Wanna beteddyloid
Producer TeddyLoid, known for electronic music and his work on anime and game soundtracks, has created this ambitious new track as the opening theme for the TV anime “Tōjima Tanzaburō Wants to Be Kamen Rider,” airing from October 2025.
Featuring Shigeru Matsuzaki and TOPHAMHAT-KYO, the song pairs a powerful four-on-the-floor beat—channeling the fervor of a hero-struck protagonist—with razor-sharp synth leads.
In the chorus, Matsuzaki’s soaring high notes explode, sonically amplifying the series’ central theme of transformation.
A must-listen for fans of hero stories!
Over meRozarīna
This is a song chosen as the opening theme for the TV anime adaptation of the enduringly popular Karakuri Circus.
Despite its lively and cool melody, the message embedded within is extremely heavy.
This single track captures the deeply serious nature of Karakuri Circus—be sure to enjoy it alongside the work itself.
Boy’s HeartHOME MADE kazoku
This is the song used as the opening theme for the anime Eureka Seven.
It’s the fifth single released in 2005 by the hip-hop group HOME MADE Kazoku, and its catchy club sound and bright, positive lyrics will have you moving to the beat before you know it.
InfernoMrs. GREEN APPLE
A track whose scorching sound bursts into listeners’ hearts with overwhelming force! Released by Mrs.
GREEN APPLE in July 2019, this song was chosen as the opening theme for the anime Fire Force.
Its fast-paced, exhilarating melody pairs perfectly with powerful lyrics, delivering uplifting energy to anyone who listens.
While it explores profound themes—life’s transience, the passage of time, and the meaning of living—it’s also marked by its positive message.
Give it a listen when you need a boost in motivation!
modern strange cowboyGRANRODEO
It’s the opening theme of the anime NEEDLESS.
The powerful voice of vocalist Kisho Taniyama matches perfectly with the fast-paced composition, and the chorus in particular is incredibly energizing.
I’ve heard the group originally formed during a karaoke outing, which makes perfect sense given their vocal prowess.
Zankyo SankaAimer
Released in January 2022 as Aimer’s 20th single, this song was selected as the opening theme for the popular anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Entertainment District Arc.
It topped the Billboard Japan Hot 100 for nine consecutive weeks, surpassed 200 million streams, and received a Special Award at the Japan Record Awards.
Masahiro Tobinai’s bold arrangement features resplendent brass and strings that brilliantly capture both the opulence of the red-light district and the tension of battle.
The lyrics, imbued with a powerful resolve to overcome past pain and resound into the future, embody the very determination of characters who confront their fate.
Performed even in cheering scenes at Koshien, it’s a song cherished not only by anime fans but also by many listeners running through their youth.
Revolutionary Journey – On the WayAina ji Endo
This song, created as the opening theme for Season 2 of the TV anime Dandadan, was written and composed by Aina the End.
It will be released digitally in July 2025, followed by physical releases in two formats—CD and Blu-ray—in September.
Its exhilarating sound layers with a mysterious melody, conveying the protagonists’ determination to fight to protect what’s precious to them in a straightforward way.
As Aina herself says, she “reduced the distortion in her voice and sang straightforwardly,” resulting in a clear and powerful vocal performance.
It perfectly matches the anime’s worldview, where the occult and youth intersect.
It’s a track we recommend when you want to keep moving forward or need a push on your back.
