TOKAKUKARyuji Akiyama
TOKAKUKA, a song written and composed by Ryuji Akiyama of the comedy duo Robert on a variety show, became a hot topic.
It sounds kind of cool, but in kanji it’s written as “都か区か” (To ka Ku ka), meaning “Is it run by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government or by a ward?” The song riffs on the curiosity about whether facilities in Tokyo are metropolitan-run or ward-run.
Even if you’re not familiar with Tokyo’s facilities, it’s a track that will make you laugh.
Come up with the title yourself.Maria (Miyuki Sawashiro)
It’s the opening theme from episode 5 of season 1 of the anime Arakawa Under the Bridge.
It’s a character song for a very sadistic character, and if you listen to it normally it’s full of things to nitpick and comes off as unreasonable, but it has a strange charm that makes you want to bow down if it’s sung by someone with strong vocals or by someone who can get away with it because of their character.

YATTA!Leaf Squad
Do you know the legendary sketch comedy show Warau Inu no Bōken (Adventures of the Laughing Dog)? Anyone in their 50s and up used to watch it religiously.
The song YATTA! was born from one of its popular sketches.
The flow of the sketch goes like this: something good happens to Uchimura, then the “Leaf Squad” led by Nanchan appears to celebrate him, they sing YATTA! and then exit the scene—and it’s hilariously well-timed.
The song itself is a celebratory tune you sing when something good happens, like passing an exam or getting a promotion.
When you want to celebrate someone, start by hyping up the room with this song.
If you form a little unit and perform it with a sketch-comedy vibe, it’s sure to be a hit!

The Farmer and the God: The Big ‘Ichimotsu’Doburokku

Released in September 2022, the track is a folk-style song carried by the light rhythm of an acoustic guitar.
It’s perfect for singing in fun, lively settings like drinking parties or banquets where everyone can share a laugh.
Why not enjoy the lyrics while you sing along?
