It was selected as the opening theme for the TV anime “The Old Man From the Countryside Becomes a Sword Saint.” Its appeal lies in the sound arrangement, with composition by Sojiro Oki of Novelbright and arrangement by Seiji Kameda.

The Zero Sense10-FEET
This song captivated audiences as the ending theme of the film THE FIRST SLAM DUNK.
It’s included on Collins, the album released in December 2022 by the Kyoto-based rock band 10-FEET.
The sound is striking, as if it captures the heat on the court and the protagonist’s passion as he charges toward his dream.
The lyrics skillfully weave in basketball terminology, conveying a strong will to overcome adversity.
It’s a great choice to sing when you want to fire yourself up!
Ephemeral yet eternal sorrowUVERworld
The first opening theme of the anime Mobile Suit Gundam 00 Season 2, which depicts the boundary between love and hatred.
UVERworld’s songs are generally tough to master, and this one is no exception, but if you can pull it off at karaoke, it’s a track that lets you become a true performer who can wield explosive emotion! The overall vocal range is fairly wide, from D#3 to C#5.
Since F4 is the most frequently used pitch on average, it’ll feel consistently high for male singers, but if you sing with solid resonance through your body, it becomes a bit easier.
Focus on resonating more in your chest than your head—this approach should suit the song well.
Breath support and explosive power are crucial, so sing with the image of projecting your voice firmly!
cloudy skyDOES
This is an opening theme from Gintama, which began airing in 2006.
While Gintama is strongly associated with its uniquely styled gag comedy, it also features many action sequences, and this song perfectly matches that cool atmosphere.
The lyrics that appeal to a man’s heart and the sharp band sound are irresistible.
The key is on the lower side, so it’s relatively easy to sing even if high notes are tough for you—definitely give it a try.
