Track Description: Zuiun - The 634th Movement
This work is part of the "Mizuho" historical legacy project, themed around the Imperial Japanese Navy's 634th Naval Air Group and the "Zuiun" seaplane.
The Zuiun was a unique aircraft, designed as a seaplane yet tasked with the grueling mission of dive-bombing. This song depicts the young men who gripped its controls, facing the "pure terror" of being human. It reflects on the cruelty of war, which sacrificed their youth and cast even the most compassionate souls into a mad, inescapable sky. Their decision to fly was an act of "bravery"-a desperate belief that they could become a shield for others.
Through fragments of history etched into the lyrics, this song stands by the pride of those whose voices were lost, serving as a quiet yet powerful prayer for peace.
Mizuho is a singer from Hiroshima. In "Zuiun," she writes and performs the history of Japanese Navy reconnaissance aircraft crews during World War II. She also performs as "Yokogawa Marilyn," connecting the legacy of Marilyn Monroe with Hiroshima. Experts describe her voice as having a core with rich tones and clear articulation that captivates listeners. Believing that learning history can prevent war, she delivers a message of reconciliation from Hiroshima to the world through music.
