Uma to Shika

is the 10th single by Kenshi Yonezu. It was released on September 11, 2019.

Background "Uma to Shika" is the theme song of TBS television drama No Side Manager. The single features two B-side songs: "Spirits of the Sea" (海の幽霊, Umi no Yūrei), used as the theme song of Children of the Sea, and "Deshomasho" (でしょましょ, Probably).

The title of the song (馬と鹿- "Uma to shika") is a play on words - putting the two kanjis which make up the word "baka" (馬鹿- "Stupid") with the particle "to" (と- and) between them, to make the phrase “horse and deer”.

Preview events were held for "Spirits of the Sea" and "Uma to Shika".
