Villainparticles (te-ni-wo-ha)

Villain / flower・Teniwoha

That rolled R really makes you want to imitate it.

This song by the Vocaloid producer Teniwoha, also known for works like “The Old Bookstore Mansion Murder Case,” was released in 2020.

The slightly off-kilter rhythm, the decadent lyrical worldview, and the bouncy melody all blend together to create an incredible level of addictiveness.

The word choice is brilliant, too.

“Villain” means “bad guy,” and the song likens the self who hides their true identity to that.

It really makes you think about gender and your own values.

The chorus really sticks in your head.

It’s one of wowaka, aka Genjitsu Toohi-P’s, signature songs, a famous track with passionate support and countless derivative works.

As I follow the lyrics, an image of a girl battling loneliness appears in my mind, and I get emotional.

The razor-sharp performance is cool, too.

FragileNuyuri

Nuyuri – Fragile / GUMI : Fragile

It’s a song that makes you think it will start with a light, sprightly melody, yet leaves a hint of something ominous.

The theme is forbidden love.

The title “Fragile” carries the meaning of something easily broken.

It’s a perfect title for a song that sings of forbidden love on the verge of shattering at any moment.

The piano that enters during the interlude is exquisitely sultry, skillfully crafting the song’s world.
