Junko Yagami is the singer of the ending theme for the seventh and final film in the Be Forever Yamato: Rebel 3199 project. Bandai Namco Filmworks announced the assignment on a Friday. The song is titled "Haruka e, Eien e" (To the Distance, To Eternity) in one account and "Haruka e, Towa e" in the other. It was written by Yohei Matsui with music by Hiroshi Miyagawa and Akira Miyagawa, arranged by Akira Miyagawa. A music video was streamed on the official YouTube channel.
The pairing connects Yagami to the franchise's earlier film era. She last sang a Yamato theme in 1983 with "Love Supreme ~Shijou no Ai~" for Space Battleship Yamato: Final Chapter. The new song's music was composed in part by Hiroshi Miyagawa, who wrote the 1980 source song the track is based on, with his son Akira Miyagawa handling music and arrangement.
The film is Nijiiro no Rinne, the seventh entry in the project and its final chapter. It opens in Japan on October 30, 2026. A rainbow-colored visual drawn by character designer Nobuteru Yuki was revealed, alongside seven character visuals on rainbow-colored backgrounds covering figures including Susumu Kodai, Yuki Mori, and Sasha. Harutoshi Fukui is general director and scriptwriter. Naomichi Yamato directs, Satelight handles animation, and the cast includes Daisuke Ono, Houko Kuwashima, Megumi Han, and Koichi Yamadera.
