Once you hear it, you won’t be able to put it down! 10 catchy and addictive anime OP and ED songs | From “Shikanoko” to “Lucky Star” to “Prince of Tennis”Anime songs are an essential part of anime! Anime songs are a popular music genre not only in Japan but also around the world.

Anime songs, which add color to anime, are an inseparable part of anime. The lyrics may not make much sense, but the same phrases stick in your head, and the crazy tension somehow cheers you up. Here are 10 highly addictive anime songs, from nostalgic to the latest!

The first song is “Shikairo Days”, the opening theme for the TV anime “Shika no Koko no Kokoshitantan”. It is sung by Shikabu (Kanokono CV: Megumi Han / Koshi Torako CV: Saki Fujita / Koshi Anko CV: Rui Tanabe / Bashamee Meme CV: Fuka Izumi).

The phrase “shikanokokonokokoshitantan” is a hot topic on the internet right now. A chaotic video of this mysterious phrase being repeated for an hour became a hot topic before the anime aired. It’s been a while since I’ve heard such a song that sounds like a real electric wave song!

This song tends to draw attention to the first phrase, but if you listen closely you’ll find that the music itself is really cool, with a cool, undulating bass line and guitar cutting!

This is a song that I would like you to listen to and pay attention to that aspect.

The second song is the opening theme song for the TV anime “Lucky Star”, “Take It! Sailor Fuku”. It is sung by Konata Izumi (CV: Hirano Aya), Kagami Hiiragi (CV: Kato Emiri), Tsukasa Hiiragi (CV: Fukuhara Kaori), and Miyuki Takara (CV: Endo Aya).

This song is full of electric wave song feeling from the opening line, and it can be said to be a classic addictive song!

The lyrics are by Aki Hata and the music is by Satoru Kanzaki, the golden duo of the anime song world.

When I first heard it, the lyrics were in a rap style and I couldn’t hear what they were saying, but now that I’ve listened to it so many times, I can sing along without looking at the lyrics. It might be more accurate to say that it feels more like I’m chanting a spell than singing!

This song, like “Shikairo Days,” also tends to draw attention for its lyrics, but it is a song with extremely high musical technique, featuring a funky bass line that makes heavy use of slap playing. The more you listen to this song, the more addictive it becomes, and even after 20 years, it has not faded and is still played on repeat by many people!

The third song is “Your Sea is More Than the Seven Seas,” the opening theme for the TV anime “Muromi-san on the Edge of the Sea.” It is sung by voice actress Sumire Uesaka. This song is also a song by the golden duo of Aki Hata and Akira Kanzaki, who also wrote the opening theme song “Take it! Sailor Fuku” for the TV anime “Lucky Star,” introduced in the second song.

The intro is already highly addictive, but the melody is based on ska elements and mixes heavy metal and Russian folk songs. In addition to Sumire Uesaka’s cute singing voice, you can also hear death metal vocals, making it truly chaotic!

And pay attention to the lyrics! Phrases like “Muromi, I’m here!” and “Muromi, stop!” make you want to scream along. Combined with the chaotic melody, it really makes it feel like a radio wave song.
