The audition for the job of composing the theme songs to the Dragon Ball anime adaptation was held in December 1985.

[1] Composer Takeshi Ike was invited to participate by a producer who said he was good at writing melodies for girls, and given lyrics to two songs.

[2] Ike later said he heard that around 30 demos were submitted for the opening theme alone, indicating a big audition for the time period.

[2] The same producer, who was fluent in English, requested Ike create several different melodies for the part in "Makafushigi Adventure!"

But Ike believed it would not be a problem because Yuriko Mori's lyrics used katakana for the word, and ultimately submitted his first version.

[2] Singer Hiroki Takahashi recalled the song was difficult to sing, "I remember when we were recording it in the studio, there were so many little cues for timing that I had to follow.

[3] Ike composed "Romantic Ageru yo" with the image of Bulma and feeling like a girl in mind.

A "self-cover" version of the single, featuring Takahashi as the cover art, was released as an iTunes exclusive.

The song was made by a short-lived singing and dancing group of children/teenagers named Age of Wonder, led by Gino Padilla.

Kazuya Yoshii included a cover of "Romantic Ageru yo", that features his The Yellow Monkey bandmate Hideaki Kikuchi on guitar, on his 2015 single "Chōzetsu☆Dynamic!".
