Comment from Yuki Kajiura:
“I am truly honored to have been given the opportunity to create the music for Fena: Pirate Princess, a romantic tale of treasure hunting on the ocean. I had a lot of fun composing music that would be suitable for an ocean adventure. The characters are unique, and the scenery as they travel is absolutely gorgeous! I can’t wait to watch their full adventure from beginning to end. I hope that my music will be worthy of this anime, and that everyone who watches it will enjoy the soundtrack!”
