Fujioka Fujimaki (藤岡藤巻?) is a Japanese folk band, created from two members of the 1970s novelty group Marichans (まりちゃんズ?, Marichanzu), Takaaki Fujioka (藤岡 孝章?) and Naoya Fujimaki (藤巻 直哉?). They are best known for their collaboration with the eight-year-old singer Nozomi Ōhashi for the theme song of the Studio Ghibli film Ponyo.

Former bandmates Takaaki Fujioka and Naoya Fujimaki decided they wanted to form a unit together in 2003. Originally it was titled Fujioka-kun to Fujimaki-kun (藤岡君と藤巻君?), however from the advice from their friend AKB48 producer Yasushi Akimoto shortened it. The duo debuted under SME Records in 2006 with the single "Yoroketa Hyōshi ni Tachiagare!." The duo released two solo singles and two albums between 2006 and 2007, however none of these charted on Oricon's charts.
