” is currently garnering renewed attention thanks to a dance video on TikTok, reaching number one on TikTok’s viral chart and number three on the music charts.
This popularity led to their first Zepp tour since their restart, which saw all venues in Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka sell out immediately after tickets went on general sale. Their momentum continues unabated, with an appearance at COUNTDOWN JAPAN 25/26 announced today.
This will be their first major festival appearance in nearly three years, and further growth is expected. Attention is focused on CHiCO and HoneyWorks’ future developments, as they continue to accelerate further after their restart.
