About the song

"Want to Be Winner!" is the opening theme for the 2012 television anime Medaka Box (めだかボックス), animated by Gainax. Megumi Ogata performs the song for the series, where it introduces the show's fast-moving school setting and competitive spirit. Its 2012 run ties it directly to the first television adaptation.

Built as a brisk J-Pop theme, the track pushes forward with a bright, urgent pulse and a direct vocal delivery. Its compact structure and energetic refrain give the opening immediate lift, while the melody balances pep with determination rather than sweetness alone. The result is assertive from the first bars and well matched to the series' hyperactive pace.

The song later appeared on Ogata's 2013 release Desire -希望-, issued on November 27, 2013. That later appearance places the anime theme within her recording catalog. Ogata also voices Kikaijima Mogana in Medaka Box, giving the opening an added connection to the show's cast.
