Her name is "Haruko Nagaya"😊She is called "Osa" by her fans and listeners of the radio show she appeared on as a personality for a year a while ago.😁 This is because the first kanji character of her last name, "Naga," can be read as "Osa," which means "leader."😆Contrary to her beauty and style, she has a very straightforward personality, and in Japan, women like that have long been called "big sister type" 🤭 When she formed this band with her classmates in high school, she had no intention of becoming the vocalist because she had no experience singing before, but when it came time to decide on a vocalist within the band, she hummed a tune that was right on tune, so that's how she got chosen✨😂 She also wrote the lyrics for this song, and because she was originally a fan of the original manga, she was able to write the lyrics with precision.🤗
This song is the theme song for the anime "The Apothecary Diaries" (the localized title explained) which is set in a world reminiscent of ancient China.😊The instruments used this time were for an original arrangement for the live performance, the drums are Japanese, and the stringed instruments erhu and gong are traditional Chinese instruments.😌
I think that behind this information saying that it's "fake" there are jealous people who can't accept that Japanese singers are so good. By the way, if you compare the live versions in concert and these takes or if you look at the opinions of real singing professionals and not ordinary youtubers, you understand that it's really their voices. Japanese and Asian singers have their ways of singing, that's why we like the openings, endings or OSTs of anime.
3:01 "Rattarai...what do you mean?" In the original recording, when the main melody sings "Injanai," the reply is "Injanai," and when the main melody sings "Anjanai," the reply is "Anjanai," but it seems that the arrangement has been changed.😊So it's a chorus so it doesn't make sense 🤗
Band name pronunciation help 😂 Riyo (pronounced quickly so as to sound like little to no I in the middle)+ku+ohh+show+ku+sha+kai 👍🏻P.S. they’re other stuff is pretty good too you should give it a listen
Dude, is this the first time you’re encountering the internet? 😂 People love to lie to you to make you think they have special insider knowledge. The First Take is genuine. You think everyone who has been on it has lied? You don’t know Japanese culture very well. If you need convincing try watching professional vocal coaches or singers, etc. reacting to The First Take performances and see what people who know their stuff think, instead of taking the word of some idiot, such as myself, hiding behind the anonymity of a comments section or chat box. 😊
I think that the argument was not that the First take was fake, but that there is post production. So the singers don't necessarily sound that good/perfect. Nothing wrong with that in my opinion. I don't think any of this takes away from their talent.

1:44 "Why does she look annoyed?"
I think she's probably just nervous, not annoyed.😊

Wether the first take is fake or not, AS long AS i enjoy the music / songs. There is no problem for me
