GeragerapÅ no Uta is the first opening theme for the Japanese Yo-Kai Watch series. The tune, which was used in the first 36 episodes, was originally performed by King Cream Soda.
The video’s description includes a brief description of the show’s premise:
One summer day, I stumbled upon something amazing…
One summer day, an average fifth-grade kid named Nathan Adams, comes across a strange old capsule vending machine in the mountains. He puts in a coin and opens a sealed rock capsule that emerges to discover… it’s actually a Yo-kai named, Whisper!
Whisper, a self-proclaimed “Yo-kai butler,” gives him a Yo-kai Watch that lets him see hidden Yo-kai all over the world. Once he befriends a Yo-kai, they give him a Yo-kai Medal that he can use to summon them when Nate needs help. Nate soon finds himself calling upon his Yo-kai friends to solve life’s everyday problems.
The English adaptation of Yo-Kai Watch will begin airing on Disney XD on October 5, at 5:00PM Eastern and Pacific. New episodes will be aired daily through October 9.
