Best Gatchaman-related theme song? Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Report Post to a Moderator        IP Information Go to the top of this page

I wanted to post a poll for this but I couldn't figure out how...

So I'll just ask. Which Gatchaman-related show has the best theme song?

Gatchaman Original Opening

Gatchaman - Second Opening

Gatchaman II

Gatchaman Fighter

Battle of the Planets

G-Force

Eagle Riders

Bataglia dei Pianeti

Commando G (Sorry, it's not the best recording, but I wanted a video without the kiddie singers)

Does anyone have more to add?

I'm actually leaning towards BOTP on this one... but without the voiceover.

This is a very difficult choice!

Even if I've grown up with, and humming, the theme of "La Battaglia dei Pianeti", I cannot deny that the best theme I like is that of "Gatchaman - Second Opening"!

For me it would be hard to choose between BOTP and the Gatchaman second opening.

The like the BOTP song for the nostalgic memories that return every time I hear it, but these days I have come to love the Gatchaman opening.

While the BOTP theme gives me a nice nostalgic feeling, and I enjoy some things about the Gatch II theme ("Ken! Joe! Jun! ... Jinpei, Ryuuuuuuu!) or even the Eagle Riders theme (memories of singing it with my nephew), my favourite is the second Gatch Opening (who can resist "dare da, dare da, dare da"?)


However, my favourite piece of music is one of the sadder, slower ones.

I don't know what it's called, but it kicks in here at 6.18.

That song is called Oozora no Chikai. And yes, I had to go check my iTunes to recall that.... Wink

You are lucky, I don't have my Gatch tunes named, only numbered. Not that I could remember the name if I wanted to.

Definitely a tie between "Dare Da" and "Battle of the Planets"...I can't choose just one!

I also love the campy disco music, though! Dazzler

CD, I think I'm the same. Not sure which I like better, but those would be the ones I'd choose.

It's a tough choice. Like many others, I love BOTP because it reminds me of my childhood. But "Dare Da" is pretty awesome too. I would say it's a toss up for me.

My third choice would definitely be Battaglia de Pianeti. Groovy!

Yeah! Nostalgia does it again - makes it hard to choose.

And, if we think about it, nostalgia is exactly why many of us ended up here in the first place. animepompom

Thanks! Do you know what it means? An internet translation program gives me "firmament" or "heaven" for the word "oozora" and "close," "near" or "oath" for the word "chikai."

I wonder if it means something like "near the sky," or "oath to the heavens."

I'm sorry, I have no idea... that's just what the piece was called. I should point out that it's buried in the midst of a much longer piece of music.

LMK if you don't have it available to listen to.

Isn't it?!! That's why I'm torn between it and the Gatchaman second opening!! But, as we're saying, nostalgia plays a great role in this decision!

The only thing that's not in place with the theme "La Battaglia dei Pianeti" is that it was played as an opening for Gatchaman when it's lyrics mention 7-Zark-7 and parts of BOTP (the direct translation of it)! This notwithstanding, it still has a permanent place in my heart!
