MONONOFU NIPPON feat. Tomoyasu HoteiMomoiro Kurōbā Zetto
Momoiro Clover Z and Tomoyasu Hotei—who previously teamed up on “Saraba, Itoshiki Kanashimitachi yo”—synchronize once again after 11 years! When their new song “MONONOFU NIPPON feat.
Tomoyasu Hotei” was first unveiled at Kobe International House, the crowd went so wild you wouldn’t believe it was a debut performance.
Lyrics and composition are by Hyadain, an artist who seems to have reached god-tier status.
With a lineup like this, there’s no way it wouldn’t be electrifying.
The track weaves in the signature “Nippon!” chant and the famous live mix call “Urya-oi” at key moments—this is exactly the kind of song that boosts your spirits just by listening!

jellyfishYuuma
It’s a supportive song that stands by job-hunting students.
Created by Yuma, who’s also known as a member of Comdot, it was released as a digital single in March 2024.
I’ve heard it was inspired by his younger brother’s job-hunting experience.
Set to a gentle, relaxed melody, it sings about the importance of facing yourself.
The warm sound arrangement is truly soothing.
It’s the perfect companion for a journey to discover your true self.
Sense of Wondersumika
An upbeat, catchy song that gives you the courage to believe in your own strength! It was featured in a Shinken Zemi commercial, so many of you have probably heard it on TV and elsewhere.
The lyrics, perfect for Shinken Zemi’s mission to support exam-takers, give a gentle push to those who keep working hard.
When you’re feeling anxious, listening to this song will help you regain confidence—reminding you that “the only one who can make your dreams come true is you!”—and you’ll be able to face forward and keep going.
It’s a powerful track we want you, who keep taking on challenges, to hear.
From Father to Daughter ~A Letter from a Saya Samurai~Takehara Pisutoru
The theme song of the film “Saya Zamurai,” in which Pistol Takehara himself also appears.
As the title suggests, it’s a message from a father to his daughter.
Some listeners may find themselves in tears at this story of a strong bond in which the two have supported each other.
Takehara Pistol’s warm singing voice is also deeply moving.
Rolling starYUI
This is YUI’s seventh single, released on January 17, 2007.
With the tagline “An irresistibly upbeat rock ’n’ roll number!! YUI’s first cheer song!!,” it’s truly a perfect track for lifting your spirits.
It’s us.imase
If you’re feeling anxious or irritated about your current situation and don’t know what to do, I recommend “Bokurada” by imase.
New employees who’ve just joined a company and anyone still early in their career will especially relate.
The lyrics portray a strong determination to seize a future true to oneself by overcoming things one by one, even though every day feels stifling under so many rules.
If things aren’t going well and every day feels boring, let this song give you hope.
sailing dayBUMP OF CHICKEN
Sailing Day,” a single by BUMP OF CHICKEN released in 2003, was used as the theme song for the film “ONE PIECE THE MOVIE: Dead End no Bōken.” Its driving, powerful sound perfectly matches the atmosphere of ONE PIECE, and its uplifting lyrics—like “even if you fall, just stand up again and again”—really resonate when you’re feeling down.
BUMP OF CHICKEN has many songs that are reassuring companions through life, but if you simply want a push forward, this is the one I recommend.
Even if you fail or lose something, your own unique future still awaits you! With that mindset, you’ll find the strength to keep going.
