But…Bonchi de ichi’i

Because [Number One in the Basin]
But...Bonchi de ichi'i

A punk rock band made up of comedians, Bonchi de Ichii.

The members are Coccy and Rossi from Yasei Bakudan, Terumoto Goto from Football Hour, and Takashi Kaneshige, a former comedian who is now a manga artist.

The lyrics, true to Coccy’s style, are crafted with a surreal touch, while the melody is a super cool punk rock sound.

That contrast is irresistible, so it’s sure to get everyone hyped at karaoke!

double playAitani Reina

Reina Aitani, who started her solo career in 2019 after her idol days.

In this track released in 2020, the flow sung with her sweet voice feels so smooth.

Born from the live event “NANIWAdelic,” which fuses comedy and music, this song is an answer track to Mitorizu Moriyama’s “Shoban,” with lyrics and composition by Reina Aitani herself.

It’s a love song that weaves in a baseball short hop and a double play.

Rap can sometimes be a savior in life.

Those love-filled lyrics are wonderful, too.

Yoyogi ParkMayumura Chiaki

It’s a heartwarming song that makes you once again feel happy about the time you spend with friends and loved ones.

The singer is Chiaki Mayumura, a singer-songwriter who calls herself a singer-songwriter/track-making idol, and who also runs her own management company while performing.

The lyrics portray a child bewildered by an irregular situation—getting interviewed while eating an ehomaki in Yoyogi Park—and you can’t help but feel all warm and fuzzy.

Hearing this track might make many people spontaneously look back on their childhood and think, “I used to love making and eating ehomaki at home.”

DIES IN NO TIMEFukuyama Jun

TV anime “The Vampire Dies in No Time” Non-Credit OP
DIES IN NO TIMEFukuyama Jun

When it comes to Halloween, vampires are an essential motif.

The Vampire Dies in No Time is a comedy that portrays a gently offbeat world featuring vampires and ghosts.

The theme song is performed by Jun Fukuyama, the voice actor who plays the protagonist Draluc.

It opens with a dazzling, jazz-tinged sound reminiscent of a big band, and the overall vibe is lively and fun.

It captures both Draluc’s tendency to turn to ash at the slightest thing and his indomitable spirit that keeps trying to get back up even after setbacks.
