HontoNEW!sumika

sumika / Honto【Music Video】
HontoNEW!sumika

Lately, the band sumika has been on a hot streak of sales.

In a Japanese music scene where high-pitched vocalists are the norm, sumika’s Kenta Kataoka stands out with an alluring, richly resonant low voice.

For those who struggle with higher ranges, their songs likely feel easier to sing.

Honto is a particularly recommended track among sumika’s works.

The falsetto near the end of the chorus is a bit tricky, but there aren’t any other difficult spots.

Personally, I think lowering the key a little and singing the falsetto part in chest voice makes it easier to aim for a perfect score.

Aina the End – Takaramono [Official Music Video] (Theme song for TBS Sunday Theater 'Goodbye Maestro: My Father and My Appassionato')

This is a mid-tempo ballad that blends warmth with bittersweet emotion, capturing the full appeal of Aina the End.

The lyrics—expressing gratitude and farewell to someone precious, while facing forward and moving on—truly resonate.

Her husky, deeply expressive voice delivers the words with clarity, sure to seep into the listener’s heart.

The song was written as the theme for TBS’s Sunday drama “Sayonara Maestro: My Father and My Appassionato” and released as a single in February 2024.

Closely intertwined with the drama’s story, it heightened its most moving scenes.

It’s a work I recommend to anyone at a turning point in life or wanting to reaffirm their feelings for someone important.

Sora Tomonari’s track “Howl” was released in October 2025 as the ending theme for season 6 of the anime Kingdom! Its energetic sound fuses a breakneck, battlefield-like drive with a weighty rhythm.

Tomonari handled the lyrics, composition, and arrangement herself, and even collaborated with the American football team to record the scrape of protective gear—a testament to her meticulous craftsmanship.

Powerfully depicting the clash of convictions, this piece is perfect for blowing away everyday stress.

Picture a massive army on the march and let yourself shout it out at karaoke!

To where the starry sky fallsNEW!sekai 22-ban

You’ll be overwhelmed by the noisy, fast-paced sound.

It’s a track by Vocaloid producer No.

22 in the World, released in April 2026.

The hallmark is its inventive sound arrangement that traverses everything from glitched breakbeats to jazzy piano phrases.

That apocalyptic sense of scale—like a beautiful starry sky collapsing down upon us—is irresistible.

If you’re familiar with today’s sense of stagnation or the internet’s void, this will surely hit home.

I’ll make you HoYoHoYo♪ / Hatsune Miku × Silver Wolf LV.999 [Honkai: Star Rail]
I’ll make you HoYoHoYo♪NEW!Hatsune Miku*Ginrō LV.999

A pop tune that reconstructs a classic song from the dawn of Vocaloid in 2007 through the lens of contemporary game culture.

Released in April 2026, this piece became a hot topic as an official collaboration between Hatsune Miku and the genius hacker Silver Wolf LV.999 from the game Honkai: Star Rail.

While retaining the familiar denpa-style rhythm and bright electronic tones, the lyrics have been arranged to immerse listeners in the game’s world.

The video shows the two happily hanging out at an arcade, and just watching it will put you in a good mood.

It’s a playful track that will make not only game fans but also those who grew up with internet music culture smile.

After-school BorderlineNEW!Kafū × Shinsei Kamattechan

[Suite 2] KAFU × Shinsei Kamattechan #161 “After-School Borderline” Original MV
After-school BorderlineNEW!Kafū × Shinsei Kamattechan

This is an unconventional collaborative track by virtual singer KAF and the internet pop-rock band Shinsei Kamattechan.

Released digitally in April 2026 as the ninth installment of KAF’s collaboration project “Suite 2,” it features lyrics and composition by Noko, with arrangement by Noko and Atsushi Kimura.

The lyrics lay bare the fragility of adolescence and its misalignment with society, hitting hard with emotions on the verge of breaking.

Shinsei Kamattechan’s signature impulsive rock sound intersects exquisitely with KAF’s transparent, fragile vocals, creating a desperately beautiful synergy.

It’s a highly addictive piece of alternative rock that I especially recommend to those teetering on the boundary between the everyday and the abnormal, or to anyone who wants to let their emotions explode.

Wish Upon a StarNEW!flumpool

Wish Upon a StarNEW!flumpool

It’s a flumpool song that carries the classic feel of J-POP and rock while still featuring melodies that remain vivid and moving.

Released in February 2009 as their first major-label CD single, it was also used as the CM song for NTT Communications’ music distribution service “MUSICO.” With its driving sound and Ryuta Yamamura’s bright, soaring vocals, it conveys a straightforward longing for someone you can’t meet.

It portrays the feeling of “I want to see you” for someone far away, and the resolve to keep looking forward even while holding wishes that might not come true—making it a perfect track for those in long-distance relationships or separated by a new chapter in life.

Listen to it on a lonely night, and your heart will feel a little lighter, even through the tears.
