Connect (コネクト?) is a song performed by female pop duo ClariS, released as a single in 2011. The song was used as the opening theme song for the original anime series of Puella Magi Madoka Magica (魔法少女まどか☆マギカ Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magika?).
A cover version sung by the 2B-Waves duo, HARUKA and MAI, was playable in pop'n music 20 fantasia, while the original version was added as a downloadable song for ポップンリズミン, where it was bundled in the ClariS Pack (ClariS パック?).
コネクト received a brand new EASY chart in pop'n music Sunny Park.
The cover version by 2B Waves was removed in pop'n music ラピストリア on December 3, 2014.
Lyrics
交わした約束忘れないよ 目を閉じ確かめる 押し寄せた闇 振り払って進むよ いつになったらなくした未来を 私ここでまた見ることできるの？ 溢れ出した不安の影を何度でも裂いて この世界歩んでこう とめどなく刻まれた 時は今始まり告げ 変わらない思いをのせ 閉ざされた扉開けよう 目覚めた心は走り出した未来を描くため 難しい道で立ち止まっても 空はきれいな青さでいつも待っててくれる だから怖くない もう何があっても挫けない
kawashita yakusoku wasurenai yo me wo toji tashikameru oshiyoseta yami furiharatte susumu yo itsu ni nattara nakushita mirai wo watashi koko de mata miru koto dekiru no? afuredashita fuan no kage wo nando demo saite kono sekai ayun de kou tomedonaku kizamareta toki ha ima hajimari tsuge kawaranai omoi wo nose tozasareta tobira akeyou mezameta kokoro ha hashiridashita mirai wo egaku tame muzukashii michi de tachidomatte mo sora ha kirei na aosa de itsumo mattete kureru dakara kowakunai mou nani ga atte mo kujikenai

I won't forget the promises we exchanged I close my eyes to affirm it I will shake off the overwhelming darkness to move forward When will I ever be able To see the lost future from here again? Let's move forward in this world By shattering the overflowing shadows of anxiety again and again Time now begins to tick away incessantly Let's open the closed door While carrying our unchanging feelings My heart awakes in order to depict the future Even if I come to a halt on a tough road The beautiful blue sky always waits for me Therefore I'm not afraid I won't be disheartened anymore no matter what happens
