NEW UPLOAD RANKING

o1. デュラララ!!の５人っぽく池袋ヒーロー歌ってみた！
• (DRRR! Parody) Bukuro Hero [collab]
• GUMI original by Hachi
• This is a 5-man parody of Panda Hero with DRRR themes with the singers sounding so much alike the original characters O_O.

o2. 折れてないマイクで空想パレットを歌ってみた
• Kuusou Palette [Dakishimeta Tonight]
• singer's mylist
• Kagamine Rin original by Yucha
• I really, really, really prefer it when Tonight sings jazz or ballads. This one seems a bit too upbeat and pop-ish for his vocal quality, but he sings it well anyway.

o3. 【むっち】　トリノコシティ歌ってみた
• Torinoko City [Mucchi]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by 40mP
• Welcome back, Mucchi! This song was raised a pitch to match Mucchi's voice and I'm not used to him seeing so gently and lightly like this o.o. At the chorus however, his voice returned to his usual liquid smoothness.

o4. 「ドミノ倒シ」歌わせて頂きました。/iciko
• Domino Taoshi [iciko]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by scop
• I like iciko's slower songs because of her soft voice, but she sings this jazzy piece wonderfully, too. Her voice is so high .-.

o5. 【マチゲリータ】僕はまだ本気出してないだけ【歌ってみた】
• Boku wa Mada Honki Dashitenai Dake [Machigerita]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by NashimotoP
• Machige-san...he's so cute... Machige does another cover of a severely rock and angry song and as usual, pulls it off well.

o6. 【童貞が】ビューティフルドリーマー【歌ってみた】
• Beautiful Dreamer [Bis]
• singer's mylist
• Megurine Luka original by DenshiP
• I like this one despite its electronic beats. Bis's voice here is autotuned so it blends well with the melody, and he sounds like a girl again (it's not a bad thing, I think XD).

o7. 【作った曲をコラボで歌ってみた】Sweets & Bitters【ゆう十（と）×ENE】
• Sweets & Bitters [Yuuto x ENE]
• Yuuto's mylist, ENE's mylist
• Luka and Gakupo original by Yuuto
• This is Yuuto's self-cover of his Vocaloid song, but with ENE as Luka. The song first their voices so well.

o8. 【佳仙ver.】左右 -みぎひだり-【歌ってみました(*´ω｀*)ｂ】
• Migi Hidari [Keisen]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by koushirou
• This is probably the best female cover of this song I've heard. So awesome.

o9. 【のぶなが】BadBye うたってみた
• Badbye [Nobunaga]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Koman
• Nobunaga sounds really good here except at the parts she's chasing after the words. She sounds a bit like Kushi.

1o. はちみつハニー　歌ってみた＊鳥子
• Hachimitsu Hannie [Toriko]
• singer's mylist
• GUMI original by papiyon
• This is very pretty and emotional. Toriko has a nice way of making her songs sound so dramatic and with the intricate piano melody here, she sounds perfect.

11. 『妄想スケッチ』を歌ってみた★実谷なな
• Mousou Sketch [Mitani Nana]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by 40mP
• Expecting this to climb next week, Mitani Nana delivers this song with her usual vibrant voice that adds life to the song.

12. 「ドミノ倒シ」歌ってみた【tane】
• Domino Taoshi [tane]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by scop
• Why is this man so sexy no matter what he sings? Anyway, I noticed tane's gotten better control of his pitches and he does very well at the low parts of this song.

13. 【童貞が】Corruption Garden【歌ってみた】
• Corruption Garden [Bis]
• singer's mylist
• Megurine Luka original by Caz
• This cover is so high, I'm reminded more of Kogeinu than Yuu XD. Bis's been trying a lot of genre lately, I think he can sing rock, just not this intense.

14. 【二人で】心拍数♯0822【歌ってみた】
• Shinpakusuu #0822 [Inocchi x Ahou no Sakata]
• Sakata's mylist; Inocchi's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by papiyon
• PFFFT I'm sorry I cracked up at the first part because I was surprised. But as the song progresses, you'll notice their voices blended really well!

