[Easy Piano] Odoru Pompokolin from Chibi Maruko-chan / Opening Theme

The manga and anime Chibi Maruko-chan, created by Momoko Sakura, is a beloved national anime representing Japan, alongside works like Doraemon and Sazae-san.

The song Odoru Pompokolin used in Chibi Maruko-chan is the series’ iconic first ending theme, and it energizes everyone who listens.

It’s a great anime song even for beginners who are just starting piano and still working hard to read sheet music.

Since it involves playing the same notes in rhythm and the bass line is simple, it’s easy to perform.

First, learn the rhythm of the original song’s vocals and try playing the notes along with it.

Little by little, memorize the positions on the keyboard and shape it into a performance.

Once you reach the chorus, you can just ride the groove and enjoy playing to the end.

When you get used to it, try playing along at the original tempo.

I believe it’s the best song in Mobile Suit Gundam SEED.

The 21st single by T.

Revolution, the solo project of singer Takanori Nishikawa, renowned for his overwhelming vocal power and singing ability.

Known as a theme song for the TV anime Mobile Suit Gundam SEED DESTINY, the song’s ethereal opening—featuring a lyrical guitar riff and transparent synth sounds—heightens the sense of anticipation.

In addition to its high key, achieving the original feel requires considerable practice, including a rich vocal tone and powerful vibrato.

On the other hand, the melody is catchy and easy to remember, and the vocal range used isn’t excessively wide, so it’s a good idea to start practicing in a key that suits your voice.
