-Song Stats: Rank-Up, Rank-Down, Unmoved, Unranked, NEW

• OP: 羽音りりオリジナル曲『ふわりり』 – Really calming and pretty! So realistic. Hardly any slur if this is VCV. Ah, I remember Lily! This is a nice original. Not to be confused with Vocaloid Lily, though she sounds kinda like it.

WEEKLY RANKING PART 1

• #20: 【チャージマン研！】モチ代！！【キャラソン作ってみた】 (Down from 5) – Still trippy… And I still do not recognize this anime.
• #19: 【UTAU】　響鳴　【重音テトオリジナル曲】 (NEW) – I love songs in this style. Teto looks adorable
• #18: 【波音リツ】ミリしらロミオとシンデレラ【ブレス込再Mix版】 (NEW) – Ritsu sounds good singing anything. As we all have found out. Why do you think Ritsu’s so popular?
• #17: 【UTAU】重音テトの暴走(LONG VERSION)【カバー】 (NEW) – Okay, this is too adorable! Dare I say I like this better than the Miku version?
• #16: 【雪歌ユフ】 雪花譚 【-オリジナル・PV-】 (NEW) – I don’t usually like a lot of Yufu songs, but I like this one. Hello kick-ass original. Pleasant surprise~ Hurray for Yufu’s Day? Yufufufufu~
• #15: 【UTAU】重音テトで「トリノコシティ」【カバー】 (NEW) – Teto’s voice actually works really well here. Too bad it has to compete with 40mP’s Miku, which is the BEST TUNING OF MIKU EVAR. =O I don’t like the Teto tuning on this one. Little reminiscent of the old UTAU days when the resampler sucked.
• #14: 【重音テト連続音】パラダイム【オリジナル曲】 (Down from 1) – Aww, at least it stayed in the top 20 in second week. But it’s sadly overstayed its welcome and must vanish forever… Wait, what?
• #13: 【雪歌ユフ】phone【オリジナル＊ユフの日PV】 (NEW) – Don’t like the song, but the PV is great. This is so cute and adorable I want to take her home. Good week so far~ Very artsy. Bit trippy. Artsy, trippy… same thing. 8D
• #12: 重音テトがDIVA2に出ない愛のテーマ (Down from 4) – I don’t understand the song, but I want that mug. How was this so high last week? Crypton can keep its Project DIVA… I want an UTAU-only edition of POP’N MUSIC! Make it happen, Konami! PLEASE make it happen!! I SUPPORT THAT, DEZ.
• #11: 【重音テト】 リペンティア 【オリジナル曲】 (NEW) – Too bad the producer of this isn’t in the box. I liked it. 1. Click link. 2. Read song description. 3. Find mylist/piapro account. 4. ???? 5. Profit!

THIS WEEK’S PICK-UPS

• #21: [UTAU 白鐘ヒヨリ]　Citrus　[オリジナル] – I love her voice. And this song too. Geez, I have nothing other than that to say really (so far for this week, I mean). She’s one of the best voices out there. Hiyori is indeed amazing. Himeka’s not bad either. HIYORI YES YES YES She is so underused. As is Hikari. Wait, who?
• #24: 【蟹音ぱん。】冬虫夏草【オリジナル】 – /refrains from anti-Kanipaness THANK you. =) But actually, this song isn’t that great. =( There have been much better Kanipan songs than this and it doesn’t live up to its potential.
• #33: 【松田っぽいよ弱連続音(+初音ミク)】ロゥアの唄【UTAUオリジナル曲】 – What a calming voice…. Too much slur on the VCV but I like the voice regardless. I’m the opposite: I hear some clipping. But it doesn’t detract from it. Sounds a little talkloidy.
• #36: 【重音テト】紅イ糸【オリジナル】 – Kinda boring.
• #42: 【重音テト】KISS【オリジナル】 – More exciting title plzkthx Right, ‘cuz the title is what’s important. 9.9

EXTRA RANKING

• #3: 5月22日の桃音モモ【桃音モモお誕生日動画】 – Is Momo being…yandere?
• #2: 【大誤解MMD杯本選】重音テトの凸待ち相談室-2枠目-【私オンリー】 – Loving the faces. USER CANNOT USE MOTION DATA I CAN TELL. Then again, neither can I…
• #1: 演奏できるスーパーファミコンを作ってみた – This still amuses me to no end. … Alright is the fad over next week? There’s less and less of it but there’s always ONE video.. I bet Mitsubachi is going to take over from here on out, as far as fads go. Though it probably won’t appear on the UtaRan. Fu…kki…re…ta!

