[For Men] A Surefire, Hype-Inducing Collection of Classic and Latest Anime Songs for Party Acts and Performances [2026] (71–80)

Crimson Bow and ArrowLinked Horizon

Attack on Titan - Guren no Yumiya (Full)
Crimson Bow and ArrowLinked Horizon

This is a song by the music unit Linked Horizon, led by sound creator Revo.

Linked Horizon is an alternate name used by Sound Horizon for tie-in songs, and they were selected to perform the opening theme for the anime Attack on Titan.

The piece features various developments that feel like it’s expressing a story through music, and it also incorporates the tense worldview of Attack on Titan, which is a key point.

In singing, conveying the worldview is essential—it’s important to infuse the performance with the strength to face adversity and a sense of determination.

Since the song unfolds almost like multiple pieces in one, it may be best to listen closely and get thoroughly familiar with it.

There are also parts where you rally those around you to shout powerfully together, so keep that in mind and really build up the energy there.

If you’re in a setting where going all-in on a gag is acceptable, this is an anisong I’d love to see the guys take on! “Daydream café,” famous for sparking a boom that turned the phrase “kokoro pyon pyon” into an internet meme, was released as the theme song for the popular 2014 TV anime Is the Order a Rabbit?.

Performed by the unit Petit Rabbit’s, made up of the main characters’ voice cast, the song features lyrics by Aki Hata—arguably the most renowned and prolific lyricist in the anisong world—and composition by Kaoru Ōkubo, another creator behind many anisong classics.

True to the show’s image, Daydream café is a wonderfully cute, charming, and sparkling track.

Hata’s signature wordplay really shines when you try singing it at karaoke, letting you appreciate its flavor even more.

And if a male group is going to sing it, as I mentioned at the start, make sure to mind the time and place—and then hop to it!

RPGSEKAI NO OWARI

This is the fourth single by SEKAI NO OWARI, affectionately known as “SekaOwa,” released in May 2013.

Also serving as the theme song for the film Crayon Shin-chan: Very Tasty! B-class Gourmet Survival!!, the track is included on the highly acclaimed album Tree.

Its friendly melody and sound make you want to set off on an adventure and are sure to boost kids’ excitement.

The grand, parade-like atmosphere will make the climax of the “dancing tamaire” even more exhilarating! The lyrics, which also depict bonds with friends, are filled with a mood that celebrates time spent with new companions and the world that’s about to begin.

My First Kissanshin papa

Rather than being a hype-up track, it’s the kind of song you sit back and soak in, yet it’s beloved across generations—and especially the chorus is undeniably a sing-along must.

Let me introduce a legendary anime song! “Hajimete no Chuu,” which gained attention as both the opening and ending theme for the TV anime Kiteretsu Daihyakka, boasts recognition that transcends the anime-song category thanks to its nostalgic melody and cute, studio-processed vocals.

It first appeared as a single in 1990.

The artist name “Anshin Papa” is actually a fictional moniker—the song was written, composed, and sung by Toshiharu Mitsukawa himself.

In 2000, the band Hi-STANDARD released a punked-up cover version that became a huge hit, making that rendition very famous as well.

If you want to really get the crowd going, go with the Hi-Standard version; if you’re aiming for a chill vibe, the original is the way to go!

Aim to be a Pokémon MasterMatsumoto Rika

Used as the opening theme for a TV anime, this song was released in 1997, and a new version was unveiled to commemorate its 20th anniversary.

It has continued to be loved for many years, even being selected as the theme song for the film Pokémon the Movie: I Choose You!.

Rica Matsumoto’s clear, powerful vocals vividly express a longing for adventure and dreams.

The lyrics convey a determination to overcome hardships and achieve one’s dreams, giving courage to those who listen.

If you sing it as a performance or at an event, it’s sure to bring the whole venue together in excitement.

It’s a captivating track that resonates across generations.
