A song about a kid named Tarou becomes a minute of pure momentum, the kind of children's TV moment that sticks with you because it never tries to be anything more than joyful. Kiyoko Suizenji's voice carries the whole thing, direct, unforced, exactly the right amount of earnest. If you grew up on NHK or remember when music on TV could just be good without explanation, this is the feeling you're looking for.

Dosukoi!! Tarou is a one-episode sports-themed music video made for the song of the same name, performed by Kiyoko Suizenji (Tamiko Hayashida). The piece aired on NHK's Minna no Uta program, and Tatsuji Kurahashi handled its animation.
