Reach for the SkyKasamura Tōta
A song by Tota Kasamura that portrays the weight of emotions sinking to the ocean floor.
Released in February 2023, this work marks Kasamura’s 100th song.
Written entirely in English, GUMI’s strained, wrung-out vocals resonate deeply.
Through its vocal work and soundscape, it brilliantly evokes the ocean’s quiet and cold.
The lyrics carry both a yearning for a beautiful, unreachable blue sky and a profound sense of despair, gripping the listener’s heart.
Recommended for those who feel stuck in life or are seeking music that stays close to the heart.
Scenerinri
The heartrending ballad “Scene” featuring Meika Hime is also a must-listen.
This is rinri’s entry for “VocaColle 2024 Winter Rookie.” The lyrics portray a man who has lost someone precious, reflecting on his memories.
Watching the animated music video may convey the situation even more clearly—be sure to watch through to the outro.
Also, although it’s a ballad, the arrangement builds momentum toward the latter half, which is another highlight.
Sayonara, goodbyenoboru↑P
Hatsune Miku’s pop requiem.
It seems that while making a death metal track, it somehow turned into pop at the last push.
Contrary to its upbeat sound, the lyrics depict a heartrending farewell.
It’s available for karaoke.
A remastered version was released in 2020 and became a hot topic.
Poor fluffyMushipi
It’s a song where a sense of pathos seeps through the cuteness.
“Kawaisou Mofumofu” by Mushipi was released in January 2025.
The world woven by the vocals of Hatsune Miku and KAF mixes innocence with madness.
An innocent, fluffy creature is made to bear all the blame… it squeezes your heart tight.
Once you fall into Mushipi’s world, there’s no getting out—come and experience it for yourself.
RIP=RELEASEminato
This is a heart-wrenching work that portrays the pain of losing someone dear and the struggle of being consumed by love.

It’s an electronic tune with a mysterious atmosphere, featuring Megurine Luka’s expressively rich vocals that resonate deeply.
The lyrically narrative expressions, vividly evoking tears falling, capture listeners’ hearts and never let go.
A song that stands beside those who suffer from unattainable love.
It may become the key to unlocking the complex emotions hidden deep within your heart.
