A Vocaloid producer who is also a music writerWakachan Araki
I started playing guitar in middle school and focused on band activities during my student years. I’ve been a hobbyist Vocaloid producer for over 15 years. After entering the workforce, I gained experience in various roles, including event sound engineering and videography/photography. As a writer, I’ve contributed introduction articles for music and manga websites, and in 2022 I had the opportunity to write the bonus liner notes for IA SUPER BEST. My specialties are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

Luka Megurine, a Vocaloid character with strikingly long pink hair.

She was developed as a VOCALOID-compatible vocal sound source character with a concept of a moody, husky singing voice—a slightly more mature image.

This article compiles famous and popular songs sung by Luka.

While her hallmark is a mature-sounding voice, that image can change dramatically depending on the song’s creator.

If you read to the end, you might discover a new side to Luka Megurine.

AfterglowJimmySam-P

It’s a nostalgic piece that makes you unintentionally recall your past self.

The song is by JimmyThumb-P, also known for “from Y to Y” and “No Logic,” and it was released in 2013.

It begins with a quiet intro, but pay attention to how it develops in the latter half.

The climax feels like an explosion of emotions that had been held back until then, and it’s truly stirring.

The lyrics capture the urgency about the future and the resolve to move forward—feelings that anyone might have in their youth—making it highly relatable.

If you listen to it when you’re feeling down after a failure, it just might save you.

It’s a message song that says it’s fine not to be perfect—as long as you can live true to yourself, that’s enough.

It’s a track by Vocaloid producer JimmyThumbP, known for popular works like “from Y to Y,” released in 2009.

The song keeps a rhythmic groove throughout, with crisp, catchy guitar cutting that lingers in your ears.

The sound arrangement has a mature feel to it.

And as I mentioned earlier, the lyrics—about doing what you want to do—give you hope for living tomorrow.

Of course, not everything will go smoothly, but I want to keep a mindset like this song’s.

It’s a poignant ballad filled with distorted guitar tones.

This song by Vocaloid producer KuwagataP, known for emotionally charged rock arrangements and highly relatable lyrics, was released in 2011.

The sound design gently seeps into the depths of your heart—just what you’d expect from KuwagataP.

And the lyrics, which depict a protagonist reminiscing about the past and regretting not expressing their feelings properly at the time, really hit home.

Perhaps because of that theme, Luka’s mature and gentle vocals are a perfect match.
