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.

A high-energy dance tune that shocks with its unexpected collaboration! Produced by TeddyLoid and released in October 2025, “Wanna be” serves as the opening theme for the anime ‘Tōjima Tanzaburō Wants to Be Kamen Rider.’ From the intro, its full-throttle electro beat intertwines with the overwhelming vocals of Shigeru Matsuzaki—legend of the Showa-era pop scene—and the tricky rap of TOPHAMHAT-KYO.
Chaotic yet insanely cool! The lyrics deliver a fiery message about chasing an ideal hero, pushing forward through inner conflict, which really hits home.
A must-listen track when you need to fire yourself up!
Flying DeityAyase×R-shitei
Hiten, a digital release chosen as the opening theme for the newly remade 2023 TV anime Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Swordsman Romantic Story.
Created by R-Shitei—known from Creepy Nuts and Umeda Cypher—and Ayase, active as a Vocaloid producer and member of YOASOBI, the track’s breakneck back-and-forth generates a thrilling ensemble that really amps you up.
The lyrics, which link with the anime’s story, evoke a universal theme of having no choice but to keep moving forward despite uncertainty.
It’s a track that lingers in the ear with its striking contrast between aggressive rap and lyrical melody.
HyperKroi
A track pre-released from the first single that the genre-blending band Kroi put out in 2023.

The heavy, underground-sounding intro leaves a strong impression, and once you’re through it, a light, alluring band sound bursts forth.
The vocals, reminiscent of sing-rap, add to the rhythmic drive—your body can’t help but sway! With clever touches like brass parts and mid-to-late call-and-response sections, it’s a fun and stylish song with inventive development throughout.
