Editor-in-chief of RAG MUSIC. JFC-certified fact-checker. After working in a music studio and handling wedding sound, joined the RAG MUSIC editorial team in 2016. 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.

PowerPro Cheer Songs and Popular BGM: Ultimate Tracks Compilation (41–50)

Flying High

Let’s cheer on high school baseball with a Power Pros track! “Flying High”

Flying High

“Flying High,” which was used as the theme song for the PowerPro Championships 2017.

Although it’s a PowerPro track, Osaka Toin High School actually performed it as a cheering song for high school baseball.

The melody has a swaying feel, like it’s riding the wind, and it seems perfect for fueling a comeback.

It makes you feel like the impossible might just become possible.

With its sense of climax, it would really amp up the late-game atmosphere! There are also lyrics written by Yui Mugino, so be sure to check those out as well.

Cheering Songs and Popular BGM from Power Pro: Ultimate Track Collection (51–60)

Theme of the Unruly ShogunKikuchi Shunsuke

IIII-43 (The Unfettered Shogun)

Theme of the Unruly ShogunKikuchi Shunsuke

This is the theme from the well-known TV drama Abarenbo Shogun.

Even younger people might know it, since the theme song is quite famous.

This version arranges that theme song as a Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu (PowerPro) cheer song.

When this starts playing, it really makes you feel like you absolutely have to get a hit!

God Knows…suzumiya haruhi (hirano aya)

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

God Knows…suzumiya haruhi (hirano aya)

It’s the theme song from the anime “The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.” The rock-style track with a sense of speed has been brilliantly arranged into a cheer song.

It’s a popular piece for play-along videos and band covers, and I imagine many people who play PowerPro are also fans of the anime.

U.S.A.DA PUMP

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

U.S.A.DA PUMP

Speaking of hit songs from 2018, wouldn’t DA PUMP’s “U.S.A.” be the one? They performed it at that year’s NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen, and it was also popular as a dance tune for kids.

This is a version arranged as a cheer song from that hit.

Its upbeat vibe makes it a great match.

Combat MarchWaseda Daigaku Ōen-bu Suisōgakudan

Waseda University Cheer Song “Combat March”

Combat MarchWaseda Daigaku Ōen-bu Suisōgakudan

This is a fight song composed in 1965 by the Waseda University Cheerleading Club Wind Orchestra.

Surprisingly, not many people know this, but it has become a true classic.

It was the first song to appear as a “chance theme,” and it’s used as the main piece in the chance-pattern performance that continues from the start of your team’s offensive each inning, played to coincide with scoring opportunities.

Using it in PowerPro adds a nice touch of realism, doesn’t it? And yes, it’s official.

Samba De JaneiroBellini

Bellini – Samba De Janeiro

Samba De JaneiroBellini

Bellini is a dance project formed by the German techno remixer and producer Ramon Zenker.

This track is Bellini’s debut single.

Honestly, it doesn’t feel out of place at all.

If you didn’t know the original, you might think it was a song from Power Pros to begin with.

Bring on Nutty Stomper fun

SpeedsterOi-SKALL MATES

Originally, it’s a song by the ska band Oi-SKALL MATES titled “Bring On Nutty Stomper Fun.” After it became Tsuyoshi Nishioka’s cheer song, it started being called “Speed Star” after his nickname.

The passionate melody line is quite striking.
