Soran JingiKitajima Saburō
Speaking of Saburo Kitajima, his vocals are known more for their rough, powerful quality than for delicacy.

There are no intense shouts; instead, the song’s expression is shaped throughout by dynamics and kobushi (ornamental turns).
Since it doesn’t demand fundamental vocal strength as much, it relies mainly on advanced techniques—such as the hiccup method frequently used in kobushi, where the voice is flipped—making it an especially singable piece for those confident in fine, technical control.
