In a bit more than a week, on July 9, 2026, will be the 20th anniversary of the anime adaptation of Welcome to the N.H.K.As a way to celebrate it, I wanted to host another /a/ sings for it.The OP and ED were already covered 13 years ago. (I'm not the anon who mixed them.)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXNeWCQ_45shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_jUR7eZF_kThis time, let's sing THE one and only most depressing /a/nison, "Youkoso! Hitori bocchi" by Pearl Kyoudai.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZuIMcmNZnU>ResourcesThe starter pack with song, instrumental and lyrics can be found therehttps://files.catbox.moe/ne7bhw.zip>SubmissionSend your vocal tracks toanon524287@gmail.comor upload it on catbox.moe and post the link hereMore instructions in the starter pack>Deadline?Soft deadline is set to July 9, 2026I'm a bit late in organizing this so I might give more time
Nice I was waiting for this thread. I still need to sing
Oh yeah, also, if you don't think you'll have the time to sing or for some reason you are too embarrassed to do it, I don't mind if you only submit the "Knock knock knock" or the "Hitoribocchi" part. It's better than nothing!Although I still recommend to give the song a try. It is not that difficult.
how many people do you have so far?
>>288996259I'm at 10 currently. I'd like 20+ at least considering the short deadline, but maybe I'll aim for more if there's suddenly more interest.The song is relatively slow and calm though so I'm fine with low numbers.
>>288996931fitting for a NEET (hey I actually have a job!) I must wait for my parents to not be home to singperhaps I will sing
>>288996931I think we can get to 20
>>288997016I'm back at my family's house for the weekend so I couldn't sing either
>>289000039What's she looking at
bump
Some /a/nons were wondering about the Yuri Kuma Arashi /a/ sings last thread, so here's an update:I got a few submissions, but it was a lot less than the smallest projects have had in the past, and the threads were very short-lived at the time. The momentum didn't seem to be there but I didn't want to give up on the project, so I decided to postpone it to this summer. I think it's very likely that we will eventually get enough submissions for a viable project, it was just originally a bad time to start organizing a thing for an old show out of the blue when nobody expected it. (I was going to announce this postponing in March but that didn't end up happening for Reasons™, I apologize for that)>deadline?The current, postponed deadline is at the end of July.>resources?vocals, instrumental, and lyrics to help you get started: https://files.awaclus.eu/a_sings_yuri_kuma_starter_pack.zipvocal sheet music (optional to use): https://files.catbox.moe/ip7tk4.pdf>submission?e-mail your submission to awaclus@gmail.com or wait until there's a dedicated Yuri Kuma Arashi /a/ sings thread to post your submission in the thread, because it might get confusing if people are using this thread to submit to multiple projects.TL;DR submit to Youkoso Hitori Bocchi first because its deadline is coming up first, and then submit to Yuri Kuma Arashi while you're at it, we're still doing it.
I've been waiting for this
I might try if I get some time alone. I've been coming here for 14 years without ever contributing, after all. Maybe I'll have to take the car and find a dead end road in the woods or something.
>>288993773Cool this thread is back>>289003463Nice this is alive as well
>>289005017/a/ sings is healing
>>289005002It's time to sing anon
Glad to see we're still doing these. Guess it's time for me to participate after years of ignoring these threads.>>289005002I have the same problem. I'll see if there's a day where I'm completely home alone, otherwise I'm gonna do the same thing you're doing.
Lots of buildings have better soundproofing than you might assume, if you have any empty rooms between your room and where other people are. Someone would probably hear you on the other side of the door/wall, but two doors/walls with some air between them is very effective at blocking sound. It depends on the building of course, and if you don't have those empty rooms then it's a moot point, but in my room, I can have speakers blasting so loudly it's uncomfortable and it'll be completely inaudible two doors away. It's worth giving it a shot if you want to have the peace of mind to sing while other people are home.
>>289005002ganbare anon! always better late than never
>>289005002fortunate to not be a total NEET. will be singing at the top of a parking lot tomorrow night
>>289006803>>289005002my personal recommendation is to leave your door open, leave all the fans you may have in your room on the lowest setting, and scream as loudly as you can into your microphone for 30 minutes straight when as many people are home as possible.results may vary
bumping before bed
>>289010601good night
LIVE
>>289012840I want to sing at night you bitch don't go dying on me
>>289000761my rotten excuse of a soul
>>289005002>I might try if I get some time alone. I've been coming here for 14 years without ever contributing, after allI'm kind of thinking the same, especially because this feeling that we're circling the drain is getting stronger and stronger lately.But I don't know if I can get myself to do something like this.
Did someone say Hitori Bocchi?
>>289015902Youkoso...

Very excited to hear this
Very excited to bump this
>>289044690Agreed
Whats the key/chord progressions?
>>289045950https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/misc-cartoons/nhk-ni-youkoso-hitori-bocchi-chords-1410350using internet sugoiplay some tunes anon
>>289045950The main one is Em - Dm/F - C/GLast repeat before chorus is Em - GChorus is F - C/E - G - Am - Gm - F - Am - Em/G - D7/F# - F - C/G>>289046193as expected of the Internet, this isn't exactly correct
>>289028041That harmonica outro is so good
>>289046193>>289046476Thanks
>>289046476Any chance you are the guitar anon who wanted to improvise at the end with the Em - Dm/F - C/G progression? I'm just asking because I wanted to add some tenor sax for a few bars but I don't want to get in your way.
>>289048604I'm a different guitar anon and I only submitted my singing for this. I'm also not the organizer but I think the organizer can make it work somehow even if you both submit something.
>>289048604>>289048733I'll make it work!
