[2026] Recommended for Men in Their 40s! A Selection of Anime Songs to Sing at Karaoke (21–30)
Cyborg 009Tōkyō Maisutā Jingā
A very serious cyborg anime.
I always felt it was more for adults than for children.
The theme song is stylish with a jazzy vibe, so now that I’m an adult, I can recommend it as an anime song that’s easy to sing without any trouble.
Dr. Slump Arale-chanMizumori Ado
The eternal gag anime, Arale-chan.
Every character is incredibly striking and funny, and it was an anime that made you laugh every week without fail.
The theme song is also enhanced by Ado Mizumori’s cute voice, which brings out the charm of the track.
I love Arale-chan.

Fist of the North Starkurisutaru kingu
A serious anime with the theme song sung by an artist called Crystal King.
Wasn’t it around this time that having artists perform anime songs became the norm? The song fits the anime’s image perfectly—capturing a cool, mature vibe and painting it in a very wild way.
Theme of Lupin the ThirdYū & Ekusupurōjon Bando
By now, it’s an all-time classic—there’s hardly anyone who doesn’t know this song.
It’s a famous tune used for cheering at high school baseball games and as background music.
While the original is instrumental, there’s also a version with lyrics that was used as a theme song, so be sure to try singing it at karaoke.
Jarinko ChieNakayama Chinatsu
A heartwarming Kansai-style anime.
It’s an adaptation of a serialized manga that became an anime, and the bold personalities of Chie-chan from the horumon shop and her old man are hilarious.
I don’t think there’s any other anime that makes ordinary everyday life this entertaining.
If there were a horumon joint like this, I’d want to go every day!
City HunterKohiruimaki Kahoru
It’s a very stylish, grown-up anime that features the hit artist Kahoru Kohiruimaki.
The song was also a big hit and fits the anime’s image perfectly, so it’s essentially inseparable from the work itself—you even get the anime visuals in karaoke.
GO!!!FLOW
GO!!! by FLOW, one of their signature songs and the opening theme for the anime NARUTO.
With its driving momentum, it’s a staple in their live shows and feels very band-oriented.
The song structure builds excitement—verse (A) to pre-chorus (B) to chorus—making it a very satisfying listen.
The vocal range, D#3 to B4, is accessible for the average male singer, but be cautious: the pitch rises slightly at the start of the B section, so avoid forcing your voice and straining your throat.
At a brisk tempo of 135 BPM, it’s highly rhythmic, and the chorus features FLOW’s signature rap.
Since FLOW has two vocalists, try trading lines with a partner or getting the crowd involved when you sing it!
