Ryushen x Yumeoi - Pretender: Hmm... somewhere between 7.5 & 8, but I'm feeling generous right now, so let's go ahead with the 8 tonight.

Voices go together surprisingly well, especially for being an unofficial pairing. The original version of the song has official English subtitles with some interesting lines--nothing super amazing, but wishing for different worldlines and personalities, it comes very close to pushing certain buttons of mine.

[EDIT: To clarify, I'm praising the lyrics in general, not trying to draw any distinctions between the suggested song and the original. Only watched the original version to get the lyrics displayed alongside the song, though the original did turn out to be rather good itself. ]

Souya Ichika - Pretender: 7.4 feels about right. It's not bad, but I like the duet version & the original version more, which likely hurts this a bit.

Shirokaden x Amenosei - Teo: 4.9. It's a good video, but I'm not wild for either of the two singers here and I don't really care about the lyrics. On the positive side, I actively dislike the original Hatsune Miku version of the song, so it's likely I just don't like the song no matter who or what is performing it.

...well that wasn't actually a positive comment, but "I do like them significantly more than the original performer" was meant to be. Just came off harsher than I meant to after such a bad reaction to the original.



Shirokaden - Freedom Freezer: Somewhere between 3 and 5. My first thought is that it's a joke nomination that I don't particularly find funny, skewing it towards the low end... but I grudgingly have to admit that it's somewhat catchy and should probably give it at least a 5 anyway.

Shirokaden singing about a tree: I want to like Shirokaden, the articles I find about him are great (particularly that he has a rice cooker he pets instead of a cat), but I'm not really into any of these three songs. 4-ish.



I think that gets through all the VTubers. That leaves some random Bloodywood songs and the rest of Vola's album. Was going to take care of Bloodywood tonight, but my headphones are now complaining that they need to be charged, so that'll have to wait until tomorrow.
