Experienced with a variety of instruments: marching band in elementary school, clarinet in junior high school wind ensemble, and drums in a band from high school onward. Drawing on my own musical activities and the experience gained through my work, I produce daily articles, including various song introductions, features on music festivals around the country, and live reports. In music, I enjoy not only rock from Japan and abroad but, lately, a wide range of J-pop as well.
POPS writer/editorKEI
Since discovering music during my school days, I’ve mainly listened to Japanese and Korean pop. I have experience writing articles for sites like Utaten. 2000s J-pop and 2010s K-pop were especially the soundtrack of my youth. With the mindset that “good is good,” I enjoy music across genres. Thanks to past work environments and their influence, I was exposed to lots of classic rock and kayōkyoku (Japanese popular songs), which may have broadened the scope of what I love. At RAG MUSIC, I currently focus on K-pop and J-pop. I strive to edit with a feel for the scene and an eye for hit potential.

The PowerPro series has long been loved as a landmark in baseball games.

The BGM and cheering songs that excite players’ hearts are cherished as key elements that further enhance the game’s appeal.

In this article, we’ll introduce recommended tracks—focusing on cheering songs that are popular at high school baseball games, professional baseball, and even Samurai Japan matches.

Feel free to use them as references when creating your own cheering songs.

Welcome to Japari Parkdōbutsu bisuketsu × PPP

[Part 2] I tried making an anime song cheer theme in PowerPro

Welcome to Japari Parkdōbutsu bisuketsu × PPP

It’s the theme song of the anime Kemono Friends.

Nicknamed “KemoFure,” the show became a huge craze at the time, including its theme song.

The track was even used for cheering at high school baseball games, showing just how popular it was.

With its brisk, driving feel, it seems like it could really set the batting lineup on a rampage.

Brand New Sky

Let's cheer on high school baseball with a Power Pros track! “Brand New Sky”

“Brand New Sky,” the opening theme of Power Pro 2018.

With its striking chorus and calls, it’s a truly powerful and refreshing number.

The singer KOCHO wrote the lyrics and performs the song.

Baseball is a drama where every moment counts, packed with irreplaceable scenes that fire you up—and when this track plays at a crucial point, it lifts your spirits even higher! In its brass arrangement, it’s famous as an Osaka Toin cheering song.

It’s a piece that beautifully colors countless memorable moments with its wonderful performance.

I’d love to hear it playing at those moving, unforgettable moments!

Cheering Songs and Popular BGM from PowerPro: A Collection of Masterpiece Tracks (31–40)

Powerful Symphony

Let's cheer on high school baseball with Power Pro music! 'Powerful Symphony'

Powerful Symphony

Powerful Symphony, used as the main theme for the PowerPro app.

Although it’s a PowerPro track, it’s actually performed as a high school baseball cheering song by schools like Nihon University Third High School and Toyama Commercial High School.

It perfectly suits cheering for a batter at the plate, and I think it overlaps with the charm of baseball, where a single swing can ignite huge excitement.

The melody’s beautiful resonance makes the piece simply appealing, and it also gives you the focus you need in clutch moments.

Sugar Song and Bitter StepUNISON SQUARE GARDEN

[Part 2] I tried making an anime song cheer theme in PowerPro

Sugar Song and Bitter StepUNISON SQUARE GARDEN

This is a song written as the theme for the anime Blood Blockade Battlefront.

It’s one of UNISON SQUARE GARDEN’s signature tracks.

Its biggest appeal is the brisk, lively melody with intricate rhythms, and I think it’s been reproduced brilliantly.

It might be tough to program, but the light, energetic finish will lift your mood and make it fun to play.

Promise of SunflowersHata Motohiro

I tried turning the 2018 Karaoke Top 20 into Power Pros cheering songs

Promise of SunflowersHata Motohiro

It’s one of Motohiro Hata’s signature songs, which was used as the theme for a Doraemon feature film.

The original is a slow-tempo ballad with a gentle, mellow vibe, but it surprisingly works well even when arranged as a fight song.

It gives off a mood that seems perfect for stepping up to the plate in a relaxed state.

[Part 2] I tried making an anime song cheer theme in PowerPro

Hanamaru Pippi is only for good kids A ou P

This is a song that became the theme for the anime Osomatsu-san.

It’s a track by the female idol group AŌP, active since 2012, but it exudes a somewhat retro, Showa-era anime song vibe.

The melody, driven mainly by eighth notes, ignites the player’s spirit as if stoking their fighting spirit.

Now then! Legendary Strongest Battle

Let's cheer on high school baseball with PowerPro music! 'Now, the Legendary Strongest Battle'

Now then! Legendary Strongest Battle

Iza! Densetsu Saikyō-sen,” the track that played during the final game in Power Pro 8’s Success Mode.

From the musical cues alone, it overflows with a boss-battle vibe.

I’m sure many people were thrilled by the showdown against legendary former pros—real-life players with far superior abilities! The brass arrangement by the Nihon University Third High School wind ensemble, credited as the first to bring brass band performance into high school baseball cheering, is also incredibly cool and a must-hear.

It adds real power to the comeback scenes!
