"Chōzetsu Dynamic!" (Japanese: 超絶☆ダイナミック！ Hepburn: Chōzetsu Dainamikku, "Excellent Dynamic!") is the fourteenth single by Japanese rock musician Kazuya Yoshii, released on October 7, 2015. It is the opening theme song of the Dragon Ball Super anime.
Details
While Yoshii composed "Chōzetsu Dynamic!", the lyrics were penned by Yukinojo Mori, who has written numerous songs for the Dragon Ball series.[1]
The single also includes a cover of "Romantic Ageru yo", the closing theme of the original Dragon Ball anime, instrumental versions of these two songs, and an English-language version of the title track. Yoshii's former The Yellow Monkey band mate, Hideaki Kikuchi, performs guitar on "Romantic Ageru yo".[2]
The limited edition of the single, which has a slightly different cover, comes with a DVD that includes the music videos for "Chōzetsu Dynamic!" and his previous single "Clear", as well as two versions of the video for "(Everybody is) Like a Starlight".[2]
