A Vocaloid producer who is also a music writerWakachan Araki
I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

No matter how old you are, anime and anime songs are great.

ClariS “Koi Sekai” Music Video [TV Anime “The Saint’s Magic Power and the Black Priest” Opening Theme]

Koi Sekai ClariS

ClariS is a female duo known for numerous anime tie-in songs as their signature tracks.

Their song “Koi Sekai” is used as the opening theme for the anime “Saint Cecilia and Pastor Lawrence.” As the title suggests, it’s a love song that sings about feelings related to romance.

You can sense the dilemma of one-way emotions—having so much in your heart but being unable to put it into words—yet thanks to ClariS’s cute and refreshing vocals, it comes across as a song brimming with the feelings of a charming girl.

Enako feat. P Maru-sama. “Aiden TeiTei Meltdown” Music Video

Aiden Teitei Meltdown Enako feat. P Maru-sama.

This track is irresistible, with its dizzyingly fast-paced sound and a brain-meltingly cute vocal! It’s a collaboration between pro cosplayer Enako and multi-entertainer Pmarusama, chosen as the opening theme for the TV anime “ONII-CHAN IS DONE FOR!” which aired in January 2023.

It unleashes straight-up “moe” as a denpa song, expressing an identity in flux and collapse through a roller-coaster-like, ultra-high-speed trance sound.

Perfect for when you just want to empty your head and get hyped, or soak in pure, no-explanation-needed fun! Why not surrender yourself to this chaotic charm?

Himitsu no Akko-chanKyoko Okada

Himitsu no Akko-chan 1969 OP

Secret Akko-chan Kyoko Okada

Many women must have admired Himitsu no Akko-chan, who can transform into all sorts of people with her magical compact! Its opening theme is this song, Himitsu no Akko-chan, sung by Kyoko Okada.

Just like in the anime’s story, the lyrics depict her transforming into various things using the compact.

Even as adults, we can’t help but wish we could transform into someone we admire, right? Listen to this dream-filled song and, at least in spirit, become a magician who can transform into anything.

Rising HopeLiSA

LiSA “Rising Hope” -MUSiC CLiP- (TV anime “The Irregular at Magic High School” opening theme)

Rising HopeLiSA

Speaking of LiSA, it’s all about anisongs! She also has an image of singing mostly high-pitched songs, right? Among them, “Rising Hope” is probably one that many people feel is “so fast and so high… great to listen to, but tough to sing!” My students struggled with it, too.

Of course the high notes are challenging, but the tempo is also very fast at 190.

On top of that, there are lots of rap-like and intricate parts, so you want to make sure you don’t get left behind while singing.

Also, for the ends of phrases in the chorus, if you slightly lengthen them and articulate the vowels clearly, it adds to the vibe and sounds cool! There are lots of high notes in succession, but try to keep the sound resonating in your head so the pitch doesn’t drop.

LOVE or HATE?Mayu Maeshima

LOVE or HATE?

LOVE or HATE? Mayu Maeshima

Mayu Maeshima’s gentle vocals breeze into your heart like the wind in this song filled with positive energy.

Chosen as the opening theme for the TV anime “Villainess Level 99,” it was released as a digital single in January 2024.

Set to a catchy, pop sound, it powerfully sings about the strength to live true to yourself without being swayed by others’ opinions.

It’s a must-listen for anyone who worries, “I care too much about what people think and can’t be honest with my own feelings.” With this song by your side, why not take your first step toward being your true self?
