Touching Anime Ballads That Make You Cry [Moving & Heart-Wrenching]

DancerFukkun:)Tatsuki Fukuda
Primarily active in Tokyo, I have experience as a backup dancer for artists, a music video dancer, and a commercial dancer. I continue to work as a dancer while also engaging in article production. After discovering Michael Jackson in junior high school, I began dancing in my second year of high school. Since starting dance, in addition to the J-Pop and Japanese rock I had been listening to, I began exploring Western R&B, rap, alternative music, and other tracks commonly used for dance. In elementary school, I spent three years in a choir, and because I love singing, I often go to karaoke for fun. These days, I enjoy a wide range of music, from Japanese rock and rap to K-pop.

I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

Tear-Jerking Anime Song Ballads Special [Heartwarming & Bittersweet] (71–80)

Our summer dreamYamashita Tatsuro

Our Summer Dream / Tatsuro Yamashita (Cover)

Our summer dreamYamashita Tatsuro

It’s the theme song of the film “Summer Wars.” The lyrics, filled with a resolve to protect you forever, are striking.

Tatsuro Yamashita’s rich, warm vocals are truly soothing.

Perhaps I’m influenced by the film itself, but it’s an anime song I want to listen to in the summer.

My Only Place

My Only Placesufia

This song is the ending theme of the TV anime “Matoi the Sacred Slayer.” Sphere is a super girls’ unit consisting of four female voice actresses: Minako Kotobuki, Ayahi Takagaki, Haruka Tomatsu, and Aki Toyosaki.

The anime tells the story of Matoi Sumeragi, a second-year middle schooler working part-time as a shrine maiden, who borrows the power of the gods to exorcize evil spirits in order to restore her peaceful everyday life.

The earnest way Matoi is portrayed in the anime, combined with the song’s lyrics about “walking toward the light of tomorrow,” makes it a moving track.
