Songs used for anime dances on TikTok. [Popular & Classic] (1–10)
Toca TocaFly Project
Among the songs used for anime dances, one of the most widely known is “Toca Toca.” It’s a track released by the Romanian dance group Fly Project.
Later, a video combining it with anime footage was created in Japan and went massively viral, and before long it started being used frequently on TikTok as well.
Its biggest appeal is the catchy chorus that repeats the title phrase.
It’s highly addictive—you can remember it after just one listen and get hyped along with it.
WONDERFULGReeeeN
“WONDERFUL” has also become a hot topic because TikToker Shota Haya used it for an anime dance.
This song was created by the vocal group GReeeeN as the theme for the film “The Lord’s Bankruptcy.” The lyrics depict people supporting one another and enjoying a wonderful world.
I hope you’ll listen while paying attention to the intriguing sonic shifts, such as the key change midway and the hip-hop-styled section.
Also, be sure to check out the drama-like music video.
Chiki Chiki Bang BangQUEENDOM
Here’s a staple track for anime dance videos that’s been trending on TikTok.
Sung by QUEENDOM, this irresistibly catchy number incorporates Hungarian-sounding “misheard” lyrics.
Dance clips set to its energetic beat have become a massive hit on social media.
Released in May 2022, the song topped the iTunes anime song charts.
It was also used as the opening theme for the TV anime Ya Boy Kongming! and appeared in a drama aired in November 2023.
The lyrics, which capture the exhilaration of a party and the joy of the night, give listeners a boost of positive energy.
It’s the perfect track for practicing dance at home or getting the crowd going at karaoke.
Green Pepper ExerciseArima Kana
Oshi no Ko is an anime attracting worldwide attention.
Its in-song track “Piman Taisō” (Green Pepper Exercise) is also widely used for anime dance videos.
In the story, it’s a song that the popular character Kana Arima sang during her child-actor days, so the vocals have a slightly youthful feel and the choreography is simple and cute.
That simplicity makes it easy to imitate, which may be one reason for its popularity.
Incidentally, videos on TikTok that even recreate the green-colored costume are trending.
If you’re planning to give it a try, use those as a reference.
il vento d’oroKanno Yugo
I’d like to introduce “il vento d’oro,” an insert song from the anime JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind.
It’s a fan favorite, known for playing during the anime’s most exciting moments and for being used across other series as well.
Composed by Yugo Kanno, it features a rich, jazz-influenced sound built around saxophone, piano, and guitar.
The track builds toward the latter half, so using that section in a video will add even more impact.
SugarCrash!ElyOtto
Loved for its bouncy, hopping animation, “SugarCrash!” is also known for topping TikTok’s Hot Songs Weekly ranking.
The track is by Elliott, a new-generation artist from Canada.
While the sound is upbeat and lively, the lyrics depict a man who has lost his sense of purpose.
However, by the end of the song, he finds his answer and becomes more positive.
Catch me tonight.Shinhama Reon
The opening theme of the anime “Detective Conan: The Culprit Hanzawa,” “Catch Me Tonight,” is really popular too.
It’s sung by Reon Niihama, a new-generation enka singer.
While it has the weight of traditional enka, it also incorporates elements of kayōkyoku, making it approachable even for those who aren’t familiar with enka.
It’s a love song, but some of its lyrics tie into the anime’s content, and the simple hand-movement choreography is another reason it’s widely loved.
You should definitely give it a try yourself.
