sumika Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (11–20)
Vermillionsumika15rank/position
This is the title of the full album releasing on March 5, 2025, the first in two and a half years.
It’s a band-style track with a slightly faster tempo.
When singing this song, being mindful of accents will add definition and make it sound cool.
When marking the rhythm, think of exaggerating the drum sounds.
Also, for the accented parts, it seems fine to pronounce them more clearly than you think.
It’s consistently in duple meter, and it might be good to emphasize the first beat.
Try singing with a clenched-fist motion, like you’re shaking maracas.
Starting Oversumika16rank/position
Released as a single on June 7, 2023, it serves as the opening theme for the TV anime “MIX MEISEI STORY: The Second Summer, Beyond the Sky.” It’s a fast-paced track that ties into the anime’s worldview, carrying a message about moving forward positively even while facing hardships.
It’s also a great recommendation for those who like sumika’s vibe! Since the song starts with the chorus melody, it seems challenging to sing the full version unless you keep a bright expression from the very beginning.
How about singing with a polished tone, projecting your voice outward as if calling into the distance? Momentum is crucial for this song, so don’t hesitate—let your voice out!
Dengon Songsumika17rank/position
A sumika song that delicately portrays relationships with loved ones.
Written by Kenta Kataoka when he was 18, the lyrics convey a sense of enduring friendship and affection.
The profound love that can’t be put into words—felt through the deep understanding of the other person and the willingness to accept everything—leaves a lasting impression.
Included on their first double A-side single released in May 2016, this track came to symbolize the band’s musical growth.
It’s recommended for those who, while sensing a farewell with someone important, still want to express their gratitude to that person.
Sense of Wondersumika18rank/position
In this TV commercial for Shinken Zemi Elementary Course, it portrays the personal Red Pen Teacher assigned to each student.
A boy comes home from school and happily says, “Mom understands me!” after finding out she prepared his favorite snack.
In the same vein, he cheerfully shares that his homeroom Red Pen Teacher understands him too.
Having a Red Pen Teacher who sincerely keeps track of his study progress is sure to boost his motivation to learn.
The background music features Sumika’s ‘Sense of Wonder,’ giving the commercial a friendly and upbeat vibe.
MAGICsumika19rank/position
Released on December 7, 2016, the music video features model Rinko Murata, with a lively dance scene involving members, dancers, and 100 extras.
It’s an upbeat, easy-to-sing, characteristically bright sumika song.
A cutting-like melody appears at the beginning and end, which many might find challenging, but if you sing the lyrics straightforwardly, you’ll be fine.
For high notes in chest voice, focus on singing with a bright tone—this naturally lifts your facial muscles—so project your voice firmly into the distance!
the 10 o’clock directionsumika20rank/position
For the dawn of a new campus life, sumika’s sprightly number will be your brightest ally.
Opening their March 2019 album “Chime,” this track stands out with its fresh, fast-paced pop sound.
Chosen as the CM song for Universal Studios Japan’s “Uni Spring” 2025, it’s loved widely across generations.
Its worldview captures the mixed feelings of anxiety and anticipation—like the moment your bike’s training wheels come off—perfectly embodying the essence of a new beginning.
Listen to this song, which affirms not only straight-line answers but also detours and side trips, and kick off a wonderful start at your own pace!

This song was included on the double A-side single “Fanfare/Shunkashuto,” released on August 29, 2018, and was written specifically as the main theme and an insert song for the animated film “I Want to Eat Your Pancreas.” It’s a moving ballad that captures the brilliance and bittersweetness of youth! The tempo is relaxed, making it easy to keep time, and the melody line is straightforward.
The overall vocal range spans E3 to D5; the verses (A and B sections) sit in the middle range, while the chorus jumps up sharply into the high range, so it might be better to learn them separately.
When singing high notes, your throat can sometimes tense and constrict, so it’s good to keep your facial muscles lifted and maintain a bright expression.
As for the voice itself, I recommend projecting it confidently out into the distance.
