"Chikai" (誓い, lit. "Vow") is a song by Japanese American singer-songwriter Hikaru Utada. Along with its English-language counterpart "Don't Think Twice", it serves as the ending theme song to the Square Enix video game, Kingdom Hearts III.[1] "Chikai" first appeared on Utada's seventh Japanese-language studio album, Hatsukoi, and was also included on the setlist of their Laughter In The Dark Tour.[2]
The song and the English version "Don't Think Twice" were released as a B-side of the single "Face My Fears" as a CD single on January 18, 2019, making it their first release on the format in eleven years since their 2008 single "Prisoner of Love". It is also their first release with original English songs since "This Is the One" in 2009.[3]
