[Are you really going to be working for the Empire? Those bastards have looted us. The nobles keep getting richer and us poorer. Do you really want to abandon me in the fight for freedom?]

[Yes, I will work for them. You are not understanding. I don’t want to die as a traitor. I want to be rich, get a good life and the empire can give it to me if I work for them.]

[We are not traitors. We are patriots and a true patriot should always be ready to fight the government for the land and the people!]

On the big screen that occupied the whole wall, a scene from the anime [Attack for Freedom] was being shown. Two people were arguing and subtitles were being displayed on the bottom of the screen.

The room was pretty dark and in the center of it, a fat guy was munching on a packet of chips while laying down on a sofa.

“No matter how much I see it, I don’t get bored of this.”

The fat guy muttered. His name was Jimmy Townley and he was an avid anime viewer. Although he was a college dropout, he had no intention of finding a job as his family was rich.

In other words, his goal was to laze around as much as he could until his family was going to pay for his expenses.

[What does the dog say? Woof! Woof! Woof!]

Suddenly, his phone rang. Lowering the volume, he picked it up and saw that it was his friend who was calling him.

His friend, Phil, was the same as him. An anime weeb.

He picked it up after a bit of hesitation and Phil’s happy voice came out from the other side.

“Yo Jimmy, how are you? Girls still running away from you?”

“Fuck you.” Jimmy snickered. “Why do you call me? Anything interesting came up.”

“Yeah, I don’t call without any reason. Did you see the press release that Animeroll released last week about [Attack for Freedom].”.

Jimmy glanced at the screen where the anime was playing and replied.

“No, what happened? I have not really checked anything as I’m binge watching my favourite anime these days. Even reading some webnovels. Found one about a guy trying to make it in Hollywood. You should definitely check it out.”

“I will check it out later. Anyway, Animeroll released an English title track for the dubbed version of [Attack for Freedom]. You should really hear it. Hearing it, you will feel like there’s a fire burning in your soul.”

Phil said, making Jimmy raise an eyebrow. He had heard English title tracks before. They were never that good. 

“Are you sure it’s good? They don’t have a good reputation in that regard.”

“I know. But check it out. It’s called Revolution by Dreamers. Don’t forget to recommend it in your accounts. We have a responsibility to promote good stuff.”

After saying that, Phil cut off the call and Jimmy wondered why he was recommending something from Animeroll, especially something related to the dubbed version of a famous anime.

Phil had a reputation of hating dubbed anime.

Being curious, he moved to sit in front of his laptop and searched ‘Revolution’ on MeTube. A music video quickly popped up on Animeroll channel.

It was released a week ago and had around 6 million views till now. The music video was just the opening of [Attack for Freedom]. 

Jimmy clicked on it and the music instantly started playing. The strumming of the strings in a high tempo started the song and the bass lines and drums soon came out.

‘This is… pretty good.’

He thought, vibing to the song automatically like it was giving him energy.

🎙🎹🎼

“No matter even if I’m alone.”

“The blood in my mouth just makes the pain sweeter.”

“Push me down, lift me up, I’m still a believer.”

🎙🎹🎼

Hearing the lyrics, Jimmy felt like it suited the opening a lot as it told the story of the main character’s conviction to keep going on no matter how many people are pushing him down.

He had a clear goal and he was fighting for it, trying his best to bring forth a revolution.

The song ended after 3 minutes and 30 seconds and Jimmy instantly replayed it. After hearing it on loop for a long time, he was finally content.

‘Phil is right. I need to promote things like this. Animeroll really kicked the ball out of the park this time.’

Thinking that, he closed MeTube and opened up Sparrow.

On the screen, it could be seen that his account had more than a million followers.

Jimmy was a lazy weeb but he knew how to make money out of his hobbies.

His account was very famous in the anime community and he had a podcast in which he discussed things about anime and webnovels which was very famous.

He quickly posted the link of ‘Revolution’ and tweeted about it. 

[Guys, you need to listen to this. This song makes me want to lose weight.]

His post quickly attracted a lot of attention and he even tagged his friends with a lot of followers to promote the song. Even the Animeroll PR team saw the opportunity and retweeted.

Over 7000 people commented on the post and the song was quickly spreading.

[Skyneves: Woahhh! ‘Revolution’ is getting a lot of support from the anime community. Let’s get the song to the top! For Aiden and Dreamers.]

[Chubby cat dealer: Thank you Jimmy for retweeting it. I have been listening to the song on loop these days. Exercising everyday while playing it on loop.]

[Move that back: I have never really heard of this song? Why is everyone talking about it?]

[I talk funny: I hate dubbed anime and anything to do with it. Ara Ara doesn’t even sound good in English.]

[Dancer Korg: Korg likes the song. Korg approves it. Go listen to it.]

[Dying every single second: Does anyone know if the band is having any shows? I really want to see them performing live. I think the atmosphere will be very electric.]

[Jetha Supremacy: I think they are going to perform at the New York Anime con. Many bands are performing there and Animeroll has their own convention there too.]

[Onee san simp: I was not going to go through the anime con this year but now I will just to see them performing live. I hope they give a good enough performance.]

[America’s ass: Yeah, many bands sound very different in live than the studio album. I hope this one isn’t like that.]

[Grandpa cultivator: What are these Dreamers? I have not heard of them before. They suddenly popped up like dance numbers in a Bollywood movie.]

[Why do superheroes not kill their partners in bed with all the radiation in them: The song is dope. I hope it gets the recognition it deserves.]

[Hollywood Insider: Aiden always hits it out of the park. Let’s keep supporting him. #Big supporter]

🎙🎹🎼

“Like those who came before you, your crown is going to fall.”

“No matter how tall are the walls.”

“No, I’m not the chosen one, I just have a dream to keep running.”

“I know I will fall, but I will move until I turn to nothing.”

🎙🎹🎼

The loud banging of the drums was the last thing the audience heard as the song came to an end.

Aiden was taking deep breaths and his shirt was soaked. In front of him, the whole auditorium was filled with silver light as the audience cheered the end of the performance.

“That was a good song.”

“One more.”

“You are a great singer. I love you.”

Hearing the audience response, Aiden smiled and thanked them before leaving the stage with the others. 

Currently, they were going through one show after another to promote the song and it was also doing well on the charts, according to Wade. Even Animeroll was happy with the way things were going.

Though Stephen, the executive producer, wanted the song to do way better, everyone who had heard of it had mostly praised it, saying that it was a great title track.

Because of that, the word of mouth was spreading and the numbers were steadily increasing.

“That one more show ended. How many more for the night?”

Jackson muttered as they came backstage. As always, it was busy with various staff members going around.

“Two more tonight.” Aiden replied with a smile.

“I have not worked this hard in years but it feels good.” Jackson said and Emily nodded beside him.

“Yeah, the song also reached 11th on Melody’s Top 50 new singles. I never imagined it would get so high in such a short time.”

Everyone nodded at those words. The song was doing very well, especially because they were a no name band and their fans were mostly individual. But they have gotten a lot of support from the anime community.

“It’s not enough. Imagine Giants are still at the top position.” Cameron suddenly said. “I want to get above them.”

“Cameron, they are a big band. It’s hard for us to beat them.” Jackson retorted, already being very happy with the reception the song was getting.

“I think ‘Revolution’ is way better than their song. Their fans are just streaming it nonstop. Moreover, we have a good chance to promote it a lot in the anime con tomorrow.”

Aiden nodded at those words.

Anime con was a big opportunity for them to attract the attention of a large number of people at the same time. If the performance went right, a lot of people will check out the song online.
