[Karaoke] Compilation of Japanese songs starting with “Mu” (1–10)
Muchako's SongNEW!Mucha Tanuki
This is a work released to the world by the gaming streamer Yukkuri Mucha-Tanuki.
It was released in October 2025.
It’s a character song featuring his own character, Muchako, as the protagonist, with lyrics and composition by Manmanmanzai and vocals by Hatsune Miku.
The lyrics carefully depict Muchako’s visuals and personality—even down to details like her sanpaku eyes and the absolute zone of her knee-high socks—set against the everyday routine of facing a display in a dark room.
The chorus is incredibly catchy and addictive, the kind that makes you want to hum along!
ImpossibleNEW!Miyamori Literature
This is a work by Fumiaki Miyamori, released as the official demo song for VOCALOID6 Kasukabe Tsumugi.
It was published in October 2025.
Centered on taut, intense romantic feelings, it portrays the urge to run away and unstoppable emotions with a pop sound.
True to Miyamori’s strength in dance music, the danceable sound arrangement is also a highlight.
Please experience that moment in love when, even as you feel “I can’t take this anymore,” you still want to move forward!
Pissed Off feat. Kiyotake Setoguchi (CV: Nobuhiko Okamoto)NEW!HONEY WORKS
This is a character song performed by voice actor Nobuhiko Okamoto, released digitally in October 2025 by HoneyWorks, known as masters of youthful romance stories.
The protagonist reunites in high school with someone they grew distant from after failing to convey their feelings.
The story’s charm lies in the heart-fluttering development where regret over not expressing their love honestly in the past intertwines with the hope brought by a second chance.
It’s a perfect track for anyone who’s experienced unrequited love or enjoys romantic narratives.
Moonlight ReverseNEW!Legal Lily
Released in August 2024 as a pre-release track from the album “kirin,” this song marks a major turning point for Regal Lily.
Having handled their own arrangements until now, the band worked for the first time with an external producer—Seiji Kameda—to create this love song.
While the chorus’s repeated, aching sentiments evoke a distance that feels farther than the moon, the straightforward emotions hit you squarely in the chest.
The sound, where fragility and passion coexist, will resonate not only with alternative rock fans but also with those who seek the lyricism of ballads.
In the music video, actress Hana Sugisaki stars, visualizing the heartache that resurfaces when looking at the moon.
Honoka Takahashi has said that the process changed how she engages with words, making this a work that signals the band’s next stage.
