The Voltes Team’s march to battle won’t be complete without this playing in the background. This anime theme song has a marching beat and is as iconic as the whole Chodenji Machine series. It’s amazing how a few notes put together becomes an instantly recognizable intro.

Voltes V no Uta – ♫ TanTanTan Tanan.Tantan ♫. This is also part of the Robot Romance trilogy that includes Tosho Daimos. Chodenji Machine Voltes VĪnother great classic. Listen to it here and take time to listen to an excellent cover. Sung by Kaoru Kumiko with backup vocals from Ohkura Masatake. This song is pure poetry that tells of a person’s yearning desire to be with his/her lover.

The show’s ending credits begin with Erika flying ( Probably towards her lover ) in outer space with a galaxy as the backdrop, truly what dreams are made of and an amazing feat if possible. A song that reflects the emotions of two lovers torn by war they didn’t wish for. Listen to it here.Įrika’s Ballad – Greatly contrasting with the action-themed intro, this ending song is a slow, sweet and relaxing ballad. There is also a very nice though short metal cover of this song by the band Animetal.

The song features the manly voice of Isao Sasaki along with some children singing, creating an interesting effect. Tate! Tosho Daimosu – A real blood-pumping battle anthem. This is part of a mecha trilogy that has entertained many generations. Magic Knight RayearthĪ real robot classic. Nothing beats original, all other versions of this song seem weak by comparison. I feel sorry for kids of today’s generation who are denied of hearing the original version (the english dub of the song really takes away most of the magic). This very popular anime song is pure energy. The title is derived from a Japanese slang “hetchara” which translates to “No problem” or “I can handle it”. Listen to it here.Ĭha-La Head-Cha-La – This Dragonball Z theme song is a rich, grand opening song sung by Hironobu Kageyama who is also known for singing other various anime and tokusatsu theme songs. The image of a young Bulma near a window pane on a rainy day definitely pops up in my mind whenever I hear this calm, free spirited song. Romantikku Ageru Yo ( I’ll Give You Romance ) – This anime song is the memorable ending theme of Dragonball. With upbeat keyboard riffs and funky bass sounds, the song greatly enhances the retelling of Son Goku’s extraordinary pursuits around the world, to collect those magical dragon balls. Makafushigi Adventure! – Aptly titled, “Makafushigi Adventure!” ( Mystical Adventure! ) exudes a sense of travel and adventure. No self-respecting 90’s child has never heard of these songs.
