"Romantic Ageru Yo" (ロマンティックあげるよ Romantikku Ageru Yo) is the ending theme song for the Dragon Ball TV anime series, used from episode 1 until episode 153. The lyrics were written by Takemi Yoshida and performed by Ushio Hashimoto. As the major theme used by the program for the entirety of its run, the animation behind the theme was updated several times to reflect the changing plot and characters.
Production
The following production notes are included in the booklet accompanying the Dragon Ball & Dragon Ball Z Daizenshuu:
The ending theme, which could be called Bulma's image song, is included here in its TV-length version. Ushio Hashimoto, popular from her work as the host of NHK Educational TV's Tomodachi Ippai ["Lots of Friends"] and [as the singer of] the theme to Mami the Psychic, does full justice to Bulma's charm with her bright and cute singing.
On screen, [the ending animation] continues to use the methods that were well-received in the preceding series Dr. Slump. Although parts of it use original material from the animation staff, the vast majority comes from illustrations by Akira Toriyama, adapted for animation.
The lyrics were handled by Takemi Yoshida; the composition and arrangement, like the opening, by Takeshi Ike and Kōhei Tanaka, respectively. Actually, the lyrics were selected by an audition that was not separated into "opening" and "ending" categories, so they say these lyrics might actually have been submitted for the opening theme.
These notes accompany the TV-Size version on Disc 2; the full-size version on Disc 1 is accompanied by the full lyrics.
