Kuyoppen (CV: Haruhi Terada) / Irakkin (CV: Sarutoki Minagawa)

Artist

クヨッペン(テラダハルヒ)/イラッキン(ミナガワサルトキ)

This is a character song credit for the villain duo Kuyoppen and Irakkin of the Dark Eaters, featured on NHK Educational TV's preschool food-education program Susume! Kitchen Sentai Cookrun. The two characters are voiced by actor Sarutoki Minagawa and voice actress Haruhi Terada. Performing in character, they deliver the ending theme Makeru na! Funbare! Kuyoppen, a song that plays up the comedic, lovably pathetic charm of this bumbling pair of bad guys. Rather than presenting the villains as frightening, the song leans into their humorous side with a bright, cheerful arrangement that encourages young viewers to laugh along with them. Through this musical showcase, Kuyoppen and Irakkin get to star in their own upbeat number, becoming an unexpectedly endearing highlight of the children's series.
