Background and releases
"Space Dance!" is the debut single by Kotori with Stitch Bird, a Japanese music group formed to bring new direction to the music of the 2014 TV-series Yo-kai Watch, which "Space Dance!" is the 5th ending theme for. The song was choreographed by Lucky Ikeda, who had previously choreographed multiple other Yo-kai Watch themes, such as "Gera Gera Po" and "Don-Don-Dooby-Zoo-Bah!"."Space Dance!" started being used as the new ending theme to the Yo-kai Watch TV-series in the first episode of the series' second season, "Usapyon Is Here!". The single was released digitally on iTunes on July 11, 2014, and was later released as a CD and DVD on September 16, under the FRAME label. The CD release was bundled with a physical Yo-kai Medal of the character Usapyon, in addition to a QR code, that would give the scanner a digital coin to use in Yo-kai Watch: Wibble Wobble.
The song has also appeared in other pieces of Yo-kai Watch media, including Yo-kai Watch: Enma Daiō to Itsutsu no Monogatari da Nyan!, where it was one of the two ending themes, and Yo-kai Watch Dance: Just Dance Special Version, where it was one of the game's 10 songs.
