[Gets You Pumped] Fun Japanese dance tracks. A special selection of fun dance songs (1–10)
Sorry for being cute (feat. Kapi)HONEY WORKS
Let me introduce you to “Kawaikute Gomen,” which has gone hugely viral on YouTube and TikTok.
This track was created by the creator unit HoneyWorks as a character song for the anime “Heroines Run the Show: The Unpopular Girl and the Secret Task.” Its emphasis on cuteness and lyrics that highlight the importance of individuality have generated a big response.
There are also countless choreography videos for this song.
Many of them are easy to copy and super cute, so be sure to check them out for inspiration!
Strong Wind Slicked-Back (feat. Kaai Yuki)Yukopi
A song brimming with humor about everyday little happenings is creating a big buzz on social media.
Produced by Yukopi, the track captures the all-too-relatable experience of stepping outside and instantly ending up with slicked-back hair, set to a catchy melody and rhythm.
Since its release in March 2023, its popularity has only grown, topping Billboard JAPAN’s “Niconico VOCALOID SONGS TOP 20,” among other achievements.
It was also featured in a Nissin Cup Noodles commercial, expanding its recognition across a wide audience.
Social media is full of posts inspired by its surreal music video.
It’s the perfect song for year-end parties and wedding receptions, and its easy-to-learn choreography makes it ideal for getting everyone hyped—even first-timers.
Heavy rotationNEW!AKB48
When it comes to songs from the Heisei era that represent Japanese idols, “Heavy Rotation” is the one.
Its choreography focuses more on arm movements than full-body action, so there aren’t many difficult dance techniques—its approachable, anyone-can-dance style is part of the charm.
In particular, the beginning of the chorus is a series of poses broken into several counts, making it easy for beginners to memorize.
For example, on the lyric “boku wa” (“I”), you point to yourself with your thumb; there are many moves closely tied to the lyrics, so beginners can enjoy dancing and learn it easily.
The difficulty level is low, and it’s a song you can have fun dancing to while riding the beat!

Single‑minded Cinderella!NEW!CUTIE STREET
CUTIE STREET’s “Hitamuki Cinderella” features choreography that fully showcases their unique cuteness.
Since hand movements are the main focus, the moves themselves aren’t difficult, but they are a bit detailed, so some beginners might find them a little challenging.
However, there are playful actions and repetitive sequences, so you’ll definitely be able to learn it! The key is to firmly memorize the coordination between the chorus steps and the hand movements.
It’s common to focus on either the feet or the hands and let the other get sloppy, so make sure to ingrain the movements in your body and give it a try!
mirrorNEW!FRUITS ZIPPER
FRUITS ZIPPER’s song “Kagami” is a track you can have fun dancing to as long as you can ride the rhythm.
The choreography matches the song’s tempo and counts, so if you don’t overthink it and just move with the music and imitate the moves, you might find you can pick it up surprisingly smoothly.
As the title suggests, the theme is a mirror, so the move before the chorus where you open a hand mirror is very catchy and easy to remember.
The chorus choreography, with cat-like hand motions, is also easy to learn, so even beginners should be able to pick it up quickly.
There are many repeated movements throughout the song, so definitely give it a try and dance along.
Blue JeansNEW!HANA
Because the song has a gentle melody with a slightly slower tempo, the choreography is also relaxed.
The steps at the beginning of the chorus and the hand-focused moves that evoke clock hands during the “1 a.m.” lyric are easy for beginners to learn.
In the final chorus near the end of the song, the choreography applies rhythm-keeping and up-and-down movements, so I think it’s easy to learn across the entire track.
The lyrics also include many emotional actions and gestures, which become key points.
Be sure to learn the whole song and try dancing to it!
Do Re Mi So La Si DoNEW!Hinatazaka46
Hinatazaka46’s song “Doremisolasido” is a track that even beginners can perfectly copy.
Because it’s performed by a large group, the focus is on formations and movement, and the choreography itself mainly uses hand motions.
In the memorable “Do-Re-Mi” part of the chorus, the moves are simple—raising and lowering the shoulders alternately—and the emphasis is on rhythm-keeping, which is fundamental to dance.
Also, the step at the beginning of the chorus is the Charleston, a basic step that’s taught early on when learning dance, so once beginners pick it up, they’re sure to have fun dancing it!
