Tenmon Popular Songs Ranking [2026]

impatienceTenmon8rank/position

“Anxiety,” with its poignant strings and piano melodies, leaves a strong impression.

The highlight of this piece is that, within its roughly one-minute runtime, a minimal ensemble of just strings and piano weaves a streamlined, beautiful melody.

Without a dramatic rise and fall, the music feels as if it’s floating from start to finish—there’s even something quietly soothing about it.

When you’re tired from studying or work, why not take a one-minute break with this track?

Poem of the Sky and SeaTenmon9rank/position

This piece is marked by the gentle tones of piano and strings and an expansive development that gradually unfolds.

It plays during the scene in “Cosmonaut” where the protagonist, Kanae, strengthens her resolve and faces the waves, conveying a moving atmosphere.

While “5 Centimeters per Second” often evokes a strong image of winter, “Cosmonaut” depicts the late summer, and the music also conveys a grand, expansive feeling—like the wide blue summer sky and the vast ocean.

The way the piece builds in intensity is captivating, expressing how a wavering heart is gradually cleared away, and how rising emotions and firm determination are conveyed by the majestic, powerful mood of the latter half.

Snow StationTenmon10rank/position

Snow Station begins with a restrained piano.

This piece, which plays during the scene where Akari and Takaki meet in the station waiting room, features a piano that carries the melody of One more Time, One More Chance, wrapped in lush strings.

In this scene—despite it being Takaki’s last chance to see Akari—the train is delayed by snow, and both of them fear they might miss each other, yet they manage a beautiful reunion.

Akari waits in the waiting room even after the appointed time, and Takaki somehow makes it to the station.

It’s a track that conveys their relief and joy.
