Kakky & Ash Potato

Artist

Kakky & Ash Potato is a three-piece unit comprising singer-songwriter Shinji Kakishima (Kakky, vocals) and Ash Potato, made up of Shoichiro Aso (drums) and Shun Takabatake (bass). The unit was formed to record the ending theme Suihei Liebe ~Mahou no Jumon~ for NHK's anime Element Hunters. The song became a talking point across both children's and parent audiences as a sing-along periodic-table mnemonic built around the well-known opening line Suihei Liebe Boku no Fune Nanamagaru. Later editions adding newly named elements and an English-language Suihei Liebe ~The Magic Spell~ have made it a long-selling anime track with educational reach.
