This thread is for the discussion of anison (anime song), the genre of music made specifically for anime. Whether it be dedicated anime singers, voice actors, idols, as long as the song was made for an anime, it belongs here. Discuss your favorite anison artists and anime songs, and share your events and experiences!Discussion of doujin music, anikura, idols, seiyuu (outside of their music careers), and mainstream Japanese artists go in their respective threads.Previous thread: >>47459351

But yeah, hard to believe that they're both gone from the industry. They were such good friends and partners too, to the point that one of them was the designated successor. It's not just hard to believe but also uncanny.

>>47890976>she was just at AFA Indonesia a few months agoDamn, that was quick. F.
>>47890976She got married recently as well, no? Tragic, rest in peace.
>>47890203One is still providing a few lyrics every year and probably still happily involved in the industry. The other is dead. It’s not quite the same.
>>47891777It's just not the same when neither is singing anymore. At least I got to see both live, but it's still sad.
Anyone else here into Ami Wajima?

>>47917466Okui hasn't aged well
>>47920306To anison, the only countries that exist (apart from Japan itself) are Singapore, Taiwan, China, the US, and Indonesia. The rest of the world might as well not exist or be nothing but ocean.

>>47934176>>47934182Who?
Will be seeing kz, Chiai Fujikawa, BRADIO, sajou no hana, ASCA, and Nami Tamaki this weekend.
>>47920635??? >>47934912
>>47934922Cosmania mostly gets hand-me-downs for AFA and almost never gets big-name seiyuu.
>>47934176>>47934182Great body and great singer
>>47936167But who is she
>>47937794https://youtu.be/0me_7B2rRIEAsaka
I know nothing about Fujikawa since I never watched Shield Hero, is she any good?>>47937965She looks nothing like what I remember, at least not when I saw her.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7cp6OVa0Qchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNeKh1YxQio
>>47938576Nice
I know Asaka was a cosplayer but man.
>>47943606she claimed to be an f cup when she was 15
>>47944609>when she was 15her classmates were really lucky
>>47944709>you will never be her female classmate seeing her panties and pubes
Bradio was fun
https://youtu.be/Q658SxZRATQ>when she was 15
The dude in the middle is so dedicated to the ojamajo carnival wota. I've seen him in like dozens of videos too.https://youtu.be/2u-1FgW8HbI
>>47948002She has a cosplay book
I miss Maon so much
Why isn't the thread bumping?
https://youtu.be/TOO12a4GAosDid some janny autosaged us?
Nami kept showing off her waki earlier
https://youtu.be/wsKw_Astidg
>>47952093I know, but I was thinking about how she was already a good live singer at 15. Meanwhile, some of the newish anison singers like nasuo sound very bad live.
https://youtu.be/YPQZZMl8ZGA
So was Nami the Konomi of her time, or would that be Hitomi Takahashi?
>>47957004>some of the newish anison singers like nasuo sound very bad live.ASCA was really fun live but unfortunately she seemed to have problems maintaining notes. It was like she was running out of breath a lot.Also disappointed she didn't sing Prime Number, but I expected that. Though I did feel crushed when she called Koe her debut single rather than Prime Number. When we had our autograph session though she seemed really happened when I told her my favorite of hers was Prime Number.
>>47958713*seemed really happy
Kimi wa Meido-sama OP from tricothttps://youtu.be/fMLKOSJtDYc
>>47959969Tricot hasn't done many other anime stuff have they? I keep forgetting they're still around.
>>47963108I don't think they've done any actually
https://open.spotify.com/artist/2qP4MQzvWRkgVVNpxRVdm6>only 6,145 monthly listenersWhat went wrong?
>>47963149I could have sworn they did
>>47966106Feel free to post it if you think I'm wrong, but I just checked Wiki and they say the same as me. Maybe you are just thinking of a different band.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricot_(band)
https://youtu.be/mxFvmxalAvEHmmm....
>>47966483Weird
I wasn't even a fan of Sayuri and I'm still upset
>>47973135Do we have any information? Did she an hero or did her condition drastically worsen in only a few weeks?
>>47973408I've seen people suggest the former but I still believe it was the latter. I don't think her husband was lying especially when it's clear he loved her.
It hurts so much that Sayuri went to Indonesia instead of here, and not even five months after her visit she was gone forever and the dream of her coming here (and by extension me seeing her) is also dashed forever. I really want to cry.
>>47966106Not sure this is what you're thinking of, but their lead/vocalist Ikkyu Nakajima composed and wrote the second ending of Bocchi the Rock! and also recently had another anime ending for some random isekai under her project SUSU.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwHwv-lcxi4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlkDbaQpBcU
>>47981110Maybe it's a Mandela effect but I was thinking tricot itself, not whatever their vocalist did. It was before Bocchi so it's not that.
When and why did LiSA become so unbearable? I really liked her songs in the early 2010s when she was just Sony's go-to anison singer but today she has taken on this weird sexy image that feels completely out of place and all of her live shows are overproduced and filled with tons of distracting nonsense.
>>47981511One word: Gurenge.Though I wonder how much of a factor Tatsuhisa and the baby are.> today she has taken on this weird sexy image Are you suggesting that's a bad thing?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wwy3f3GZ_UADoes this count here even if the artist is a K-Pop group?
Do you like Miku Itou's music?
>>47988573Absolutely not and I refuse to call it music
>>47988628Why?
Imagine all the koebuta making their tributes to Miku today
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfL77tpX8AM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdxa0T6wOwgUnderrated song by an underrated singer
Seriously: more people need to appreciate SennaRin
>>47981511But LiSA is good
>>48002538Everything since Launcher is shit
>>47988573From watching animax and other concerts, I feel that she's a terrible singer.
>>48003294Also a terrible voice actress
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQ0QAbWZCKY
>>47999036Sawano songs sounds the same.
>>48005623They could just find her a new composer right? She can't be pigeonholed.
https://x.com/ASCA_and_staff/status/1235920419351232512Is this recorded or archived anywhere? I really wanted to see it and see her sing Prime Number.
>ClariS and Sayuri both went to Indonesia this year>neither even made it to the end of the yearWhat went so wrong?
Get a new composer for SennaRin, please

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBuznsRj7M4Even if the song isn't actually that good, I can't help but find it catchy
>>48038162LiSA 2.0 with a less gratting voice.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2dBykuDJgA
>>48046026But LiSA's good
>>48051393Maybe 10 years ago
>>48051474She still does bangers
I still miss Maon so much
How can anyone dislike LiSA?
>>47902042Should I watch Urusai Yatsura
>>48057989No
>>48059972Is it bad?
>>48060138I haven't watched it, but people who grew up with the original don't seem to like it all that well.

Getting worried for SennaRin
>already a year since SennaRin's last tie-up>they didn't even get her for the new Bleach seasonPlease don't tell me they already abandoned her.
MKL fuck off
>>48085376But this is the MKL thread.
>>48085376Is it wrong to be worried about SennaRin?
I need to ask this (although I think it is related to the topic of the thread)How long does it normally take for a song that was released in an opening to be released in its full version on digital media?I would like to be able to hear Jaka Jaan by C&K & Zeed in full as soon as possible but it is strange that it has been 3 weeks and it is still not available.
>>48091485It depends. It's faster now, but sometimes it can take up to a month or two.
>>48091485That's actually the exception now. Most full versions for an OP or ED are now out between the day of the first episode, to at most a week after. I'm not sure when or why the change happened but it started a few years ago, I guess around the time anime music became more available on places like Spotify and Apple Music. Something like the Love Live Superstar OP and ED still not being out is actually very unusual by today's standards.
