"Sekai Eiyushi" (世界英雄史; lit. "World History of Heroes") is Pink Lady's 18th single, released on May 21, 1980. At the time of the single's release, the duo returned to Japan after failing to make a mark in the U.S. with their ill-fated variety show. At the same time, rumors started circulating about Pink Lady's disbandment, which was denied by the duo until they made an official announcement in a press conference on September 1.[1][2]

The single sold 150,000 copies.[3][4]
