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.

Indelible (unforgettable)Ishizaki Hyuui
The opening theme for the third season of the anime Dr.
STONE NEW WORLD is “WASUREGATAKI.” It’s an original song written by Huwie Ishizaki.
The title, written in kanji as 「忘れ難き」, means “unforgettable,” and the lyrics portray irreplaceable things that cannot be forgotten, as well as sorrow.
The phrase “wasuregataka(ki),” which you don’t often hear on its own, appears repeatedly, making it stick in your ear.
The sound is a pop style typical of anime openings, heightening anticipation for the series.
GO!!!FLOW
An ultra-energetic mixture rock track with soul-shaking twin vocals exploding onto the scene! Many of you probably listened to it obsessively when it was used as the opening theme for the TV anime Naruto.
Released in April 2004 as FLOW’s fourth major single, this smash hit spent three consecutive weeks in the top 10 of the Oricon charts.
Riding a breakneck, exhilarating sound, its fiery message—don’t rely on someone else’s map; carve out your own future with your own hands—ignites the smoldering passion in your heart.
It’s the ultimate fight song that floods you with limitless courage and power when you’re about to start a new challenge or face a towering wall.

This is a song by SUPER BEAVER that teaches the importance of believing in yourself and steadily moving forward.
The lyrics—“Even when your heart is about to break, take just one more step”—spur you on and give courage to anyone taking on a challenge.
Released in November 2022, the track was chosen as the opening theme for Season 6 of the TV anime My Hero Academia.
The heroes’ determination to hold onto hope even in desperate situations perfectly aligns with the song’s powerful message.
When you hit a wall and feel like giving up, why not let this song give you courage, trust in your resolve, and take the leap?

Fried Rice MUSICArukara
This is a playful, love-packed number crafted by Arukara, known as the “eccentric maestro of the rock world.” Released in November 2016 as the band’s first major-label single, the song colored the story as an ending theme for the anime Dragon Ball Super.
It’s a humorous track with bilingual phrases centered on fried rice, while showcasing advanced musicianship behind the scenes, such as slap bass.
It also brims with deep respect for the Dragon Ball series, including fan-pleasing tricks like a reverse-playback gimmick reminiscent of “Detekoi Tobikiri ZENKAI Power!” A perfect killer tune to lift your spirits.
Fly! GundamIkeda Ko
A song by Ko Ikeda, a singer from Nagasaki Prefecture, used as the opening theme for the anime Mobile Suit Gundam.
Among the many robot-themed anime series—with numerous sequels and related works—this anime is known for having the most famous opening theme.
Unlike the conventional image of anime where the hero pilots a robot to defeat evil enemies, Mobile Suit Gundam presents a weighty narrative centered on war.
Because of that, when you listen to it with this context in mind, its bright, upbeat melody can leave you with a curious, almost dissonant feeling.
Don’t Wanna LieB’z
A B’z song that passionately proclaims the strong resolve to never lie to oneself at life’s pivotal moments.
Released in June 2011 as their 49th single, it was used as the opening theme for the anime Detective Conan and as the theme song for the film Detective Conan: Quarter of Silence.
Koshi Inaba’s heartfelt lyrics and Tak Matsumoto’s dramatic melody—crafted to resonate on both television and in the theater—perfectly align with the protagonist’s pursuit of truth.
The track is also included on the album C’mon and the best-of compilation B’z The Best XXV 1999–2012.
When you’re wavering before a major decision and want to stay true to your convictions, this song will give you a powerful push forward.
