Player Chants
About cheering style
Hanshin Tigers are well known for its cheering style, singing chants made for each players, and taking the rhythm by smacking “kung-fu bats” ……
If so, I thought many people should be more than welcome to sing the chants from their souls…! But in Japanese?? The screen at the stadium only shows the lyrics in Japanese, so that’s not going to help…… Therefore, we definitely had to make the English version. These are all based on personal bias and prejudice, but we hope more English speakers will be able to sing the epic chants by the Hanshin Tigers. Don’t forget to get your Kung-Fu bats along with a cup of fine beer!
※ The “Japanese Lyric sounds” are based on the sound, making it easier to sing within a closer Japanese accent. Some chants may dramatically differ from the typical Romanized version.
