ReoNa is the opening theme performer for the anime adaptation of Nachi Aono's Kimi ga Shinu made Koi wo Shitai, which premieres July 7 on AT-X with later broadcasts on Tokyo MX, KBS Kyoto, Sun TV, and BS11. She also performs the ending theme for The Exiled Heavy Knight Knows How to Game the System, which premieres July 2 on TBS and MBS's Super Animeism TURBO block.
ReoNa's 2026 output is split between two summer anime: she sings the opening theme "Amore" for the adaptation of Nachi Aono's manga I Want to Love You Till Your Dying Day, and the ending theme "Lv. 1 Shokugyō: Ningen" (Level 1 Occupation: Human) for The Exiled Heavy Knight Knows How to Game the System. The latter premiere date is July 2 on TBS and MBS's Super Animeism TURBO block, running two consecutive cours opposite SPYAIR's opening theme. The former premieres July 7 on AT-X, with later broadcasts on Tokyo MX, KBS Kyoto, Sun TV, and BS11, directed by Yasushi Tomoda at studio ROLL2.
The two Heavy Knight announcements arrived a day apart and describe the same production under different titles: one calls it The Exiled Heavy Knight Knows How to Game the System and the other The Reincarnated Heavy Knight Is Unmatched in Game Knowledge. Both name ReoNa's ending theme as "Lv.1 Occupation: Human" and both place the premiere on July 2. Only the second mentions the show's protagonist Elma, Luce, and nemesis Maris.
In October, ReoNa tied the "Amore" single to her own history with the author rather than a routine assignment. In a Megami Magazine interview she said she had read Aono's original manga for a long time and had met the author through a radio program and at her live shows. She recorded the song with Pan of LIVE LAB., who wrote the lyrics and handled composition and arrangement.
