A sky that’s more tearful than usualrereriri
It’s billed as the “supreme ballad,” but apparently that’s just by their own standards.
That playful touch is part of the charm of rerulili’s debut work.
It’s a band-style piece that lavishly incorporates the tones of acoustic guitar and piano.
The richly emotional sound is wonderfully soothing.

A possible epilogue to the stories of “Daughter of Evil” and “Servant of Evil”… or perhaps not.
As stated in the video description, please enjoy it in your own way.
Where will the bottle carrying the girl’s wish drift ashore? This work was released in 2008.
Future (someday)koki
This is a tear-jerking ballad where the beautiful voices of Hatsune Miku and Yamine Renri resonate in the heart, carried by a gently moist guitar accompaniment.
It’s a song you can listen to as an anthem to support you through the ups and downs of everyday life.
You can feel the gratitude toward the people who always support you, as well as the strong conviction that even if things are a bit tough now, the time will come when your efforts will blossom.
The message seeps into your heart and loosens your tear ducts.

“Singing in the Pouring Rain” is a work released by Shigure in November 2019.
It’s an original song written for the 10th-anniversary compilation album of Amau Utaeru, “EMERALD.” Its emotional, dramatic progression is captivating, giving the impression that feelings intensify as the song advances.
The lyrics, imbued with a sense of parting from a loved one, tighten the chest.
It’s a piece that makes you want to keep facing forward and moving on, even in the rain.

When I first listened to it, I thought it was a yandere theme.
But after learning the author’s story—“the emotions upon seeing his girlfriend in a vegetative state”—tears streamed down my face.
Interpretations vary from person to person, but when you consider why these lyrics were chosen, you can’t help but be impressed by the depth of the song.
