Kokoro-eroodo obu mejyaa64rank/position

Lord of Major is a four-member rock band born from a documentary project on the audition variety show “Hamaraja.” Their fourth single, “Kokoroe,” used as the opening theme for the TV anime Major: 1st Season, features lyrics about bonds with friends and the days they’ve shared that truly stir the heart.

Its message—struggling with the gap between dreams and reality while choosing to move forward—feels like it speaks directly to those living through their youth.

With its driving rock sound that boosts motivation, it’s a straightforward rock tune.

The three-piece rock band Shinsei Kamattechan has built a devoted following with introspective, hard-hitting lyrics and a sound that refuses to pander to the mainstream.

Their eighth digital single, Front Memory feat.

ACA-ne (ZUTOMAYO), re-recorded to commemorate the band’s 15th anniversary, drew attention for featuring ACA-ne from ZUTOMAYO as a guest vocalist, just as the title suggests.

The ensemble—highlighting delicate piano and hooky synths—achieves a refined balance that remains lyrical without sacrificing pop appeal.

It’s a pop tune you’ll want to keep on repeat, with a unique sense of weightless drift that becomes downright addictive.

This is the theme song of the anime “Slam Dunk,” which aired in the early 1990s.

I think this will especially resonate with teenagers who play sports.

This song was chosen as the opening theme for the anime Haikyu!! TO THE TOP, which is based on a manga about high school volleyball.

It’s by the Osaka-based rock band BURNOUT SYNDROMES and was released in 2020 as their fifth single.

The solid, punchy sound arrangement—where each burst of sound feels like it’s flying right at you—is striking.

It’s incredibly exhilarating, and at the same time, it gives you a real boost of energy!

FantasistaDragon Ash69rank/position

A classic Dragon Ash track that fuses powerful guitar sounds with a danceable beat.

The mix of English lyrics and striking flows in this mixture rock piece brims with elation and passion.

Released in March 2002, it was chosen as the theme song for Nippon TV’s broadcasts of the 2002 FIFA World Cup that same year, and was also included on the album HARVEST.

In live performances, it famously kicks off with Kj’s call, instantly sweeping the entire venue into a frenzy.

Energetic and positive, this song is perfect for boosting your motivation during training.

Released in August 2025, this work was produced as the opening theme for the TV anime One Piece.

It’s also the band’s first anime tie-in, made possible because vocalist Takeshi Hosomi is a huge fan of the original manga.

True to their style, the track features a rugged, high-energy sound.

It’s sure to resonate with students worn out from chasing their dreams every day and those who’ve faced frustration in their clubs.

A powerful number that gives you the courage to believe in yourself and push forward—don’t miss it.
