MarcFBR said: We're also waiting on full confirmation of who did the lyrics and composition, but based on people who went to DigiFes where the song was announced (and performed for the first time publicly) it appears that Michihiko Oota and Hiroshi Yamada did the composition and lyrics (respectively.)

This is a, if true.Michihiko Ōta was arguably the biggest acting force for golden-agesongs. With, and, I'd say (off the top of my head) he was responsible for the composition and arrangement for about half (if not a little more) of all theme songs / characters songs /Christmas album songs / anything. The other half were composed by various other, less-utilized artists (Cher Watanabe was probably the second-most-active contributor). Basically, if there's a song you love from, it's very likely Ōta was responsible. That's not even mentioning the songs he's performed for the franchise ("SLASH!!", most famously). He hasn't been with the franchise much in recent years. I was very surprised when he wasn't asked to contribute to the10th Anniversary album, and his most recent original song for the series was way back in 2009 ("A Door To The Future ~Ever Since That Summer Day~"). He wasn't involved in, or even(beyond composition credit for his past songs that have been re-recorded as "tri. versions"), so it's a pleasure to see him back with the franchise.Likewise, Hiroshi Yamada was probably the most-utilized lyricist for classicsongs, but he hasn't been with the franchise since. The DiGiMONMUSiC team has been favoring new artists for most of this past decade, so if this veteran songwriting team really has returned, it's fantastic news!I wonder what they'll do for the sixth and final ending theme, though. A big duet between Miyazaki and AiM seems like something they'd break out for the final installment.
