Super Beaver (stylized as SUPER BEAVER) is a Japanese rock band formed in 2005. They are best known for their song "Shinkokyū" (深呼吸), which was used as an ending theme (the 9th ending theme for the series) for the fifth season of Naruto Shippuden,[1] their song "Rashisa" (らしさ), which was used as an opening theme for Barakamon in 2014, and their song "Single-Minded" (ひたむき) for the sixth season of My Hero Academia in 2022. The band published their first mini-album in 2008 under the indie label Rebelphonic, and it sold fairly well.[2] Their first two mini-albums were sold exclusively at Tower Records.[3]
