Catch Me, Tonight. (Chorus ver.) – Leon Niihama

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.

It’s been gaining traction, with other users now uploading their own arrangement versions as well.

It sounds like it would be fun to compare the different versions.
