Gerappo Dance TrainKingu Kurīmusōda4rank/position

King Cream Soda’s “Gerapo Dance Train,” used as the opening theme for the anime Yo-kai Watch and as the main theme and in-game insert music for the Nintendo 3DS game Yo-kai Watch 2: Shinuchi, became an immensely popular track among children! Based on the melody of “Gera Gera Po no Uta,” it’s arranged as a dance number and finished with a disco vibe.
When playing it on the piano, be sure to keep the groove of the original by emphasizing syncopated rhythms and accents!
The rake charms of Terukuni ShrineKingu Kurīmusōda5rank/position

King Cream Soda’s “Terukuni Shrine’s Kumade,” which was used as the opening theme for the anime Yo-kai Watch.
“Terukuni Shrine’s Kumade” refers to a real shrine located in Terukunichō, Kagoshima City, Kagoshima Prefecture, and the lyrics also weave in local landmarks from Kagoshima City, such as “Shiroyama” and “Tenmonkan.” The combination of a high-velocity, anime-style sound with lyrics steeped in a local vibe is delightfully quirky.
To make the distinctly Yo-kai Watch melody—an arrangement of “Gera Gera Po no Uta”—really stand out, be mindful of the volume balance with the accompaniment as you play.
Stag beetles and rhinoceros beetlesKingu Kurīmusōda6rank/position

This is “Kuwagata to Kabutomushi” by King Cream Soda, the ending theme of the 2015 3DS release Yo-kai Watch 2: Shinuchi.
A slightly nostalgic and bittersweet ballad with lyrics.
It’s a song that makes you picture scenes of old rural Japan and draws you in with its gentle mood.
Gera Gera Po at First Love PassKingu Kurīmusōda7rank/position

Hatsukoi Toge de Geragerapō, the theme song for the Nintendo 3DS game Yo-kai Watch 2: Bony Spirits as well as the anime, is a track whose lively rap and enka-style phrases create a striking contrast and powerful impact.
The mismatch between the adorably cute lyrics—depicting the confusion of a first-ever love—and the song’s tone is another fun aspect of this piece! Although it’s in a minor key, it would be nice to play it on the piano in a way that doesn’t feel too heavy, so the purity of the lyrics can still shine through.
