Male Singer-Songwriters’ Anime Songs: Popular Song Rankings [2026] (91–100)

PlasmaYonezu Kenshi99rank/position

The world of Kenshi Yonezu woven from imaginative melodies and innovative electronic sounds.

Set against the backdrop of space, this work—depicting life’s choices and fateful encounters—was released in January 2025 as the theme song for the animated film “Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX -Beginning-.” It carries Yonezu’s signature delicate sensibility and straightforward passion, familiar from albums like “diorama” and “BOOTLEG.” Alongside its high-energy musicality, the lyrics powerfully convey the courage to step into new worlds and the drive to face the unknown, leaving a deep impression.

It’s a song I especially recommend to younger listeners who are determined to forge their own path.

Pokemon XY OP2 FULL SONG – Mega V (Volt) by Yusuke
Mega VYūsuke

It’s a rousing track sung by Yusuke, who’s also well known as an actor and TV personality.

Centered on themes of friendship and the courage to chase your dreams, it’s packed with elements that heat up your heart just by listening.

The lyrics, which rhythmically list Pokémon types, are very unique and amplify the excitement for the battles to come.

Released as a single in June 2014, the song served as the opening for the anime Pokémon XY and the film Pokémon the Movie: XY — Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction.

Its structure—adding new lyrics to a previous theme song—also conveys a sense of the story’s evolution.

It’s the kind of song that gives you a powerful boost when you’re about to take on a new challenge.
