Abarenbō Shōgun
In 1979 Kikuchi composed "Doraemon no Uta", the theme song of the "Doraemon" anime, which ran on TV for 26 years. Up-tempo works like those in "Kamen Rider" and "Abarenbō Shōgun" form the majority of Kikuchi's works, while his slow background music from long-running series have become some of his best-known works. Some notable works that he composed for, include anime and "tokusatsu" like "Doraemon", "Kamen Rider", "Dragon Ball", "Dragon Ball Z", "jidaigeki" such as "Abarenbō Shōgun" and "Chōshichirō Edo Nikki", and TBS Saturday-night productions ranging from "Key Hunter" to "G-Men '75" became long-running hit series.
