The ending theme used from 1976 to 1979 was “Goronta Ondo.” It was performed by Nobuko Saito, the 11th “Uta no Onee-san,” and Ichiro Mizuki, who reigned as the king of anime songs and also served as the 2nd “Uta no Onii-san.” The Tokyo Broadcasting Children’s Choir also took part, and the energetic singing of the children left a strong impression.

In the middle of the song there’s a scene where the character Goronta competes with the children, and it’s said that the staging where a costumed character interacts directly with kids began at this time.
