1925tomī
This is a song that resonates when you’re fed up with everything or feel betrayed.
Its unique rhythm and melody stick in your head.
It’s easy to remember, so it makes you want to sing it at karaoke.
The lyrics are striking for their clever wordplay.
I also like the slightly retro vibe it gives off.
Someone more important than metsumigusa
If your partner cheated on you, what kind of action would you take? This is a song by Vocaloid producer Tsumigusa, released in 2023.
If you follow the lyrics, I think you’ll understand what happened.
The music expresses the protagonist’s emotions too—the tempo suddenly speeds up from a relaxed pace, the vocals grow more emotional—and before you know it, you’re immersed in the world and can’t stop listening.
It’s such a dramatic piece that it feels like it could be adapted into a visual work as is.
EYEKanaria
The dark, stylish sound is irresistible! This track is by the Vocaloid producer Kanaria, known for hits like “KING” and “Envy Baby,” and it was released in 2021.
While the lyrics are in Japanese, the tuning makes it sound as if it’s being sung in English, which is a distinctive touch.
The word choice in the lyrics is excellent too—it makes you want to sing along as you listen.
Be sure to turn up the volume and enjoy! Kanaria’s songs feel simple yet deep, don’t they?
crying intimidationwiroha ringo
A song by Iroha Ringo that explodes with an emotional worldview.
Released in September 2025, this work is sung by Yukige and Kazehiki V.
Its lyrics focus on dependence, obsession, and the madness of love.
Every word carries weight, and before you know it, you can’t escape this world it creates.
Experience its dark yet pop-tinged sound for yourself!
tsuzumigusaiyowa
Sanrio’s character project “Maimai Maigoen.” “Tsuzumigusa” is themed around one of its characters, the Lion.
It portrays the Lion’s determination to protect someone precious to him, as well as the inner conflict that arises from it.
If you know the story of the work, you’ll be able to relate even more.
By the way, the title “Tsuzumigusa” is another name for the dandelion.
Keeping that in mind as you listen might lead to all kinds of discoveries.
Tie and Untie, Rakshasa and Skeletonhachi
Even from the title, it feels a bit deranged, doesn’t it? This is a song by Kenshi Yonezu, also known as Hachi, who is active as a singer-songwriter.
It was released on Nico Nico Douga in 2009.
The melody has a Japanese flair, and the sounds of traditional Japanese instruments are used abundantly.
The theme is “innocence,” but as you listen, you can’t help feeling that the word doesn’t only have a bright meaning.
It kind of sends shivers down your spine.
InterviewerKuwagata P
A world where even if I swapped places with someone else, no one would notice.
Is there any meaning to living in such a world? I’ve kept up appearances and stubborn pride all this time, but deep down I just wanted to be loved…
This song expresses those feelings.
If you listen to it when you’re feeling down, the tears won’t stop.
