I want to tell you with all my heart!Mimori Suzuko
Speaking of classic costumes, witches are a staple—so how about a witch-themed anime song? “Seiippai, Tsutaetai!” sung by voice actress Suzuko Mimori, was released as a single in 2014.
It was used as the opening theme for the anime Majimoji Rurumo, in which Mimori also plays the lead role, Rurumo.
It’s a lively, cute tune—a catchy song that can put a smile on your face all by itself.
Mimori’s free and easy vocals are wonderful.
No matter how tired you are, this song will help you keep going.
My WingsNakashima Masami
This song was used as the ending theme for the fourth installment of the anime series Ojamajo Doremi, titled Ojamajo Doremi Dokka~n!.
Listening to it brings back a sense of nostalgia, reminding you of how the characters live as witches in the anime and filling you with happiness.
It’s an anime song that’s perfect for Halloween!
Little Meg the Witch GirlMaekawa Yōko
This is the theme song of the anime “Majokko Megu,” which features Megu, a witch who came from the demon world.
The song is performed by Yoko Maekawa, a singer known for many anime songs.
The lyrics feel like a teenage girl trying to act grown-up, and the contrast with her confident, commanding vocals makes the song especially enjoyable.
GHOST SWEEPERHarada Chie
This is the opening theme of ‘GS Mikami: Gokuraku Daisakusen!!,’ where ghost sweepers who exterminate yokai and evil spirits take center stage.
It’s also the debut single of the singer who performed it, Chie Harada.
The provocative lyrics and mysterious melody are a perfect match for the series—and for Halloween.
Because you can’t see it, right!?Yotsuya Miko (CV: Amamiya Sora)
As images associated with Halloween, motifs like ghosts often come to mind, but ghosts are strange beings that ordinary people can’t see, right? Mieruko-chan is a work that tells the story of a girl who suddenly becomes able to see such otherworldly entities.
The theme song is performed by voice actress Sora Amamiya in her role as the protagonist, Miko Yotsuya.
While the song mainly carries a bright and refreshing atmosphere, it also incorporates elements that sound as if someone is frightened, which seems to express the story’s theme of sensing these strange beings yet trying to ignore them.
The atmosphere of the work, which balances both comedy and horror, comes through clearly in the music as well.
