Hitster: Anison 2026

From the nostalgic opening themes of classic anime to the chart-topping hits of today's most popular series, decades of Japanese animation come together in a musical celebration. Featuring 308 anime songs spanning the 1960s through early 2026, HITSTER: Anison invites players to revisit familiar melodies, rediscover forgotten favorites, and test their knowledge of anime music history. Whether you grew up watching Astro Boy and Candy Candy or recognize the latest anime hits, every song brings back memories and challenges you to place it in the right era.

Hitster: Anison is a music-based party game in which 2 to 10 players listen to anime songs and attempt to arrange them in chronological order. Using the HITSTER app, a DJ scans a music card's QR code to play a song, while the active player decides where it belongs on their personal timeline based on the year it was used in an anime. Correctly placed cards are added to the timeline, gradually increasing the challenge as more songs accumulate. The first player or team to collect ten correctly positioned cards wins.
