Lyrics

瞳と瞳が合えば 事件のはじまり その言葉を尾行する 手と手が触れて ほら　急展開 謎がまた解けてく 恋に落ちたらね 女の子はみんな カリスマ名探偵 あなたのことならね 全部　わかっちゃう ちいさな嘘でも 抜き足差し足 心に忍び込む ときどきミステイク どきどきミステリー 抜き足差し足 あなたに忍び込む わたしはミスラブリーン どぅか　ご用心!

Trivia

• Originally, episode 13 of Persona 4 The Animation was going to use the regular ending, and the Luvlene theme song only played in the background when Nanako was watching the TV show. Chie and Luvlene's voice actress, Yui Horie, made a comment about wanting to hear the Luvlene song used as the ending after how much work was put into it, and the staff made it happen in under a week.
