The end of summer when I looked up at tomorrowHirohinata
A slightly unusual collaboration song that came about by adding music to an illustration I stumbled upon on the art site pixiv! A chorus you’ll want to keep listening to.
It feels like it casts a summer spell on people’s hearts.
It’s more than enough to make you want to experience this kind of youth yourself.
August, a sudden evening downpour and your shadown-buna
Why do summer memories claw at our hearts so? This song captures the feelings for the “you” who was by my side on a distant summer day in its lyrics.
It’s a track by n-buna, also known for “Toumei Elegy.” Released in 2012, it quickly became popular.
The reverb-drenched guitar solo gently stirs the eardrums.

An oriental piece that gives a modern finish to a traditional Japanese sound.
Created by the multi-creator Onyx Kobayashi and released in 2015.
It evokes the melancholy of a joyful summer coming to an end.
This is a self-cover of the ending theme from the anime “Honto ni Atta! Reibai-sensei.”
Bluish DisorderNuyuri
It’s a fast-paced rock number that kicks off with a gritty, hard-driving bass.
Created by Nuyuri, a Vocaloid producer who also works as a singer-songwriter, it was released in 2015.
Take your time to savor the philosophical lyrics.
The understated melodic line is cool as well.

Not only the title but also the vibe is as refreshingly fizzy as lemon squash bubbles! The work “Lemon Squash” by Vocaloid producer Merokuru was released in September 2022.
It’s a cute pop song with a sparkling horn section that really sticks in your ears.
The way the protagonist eagerly waits for a message from their crush is totally “a girl in love” — super adorable! With its retro-pop feel, it’s also a great recommendation for adults who haven’t been exposed to the Vocaloid scene before.
