Who composed Pokémon Concierge Soundtrack (2023)
Mariya Takeuchi is a Japanese singer and songwriter. She is the Theme Music composer of Pokémon Concierge. Her genre includes city pop, Jpop, soul, disco, & Kayōkyoku.
Note: Pokémon Concierge does not credit a separate orchestral score composer the way many Western shows do — Takeuchi (and, starting with Season 2, Tatsuro Yamashita) are specifically credited as the series’ theme song artists. For Season 2, veteran city pop artist Tatsuro Yamashita — Takeuchi’s husband and a bestselling artist in his own right — performs the new theme “ONOMATOPE ISLAND.”
She is one of Japan’s best-selling music artists. She created her singing debut after signing with the RCA record label in 1978, with whom she released her debut album, Beginning.
Her work includes Quiet Life (1992), Souvenir: Mariya Takeuchi Live (live album) (2000), and Viva Mariya!! (1982), Impressions (1994), Yukiko Okada, Mariya’s Songbook (2019), and others.
Theme Songs of Pokémon Concierge
- Have a Good Time Here is a song by Mariya Takeuchi: The artist released this song on a Good Time Higher album in 2023.
“Have a Good Time Here” is a breezy, welcoming city pop tune in which Takeuchi invites listeners to relax, unplug, and enjoy themselves — fitting the show’s laid-back resort setting. We’re not reproducing full lyrics here since the previously published text on this page was an unverified fan translation; you can find the official lyrics via Takeuchi’s label or licensed lyric sites.
“Have a Good Time Here” plays as the recurring theme across all four Season 1 episodes. (We removed two previously listed episode song credits — “Hitutoshite by Kaientai” and “Girl Friend by Karthik” — because we could not verify either actually appears in this series; the second in particular appears to be a mismatched Tamil-language track unrelated to this show.)
