“Mahou no Keshiki” was produced as the winter tourism campaign song for “Hirohako,” a project that energizes Hirosaki City in Aomori Prefecture and Hakodate City in Hokkaido.

Written and composed by ryuryu, an artist active in the Vocaloid scene since the late 2000s, the song portrays themes of beautiful natural scenery and cityscapes, conveying a message of looking ahead and overcoming cold and loneliness.

Accompanied by a laid-back band arrangement, Hatsune Miku’s clear, transparent voice evokes the feeling of a cold winter’s day.

It’s a Vocaloid track perfect for listening to slowly during the season when pure white snowy landscapes spread far and wide.
