"Re:Re:" (pronounced ar-ee-ar-ee)[1] is a song by Japanese rock band Asian Kung-Fu Generation from their second full-length studio album, Sol-fa. In 2016, they re-recorded Sol-fa and new version of "Re:Re:" was released as the lead single on March 16, 2016. The 2016 version of "Re:Re:" was used as the opening for the anime Erased.[2] The song was ranked 2nd on fans request for band's 10th anniversary live setlist on September 14, 2013.[3]

In 2024, a cover of the song by Kessoku Band was used as the ending theme to the second part of the Bocchi the Rock! compilation film which was itself titled "Re:Re:", marking the second time the anime band has covered a song for the anime after "Korogaru Iwa, Kimi ni Asa ga Furu" was used for the TV series.[4]
