Songs that play during moving scenes. A collection of classic tracks that evoke deep emotion.

TouchIwasaki Yoshimi

Touch – Yoshimi Iwasaki (Full)

This is the theme song of the anime Touch, based on Mitsuru Adachi’s original work, which set a landmark in baseball anime.

Even after the broadcast ended, it has been rebroadcast many times and adapted into a live-action film, becoming a long-loved work.

I imagine many people are moved to tears just by listening to this song.

YUME WeatherShimatani Hitomi

Hitomi Shimatani / “YUME Biyori” [OFFICIAL MV FULL SIZE]

It’s the theme song from a Doraemon movie.

I was an elementary school student at the time and watched the film when it came out, and I remember bawling during the ending.

Shimatani’s gentle vocals and the wonderful lyrics really touched my heart and made me feel warm.

The lyrics are very straightforward, so I think it’s a song people of all ages, from children to the elderly, can enjoy.

Close your eyesHirai Ken

Hitomi wo Tojite – Ken Hirai (Full)

This is a song that became a huge hit after being used as the theme for the film “Crying Out Love, in the Center of the World.” It sings of recalling a beloved person who isn’t there before you, and of feeling that love forever.

The lyrics, which teach us the beauty of loving someone, together with Ken Hirai’s vocals, are nothing short of moving.

Yumi Matsutoya – If Wrapped in Kindness (THE LAST WEDNESDAY TOUR 2006 ~HERE COMES THE WAVE~)

This is the theme song from Kiki’s Delivery Service, one of the most popular Studio Ghibli films by Hayao Miyazaki.

The sight of the young heroine working so earnestly likely moved many viewers deeply.

Just listening to it brings the film back to mind and stirs the emotions.

Wrapped in Gentleness – Yumi Arai (Yumi Matsutoya)

It’s the theme song from Kiki’s Delivery Service.

I really love the intro—it gives me such a refreshing feeling.

I watched the movie a lot when I was little, so listening to this song makes me nostalgic and a bit wistful.

Yumi’s voice is so pleasant to listen to that I never get tired of it.

Code Geass – Stories

Among the insert songs from Code Geass, the one that played in episode 13, part B, moved me to tears.

This song captures the protagonist’s emotions so well that even first-time listeners will likely feel a deep ache in their hearts.

For those who have watched the main story, understanding Lelouch’s pain makes it all the more moving.

SunSet Swish – Arigatou [Official Video]

It’s the ending theme of Big Windup!.

The bittersweet melody and lyrics bring tears to my eyes.

The ending visuals show the baseball team on their way home, which makes it even more poignant as I remember my own days on the team.

I recommend it when you’re in the mood for something quietly reflective.
