Dohatsuten / Otona no Susume

This commercial, themed around the “Adults are the best” line from the lyrics of Otona no Susume, which is used as the CM song, features Don de Corte’s Gintoki Watanabe.

It shows him at home immersed in his hobbies—kendama, guitar, and fashion—conveying the joy of diving into what you love.

With “FOREVER YOUNG” as a keyword, it appeals to viewers: “Even as adults, let’s eat Double Cheeseburgers like we did when we were young!” It’s a spot that stirs a sense of excitement.

The BGM, Otona no Susume, is a track released by Dohatsuten in 2009—an undeniably fiery anthem celebrating adulthood.

Dohatsuten MV “As Long as We Keep Walking”

The 15th single by Dohatsuten, a rock band from Hokkaido who dub their style “Japanese R&E” (Rhythm & Enka) and are known for a sound strongly influenced by kayōkyoku and enka.

It’s a breezy, up-tempo rock number with a refreshing intro and a melody tinged with nostalgia that lingers in your ears.

The lyrics tell the story of struggling toward a dream you can’t give up no matter how hard it gets, offering courage and resonance to those who keep walking the path they believe in.

With a powerful message that nothing ends unless you end it yourself, this exhilarating, fast-driving rock tune gives you a push forward.

Dohatsuten “Area 1020” Music Video

This song gently sings about the sense of unity and hope born in the special space of a live house.

Released by Dohatsuten in October 2024, it’s a gem of a rock number that expresses the bond between artist and fans.

It begins with the warm greetings exchanged between the stage and the audience, and carries a deep message of empathy and encouragement for those who find life difficult.

It stays close to the hearts of people who feel lonely or are searching for a place to belong, depicting the joy of spending time together in the “dreamlike place” that is a live house.

When you’re looking for a place where you can be yourself, encountering this work will give you the courage to take a new step forward.

We will shoot tomorrow!dohatsuten5rank/position

Dokatsu-ten / We Shoot at Tomorrow!

It’s a slightly wandering, amusing song with lyrics that liken the singer to a gunslinger.

I think it makes a reassuring anthem for office workers striving hard in the big city.

Precisely because we live in a time when a colleague might be down and we don’t even know what will become of us, this song’s touch of comedy makes it pleasant and comforting to listen to.

Danran at the housing complexdohatsuten6rank/position

Anime “Danchi Tomo” OP

Since it’s also the theme song for Danchi Tomoo, that’s how I found it, and I love the upbeat lyrics.

It makes me feel that tomorrow will be a better day than today, and I like that I can feel every single day that tomorrow will be better.

The melody is lively too, so I think it’s great for times when you need that extra push.

Dance! Party! at the housing complex!Dohatsuten feat. Kiyosaku (MONGOL800)7rank/position

Dance! Party! at the housing complex!

This is a down-to-earth number that brings back memories of the smell of dinner drifting from some apartment at dusk in a housing complex.

It’s a collaboration between the rock band Dohatsuten and Kiyosaku from MONGOL800, included as the title track of the single “Danchi de DAN! RAN!” released in July 2013.

It served as the opening theme for the NHK General TV anime “Danchi Tomoo.” The lively back-and-forth between Masuko and Kiyosaku and the four-on-the-floor rhythm will lift your spirits just by listening.

It’s guaranteed to make you crave a steaming plate of curry rice.
