#i can 100% imagine an mid to late 70s sanrio co production anpanman anime in the pilot's stlye with this as the op

[anpansidequest]

not shuting up about a very specific anpanman song

everyone as of the posting of this is stil asleep

oh you're awake? great!

so a few days back i foud the great 2 hour long anpanman songs playlist on spotyfy and it rocks!

it has many of my favorite song and others that i never though i would see there/never heard before

i got to finaly hear omusubiman's theme and honestly new fav

BUT along the way i also found a new fav!

its caled kaiketsu anpanman (the great anpanman) and it was conposed by taku izumi and sang by none other than the BONNY JACKS! (they did the sining vocals in kindly lion and little jumbo) therefore is the most takashi yanase song ever

also the lyrics hit just as hard if not even harder than the anpanman march

check it out

my japanese is stil very rough and a translator can only help me so much but from what i seen THE LYRICS OF THIS SONG GO HARD

the frist part altrough good does not hit that hard but the second and third parts (wich are sorta sang in anpanman's perspective) are kind of gut wreckers

here's a rough translation of them as it folows:

"what in this world is happines?

for what do we live?

with my anko filed head i do not know

but i just cant stand hunger

being tasty is my sole purpose for living

anpanman

anpanman

freshly baked and warm

anpanman

anpanman

deilicous anpanman

stranger, why do you cry?

is your heart starving?

wipe your overflowing tears

when my life comes to an end

a diferent life awaits to be lived

anpanman

anpanman

freshly baked and warm

anpanman

anpanman

deilicous anpanman"

also the bonny jacks's vocals just carry so much weigth! idk where this song was featured (and if it was featured anywhere in the anime) wich is a shame bc this song goes so hard! perfect for a climatic battle!

also it kinda feels like this came for an alternative dimension where dreaming (the duo that sings most anpanman songs including the opening) never existed and they caled the good'ol reliable bonny jacks to do the job, or one where the anpanman anime came out in the late 70s or something

anyways that's all i have to say!
