Pantans Vocaloid PVs

Pantans is one of my favourite ever Vocaloid song composers. They consist of Pantan-C and Pantan-D, a duo teamed up to create Vocaloid music. They create really good Vocaloid group songs, and have even 'put together' a Vocaloid boy group, 'Gensou Airly'. 

Pantans' Logo

So why do I like Pantans so much? Probably because of their happy, lovable songs that are mainly aimed at fan girls; their songs singing mainly about love.

Most of their songs are using their made up boy group 'Gensou Airly', and this consists of the 4 Vocaloids KAITO, Kagamine Len, Kamui Gakupo and Hiyama Kiyoteru. My official favourite used is KAITO, as he is presented as sweet and lovely in every video. Girls who like the 'bad boy' are more likely to go for Gakupo, the mischievous 'shota' lovers Len, and the smart, 'Gentlemanly' lovers may tend to go for Kiyoteru. But either way, Pantan makes every character loveable with their own presented features.

A lot of their songs seem to retain the same genre, but there are still different 'types' of song. For example, 'Indomitable Power!!' is more of a 'bad ass' song - for people who like more action, where as 'Have You All To Myself, Summer Girl!' is more sweet, for those who like songs of love. I still find, however, that all their songs are catchy, and a great bunch to add to any collection (although some guys may find them sickening...)

Here is my full list of Pantan songs. Although there is not many, I hope it to increase in future, since I love these guys so much!

1.  Battle Royal Valentine - Hatsune Miku, Kagamine Rin, Megurine Luka, Gumi, MEIKO and SF-A2 Miki

Released On: 13th February 2010
MP3: 4Shared
This is a really cute song containing all of the most popular Vocaloid females, and is a prequel to 'Your Highness, My Princess'. It is basicly a battle against time to give chocolate to the boys on Valentine day. I like this song as it's quite upbeat, although it lacks a PV which most Pantans songs also present.

2.  Your Highness, My Princess - Gensou Airly

Released On: 1st April 2010 (White Day 2010)
MP3: 4Shared
My favourite song <3 <3 <3! It's so sweet and innocent, and makes you wish there were more guys like this in the world... the PV to this is also amazing. Although simple, you just melt over those pictures... The song is a sequel to 'Battle Royal Valentine', and is a reply to the girls. It has the same base rhythm as the prequel, but is slower and more romantic.

3.  Indomitable Power!! - Gensou Airly 

Released On: 31st May 2010
MP3: 4Shared
This song is one of my best friends favourites, as it's more 'Bad Ass' and funky than previous released songs by Pantans. This song is about them overcoming their difficulties in their various lifestyles, and how they aren't going to be pushed around by others. However, they still remain a romantic side to the song, saying as long as they have 'you' they can overcome these difficulties they face.

4.  The Summer I Can't See You - Gensou Airly

Released On: 29th October 2010
MP3: 4Shared
Another loveable song by the boys, this time being soothing and peaceful. I didn't know about this song until quite later on compared to their other songs, but it's still nice if you want something calming. I do think the pictures could be better, as they can't really compare to the contents of other PVs. It goes on about the boys not having the courage to go and see their secret crush over the summer, and although you can get jealous of the girl they represent as their crush (lol), it's still reminiscent on past experiences that everyone's had in their life.

5.  Brilliant◇Diamond - Gensou Airly

Released On: 18th March 2011
MP3: 4Shared
Another song by the boys. This theme is a lot more similar to indomitable powers than their others, and is very hard to type! Lol...

6. Borderline and Innocent - Gensou Airly

Released On: 10th May 2011
MP3: 4Shared

7. Flowers Bloom In The Night Sky, Please, Summer! - Gensou Airly

Released On: 9th August 2011
MP3: 4Shared
I'm not as fond of this song, but it is still about as good as the rest of them. I suppose it depends on the person to what you like really... But it's quite traditional, with a J-Pop feel to it.

8. Again and Again (Because It's Destiny Again and Again) - Gensou Airly

Released On: 20th October 2011
MP3: 4Shared
Another cheery song about a summer romance, fitting also with the one below.

