J5 is the official catalogue number of a piece of background music (BGM) composed by Shunsuke Kikuchi for the Dragon Ball anime in 1986. The piece debuted in Dragon Ball Episode 30 which was broadcast on 17 September 1986.
Overview
J5 is part a of the suite entitled "Pilaf and His Minions", which is track #12 on both the Ongakushū record and disc #2 of the Daizenshuu.
J5 is the theme of Pilaf's minions, Shuu and Mai, but in spite of them being an evil group bent on world domination, it ends up as a comical piece.
— Dragon Ball & Dragon Ball Z Daizenshuu (2:12a)
J5 was given the title "Trying To Get It Right" on The Suburbs of kenisu's Magicant,[1] the most common source for fan titles of Kikuchi's compositions. The piece was assigned the Kanzenshuu catalogue number of K-132 based on its placement in the series.
