'Crow' is a song written by Kenshi Yonezu for the 2026 NHK Soccer Theme, with a video that features a pencil-drawn touch reminiscent of manga. The video shows a person chasing a ball with all their heart, while a crow flies powerfully into the sky above their head.

The result is a video that combines the single-mindedness of the team's efforts, which can't be told only by wins and losses, with the crows flying freely.
