Ninja Hattari-kun

♬ Ninja Hattari – Tempalay

Let me introduce Ninja Hattari-kun, which also serves as the theme song for the WOWOW original drama I Want to Hold Aono-kun So Badly I Could Die.

Tempalay’s Ninja Hattari-kun features a cool sound, and a key point is that the lyrics include ninjutsu techniques.

When practicing with children, it’s a good idea to use instruments like whistles to highlight key movements.

The rhythm is complex, so this is a recommended idea for preschoolers.

Let’s showcase the children at their best! Presenting “Shi Shi Shi no Nobi Ashi.” When you think of ninjas, you imagine various techniques for battling enemies, like shuriken throwing and concealment, right? This time, let’s try “Shi Shi Shi no Nobi Ashi,” which focuses on stealthy footsteps.

From the very beginning of the song, it’s sure to capture the children’s interest! By having them perform each movement slowly and quietly, you can highlight a charming contrast with their usual energetic selves—highly recommended!

Ninnin Nintama Ondo

Set in the Sengoku period, the story of Ninjutsu Academy—centered on the trio of Rantarō, Kirimaru, and Shinbei—is hugely popular! From the long-beloved TV anime “Nintama Rantarō,” we present “Nin-nin Nintama Ondo.” Many teachers and parents likely watched “Nintama Rantarō” when they were young.

In recent years, it has gained popularity not only among children but also among adults.

The choreography for “Nin-nin Nintama Ondo” can be adapted to suit children.

Try dancing while getting into character!

The key is its exciting, upbeat feel! Let me introduce “Itazura Ninpōchō.” Some children just love playing pranks, don’t they? This time, let’s do a cute dance to “Itazura Ninpōchō,” which has mischief as its theme! It’s a good idea to adapt the choreography to the children’s ages and interests.

Since it’s up-tempo with a unique sound, a comical choreography will fit well.

Dive in with a sense of excitement and have fun!

Hattori-kun Ondo

From the ninja-themed anime Ninja Hattori-kun, we present the song Hattori-kun Ondo.

Ninja Hattori-kun is a Japanese gag manga in which Hattori leaves his village to continue his training in Tokyo, where he gets caught up in various incidents.

Let’s try dancing the Hattori-kun Ondo from the beloved national anime Ninja Hattori-kun.

The key points are its tune, which evokes an ondo performed at events like Bon Odori, and lyrics that weave in ninja-specific episodes!

This song by Toshihiko Shinzawa is a lively cheer anthem that energizes children’s sports days.

It portrays the participating children as heroes and cheers on their shining moments.

Released in June 2007, the track is included on the album “Toshihiko Shinzawa’s Sparkling Sports Day.” Designed with sports day in mind, its bright, positive melody and rhythm bring a sense of unity to the entire venue.