15. 帰り道 歌ってみた
• Kaerimichi [Yamaneko]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by NioP
• I must say, this cover is beautiful. His voice is like Umineko's (or Tonight's), very rich and relaxing.





OVERALL WEEKLY RANKING

o1. 【RAINBOW GIRL(REMIX)】 歌ってみた　ver.Gero 【feat.ろん】
• Rainbow Girl [Gero feat. Lon]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Barujoa
• And the most special and obviously most popular upload of the week is Gero's semi-parody/semi-srs cover of the classic Miku song, with Lon rapping on the side. See notes below for more ...notes.

o2. 【そんなふいんきで歌ってみた】マトリョシカ【ぐるたみん】
• Matryoshka [Glutamine]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku and GUMI original by hachi
• Glutamine finally uploads a new work after his "more serious" covers. This one is not serious at all and has a lot of freedom, but at least he remembers the lyrics now XD.

o3. フリーダムに「パンダヒーロー」を歌ってみた【＿＿】
• (Freedom) Panda Hero [(_ _ )]
• singer's mylist
• GUMI original by hachi
• ↑09 This guy's name is pronounced as "Under Bar" and you'll be seeing him a lot in this week's ranking XD. I kind of run out of breath just by listening to him LOL.

o4. 【clear】『星屑ユートピア』歌ってみた【nero】
• Hoshikuzu Utopia [clear x nero]
• clear's mylist, nero's mylist
• Megurine Luka original by otetsu
• This notorious duo actually sang this song first in Clear's mini live in Tower Records last week. Now we know the reason they were 2828-ing before they sang was because they'll be uploading a cover of it anyway. Not a song I'd expected them to sing, but apparently, Nero loves this song. The blending is awesome as always, and it seems it's easier to differentiate who is singing which line...not XD;.

o5. 「BadBye」を自分で歌ってみた。【こまん】
• BadBye [Koman]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Koman
• This is Koman's self-cover of his own song, even if I didn't expect him to cover this XD;. It's because it sounds too rockish for him and I've never heard Koman sing something this upbeat. But he did it awesomely. I like how he rolls his words in the chorus.

o6. パンダヒーロー　歌ってみた　　vip店長
• Panda Hero [vip-tenchou]
• singer's mylist
• GUMI original by hachi
• ↓01

• rain stops, goodbye [that]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by NioP

o9. 僕はまだ本気出してないだけを歌ってみたったver.みーちゃん
• Boku wa Mada Honki Dashite nai Dakedo [Mi-chan]
• singer's mylist
• <Hatsune Miku original

• Another: Shiroi Yuki no Princess wa [Beeeeige]
• singer's mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by NoboruP

21. 「Alice -Acoustic ver- 」を歌ってみました by ENE

* More on Gero's Rainbow Girl for those who can't read the dialogues
- As you noticed, Gero (in the PV) is playing a dating sim where his object of affection is coughcoughAOIcoughcough. He has all the collectibles from pillows to action figures (which he peeks at for panchira), etc.
- One of the first dialogues was Aoi saying "I like that part of Gerorin..." and Gero replying with "Eh...!?" ... but he can't enter the screen XD.
- The next part was him choosing the line to answer (just like a real dating sim). The first line is him saying "Thanks, I also like Aoi-chan!" and the second line going, "I'll immediately become your straw to be peropero'd by you!" ...He chose the second line.
- Aoi replied with, "What is that answer, so disgusting XD;. (Gerorin, so stupid ////)" and Gero flailed over the serifu.
- In the latter part of the song, however, you get the feeling Aoi seems a bit more "tangible" or it could be just Gero's imagination XD;. Oh well, you'll see at the end :3.
- And at the end, we see the real Aoi-chan watching the video, which is "this video" and went "WTF IS THIS DISGUSTING THING?".
