Currently, "Where is your courage? In your heart!" (Love Live! Sunshine! Sunshine! 2nd season) and "Blooming Days" (THE IDOLM@STER CINDERELLA GIRLS GEKIJO 2nd season) are currently battling for the top position. Both are theme songs of popular idol anime series, but the former is a royal idol song by Aqours, who are also active as real idols, and the latter is a more character song with the charm of the characters in the work pushed to the fore. Both are pop tunes with a positive message, so it will be interesting to see which one will win out.

In third place, "Tokyo Winter Session" (Itsumo de Bokura no Koi wa 10 cm dakatta...) (Our Love Was 10 Centimeters.)" ranked in third place. The anime is based on the "Confession Committee: Love Series" by HoneyWorks, a creator unit active mainly on video distribution sites, and features three pairs of lovers played by such splendid voice actors as Hiroshi Kamiya, Haruka Tomatsu, Yuki Kaji, Kana Asumi, Kenichi Suzumura, and Aki Toyosaki. The ED theme song also maintains the relationships between the characters, with fun interactions between the lovers.

And No. 4, "Umaru-no Taiso" (Dried-up Little Sister. Umaru-chan R), is a fun song about the lovers' interactions with each other! Umaru-chan R) is a song sung by the voice actors who appear in the anime as a unit. Combined with the ED animation in which the deformed characters of "Umaru-chan" do exercises to the lyrics, the song is an upper tune that will make you move your body together with the song.

No. 5 "More One Night" (Shoujo Saikyoku Ryoko) is another techno-pop song sung by Inori Minase and Yurika Kubo, who star in the main anime series, as a unit. The song is also linked to the content of the film.

The other top six songs were "Step Up LOVE" (Bloodline & Beyond), "De naze na minus to plus ni okeru blend kou" (Blend S), "Hashitairo" (Whale Children Sing on the Sand), "Ring-cycle" (Mahoutsukai no Yome), and "twinkle" (Code: Realize ~Himekimi of Genesis~), followed by "twinkle" (Code: Realize ~Himekimi of Genesis~). All of them are closely followed by "twinkle" (Code: Realize ~Princess of Creation~).
