IGNITE

IGNITE is the first opening song for the Sword Art Online II anime adaptation. This song was also used as the ending song for SII Episode 01, though it used the same animation as the opening version, but with ending credits, similarly to how Crossing Field was used in the first season. The song was sung by Aoi Eir, with its lyric jointly written by Ogawa Tomoyuki and Aoi Eir composed by Ogawa Tomoyuki and arranged by Saku. It is the seventh single of Aoi Eir, and was recorded in 2014 and labeled by SME Records.

Lyrics
Rōmaji (TV edit)= Mayowazu ni ima mujun darake no sekai wo Sono te de uchi hanate

Koboreta namida no nukumori de Yasashisa wo shitta hazu nanoni

Doushite mata kizu tsuke atte Nikushimi wo umidashite ikun darou

Kishimu you na itami shitte sono tsuyosa ga Itsuka mirai wo yasashiku tsutsumu no darou

Mayowazu ni ima mujun darake no sekai wo Sono te de uchi hanate

Akai namida de oowareta kanashimi wo Sotto sotto dakishime te

Narihibiita shoudou ga Hajimari no oto ni kawaru you ni

Kanji (TV edit)= 迷わずに今 矛盾だらけの世界を その手で撃ち放て

こぼれた 涙の温もりで 優しさを知ったはずなのに

どうして また傷つけあって 憎しみを生み出して行くんだろう

きしむような痛み 知ってその強さが いつか未来を優しく包むのだろう

迷わずに今 矛盾だらけの世界を その手で撃ち放て

赤い涙で覆われた悲しみを そっと そっと抱きしめて

鳴り響いた衝動が 始まりの音に変わるように



English (TV edit)= Without hesitating, Take the world of paradoxes And shoot it with your hands

In the warmth of fallen tears We should've learned kindness

So why do we keep hurting each other And give birth to more hatred?

From the stinging pain I learn to be strong And gently blanket the future

Without hesitating, Take the world of paradoxes And shoot it with your hands

I ever so softly embrace The sorrow that is covered in red tears

Just as the ringing vibration Marks the sound of the beginning
