Anpanman Songs: List of Theme Songs, Insert Songs, and Character Songs (51–60)
Katsubushiman Flowing Songkatsubushiman (Inoue Kazuhiko)

This is a piece of music that expresses the world of Anpanman.
The lyrics brilliantly capture the characteristics of the character Katsubushiman, and the melody, which incorporates traditional Japanese elements, is captivating.
The lyrics were written by Takashi Yanase and the music was composed by Michel Kama.
Set in Edo, it depicts the sounds of swordplay and the figure of the white-masked hero fluttering in the night wind, with elements throughout that evoke samurai and period dramas.
Among the songs in the Anpanman repertoire, this track stands out as especially memorable and is loved by many people.
It’s enjoyable not only for children but also for adults.
Yama-raised Kamameshi-donkamameshidon (Yamazaki Kōichi)

Kōichi Yamadera, who’s so active in the Anpanman series that it’s hard to keep track of all the roles he plays, sings Kamameshidon’s theme song, “Yama-sodachi Kamameshidon.” His performance is truly faithful to the character.
It’s an enka-style number that captures the feel of Kamameshidon’s somewhat accented speech.
Komasubiman’s Energetic Journeykomusubiman (Hayashibara Megumi)

This is the theme song of Komusubiman, a bite-sized rice ball who admires Omusubiman, and whose cute appearance has made him popular.
Komusubiman’s charm lies in how he keeps striving to become a full-fledged hero, and his earnest efforts may resonate with us as we work hard every day at our jobs or studies.
It’s an earnest theme song for someone who lives earnestly.
Tendonman Boast Songtendonman (Sakamoto Chinatsu)

Tendonman is strongly associated with appearing as part of the “Donburi Man Trio” alongside Katsudonman and Kamameshidon, but as an individual character, his very first appearance was actually in Episode 1, making him a character with quite a long history.
This theme song sets to music the phrase he (or the trio) sings when they make their entrance, and many of you may find it very familiar.
Stumble! Baikinmanbaikinnman (Nakao Ryūsei)

This is a humorous song sung by Baikinman, Anpanman’s archenemy.
Though he’s a villain, it’s hard to dislike him, and the song is full of his charm.
His constant failures are expressed through a lively melody and the refrain “Nanda nanda nanda.” It’s a track that both children and adults can enjoy.
Takashi Nakamura’s distinctive singing style is also captivating.
It’s a great pick when you want to liven things up at karaoke.
Loved as a character song from the anime “Go! Anpanman” since 1988, it’s perfect not only for Baikinman fans but also when you need a change of pace.
Give it a listen, and it’s sure to bring a smile to anyone’s face.
