[Nostalgic] Classic and Popular Anime Songs Recommended for People in Their 30s

Do you have any anime you used to watch all the time? I think many people had anime close to their daily lives—like tossing down your school bag the moment you got home and waiting in front of the TV, or getting excited talking about shows with friends.

Just those 30 minutes could whisk us away to a world of dreams.

As adults, we sometimes suddenly remember, “Oh yeah, I used to watch that back then,” or find ourselves humming the theme song without thinking—there are many ways we look back.

In this article, we’ll introduce a collection of nostalgic works for people in their 30s, focusing mainly on anime songs from the 1990s to the 2010s.

Be sure to read to the end!

[Nostalgic] Recommended iconic and popular anime songs for people in their 30s (181–190)

Interstellar FlightRanka Lee

The insert song from Macross F sung by Megumi Nakajima is a passionate piece that portrays a grand tale of love and adventure set in space.

It symbolically expresses a soul yearning for freedom and the young people who challenge the boundless universe.

You can feel a longing for a future filled with love and hope.

Released in 2008, the song has been widely embraced for its profound, resonant message.

Against the backdrop of space’s limitless possibilities, it beautifully sings of humanity’s smallness, beauty, and strength—truly a masterpiece.

Why not listen to it with someone special and share your dreams? You’re sure to have a wonderful time!

HIT IN THE USABEAT CRUSADERS

BEAT CRUSADERS – Hit in the USA [Official Music Video] | Anime “BECK” Opening Theme
HIT IN THE USABEAT CRUSADERS

For people in their 30s, BEAT CRUSADERS probably looms large.

Their masked performances felt so fresh at the time, didn’t they? Set to the band’s catchy sound and lyrics, HIT IN THE USA is a track that powerfully conveys the drive to chase your dreams.

Since its release in October 2004, it drew major attention through its tie-in with the anime BECK.

The pop yet aggressive band sound has a blazing momentum that gets you excited just by listening.

It’s a cheer song we want to send to everyone striving toward their dreams.

Even after the band disbanded, the members have continued to be active, but this is a classic that lets you feel the fiery passion of their younger days!

PoetSaburō Kitajima

Ojarumaru OP - Full by Eijin
Poet Kitajima Saburō

Many people probably enjoyed the heartwarming animated series Ojarumaru in a laid-back way when they were kids.

The opening theme here, “Yomibito,” brilliantly captures both Ojarumaru’s easygoing, relaxed personality—he loves pudding—and its refined Japanese aesthetic.

Amazingly, the singer is Saburo Kitajima, a megastar of the enka world.

It brings to mind Ojarumaru’s drowsy expression as he rides leisurely in an ox-drawn carriage.

I feel nostalgic for those moments from childhood—coming home from school, hearing this song in the living room or dining room, and watching the show.

In conclusion

Even if we lump “people in their 30s” together, there’s nearly a 10-year gap between 39 and 30.

So I’ve tried to gather songs from a wide range of years.

I’m sure there were works you watched, too.

Enjoy reminiscing as you listen, use it as a reference for karaoke picks, and here’s to a fun anison (anime song) life from here on out!
