[Anime Songs for High Scores] Carefully Selected Easy-to-Sing Karaoke Tracks (1–10)
Limit-Break x SurvivorNEW!Kiyoshi Hikawa
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.
Promise of SunflowersNEW!Motohiro Hata
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.
A Cruel Angel's ThesisNEW!Yoko Takahashi
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!
[Anisong Picks for High Scores] Carefully Selected Easy-to-Sing Karaoke Tracks (11–20)
Ojamajo Carnival!!NEW!MAHO-do
Ojamajo Carnival!! is an upbeat, bright, and energetic song.
It’s surprisingly popular at karaoke, and I sing it often too! When you listen, it can sound tricky, but once you actually try singing it, the range isn’t that demanding; as long as you lock into the rhythm, it’s an anime song where high scores are easy to aim for.
That said, the tempo is fast, so the lyrics will end up being a bit of a tongue-twister.
If you move your body too much to keep the beat, you might slip off, so it might help to keep a slightly forward-leaning posture! Interestingly, Masaaki Endoh, known for his tokusatsu songs, has also covered Ojamajo Carnival!! His version is pretty rock-heavy—so much so that from the intro you might be like, “Huh?” because it barely resembles the original—but men should definitely give Endoh’s version a listen!
lilacNEW!Mrs. GREEN APPLE
It was selected as the opening theme for the TV anime “Boukyaku Battery,” which began airing in April 2024.
This track marks Mrs.
Green Apple’s first anime tie-in in about five years, and its exhilarating youthfulness matches the series’ worldview, becoming a major talking point.
The A and B melodies are a bit unconventional, but you’ll be fine once you listen closely! Within Mrs.
Green Apple’s catalog, the song sits in a range that can be sung in chest voice, making it a great pick for those who want to aim for a score of 90 or higher without strain.
Also, the last chorus features repeated falsetto.
Imitating Omori’s facial expression by keeping your eyebrows raised helps you switch smoothly between chest voice and falsetto.
Finally, use plenty of breath and sing without forcing it.
OrangeNEW!SPYAIR
It became a massive hit as the theme song for the 2024 film Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle.
The same track was also chosen as the theme song for TBS Television and BS-TBS’s Volleyball Nations League 2024, powerfully expressing the passion of young people who devote their youth to volleyball, and marking a revival of the long-standing collaboration between SPYAIR and Haikyu!!.
It’s a rock ballad characteristic of SPYAIR, with easy-to-catch pitches that help you score steadily in karaoke.
The melody is basically structured so you can sing each phrase carefully.
It builds toward the latter half, and the vocal melody changes slightly in the final chorus, so it’s a good idea to review that part thoroughly.
God knows…NEW!Haruhi Suzumiya (Aya Hirano)
“God knows…,” the in-story song from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, is famous for the cultural festival live performance.
It gets the crowd going from the very first note, and it’s an anime song that looks cool if you can sing it! The structure is easy to follow, so focus on expressiveness.
First, for the A verse, it’s best to sing quietly and calmly, with clear vowel articulation.
For the B verse, you’re heading toward the chorus, so sing without forcing your voice.
When the melody changes, lift your eyebrows to get ready.
Ride that momentum into the chorus, but be careful not to shout.
Aim to “project into the distance” rather than “yell.” In the last chorus, the key changes and the pitch goes up, so keep the same mindset—“send your voice even farther”! If you just watch the pitch bar honestly, you should be able to aim for a high score!
