Let’s just run away / Otomachi Una

Isn’t choosing to run away a kind of courage, too? The emotional rock number “Nigechimaōze” (“Let’s Just Run Away”) was created by Aoki Gō—also known under the name Gogo no Tea—and released in 2020.

Its fresh yet slightly bittersweet band sound pairs perfectly with Otomachi Una’s strong, resonant vocals.

Maybe that’s why the lyrics’ message goes straight into your head.

I think it’ll give you the power to stand back up.

Escaping Spring / Aoji-sai feat. Otomachi Una

Energetic guitar rock might awaken feelings that have been sleeping deep inside you.

This track by Vocaloid producer Aonisai was released in May 2023.

Many listeners will relate to the protagonist’s inner world—carrying a sense of loss yet determined to move forward.

It’s said to be based on real experiences, which is likely why its message slips so naturally into your heart.

As you listen, pay attention to the rough-edged guitar phrases and Otomachi Una’s powerful, resonant vocals.

Utsu-P – Vulgar feat. flower

“Gehin” has also received a huge response from overseas Vocaloid fans.

It’s a work by Utsu-P, who is also active in a band.

The song packs a serious punch: set to a heavy metal-style sound, it’s built around shouting words that might be considered “vulgar.” It’s a pretty unusual theme, right? But it doesn’t stop there—it also digs into “love” and “humanity.” It’s simply cool, and its message really grabs you.

When the Anemones Bloom / Tsuruzou feat. Kagamine Len

“No matter how long I wait, I can’t wait any longer”—that overflowing emotion gives the song a sense of speed.

It’s a work by Vocaloid producer Tsuruzo, released in August 2023, and it participated in the Bokakore 2023 Summer TOP 100 ranking.

The track features a style that fuses rock and jazz.

The sparkling piano tones and restless, roaming synth phrases linger in your ears.

The arrangement perfectly matches lyrics that push to the forefront the feeling of “I want to see you!”

Sorry, sorry.100 vomits

[VOCALOID] Sorry, Sorry / Hatsune Miku [Vomited 100 Times]

The light, stylish sound arrangement might be what stands out at first, but what I really want you to focus on are the lyrics! It’s a work by 100-kai Outo, also known as the creator of “I can’t even become NANIMONO” and “Just praise me for being alive,” released in 2020.

Words with an incredibly good feel to them come crashing in like waves.

And once you hear it, the chorus melody will surely get stuck in your head.

Plus, as mentioned above, pay attention to the lyrical content that feels like 100-kai Outo’s emotions are overflowing onto the page.

The final chorus, in particular, is outstanding.

Killer QueenAyase

Killer Queen / Hatsune Miku

This is a work by Ayase, a Vocaloid producer who’s also active as a member of the music duo YOASOBI.

Released in 2019, its addictive quality grabbed listeners right away.

While many may associate Ayase with stylish, city-pop vibes, this track has a driving, rock-infused feel.

Anchored by a four-on-the-floor rhythm, it’s incredibly easy to groove to.

The dark lyrics also mesh perfectly with the tone of the song—it’s seriously cool.

Unlucky!Fushi

Unluck! / Fushi feat. GUMI

A feverish melody paired with a clear, straight-shooting vocal.

It’s a rock tune that you can’t help but groove to! Released in August 2024 by Fushi, this track also competed in the Vocacolle 2024 Summer TOP100 rankings.

The high-speed arrangement is, in a word, badass.

You can feel the determination to keep looking forward, even while carrying misfortune and frustration.

The guitar riffs are snappy and might just make you sit up a little straighter! The crisp vocals lock in perfectly with the sound.

Add it to your playlist when you need a quick boost of energy!
