Anime Anthem Bangers That Hype Up Karaoke [Gather, Anime Fans!]

A Vocaloid producer who is also a music writerWakachan Araki
I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

Among today’s music trends, one genre drawing a lot of attention is anime songs—“anisong.” It’s no longer uncommon for artists to break out after their track is chosen as an anime theme.

And there are so many you’ll want to try singing at karaoke! Still, you might find yourself thinking, “I don’t know which songs are popular,” or “I’m worried whether the songs I like will go over well…” That’s why this article introduces hype, crowd-pleasing picks from hugely popular anisong tracks.

Trace OrionUNISON SQUARE GARDEN

UNISON SQUARE GARDEN "Trace the Orion" Short Ver.

Tracing Orion - UNISON SQUARE GARDEN

This is UNISON SQUARE GARDEN’s breakout work, their fifth single released in 2011.

It’s the theme song for the anime TIGER & BUNNY.

The rhythm of the rapid-fire lyrics and the sense of speed create a comfortable sound that’s so characteristic of them.

The piano and strings also add a great accent.

With few spots to breathe and a barrage of high notes, it might be hard to sing well, but it’s guaranteed to be fun to perform!

Take it! Sailor UniformAya Hirano, Emiri Katō, Kaori Fukuhara, Aya Endo

Lucky☆Star OP 'Motteke! Sailor Fuku' (with lyric subtitles)

Take It! Sailor Uniform - Aya Hirano, Emiri Katō, Kaori Fukuhara, Aya Endo

This is the opening theme of Lucky Star, which aired in 2007.

It was originally a laid-back four-panel manga.

The anime features lots of little gags and parodies, which became a hot topic.

The song is what you’d call a “denpa song,” highly addictive and sticks in your head.

The lyrics are complex, so it’s a bit hard to sing, but if you can pull it off, it’s a great way to hype things up even with people you don’t know.

A world where the sun does not riseAimer

Aimer “A World Where the Sun Doesn’t Rise” Music Video (Theme song for Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Infinity Castle Arc, Chapter 1: The Return of Akaza)

A world where the sun never rises Aimer

This song, which is also the theme for “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle Arc: Chapter 1 Akaza’s Return,” spans roughly E3 to E5 and is quite advanced to sing on a first try.

When I first heard it, Aimer’s English-like diction made me think, “Is this a Western song?” but it’s firmly in Japanese (lol).

The A section is sung phrase by phrase in the lower register, but from around the B section it gradually becomes more emotional.

There are plenty of high notes, but rather than belting them in chest voice, using a strong head voice brings out both the poignancy and the power, matching the song’s mood.

From low to high notes, try singing with your eyebrows slightly raised to help stabilize pitch!

Blue Bird Ikimono-gakari

It’s the opening theme of Naruto Shippuden, which began airing in 2007.

The anime depicts Naruto and his friends after their childhood, having grown and matured.

Its fast-paced sound matches the world perfectly.

Whether you know the anime or not, it’s a classic that’s easy to sing at karaoke.

Requiem of a TraitorHasegawa Daisuke

Requiem of a Traitor

Traitor’s Requiem Hasegawa Daisuke

This song, used in the globally famous anime “JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure,” is such a classic that any JoJo fan is sure to know it.

If you hear it coming from another karaoke room, you’ll probably end up joining them (lol).

It starts gently and builds up gradually, which really boosts your energy when you sing it.

It might also be fun to sing it in front of people who don’t know JoJo and use it as a chance to introduce them to how great it is!

Crimson OathYoshiki Fukuyama

Yoshiki Fukuyama – Crimson Oath

Crimson Oath Yoshiki Fukuyama

It’s the opening theme of the anime Buso Renkin.

The song is cool, but above all, the biggest reason it became famous is that there are so many parts everyone can shout together.

The melody itself is in a slightly higher key.

It’s a track you’ll want to shout along to and enjoy with everyone.

~asterisk~ORANGE RANGE

ORANGE RANGE – *~Asterisk~/Love Parade/GOD69 | Live

*~Asterisk~ ORANGE RANGE

This is a song from BLEACH.

ORANGE RANGE has many well-known tracks, but I think this one is a bit more mature.

It blends beautifully with the world of BLEACH.

I don’t think many people are unfamiliar with ORANGE RANGE, so it’s a well-balanced choice.
