Hiroshi Kitadani – We Are! / THE FIRST TAKE

ONE PIECE is a series that’s always at the forefront of the anime scene, constantly generating buzz.

It has produced many theme songs, but when you hear ONE PIECE, the first one that comes to mind is probably “We Are!” The biggest charm of this song is, without a doubt, its grand vocal line.

The singer, Hiroshi Kitadani, is a vocalist who excels in the lower register as well, and in JAM Project he handles the overall low parts and even death growls.

The richness created by those low tones is truly impressive and perfectly captures the spirit of adventure.

This is a promotional commercial for the One Piece Scratch lottery, a collaboration with the hugely popular series ONE PIECE.

In this CM, it depicts the dreams of Luffy and Koby, who met when they were young.

It conveys the passionate spirit that is one of ONE PIECE’s biggest appeals, and watching it really fires you up.

The background music is the original song familiar from the One Piece Scratch commercials, performed by Hiroshi Kitadani, who is also known for singing the anime’s theme songs.

Endless Hope

It’s one of the insert songs from Kamen Rider Ryuki, and Hiroshi Kitadani’s fiery vocals and passionate melody are striking.

The lyrics about a hero’s resolve and rousing oneself really hit home.

Since Kamen Rider Ryuki was blessed with great music, I think this song sounds cool even on its own.

OVER THE TOPkitadani hiroshi5rank/position

OVER THE TOP

Sung by Hiroshi Kitadani, who worked on the very first opening theme “We Are!,” this is an irresistible track for fans.

Released as a single in September 2019, it was reportedly written as the opening theme for the Wano Country arc of the TV anime One Piece.

This song is a high-energy, fast-paced number that portrays the protagonist’s spirit of pressing forward and believing in oneself no matter the hardship.

There’s even an anecdote that Kitadani poured so much passion into the recording that he worked up a heavy sweat, and just listening to it fills you with courage.

I wholeheartedly recommend this piece as an anthem that will push the backs of those who want to overcome challenges and break through their limits!

Crescent Moon ~ you were my everything

This song by Hiroshi Kitadani, who became a star with One Piece’s theme song “We Are!”, isn’t his usual high-energy style; it’s a somewhat wistful, mature ballad.

It’s a very good song that lets you see a different side of him.

Mikoto's Song of Squid — Hiroshi Kitadani

This piece is sung by Hiroshi Kitadani, whose rugged, masculine voice is widely loved, and it’s about his hometown, Susa in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture.

The nostalgic melody line, paired with his powerful vocals, portrays a “hero” brilliantly.

The lyrics and music are a perfect match, so please listen all the way to the end.
