42 on the Oricon chart.
It was used as the opening theme for the TV anime Sergeant Keroro.
It was also performed at that year’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen.
Fake (feat. Haruomi Usono, Mamoru Miyabi, Mane Kamishiraishi)Nise Akira
An exquisite pop song brimming with playfulness and euphoria.
It’s the major-label debut of Nise Akira—Hoshino Gen’s close ally (perhaps?)—released in June 2025.
With the unique backstory of an April Fools’ joke turned reality, the track brilliantly captures the sparkle of the moment when a lie becomes true.
From its infuriatingly suave sound arrangement to the star-studded guest vocals, there’s plenty to savor.
Give it a careful listen!
Crocodile and ShampooMomoiro Kurōbā Zetto
It’s a song included on Momoiro Clover Z’s album Battle and Romance, released in July 2011.
It was used as the ending theme for the TV anime Double-J.
The album reached No.
2 on the Oricon chart.
JODAN JODANKaientai
This is a single by Kaientai released in July 1979, which peaked at No.
86 on the Oricon chart.
A different version was included on the album Wajin-den released in December of the same year.
Incidentally, it’s also the song that inspired the name of the Jordans.
Family Restaurant BomberSEX MACHINEGUNS
Although it’s time for the date, his girlfriend is late; the server keeps messing up the order; the food just won’t come… This song is a full-throttle, heavy metal outburst of a man’s feelings after his patience snaps—a gloriously silly track made in absolute earnest.
It’s a masterpiece by the metal group SEX MACHINEGUNS, led by ANCHANG from Ehime Prefecture, and it was included on their 1998 album “SEX MACHINEGUN.” The song also appears in the music games GUITARFREAKS & DrumMania and jubeat, where it has earned overwhelming support from game fans.
We recommend listening to it as your stress-relief partner while you wait for your special someone at a meeting spot—but maybe refrain from blasting it in a family restaurant!
[Gag Songs] Can’t Stop Laughing! A Collection of Japanese Comic Songs (41–50)
The Song of My Popular Phaseaidoringu!!!
A song by Idoling!!! that takes on the sudden arrival of a “moe period” (a surge in popularity or attractiveness), capturing a mindset that blends shyness with newfound confidence through a poppy sound and impeccable tempo.
While flustered by the intense attention from the opposite sex, the protagonist secretly delights in it—a situation portrayed with humor.
Like pulling a “fateful encounter” from a fortune cookie, the protagonist’s popularity graph is soaring.
Metaphors comparing this popularity boom to graphs, mountain ranges, and even sumo wrestling evoke laughter, making it a classic that symbolizes pop culture in the golden age of idols.
Released in January 2008 as a double A-side with their second single, Snow celebration, it reached No.
9 on the Oricon charts, marking the group’s first Top 10 entry.
Whether you long for your popularity peak, are in the thick of it, or look back on it nostalgically, this is a song anyone can relate to and laugh with.
Drifters’ tongue twistersZa Dorifutāzu
This is a fresh, humorous piece that fires off classic Japanese tongue twisters one after another over a funky groove.
Released in June 1981, the song is a comic number with lyrics by Chosuke Ikariya and music by Akihiko Takashima.
From “nama mugi, nama gome, nama tamago” to “tonari no takegaki take tatekaketa,” familiar tongue twisters are delivered with each Drifters member’s uniquely expressive voice and performance.
The inventive arrangement, which incorporates Wilson Pickett–style rhythms, also shines.
Included on the album “Drif no Hayakuchi Kotoba,” it was performed in the “Shonen Shojo Gasshodai” segment of TBS’s “Hachiji da yo! Zen’in Shugo.” It’s a purely fun track that makes you want to sing and play along with friends during school breaks.
