ABNORMALITY DANCIN' GIRL

"TOXIC YURI IS GOOD YURI "

"It's got a theme of butterflies. Like. Obviously it's a trans allegory, it's got an amazing ccolor scheme too (purple and blue are wonderful colors tbh frfr)"

"uhhh well maybe i'm stretching here but tame mene the main character of the song has a giant crush on miya nanamiya (another girl) so yeah i just love this so much"

AKATSUKI ARRIVAL

"When Magnet wasn't carrying Miku X Luka, this song was. Miku and Luka being rivals, only to realize that they only loved what they did when their rival was there with them. This is the Rivals to Lovers song. // Rivals to lovers. Doomed yuri. This song rewired my brain chemistry I love them so much"

"Two rivals whose worlds revolve around one another and for whom living without each other is difficult: what's more queer than that? Plus the MV from Project Diva is literally what got me into Vocaloid so I can safely say. Peak."

LOVES ME, LOVES ME NOT

"the song was made during pride month. i could be wrong on this but i think it was also maybe made for pride month too? either way, one of big al's lines is "And boy if I told you, "Could I maybe hold you?"" and one of rin's is "That you and me girl, We'd be in this position." so uhm yeah need i say more basically"

Lili by Harumaki Gohan feat. Hatsune Miku

VS

Mikage's Diary by Harumaki Gohan feat. Hatsune Miku

Propaganda under the cut!

LILI

"Without going too much into the details, this song is the other side of the coin. Harumaki Gohan creates a song about sadness and yearning and the innocence that comes with a first crush but the crushing weight of a world against you. Escape by any means possible is a fantasy, and even then, it's leaving people behind. Overall a heart-rending song that still gives me the chills."

MIKAGE'S DIARY

"Honestly Harumaki Gohan's entire discography is so aggressively queer. Every song is some lesbian shit, so picking one is difficult. Mikage's diary is the beautifully animated ending to a series of songs that follow Mikage, a girl who has a difficult time with her emotions and showing them. She creates false selves to the point of not being able to differentiate what emotions are actually hers. She's in love with a classmate. They saw the fireflies together, something Mikage wanted ever since she found out the other girl (Spica) wanted to. She believes she is undeserving of Spica's 'light' because of her difficulties with emotions. Spica is the sun and Mikage is floating in the depths of the ocean. Mikage's Diary is reminiscent of the tale of the little mermaid. She tries to bring Spica down with her. Her love is ultimately unrequited and Mikage does not float up to the surface like Spica does. Mikage's feelings are sinking deeper within herself. She is the farthest she could ever be from the 'sun.' God she's so gay. All of his songs do this!! All of his songs rip you apart! He builds a story over multiple songs, and its all TRAGIC and GAY!"

EMPRESS

"WE KNOW VILLAIN. WE KNOW UNICORN. LIVED IT LOVED IT. BUT LET'S TALK ABOUT EMPRESS AKA TENIWOHA TRANSFEM ANTHEM… Speaker goes through a journey feeling very inadequate and inherently ugly, something that makeup can't conceal, and says "It looks like my infinitesimal soul was poured into the wrong template" she doesn't fit what's is beautiful, she feels like she was made wrong. There's an inner conflict between the Empress she "wants" to be and what she actually "is" but then she gains more confidence when she reflects on how nature is inherently beautiful because it exists, not because other people think it's beautiful. "Does a lotus flower bloom because it thinks it will be pretty?" Consider how even though she knows she is an "empress," she compares herself to a wrapper over candy--a thin shield, but it doesn't hide anything shameful but rather the sweet candy underneath. This marks a switch into embracing herself. Even if she wants to use the things that signify Empress status aka makeup, clothes, to cover her "ugly" soul she undertands that she is beautiful as she is and doesn't actually need these thigns to be an Empress. She has her "wrapper" on her terms do I make sense. It's commentary on how femininity is both a performance but also self expression. That's why the chorus cries out "Step away from your throne" she does not need a throne to be the Empress that she is!! She doesn't need the validation. "Even if it’s a lie, I’ve straightened my back, see?" SHe is more secure in herself by the end of the song and it no longer matters if being an Empress won't be seen as real enough to others, she has pride in herself and that won't change. I get really emotional about this. Insanely underrated. When you hear EMPRESS IN ME do you not feel the power of the EMPRESS IN ME?!?!?!"

UNICORN

"too overlooked in favor of villain!!!!!! though not as explicitly queer in its lyrics still obv about being an Other. fell of the ark - as a unicorn, not a "real" animal, or that it was a male and a female of each animal and you belong as neither. self-assured song. lovely song."

"villain's lesser known younger sibling. let your uniqueness show! dont hide it away!"

"Its a trans song I like as much as villain :D its probably not gonna win but I like it"

PITTER PATTER

"insanely cute and catchy song about having a crush andbeing unable to think because of it. spent these three months since it released on loop because it just scratches my brain in a certain way. also the aesthetic is SOOOO good!!!"

DEKIWAKU

"Toxic yaoi. Damn i didn't remember re:ng's kiyoteru being this good thanks for reminding me"

"THE VOICE SYNTHS ARE FUCKING GAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Fake toxic yaoi fans when a REAL toxic yaoi enjoyer comes at them. also re:ng's music is just stupid good and so cool to listen to,,,"

---------------------------------------------------------------

(Mod note: the translation for Dekiwaku is a bit subpar (overall strange sentences, weird word choices, lack of nuance when it comes to who sings what), but it's serviceable. The Spanish sub video is leagues better, if you can speak Spanish!)
