Altima is a three-member Japanese musical group that formed in 2011 and is signed to Warner Home Video. The group consists of fripSide's Satoshi Yaginuma as the composer and producer, Maon Kurosaki as the main vocalist, and Move's Mototaka Segawa as the rapper. Altima's released their debut single "I'll Believe" in December 2011, which is used as the first ending theme to the anime Shakugan no Shana Final.

After initially becoming interested in the music of the trance and pop duo fripSide, Mototaka Segawa of the band Move approached fripSide's Satoshi Yaginuma at the Animelo Summer Live concert in August 2010 wanting to collaborate with him. Around the same time, Segawa took notice of Maon Kurosaki, who at the time had just released her debut album H.O.T.D. under Geneon in September 2010. Segawa contacted Kurosaki through Yaginuma, because fripSide is also under Geneon. When Yaginuma received the request to create an ending theme for the 2011 anime TV series Shakugan no Shana Final, he thought this was the perfect chance to collaborate with Segawa and Kurosaki.
