A track born from a collaboration with the manga “Chojin X.” It was released digitally in November 2024 as a planned project timed to coincide with the same-day release of Volume 11 of the comic.

Akiyama has apparently been a fan of “Chojin X” for some time, and while faithfully capturing the manga’s world, expresses it through a distinctive musical style.

The cool, band-driven arrangement pairs well with lyrics about striving toward an aspirational figure.

If you’re looking for a badass song, definitely give it a listen!

A vivid portrayal of the exhilaration of falling in love, Manaka Inaba’s solo debut single.

Released in April 2024, this song gives voice to a love that suddenly sprouts in a heart that had resigned itself to being “off-duty” from romance.

Its striking, heart-throbbing sound captures the start of an unexpected love.

Rumor has it this track brings good luck in love, so if you’re struggling with romance, give it a listen.

Surely, an “overwhelming” love will find its way to your heart too.

A funky and cute number with an ear-catching acoustic guitar slap.

It’s a track by singer-songwriter Anna Takeuchi, born in the U.S.

and raised in Kyoto, included on her EP “at FIVE,” released in February 2023.

It blends a variety of musical essences—hip-hop, Chinese-inspired elements, and the aforementioned funk—giving a sense of the depth of Takeuchi’s musical roots.

The lyrics, which remind us of the importance of living true to ourselves, are wonderful too!

Ring! All together, Japan!Hosokawa Takashi

Enka singers with a foundation in folk music are often seen as releasing many traditional, serious songs.

However, Takashi Hosokawa differs from that image, putting out many catchy tracks as well.

Among them, the one I especially recommend is “Wa! Moro Moro Nippon.” While this piece follows the enka tradition, it also incorporates a slightly rock-influenced flavor.

Perhaps because of that musical direction, there are very few instances of kobushi (ornamental vocal turns), and no complex vocal lines appear.

The range is a bit wide, so be mindful of key adjustments when you give it a try.

Someone more important than metsumigusa

I’d like to introduce “Someone More Precious Than Me” as a song with striking key changes.

It’s a piece created by Tsumikusa using Hatsune Miku.

The first half has a gentle, conversational feel, then the tempo suddenly picks up and shifts into a jazz-like sound.

There are other key changes sprinkled throughout, so check them out.

By the way, the lyrics center on a woman who rejected someone but can’t let go of her feelings and suffers because of it.

This complex situation is part of the song’s appeal.

I love MaidenHanyū Maigo

With its taishogoto-like timbre leaving a strong impression, “I Love Maiden” is a track by Hanyuu Maigo, a Vocaloid producer known for effectively incorporating traditional Japanese instruments into their sound.

The lyrics portray the feelings of a girl in love, and the spring-like sound will make your heart skip a beat.

Released on February 14, 2023, it’s perfect for Valentine’s Day.

This cute song will give you the courage to share your feelings along with a gift of chocolate.
