Get Fired Up! Anime Songs for Men – Classics and New Hits
Anime is a culture that has continued to expand with the times.
Back in the day, labels like “hero stories,” “magical girl,” or “mecha” were enough to explain what kind of show it was, but now words alone just aren’t enough.
That’s how big a scene it has become.
In this article, we’re doing a special feature on anime songs recommended for men.
From nostalgic, heart-pounding tracks to relatively recent releases,
it’s a lineup packed with masterpieces.
It may undermine the premise a bit to say this, but although we’re calling them “recommended for men,” there are surely songs here that will resonate with women too.
Please take your time and enjoy it to the end.

Burning HeroHiroyuki Okita
A towering landmark of anime songs that sings of dreams and passion over samba rhythms and a catchy melody! This masterpiece briskly and humorously portrays the presence, skill, and influence of an ace player.
Hiroyuki Okita’s refreshing vocals brilliantly capture the allure of soccer and the throbbing energy of youth.
Released in 1983 as the opening theme for the TV Tokyo anime Captain Tsubasa, it became a classic that helped spark the soccer boom.
In 2018, it was remade by Ryuhei Maruyama of Kanjani Eight.
It’s a song that powerfully pushes the backs of everyone striving toward their dreams—not just soccer fans—and one we highly recommend you listen to.
CASANOVA POSSEAli
It’s a groove-driven track that blends a variety of elements—rock, funk, hip-hop, and Latin.
It’s a song by the band ALI, slated for release in January 2025, and it’s been selected as the opening theme for the anime Dr.
STONE.
The song carries a message of having the courage to break free from the past and forge your future, and listening to it really sets your heart on fire.

Sky-Blue DaysShoko Nakagawa
Known by the nickname “Shokotan,” Shoko Nakagawa is a singer who enjoys overwhelming support not only for her major activities like music and voice acting, but also from subculture fans.
This is her third single.
Featuring a dynamic rock sound, it was used as the opening theme for the TV anime Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and the music program Anison Academy.
Her cool vocals, a departure from her usual cute image, captivated many fans.
With its catchy and exhilarating melody, this anison is a feel-good track that boosts your energy.
Kinnikuman HeroMasaaki Endo
With his powerful vocals that stir the soul, Masaaki Endoh pours his passion into a heartfelt cry from the spirit.
It brilliantly portrays a hero who stands firm in justice and friendship, powerfully expressing blazing fighting spirit and bonds with comrades.
The brassy resonance and drum’n’bass beat add even more excitement to stunning effect.
Released in January 2025 as the opening theme for the TV anime “Kinnikuman: Perfect Origin Arc Season 2,” the song is written and composed by APAZZI.
It’s a track I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone who wants to etch a tale of indomitable spirit and friendship in their heart, and to those seeking the courage to face adversity.
Plan ADISH//
This song blends elements of traditional Japanese aesthetics with rock, celebrating both the courage to face adversity and the importance of knowing when to run.
Its dramatic progression and powerful melody stand out, conveying that retreat can sometimes be a strategic choice for self-preservation.
Released by DISH// in September 2024, it was chosen as the opening theme for the TV anime The Elusive Samurai, garnering attention for its seamless synergy with the show’s world.
Whether you should push forward or take a step back, this uplifting anthem offers a supportive nudge at life’s crossroads and has resonated deeply with many listeners.
D-tecnoLifeUVERworld
It’s a rock tune that hits you in the chest, where emotions shimmer beneath a steady, understated melody line.
It’s a track by the mixture rock band UVERworld, released in 2005 as their debut single.
The song was the opening theme for the anime BLEACH, based on Tite Kubo’s manga.
Its cool soundscape fits perfectly with the world of BLEACH.
Built around a four-on-the-floor rhythm, it also has that straightforward, head-nodding drive.
A must-listen for rock fans!
Not even defeated by sudden showersNICO Touches the Walls
This is the 13th single by the four-piece rock band NICO Touches the Walls, who, to much regret, ended their activities in 2019, 15 years after their formation.

With the transparent tone of its clean guitar riding on a sense of speed and the powerful vocals, fans of the anime will likely feel a surge of energy that brings the visuals vividly back to life.
