OPEN THE GATE

This is the definitive volleyball cheer song, filled with burning emotion and passion for dreams.

20th Century’s powerful harmonies and melodic sound deliver courage and hope to take on any challenge.

It sings about the importance of moving forward while believing in your dreams, even as you carry feelings of loneliness in the hustle and bustle of the city or a desire to give everything up.

Included on “Believe Your Smile,” released in March 1999, it was chosen as the image song for Fuji TV’s 30th Spring High School Volleyball tournament and as the commercial song for MIKI HOUSE.

It’s a track that resonates with young people facing adversity and with anyone determined to carve out their own path.

The piercing sound of the horn section lingers in your ears.

This track by the singer yama—also known for the SNS sensation “Haru wo Tsugeru”—was released as a single in 2021.

It serves as the opening theme for the anime 2.43: Seiin High School Boys Volleyball Team, based on a novel by Yukako Kabei.

The lyrics project a feeling that wells up from deep within: even if you’re afraid, you have to take on the challenge.

It fires you up.

Volleyball is a sport fought together with your teammates, and this number fits its competitive spirit perfectly.

Puppy lovearashi

Puppy love

A refreshing, feel-good pop tune that sings of the thrill of falling in love.

This number by the national idol group Arashi is included on their single “Tomadoinagara,” released in February 2003.

It was also chosen as the image song for the Spring High School Volleyball tournament, and its lyrics—capturing the tension and single-minded determination of players on the court—leave a strong impression.

The shift from the rhythmic rap part to the catchy, full-throttle chorus mirrors the flow of a match.

It’s bright and energetic, the kind of song that makes even supporters start moving without thinking.

With its sparkling sound, it gently gives a push to everyone striving toward their goals.

Wataru Maeda – Try Boy, Try Girl

This is a song by Noriharu Maeda that was used in 1993.

I loved it back then and listened to his voice every summer.

It’s a song that gives me a lot of energy and courage.

It’s got a touch of sensuality that makes it sexy and cool.
