For the ending theme, "Gentle Afternoon" (やさしい午後, Yasashii Gogo?) is used for the first twelve episodes, and "The Day It Begins" (はじまりの日, Hajimari no Hi?) is used for episodes 13-23 and episode 25. Both songs are performed by Minawo. Episode 24 uses the song "Caged Bird", by Shunichi Miyamoto, for its ending, while the final episode of the series uses Miyamoto's song "Guidepost"