WEEKLY RANKING PART 2

• #10: かぎあな、かざあな、かざりあな。／ほのか鳴オリジナル（UTAU） (NEW) – A great sounding UTAU here, plus a good song. Never seen/heard of this UTAU; She’s pretty decent! Yeah, she came out a while ago, but kinda flew under the radar, as a lot of UTAU tend to do. mia子 is at her usual greatness here. /runs off to search for download Sadly, mia子 doesn’t do download links. You’ll have to nicosound it. =(
• #9: 【重音テト連続音】相対評価【オリジナル】 (NEW) – It kinda looks like the artist who does Synchronicity and a lot of Akuno-P’s stuff.
• #8: 【波音リツ】カナリア【UTAUカバー】 (Down from 2) – Still awesome. slacking off in my Ran-watching prevented me from seeing this to DL last week. Oh well. Will take care of this later. Still here? STILL IN THE TOP 10 YES
• #7: 春香ロイド はるかっかにしてあげる♪【HaRuKarnival ’10】 (Down from 3) – This still baffles me. *facepalm* You can’t seriously be that unfamiliar with idolm@ster.
• #6: 【雪歌ユフ・巡音ルカ】 タメイキカウンタ 【オリジナル曲】 (NEW) – Picture looks anachronistic. I don’t think that word means what you think it means.
• #5: 【雪歌ユフ】紐帯少女【オリジナル曲】 (NEW) – Ohwow, two Yufu songs I like in a week? IMPOSSIBLE! Interesting song. Do like. Hurray for Yufu’s Day? HAHA THE NICOCHUU ARE ADDING SINGERS TO THE LIST. The mysterious masked Yufu!
• #4: ゆっくりに本気で『ブラック★ロックシューター』を歌わせてみた (NEW) – I don’t know if I’ll ever understand this meme, or whatever it is. BlackYukkuriShooter Fun with MMD
• THIS WEEK IN HISTORY: I’m still in love w/ number one. As am I.
• #3: 俺妹ファンアート　重音テトオリジナル曲「桃色しーくれっと.exe」 (NEW) – Bouncy. I like it. Besides the image that confuses me, pretty well done and very nice. Then again half the good originals have a vocaloid stuffed in it somewhere. I’m glad this is more Teto-central though. This was on the Daily Ranking when it first came out. Yeah. It’s awesome. (I’d tell you what the image means, but I don’t think you’re old enough~♪) I don’t think I want to be old enough.
• #2: 【重音テト】霞桜と､君に｡【オリジナル曲・PV】 (Up from 8) – I like the art a lot, just not the song all that much. Nicely done PV~ and a nicely vocalized track too.きのさああああああああん! Another to add to the PV fangasm list.
• #1: 【重音テト連続音＋初音ミク】モザイクロール【UTAUカバー】 (NEW) – I was hoping this would be a good cover, and I was not disappointed. I didn’t hear about this song until people started posting up the Teto version, so Naturally I avoided the Teto version first. Teto does a good job but, something doesn’t sit right with her singing this for some reason to me. Understandable. It’s a cover of a GUMI song. GUMI’s voice is naturally softer and more fluid, while Teto’s is more solid and vivid. That’s why Teto is good for strong songs. Anyway, this is okay, but you guys know how I feel about covers being number one. MOVING ON. How – how did you NOT hear about the Gumi cover first?!?!
• ED: 【UTAU】アンシャンテ【オリジナル】 – Oh I love songs like this~ They make me feel happy..OTL Well that’s interesting.ww But yeah, it’s a nice song. Is this Ruto and Tori or was I imagining things? I do not think you are imagining at all.

THIS WEEK’S UTAU TOPIC:
Here’s this week’s information corner. First we’ll be continuing the MMD Cup entries with UTAU characters in the videos. Here are the top five videos of the ones that would qualify point-wise for the ranking.

Next is the new voicebanks section. Before that, we’re including the UTAU N and Usagi with an apology, since we missed them the first time. This week there are 14 new voicebanks with the aforementioned two. Here are the top ten according to points. It’d be nice if you checked out all of the new voicebanks~

Ganne Risa

FINAL THOUGHTS:
Mixed bag this week. Found a few songs I really like, but also a handful I didn’t like at all. But seeing more originals than covers is a great thing (now where is my Ruko, Koto, and Tei??).

So I kind of MIA’d last week~ Sorry about that. Hectic and distractions were every which way and Lily also grabbed my attention again now I can listen to her. But, This week was pretty Teto at the end… Meh.

Kind of harried this week, so I’ll make this quick. Good week overall. Teteteto covering the top three, but good songs. As expected of the masters (Death Ohagi/Yurahonya, Kino and Murata for 3rd, 2nd and 1st respectively). A few good Yufu selections made the top twenty from Yufu’s Day, and that’s good, because for a while I thought I was the only one who cared about those things. ._.

(runs in, obviously very late) I AM NOT LATE! –pantpant- I have three excus- I mean, reasons to pardon me for being late. PSAT, ordering the BRS nendoroid, and recording Hana’s Chinese. So yeah. Anyway, I think it was a pretty standard week, a mix-bag of nothing really special with mostly Teto at the end. Ehhhhhh should have seen it coming.

Well that’s all for this week. Join us next week, and maybe we’ll see a wild Ito? ^_~ I hope you’re a fan of The Doors…
