[Classics] Vocaloid Masterpieces: Recommended Popular Songs and God-Tier Tracks (31–40)
Drunkenness UnknownKanaria
The intertwined, understated melody and sound create an irresistible, ennui-laden atmosphere.
It’s a hit number by the popular Vocaloid producer Kanaria, released in May 2022, and included on the second album Kanaria.code, which came out the same year.
Despite its pared-down arrangement, Kanaria’s craftsmanship leaves nothing to be desired—truly impressive.
The lyrics depict a mindset of escapism and intoxication with fleeting happiness, portraying a protagonist who revels in a false sense of joy, resonating deeply with listeners.
It’s great for quiet solo listening and also highly recommended for karaoke.
it is that; the fact is (sentence-ending explanatory/emphatic expression)dai baku ha shin
Have you listened to “Noda,” which surpassed 1.5 million plays about two weeks after its release? It’s a track written by Daibakuha Arata, a Vocaloid producer who debuted in 2021, for the anonymous submission event “Mushoku Tōmeisai II.” Centered around a fast-paced piano melody, it’s crafted with a psychedelic vibe.
The standout feature of this piece is its use of Zundamon, Hatsune Miku, and Kasane Teto.
The three, each with a distinct mood and timbre, are harmonized in an exquisite balance.
Magical Girl and ChocolaitPinokio P
This is a song that portrays the struggles of a magical girl and prompts reflection on humanity.
It’s a work by the multi-creator PinocchioP, released in February 2022.
Included on the album META, it’s a piece notable for its cynical messaging.
The lyrics express dissatisfaction with having an “ideal magical girl” forced upon her.
Thinking that a magical girl might be fighting with these thoughts makes me feel complicated, but it’s not surprising she might feel this way.
Try listening while drawing parallels with how we live in modern society.
Marshall MaximizerHiiragi Magunetaito
It’s an overwhelming piece where the sound surges in relentlessly.
It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer Hiiragi Magnetite, who made a name for himself at the online event “VocaColle 2020 Winter,” released in 2021.
The low end that resonates in your ears and head feels insanely good! The bassline has a strong presence, adding thickness to the song’s sense of speed.
The development in the pre-chorus is memorable and works as a hook leading into the chorus.
And that’s exactly why the chorus hits so explosively!
KINGKanaria
You’ll be drawn into its dark world in an instant! This smash hit by popular Vocaloid producer Kanaria—who first drew attention with the debut track Hyakki-Matsuri—was released in 2020.
With its four-on-the-floor beat that makes your body sway, once you hear it, you’ll want to keep it on repeat.
There are tons of cover videos by singers and VTubers, so you might even know it from those.
It also made waves when it was included in the mobile game “Project Sekai: Colorful Stage! feat.
Hatsune Miku.”

See you in the next life!NEW!Satō Naiko
It’s a Vocaloid track that conveys resignation toward the present world and a sense of nihilism, and I find myself irresistibly drawn to it.
Co-created by Noko Sato and Utsunoki, “Best Regards to the Next Life!” is slated for release in January 2026.
The innocent vocals of Kaai Yuki and the UTAU voicebank Wakana’s chorus blend seamlessly into the polished electro sound.
Living while wishing for an end… it’s sure to resonate deeply with anyone worn down by daily life.
On nights when you want to forget everything, why not listen closely and let it sink in?
Love attributePinokio P
This is a work quintessentially PinocchioP, portraying the multifaceted nature of romantic feelings set to electropop.
Affection can feel invincible in its intensity, yet the slightest misalignment can turn into poison.
Is it pure love or mad love—where is the boundary? Like parameters in a game, the attributes of love fluctuate, wrapped in catchy melodies and electronic sounds.
It’s perfect for moments when you want to calmly reassess the instability inherent in romance.
