Uplifting Anime Songs: A Collection of Masterpieces to Blow Away the Blues (71–80)
Limit-Break x SurvivorHikawa Kiyoshi
It’s an exhilarating piece where a vibrato-rich vocal style meshes perfectly with the fiery, quintessential anison sound.
The song was used as the opening theme for the anime Dragon Ball Super and is sung by the popular enka singer Kiyoshi Hikawa.
It was released in 2017 as his 31st single.
The lyrics brilliantly capture the world of Dragon Ball, winning over listeners’ hearts and making it a fan favorite.
But still—what can I say—Kiyoshi Hikawa is just an incredibly good singer, isn’t he?
Hunting SoulHAYASii
This is a track by the in-story band HAYASii that amps up the music of the anime Dandadan.
It’s truly “exorcism metal,” embodying the band’s role in the show of warding off evil eyes.
Just like its soul-stirring title suggests, ultra-fast drums and razor-sharp guitar riffs deliver a blistering power metal sound.
Vocalist Kishō Taniyama’s high-tone shouts are seriously cool, too.
The song was used as an insert track in Season 2, Episode 18, which aired in August 2025.
The creators’ playful spirit—goofing around with total commitment—produces the ultimate catharsis.
It’s the perfect song for reliving the excitement of the series.
A Sign of Courage ~Regain Theme~Ushiwakamaru Saburota
This is the song I want you to listen to when you’re swamped with work or assignments and need one more push! We all have those moments when we want to fire ourselves up and think, “I’ve still got more in me.” At times like that, this track will surely energize your heart and give you a boost.
The lyrics carry a powerful message that asks whether you can keep running without rest, giving listeners an incredible surge of energy.
Released as a single in November 1989 by Ushiwakamaru Saburōta—also known as actor Saburō Tokitō—it gained attention as the theme for a nutritional drink commercial.
It’s featured as an in-story song in a memorable scene in the anime Dandadan.
If you’re looking for the kind of power to laugh off tough situations, this might be perfect for you.
With punchy synths and rousing chants that lift your spirits, it’s a powerful, high-energy tune.
Butter-FlyWada Kōji
Digimon Adventure, a popular anime that continues to this day, was a cutting-edge work for its time with a theme centered on the virtual world.
Set in an alternate realm born from the link between the real and virtual worlds, it tells the story of boys and girls growing alongside digital monsters.
The anime, which began in 1999, enjoyed nationwide popularity.
This piece is the opening theme of Digimon Adventure, and its lyrics evoke the idea of growth that matches the anime’s content.
Moonlight LegendDALI
It’s the theme song from the anime Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, and among the series that aired from 1992 to 1997, it was the track used the longest.
Just hearing the intro brings that famous catchphrase to mind, doesn’t it? It’s been years since its release, but it remains a hugely popular karaoke favorite.
Willive
This is the opening theme that plays in the new chapter “Terastal Debut” of the TV anime Pokémon.
It’s performed by the globally popular group IVE.
Wow—the positive, energetic vibe with themes of friendship and adventure is irresistible! The song conveys a strong will to move forward into the future with the bonds you share with your friends close to your heart.
Released in April 2024, this marks IVE’s first-ever anime tie-in.
The members have reportedly loved Pokémon since they were young, and that pure affection shines through in the sparkling sound and vocals.
If you listen to it when taking a new step or working toward a goal with your companions, it’ll surely give you a powerful push forward.
Later included on the mini-album “ALIVE,” it’s a perfect track for the start of an adventure!
Getta BanbanSaka Tomohisa
This is the opening theme of the TV anime Pokémon XY, sung by Tomohisa Sako, who was hailed online as the “god of soothing voices.” Just listening to its irresistibly bright sound gives you energy, doesn’t it? The song carries a positive message of “Go out and grab your goals and dreams one after another!”—it feels like a powerful push to take action before overthinking.
Released in April 2015 as his 10th single, it was later included on the album “Boku kara Kimi e.” By the way, the coupling track was reportedly created at the director’s request with the theme “A letter from Clemont to Ash.” The love for the series really shines through!
