[Anime Songs for High Scores] Carefully Selected Easy-to-Sing Karaoke Tracks (1–10)
Limit-Break x SurvivorHikawa Kiyoshi
It’s the opening theme of Dragon Ball Super, a classic anison track packed with the same momentum and power as the anime itself.
The singer is Kiyoshi Hikawa, which surprised me at first since I didn’t have that image of him.
The overall vocal range is quite narrow at F#3–F#4, which should be comfortable for male singers.
However, because similar notes continue throughout, maintaining consistency is important.
The chorus has many sustained notes, so you can rack up points quickly there.
Keep an eye on the pitch bar and hold the notes all the way to the end.
Moonlight LegendDALI
Moonlight Densetsu, known as the opening theme of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, has a simple, memorable melody line and a vocal range that seems easy for anyone to sing.
If you sing too flatly from the verse into the chorus, the high notes in the chorus might feel tight and your voice could crack.
When you sing, try to focus on producing a bright tone.
If you can keep that, you should be able to move smoothly when the melody changes and stay on pitch more easily.
In any case, be mindful of carefully tracing the melody!
DoraemonHoshino Gen
Gen Hoshino’s Doraemon theme song is loved by people of all ages.

In the chorus, where the “do” sounds continue, it’s very important to lock into the rhythm.
The sections that share the same rhythm and timing are just as important.
It’s best to pronounce the words with a light, detailed delivery rather than too crisply.
In the pre-chorus (B-melody), projecting your voice with a big, expansive feel will enhance your expressiveness.
Try singing with an upbeat, fun energy!
Promise of SunflowersHata Motohiro
Himawari no Yakusoku, popular as a Doraemon movie theme song, gives the impression that a wide range of people sing it.
The overall vocal range is D#3 to A#4, so men should be able to handle it without strain if they sing calmly.
Since it’s a ballad, the melody line is simple and easy to remember, and the more carefully you sing, the more accurately you can hit the notes—making it a good choice for scoring systems.
There are many long tones, so if you focus on the pitch bar and sustain to the end, your score will go up.
For the chorus’s highest note, A#4, lift your facial muscles and aim to produce it easily without forcing or belting—think of delivering it lightly and gently.
RPGSEKAI NO OWARI
In 2013, it was the theme song for the movie Crayon Shin-chan: Very Tasty! B-class Gourmet Survival!!.
It has a bright, positive melody with a straightforward pitch line.
The tempo is steady, making it very compatible with scoring systems—perfect for high scores among anime songs.
Since it’s not a belting type of song, using your breath lightly as if singing gently should make it easier overall.
Keep your eyebrows raised so your head resonates, and try mimicking vocalist Fukase’s facial expressions! It should make it easier to catch the pitch and sing with a stable voice.
A Cruel Angel’s ThesisTakahashi Yoko
A nationally beloved anime song across generations, “A Cruel Angel’s Thesis.” Its melody line is simple, so it pairs perfectly with scoring systems.
In the A section, the pauses are crucial—don’t rush.
In the B section, the melody flows on, which can make breath timing feel tricky, but if you sing with the image of releasing your voice little by little, you’ll conserve breath and it won’t feel strenuous.
The highest note in the chorus, C5, is one you probably won’t hit accurately without some momentum.
Imagine projecting your voice far into the distance and really let it out—that’s about right! When my students adopt that mindset, they tell me, “The note came out! That felt great!” Give it a try and keep that in mind!
Dan Dan Kokoro HikaretekuFIELD OF VIEW
DAN DAN Kokoro Hikareteku, famous as the theme of Dragon Ball GT, is an exceptionally easy-to-sing, high-scoring song among 90s anime-song × J-pop rock tracks! The overall vocal range is G#2 to A4, and the song starts right off with the chorus, so the first note is crucial since it sits a bit on the higher side.
As a band-style track, it should be easy to lock into the rhythm.
From the very beginning, focus on projecting your voice and aim it far forward.
It’s very important to prepare your voice as if taking a running start.
Since the melody generally climbs higher with each phrase, it’s best to sing with a growing sense of momentum.