9. Have You All To Myself! Summer Girl - Gensou Airly

Released On: 2nd August 2011
MP3: 4Shared
Another one of their best songs, It's another summer romance song, about a tropical island get-away. I love KAITO's picture in this, although Len's seems a little frumpy.

JITTER DOLL - Vocaloid PV

There are absolutely loads of Vocaloid songs and PVs, but I'd like to introduce you to a really good one - JITTER DOLL!

It is a really upbeat song with a PV that is quite down-scale - but attracted me as of its complexity...and of course because it was catchy. There are multiple Vocaloids who have covered this song, all who have done so incredibly well, my favourite being Gakupo V3's version.

Original Song
Name: JITTER DOLL

Vocals: Lily
Release Date: 25th February 2012
Composer: niki
Arrangement: niki
Lyrics: niki
MP3:  4Shared

English Lyrics:

Gazing at a droplet when the rain recedes,

The right eye connects to a power adapter,

Disorder, disorder,  With this temperature,

Everything seems to melt,

Go, go, With this hologram,

To a world filled with melancholy,

And I am manipulated, manipulated,
What can you see in that world,

The abnormal level of subconscious noise,
Humans, yes, still call this love,
There is no one who has not been granted with love, 

In this world of love and being loved,

Install the repeating history, 

And a whitish blue flash of thunder drones,
Connect, connect,  With this cord to a world filled with conflicts,
Dye, dye,  With a parasite ,

Into the bloodstream,

And what can you see, what can you see,
A flash of light breaking the sky,

The mad, uncertain power source,
Humans, yes, still call this life,
There is no one who anguish in tears, 

In this world of protecting and stealing lives,
Believe...

A trace of miracle in the clearing sky,
A trace of heartbeat in the blooming puddle,
Wake up, wake up,
The rusting gears start to move,
Connect...

Those who hold life,
Humans, yes, still call them humans,
There is no one who anguish in tears, 

In this world of protecting and killing people,

The abnormal level of subconscious noise,
Humans, yes, still call this God,
There is no one who bemoan with a withered voice,

In a world that can be salvaged while believing in God,
Believe...

Japanese Lyrics: JITTER DOLL Romaji Lyrics

Obviously, I also mentioned the different versions of this song. I'll post them below. Please take a listen :)

Cover: Kagamine Len

I found this cover really good, as it was clearer than most but still quite deep. It also has the full PV attached.
MP3: 4Shared

Cover: Kamui Gakupo V3 Native

This one is my favourite. Although his voice is not as loud compared to the music, his tone really suits the song, being is all deep and husky.
MP3: 4Shared

Cover: UTAUloid's Ritsu Namine

This is one of the most popular covers of the song. UTAUloid is a really hard program to get voices spot on, but the person who created this used the mascot's voice in a lower octave - making it (in my opinion) one of the best UTAUloid covers made. By the way, before anyone asks - Ritsu is in fact a guy who dresses as a female...

So, now they're all down...which one is your favourite? I know there is tough competition, but I suppose everyone will have their fave :)

Week Pick - Hatsune Miku PVs

Okay, here is a few of Hatsune Miku songs that I've took quite a lot of interest in this week.

I've decided to post a few songs every now and then for you guys to view - saves you taking ages browsing YouTube for the best songs to download or watch. Sadly for some fans, I won't be posting any Vocalo-Electro music, as there are so many similar videos and I'm not a big fan. Here, you are most likely to see PVs, popular and less popular, or my favourite picks off the site. Thanks for listening, and here are the tunes ~ <3

Heart Rhythm - Hatsune Miku Append

So jingly and sweet, this video is almost impossible to ignore.It's simply but lovely, and thought it quite a nice one to share.

Chaining Intention - Hatsune Miku

This PV is just amazing in so many ways. Although it is produced via MMD (MikuMikuDance), it is still one of the top PVs on YouTube. It was produced for Japan's 4th MMD competition, and actually won! And in my opinion, competition was tough in cup 4 (especially if you compare it to cup 1's winner).

Composer: Treow

Lyrics: NaturaLe

Video Creator: MatasakeP

MP3: 4Shared

Melt - Hatsune Miku

I love this PV. It's just plain adorable. Sure, everyone's heard of melt, as the creator is super famous, but this is the first time I actually watched the PV. I think it matches perfectly, as it is cute and sweet.

