Weekly Vocaloid Ranking # 204 (August 22-28, 2011)

Since I'm on vacation today, I'm posting the Vocaran while we wait for Utaran :D. I looooooove this week so much because there are a lot of new, amazing releases from famous producers and new ones that have so much potential (I swear, I will stop using 'so much' so much). Because of the awesome new stuff, there are only a few left from last week's ranking, some of them pulled down as a consequence. Still, there are some surprising returns (Matryoshka, what!) and rises. I hope this week will also be an interesting listen for you guys, too, so let's get started.

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking # 203 (August 15-22, 2011)

Apologies that this is late again. I'm having problems with Nicodou today and I can't load the individual videos, so I just settled for the ranking video itself and the song previews. Sorry of the comments are much more unhelpful than usual ^^;.

It's MMD cup season so you'll be seeing a lot of MMD videos. There's also quite a lot of Rin, which means variety from the GUMI-fest we had recently. You'll notice in the history from this ranking and the previous that last year, around this time was the time popular producers started using GUMI (hachi, SignalP, etc.), probably signifying her rise in popularity, too :). It's been a year since Matryoshka, WTF.... I am still looping it..........

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking # 198 (July 11-18, 2011)

Hello guys. It's been a while since I last wrote a post and I know the lateness of this is inexcusable. I'm really sorry. Work has been killing me right now (I'm on overtime until 11PM for the sixth day OTL). Please, please forgive me again this time for the lack of interesting stuff to say.

Anyway, this week, Nem continues his reign on number 1, but for a different song. Episode.0 also saw another week at the ranking, thanks to Gackt's single being release. There's quite a lot of cute Luka songs released this week, but it's coupled by two unusual songs from UramanbouP and Kikuo's usual creepy stuff.

Weekly Utattemita Ranking # 141 (July 11-18, 2011)

This week is riddled with medleys and collaborations and Nyansei's and Tapir's (I think it's Nem's week). There are a lot of interesting uploads from both known and unknown singers, so please do go through them one by one. Of course, there are also the parodies, both SFW and NSFW but I'll let you guys deal with them ^^;.

Apologies again for the lateness. If you've read the utaran, you already now my problems with my Internet. I just hijacked someone's net for a while so I can post this. Again, lack of witty comments and stuff :(.

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking # 187 (April 25-May 2, 2011)

This week's Vocaran has a LOT of new stuff, most of them very awesome, so you guys better check them out. You might notice the descriptions are missing in some of the songs. That's because I can't load anything in Nico today and the ones I have descriptions of are those I've watched before. So, most of those written there are my opinions based on what I remember of the song (please kick my slow Internet). Sorry. ANYWAY...

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking # 186 (April 18-25, 2011)

Today's ranking has a lot of movements, especially in the old songs (I'm a bit surprised at the rises XD). There is also the Kira Miki Fest, which is why we have 2-3 Miki songs in the ranking this week. There are also a lot of new ones to check out! :)

As always, thank you so much to Iori-san for adopting the ranking and taking the time to upload! Let's also hope that sippotan and his house/family are safe and are near recovery! That said, let's go on with the ranking.

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking #179 (February 28 - March 07, 2011)

Not that many new songs this week and most of the rankings are just movements of those from the previous ranking. However, I hope you won't skip this one because despite the few new stuff, most of the songs are from Ps you don't hear from often or you might have never even heard of before.

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking #178 (February 21 - 28, 2011)

Today's week has a lot of movements, few songs have decided to do a comeback and take one rank up at a time, while a lot more had decided it's time for them to zoom down. Which leaves us with new songs in the upper rankings, all of them worth checking out! I apologize for the lack of good descriptions, as I'm running out of time ^^;.

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking #177 (February 14 - 21, 2011)

This is not a strong week, although there are a lot of new covers. It's just that you'll be seeing a lot of returnees, a couple of them caused by the number 1 song and the rest...because we love 'em? XD The rest are remnants from last week. Still, it doesn't mean there are no good songs this week. There are a few which are really worth checking out! :3

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking #176 (February 7 - 14, 2011)

What can I say about this week? There are a lot of new songs, from names we all know, but there are still a lot of the past week remaining in the ranking. So I kind of have mixed feelings over this ranking. The old ones are juggled up and down the ranks while the new ones dominate the top tiers.

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking #175 (January 31-February 7, 2011)

This week's ranking doesn't have as many new stuff as before, but the few new ones are all awesome. At the same time, there's quite a lot of movement among the old songs (and a few familiar ones are rising again...). Pardon the lack of intelligent comments (I'm mostly spazzing, it's unforgivable). It's 1AM LOL.

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking #174 (January 24-31, 2011)

I'm a bit late (by hours?) with this week's writeup, since I'm busy finishing some stuff for this month XD;. Anyway, this week has a lot of remnants of the previous rankings, but there are a few new songs worth a listen. Most of the old songs are at the bottom of the ranking, so it's apparent that the new songs are also top-notch. Super old regulars also showed some strength this week, either returning or not slipping away (yes, this includes daniwellP's nyanya song which is still stuck in my head XD).

I have a mod announcement coming up a bit later, so please wait for that, too!

Vocaloid Midyear Special Ranking 2010 2nd Part (GUMI Compilation)

The first half of 2010 SP ranking (GUMI part) can be found here. For an intro on the SP ranking, please refer to the Miku compilation!

This compilation has even less songs at 80, but I'm sure they're all worth your listen!

Since all of them are GUMI songs, I'll just type the song, composer, and additional Vocaloids used if there are any.

This week's ranking has a good influx of new songs although most of those from the past week are strong enough to stay (even if pushed down a lot). There are a lot of rock songs this week, too, as well as awesomely catchy ones!

I apologize for the lack of info and comments on the PV and images. I wrote this at work and my work Mac has no Flash (yay!) so I'm using nicosound to stream the whole thing x_X;

As with the utattemita ranking, this week is also productive in terms of uploaded Vocaloid works. So many new and pretty things are at the top this week, that they pushed the oldies down. A lot of genre are also covered this week, from hard rock to jazz to ballad to just plain eeriness XD.

This week's ranking only has a few new songs, but they're all wonderful. Most of the songs in the ranking are just movements from the previous week but there's a couple of surprising re-entries. Also, some of the songs in the higher ranks are from new and/or underappreciated producers so please look through them! :)
