Nobuaki Kakuda & Juri Ihata

Artist

カクダノブアキ アンド イハタジュリ

Limited-run unit pairing karateka and TV personality Nobuaki Kakuda with actor and TV personality Juri Ihata. Kakuda, from Sakai in Osaka Prefecture, serves as the highest-rank shihan of the Seidokaikan and is also known as a competition-oversight producer for K-1; he is active as a combat athlete and singer as well. On 'Kero! to March,' the opening theme of the anime Sgt. Frog (Keroro Gunsou), Kakuda's powerful male vocals and Ihata's adorable voice trade off superbly, painting a comical yet grand march of the invaders Keroro and friends — a song that has grown into a signature of the series across generations.
