"Gate (Sore wa Akatsuki no you ni)" (Japanese: GATE (それは暁のように);, "Gate (It Looks Like the Dawn)") is a song recorded by Japanese rock Kisida Kyoudan & The Akebosi Rockets. It was released as the group's first single in two years by Warner Bros. Entertainment and their subsidiary label Warner Home Video on July 29, 2015. The lyrics were written by Kisida and the music and arrangement were created by the band. Musically, "Gate (Sore wa Akatsuki no you ni)" is a rock song that features guitars, drums, and bass guitars in its instrumentation. An alternative version with different lyrics and slightly edited composition was released in January 2016, under the title "Gate II (Sekai wo Koete)".

Upon its release, it received positive reviews from music critics. Some complimented the composition, whilst the rest praised the production and commercial appeal. Commercially, the song was moderately successful in Japan, peaking at number 17 on the Oricon Singles Chart and made it their third consecutive top 20 entry. An accompanying music video featured the band singing in a warehouse, surrounded with construction tape and ornaments. To promote the single, it was used as the opening theme song for the first season of Japanese anime television series, Gate: Jieitai Kanochi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri.