Composer: Supercell ryo

Best Hatsune Miku Image?

There are loads and loads of Miku-chan's images all over the net. So are there any more good ones to add to your collection?

All of the images here are off my photobucket account, so collected across the entire internet, so may not have a fixed location for where it came from.
I may post more at a later date, as my current photobucket had 322 pictures just in the normal Miku folder (there is many I like). Just in case you want to see my folder now, here is the link:

 My Photobucket Hatsune Miku Folder



My Current Top Miku Images:

Best Sweet Miku - Sunset Miku

Best Real Life Miku - Cold Miku

Best Abstract Miku - Raindrop Miku

Best ''Above View' Miku 

Best PV Miku - Romeo and Cinderella Miku

If you have any recommendations, post me a link :) I'd be happy to see them. Although I've got more than 300 pictures, it doesn't seem that many when you've had them a while.
There are a couple more I also liked, but since a lot of my pictures were the same size they didn't fold into the post very well. I'll post them at a later point.

Best Winter Miku - Smiling Miku

My personal favourite is 'Sunset Miku', so far. What's yours?

The Best VY2 PV's?

VY2 isn't the most popular of the Vocaloid 2's, but he's one of m favourites. So which songs are his best?

Fanmade Image of VY2 Yuuma

I'll give 5 of his best promotional videos, in any order, with their information. I know it is tough finding videos by him, but there are still many which stand out.

If anyone does not know about VY2 Yuuma, you can get more information on this post here:

VY2 Yuuma Information



1.   The Loquad On My Forehead is Bad

Song:                 Original

Publishing Date:  September 20, 2011

Composer:         uramanbou
Illustrator:           manbou no ane

Watch on  Nico Nico Douga: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm15658454

Yay! An original song by VY2. It's one of the popular songs by him, even though the title and lyrics are a little strange. It shows off his voice really well - and I think people have watched it more not knowing what the title is, as the one with the highest views is posted in Japanese. (And for those of you who don't know, a Loquad is a Chinese fruit)

2. A Clingy Boy Sticking For 15 Years

Song: Cover (Original By Hatsune Miku here: 15 Years Pursuing A Cute Boy)

Publishing Date:       July 11th 2011

Composer:              uramanbou

Illustrator:                manbou no ane

Watch on Nico Nico Douga: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm14989713

This is one of the most popular of VY2 songs, and has a really good PV to go with the song. Sadly, its a cover, and it would have been so much better to realise it as an original song.

3. Noticed

Song: Cover (Original By Hatsune Miku here: Realize It Already!)

Publishing Date:         May 3rd 2011

Composer:                Pettanko-P

Illustrator: Unknown... If anyone knows, please comment :)

Watch on Nico Nico Douga:  http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm14335903

Such a sweet song for him to sing, and I must say, it may be my personal favourite. Even the picture used is so sweet, and I hope more songs like this get uploaded to the internet.

4. Lightly, Lightly

Song: Cover (Original By Hatsune Miku Append here: Hirari, Hirari)
Publishing Date: November 5th 2011
Composer:         たまぁ～ずP
Watch on Nico Nico Douga: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm16081310

I like this video as it shows a lot of the potential of VY2's voice. He is one of the only Vocaloids that can perform successful low notes, and it gives a good show.

5. 1000 Cherry Trees

Song: Cover (Original by Hatsune Miku, here: Thousand Cherry Trees)

Publishing Date: November 5th 2011

Composor:        黒うさP

Watch on Nico Nico Douga: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm16082434

This one is a striking song, but doesn't really show VY2 at his good points. Still, it is entertaining, and the PV to go with it is rather good.

So what's your opinion on VY2 Yuuma? And what are your favourites by him?

Other Songs by VY2 I like:

Youtube: Albino, Blackboard, The Memorable Man's Daughter, Birds Across The Stars, Single-Mindedness, Encephalon.
With Gakupoid: Pok is Invisible
Nico Nico Douga Only: The Lost One

If anyone wants any more VY2 Music Videos, Please comment.
