Omoinotake | Hundreds of Millions of Light-Years [Official Music Video]

This is a medium-tempo love song imbued with an unchanging devotion to a beloved presence—one that never fades no matter the distance or the passing of time.

Featuring a refreshing sound with a horn section and the soaring vocals of Reo Fujii that resonate deeply, the track is a single released in February 2024 by Omoinotake, a three-piece band from Shimane Prefecture.

It became a major hit as the theme song for the TBS drama “Eye Love You” and was also selected as the entrance march for the 97th National High School Baseball Invitational Tournament.

Its message—that even if we can’t meet now, our hearts remain connected—offers comfort to the players chasing their dreams and to everyone who supports them, bringing warm courage to the grand stage of the Spring Koshien.

Kobukuro – Tsubomi

A signature ballad by Kobukuro whose lyrics, depicting both longing for what’s lost and hope for the future, strike a deep chord.

Created by Kentaro Kobuchi in memory of his mother, who passed away when he was 18, it was released as a single in March 2007.

Loved by many as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Tokyo Tower: Mom and Me, and Sometimes Dad,” it also won the Japan Record Award that same year.

In March 2008, it was used as the entrance march for the 80th National High School Baseball Invitational Tournament.

The image of enduring a harsh winter while preparing to bloom overlaps with the players single-mindedly chasing the white ball.

It’s a song for those pursuing their dreams and for anyone who needs courage during seasons of farewells and new beginnings.

M!LK – Ii jan (Official Music Video) [76th NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen performance song]

This is a song by M!LK chosen as the entrance march for the 98th Selected High School Baseball Tournament (Senbatsu) in spring 2026.

Released early in February 2025 and serving as the lead track of the album “M!Ⅹ,” the piece captivates with a message that wholly affirms being yourself.

The sentiment embedded in the title—“It’s okay just the way you are”—encourages those who face forward despite their anxieties.

It naturally resonates with the image of the ballplayers striving together as one team toward Koshien.

The song reached a wide audience, winning the Excellence Award at the 67th Japan Record Awards and being performed on the Red and White Song Contest (Kōhaku Uta Gassen).

Hachi MV “Panda Hero” HACHI / Panda Hero

Kenshi Yonezu, who is also famous as a Vocaloid producer, goes by the name Hachi.

Hachi’s hidden gem “Panda Hero” features numerous baseball terms in its lyrics.

With its catchy off-beat rhythm, it’s the kind of song you’ll want to replay over and over after just one listen.

The chorus lyrics are easy to remember, so you might find yourself humming it before you realize it.

to the endBaba Toshihide

[Official] “Until the End” from the DVD “Baba Toshihide Live Tour 2014 12 Love Songs”

Drawing from his background as a baseball-loving youth, Toshihide Baba has created many baseball-related songs.

His track “Saigo Made” (“Until the End”) expresses the determination to keep running toward the goal you envision, no matter what happens.

With seniors gone and a new lineup heading into the spring Senbatsu, you’ll likely face many obstacles that differ from the past.

Even so, this song gives you the courage to keep striving toward victory and toward each person’s individual goals without giving up.

Just as the title says, if you fight with everything you’ve got ‘until the end,’ you’re sure to find the light!
