Answer

Answer, performed by no3b, is the first ending theme for the anime Beelzebub. It was used from Episode 1 through Episode 10.

The original span was to be from Episode 1 to Episode 12 (now Episode 10), but following the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, two episodes have skipped airing, while all other releases, including the release of the next two episodes and the new ending, remained on schedule. Hence, Episode 10 is the last episode to feature this ending theme.

Lyrics
僕にはそれがひとつのAnswer

永遠に君を守リたいんだ.

近くにいるそれだけで

胸を苦しくさせるものは何だろう？

言葉では伝わらない

こんな熱い気持ちは初めてなんだ

でも 君は知らない （ずっと）

風がただ吹いてるだけ.

いつかのために愛があるなら

その日が来るまでこのままでいい

君の心が折れそうな時

運命のようにこの手 伸ばそう.

僕にはそれがひとつのAnswer

気づかせたくないせつなさの距離.

Romaji
Boku ni wa sore ga hitotsu no answer

Eien ni kimi wo mamoritai n da

Chikaku ni iru sore dakede

Mune wo kurushiku saseru mono wa nan darou?

Kotoba dewa tsutawaranai

Konna atsui kimochi wa hajimete nan da

Demo, kimi wa shiranai (Zutto)

Kaze ga tada fuiteru dake

Itsu ka no tame ni ai ga arunara

Sono hi ga kuru made kono mama de ii

Kimi no kokoro ga ore sou na toki

Unmei no you ni kono de nobasou

Boku ni wa sore ga hitotsu no answer

Kizukasetakunai setsunasa no kyori

English Translation
To me, there's only one answer

That I want to protect you forever.

Just being closed to you

What's with this painful feeling in my chests?

No words can describe

The burning feelings rising in me

However, you have not realized yet (never)

Just like a mere blowing wind.

If someday love comes again

Everything will be beautiful just as it was

As looking at your broken heart

I want to extend my hand to this destiny.

To me, there's only one answer

Please don't take this sore distance.

Modifications following the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami
Following the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, the opening and ending sequence for the series was modified for Episode 10 to remove all references of earthquakes, flooding and mass graves. These modifications include the following:
 * The scene where Oga is carrying Beelzebub and standing triumphantly over a large group of teenagers lying down on the ground had been modified to depict Oga's shadow on a barren ground cast by the sun in the background instead.
 * In another scene, Arandron is normally seen floating across a large body of water as Oga and Beelzebub watch him from the shore. Arandron had been edited out such that Oga and Beelzebub are merely staring at the water.
