From cute to cool. Masterpieces and recommended songs from uniquely individual girl bands (61–70)
Fluffy TimeHōkago Tī Taimu
A girls’ band credited under each character’s name, performed by the voice actors from the hugely popular anime K-On!.
They have released the anime’s opening and ending themes as well as insert songs, and became a hot topic for playing instruments live at events as the voice actors themselves.
KAKUHENGacharic Spin
This band features a charming visual appeal, with both former and current idols among its members.
But that’s not all—they’re rapidly gaining popularity for their technical musicianship and their powerfully entertaining, ultra-hot live shows! The music created by the six members delivers a super cool sound that goes beyond the boundaries of idol groups.
Fuzzy NavelConton Candy
It’s a pleasant track where the warm, bittersweet mood melts together, imbued with the sweet scent of oranges.
It elegantly portrays the sweet, bitter, and aching emotions born from love by likening them to the taste of a cocktail.
While the melody feels refreshing, it’s quintessentially Conton Candy in the way it sings of the complexities of a loving heart.
Released in April 2023, this work is slated to be included on the album “melt pop,” scheduled for release in 2024.
The lyrics beautifully balance a sweet, love-song ambiance with a mature, narrative quality.
With a nostalgic atmosphere and an addictive melody, it also trended on social media.
Bye-bye, farewell★thank youkonkonjanpu
This is a song that conjures up a scene of parting—ephemeral yet beautiful, like a sparkler at summer’s end.
The work marked Konkon Jump’s re-major debut in August 2007, was used as the ending theme for TBS’s “Sasuke Mania,” and was later included on the album “Life★Is★Beautiful.” Many listeners will relate to the sadness of no longer being able to say “See you tomorrow,” and the warm wish for the other person’s future that remains nonetheless.
It’s a youth anthem that both reminds us of the importance of our memories and what we hold dear, and gives us the courage to step onto the next stage.
ZenBAND-MAID
A powerful track that portrays the challenge of breaking new ground.
Composed by BAND-MAID and released in January 2025, it was selected as the opening theme for MAPPA’s original TV anime “Zenshu.” Its energetic, aggressive rock sound is incredibly satisfying to listen to.
The lyrics, themed around “change,” “challenge,” and “self-discovery,” are deeply connected to the anime’s story and evoke the characters’ growth.
It’s a must-listen for anyone looking to discover a new version of themselves!
fategoomiey
In 2023, the bassist and drummer officially joined, and the girls’ band goomiey restarted as a three-piece.
Their first digital single in the new lineup, “Unmei” (“Destiny”), is a high-energy track with a straightforward guitar rock sound.
The message, imbued with gratitude toward the fans who supported them during the solo project era, is sure to move even those who aren’t already fans.
It’s a heart-stirring rock tune packed with the charm of the reborn goomiey.
I won’t forget it.kessoku bando
Despite being a fictional band born from an anime, Kessoku Band has become hugely popular, drawing in both Japanese and Western rock listeners.
Based on a hit manga and adapted into a TV anime in 2022, Bocchi the Rock! instantly won over not only anime fans but also music lovers, as mentioned earlier.
Framed as the debut album by Kessoku Band as they appear in the show, the self-titled album released in 2022 became an extraordinary hit and a major talking point.
From among Kessoku Band’s tracks, this piece will introduce “I Won’t Forget.” It’s an undisputed killer tune, performed first during the cultural festival scene in episode 12 of the anime.
It works perfectly as a cute slice of girls’ rock, and the restless, roaming guitar lines brilliantly capture Kessoku Band’s signature feel.
Be sure to pay attention to the lyrics as well: they explore complicated feelings about youth without getting too heavy, yet without tipping too far into positivity—striking a finely balanced tone.
