"Orphans no Namida" (オルフェンズのなみだ, Orufenzu no Namida, lit. "Tears of Orphans") is a song recorded by Japanese singer Misia. It was released on 25 November 2015 by Ariola Japan as the fifth and final single from her twelfth studio album, Love Bebop (2016).[1] Misia wrote the lyrics and Shirō Sagisu composed, arranged and produced the track.[2] "Orphans no Namida" serves as the first ending theme to the 2015 anime series Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans.[3] In commemoration of the 70th postwar broadcast, Misia performed the album version of "Orphans no Namida" at the 66th NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen, live from the Nagasaki Peace Park.[4]
