Overview

かせげ！ジャリンコヒーロー (Kasege! Jarinko Hero) is the first opening theme of the SEGA-published multimedia franchise Hero Bank (ヒーローバンク), spanning a Nintendo 3DS game and its television anime adaptation that premiered in 2014. The song was composed, arranged, and written by Takashi Asano (浅野孝) and performed by Nobuaki Kakuda (角田信朗), an enka and chanson vocalist known for his powerful delivery. Its title translates roughly to "Earn It! Clink-Clink Hero," and the lyrics center on themes of hustle, business opportunity, and fighting spirit, framing financial success as a kind of heroism. The track was added to maimai on the very same day the anime began airing (April 7, 2014), an unusual simultaneous release for a rhythm game at the time. Over successive maimai versions, it has been reclassified across multiple genres, from GAME to SEGA to ORIGINAL, before settling into GAME & VARIETY. Since transitioning to maimai でらっくす (DX), the song's original opening animation was replaced with a static jacket image.
