* Karaoke tracks only are in stereo.
* The numbers in a square correspond to the track number and you can choose the music you'd like to hear at your convenience.
* The CD contains the original BGMs used for the series (before the recording of dialogues and special effects on the film) and is similar to the original program. The audio quality of some tracks is not perfect but please consider that we had to use the original and old mastertapes in order to be able to release the CD. Finally, the numbers below the track names are the code numbers of the tunes.

All songs composed by Kitahara, Jun. Lyrics by Kawauchi, Kohan (series creator).

The full length vocal versions of the opening theme, Shine Shine Dan them and two ending themes are on the Natsukashi no TV Manga Shudaika Daizensyuu CD.
