Fukuyama Seasonal Song ~This Is Fukuyama, Come On Over~Yokoyama Chie
This is a song by Chie Yokoyama, who was also active as part of the unit “Yamada Katsutenai Wink” with Kuniko Yamada.
Grandly unveiled at the Fukuyama Civic Hall in 1994, this piece can be considered a local song that weaves the scenery of Fukuyama into its lyrics, and it is even referred to as the “phantom” Fukuyama city song.
Brave Fight！macchotenguman
This is the theme song of Aki Warrior Maple Kaiser, a local hero familiar to children in Hiroshima Prefecture that aired on TSS TV Shin-Hiroshima, and its guitar-driven rock—perfect for a tokusatsu hero show—is sure to fill our hearts with courage.
REDB’z
A cheer song written by B’z for pitcher Hiroki Kuroda, who returned to the Hiroshima Toyo Carp after eight years.
Tak Matsumoto’s banjo in the intro evokes the image of a samurai making a comeback, and Koshi Inaba’s sincere playfulness—where the first letters of the chorus lyrics spell out “RED”—adds color to Kuroda’s entrance.

Junji Fujie is a singer-songwriter based mainly in Hiroshima.
He has written many songs for other artists and is energizing Hiroshima’s music scene.
This song is widely known as the ending theme for the Hiroshima TV program “Susume! Sports Genkimaru.”
Shimanami LongingKatte ni Kankō Kyōkai
This is a song by the duo of Jun Miura and Hajime Anzai.
The concept of the unit is their characteristically freewheeling approach of visiting various regions and creating local songs on the spot, and this track was released as part of that series in a Hiroshima version.
