In 2019, How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift? sent shockwaves through the anime industry in many ways.

Beyond its content, its incredibly impactful opening theme grabbed all the attention.

Even the title, “Onegai Muscle,” hints at a gag, but the catchy chorus that sticks in your head after just one listen—and the carefully crafted ensemble and song structure—make it an excellent anime song.

The fact that it launched Ai Fairouz, who played the heroine, into the spotlight alone makes it more than worthwhile.

Kaito Ishikawa’s light, witty interjections are also fantastic.

Nail it as a duet, and it’s guaranteed to hype up any crowd!

A masterpiece that feels like it’s climbed all the way to the status of a classic “gag” anison.

Used as the opening theme for the 2007 TV anime Lucky Star, it was a hit that astonishingly reached No.

2 on the Oricon chart in its first week of release.

Created by the golden duo also known from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya—lyrics by Aki Hata and composition/arrangement by Satoru Kosaki—the track blends funk and techno-inspired elements into a danceable beat, with Hata’s playful lyrics delivered rhythmically.

The impeccable balance is superb, and its brilliance remains undimmed by the passage of time.

In the anime’s final episode, the scene where the characters perform a full dance to the song during the in-story culture festival’s opening ceremony is nothing short of legendary.

Songs built around spoken lines can be really fun, right? One I especially recommend is “Maid Grand Rotation.” It’s the opening theme of the anime Akiba Maid War.

In the first half of the track, the characters from the show deliver classic maid café lines.

It might be hard to picture, so give it a listen first.

By the way, each character’s personality comes through in their lines, so watching the anime beforehand will make it even more exciting.

TV anime 'Kemono Friends' theme song: 'Welcome to Japari Park' / Doubutsu Biscuits × PPP
Welcome to Japari Parkdōbutsu bisuketsu × PPP

This is the opening theme song of the TV anime “Kemono Friends,” which sparked a tremendous boom in 2017.

Masayoshi Oishi, who has worked on many anime and game songs, wrote, composed, and arranged the track, crafting a masterpiece that represents late-2010s anisong and will likely continue to be talked about for years to come.

As evidenced by the high praise from top-tier musicians like Gen Hoshino and Ken Hirai, it transcends the boundaries of anime music and can be described as a quintessential J-pop song, brimming with the genre’s strengths.

If you listen without preconceptions, you might notice that fundamental appeal.

Big-faced!Funta

Fanta (Funta) – Big-Faced
Big-faced!Funta

This is the opening theme song of the TV anime Dr.

Slump that aired from 1997 to 1999, also known as the ’90s version of Dr.

Slump.

It was also the major debut single of the two-person unit Funta, which included UCO, who later debuted as a solo singer.

The lyrics are a perfect fit for a work packed with nonsensical gags, and the melody is one many people still can’t get out of their heads.

Listening again, the late-’90s digital punk-style arrangement and home-recording vibe feel very much of their time and are quite intriguing.

You could even call it a prototype of the so-called “denpa song” style that emerged in the 2000s and beyond.

It’s a quintessential denpa song and a classic example of a novelty track.

Released in 2015, it served as the opening theme for the first season of the TV anime “Himouto! Umaru-chan,” sung by Aimi Tanaka, who voices the heroine, Umaru Doma.

The lyrics and melody capture Umaru’s dual nature—her everyday public persona versus her at-home lifestyle—and Tanaka’s precise, fully committed performance is excellent.

The chiptune-style touches sprinkled throughout add a fun vibe that highlights Umaru’s love of games.

GET!! Dream & DREAMKagami Shou

Featuring characters with strikingly distinctive looks, “Gakuen Handsome” first appeared as a video created by students from the Department of Film at Tohoku University of Art and Design.

It later gained popularity on Niconico, was released as a doujin PC game, and in 2016, after a crowdfunding campaign, it was finally adapted into an anime.

The TV anime’s opening theme, “GET!! Yume & DREAM,” is an infamous track whose cheap-sounding arrangement, oddly refreshing lyrics and melody, and sweet vocals combine with the visuals to create a bizarre atmosphere.

Among those familiar with the work, singing it will naturally bring the scenes to mind.
