This is definitely the best version of this vocaloid. I remember the earlier versions of him sounded so robotic that it was almost unusable. They did a great job cleaning up his vocals.
@@tomboyjessie1352 he's pretty easy to use (from what a lot of people said, I'm not saying from experience) but he's also not to expensive unless you get the whole package.
Bro the Vocaloid sounds so good now compared to when it first came out that it genuinely does sound like a younger (generally higher pitched?) version of GACKT 😭
@@yeyeyeyeye2193 No it's not XD only Yakuza are rolling their R in today Japan, Japanese peoples only hit their tongs 1 time for making their R, not multiple times
Wow, the way Gakupo's voice is tuned here is really unique; it gives the song a lot of vibrancy and expression! Though I would suggest making the the vibrato a bit less pronounced in some places...
Haha yeah, it was a bit tricky for me since it's a lot more vibrato than I usually do! But I thought it'd be fun to try a bit of that older classical Japanese singing style that the original had, seeing as it's a song about samurai and all :3

This is literally the best modern Gakupo cover of this song because of the emotion, passion, and power you hear in his voice here that I sorely missed in the other covers. This cover bests lots of uses of Gakuponow, but back in the day too, due to the modern clarity of his voice. It is the only way I could ever tell this wasn't the original. I hear that natural strain Gakupo has from his voice provider, (I call it the "Gaku-sound") that was one of the only highlights (His voice was unique and very versatile, but comes out too soft vs the music or in duets) of his early engines/voicebanks. Overall, after through analysis (playing the vid on repeat bc it is a bop) I now can proclaim this the epitome of my childhood.
There's a cover someone did with him covering Gackt's Returner sounds VERY human in that to the point it could be confused for the original from his voice provider.
it sounds sooo good that I don't even know if that was the real Gackpoid, it sounds sooooo different... Love it!! It's my favorite vocaloid Your job is incredible uwu
This is the best I've * ever* heard Gakupo sound! His English is so clear, his inflections are so on point, and his rolling R's are so good. You really outdid yourself here.
This was so gosh dang BEAUTIFUL!! It brought tears to my eyes! Dancing Samurai was my very FIRST Gakupo song I heard, this brought back a flood of memories. I'm ugly crying!! Thank you for this.
The rolled Rs are cracking me tf up I love this delinquent-ass dork to death I'm not lying when I say just this song inspired my entire characterization of Gakupo... Fandom is such a beautiful thing. (His original concept is basically an elegant pacifist who stops conflict with his blade's calming sounds... oh boy...)
oh god, I had a tab open for your cover and I thought you had deleted and I had a heart attack before I realised you re-upoloaded it! I BEG OF YOU PLEASE CONTINUE TO USE GAKUPO YOU MAKE HIM SOUND AMAZING!!
YOUR GAKUPO SOUND P E R F E C T. LIKE, I NEVER, EVER HEARD A GAKUPO SO FUCKING WELL TUNED, I'M AT THE EDGE OF CRYING BECAUSE THIS IS??? PERFECT. THE ROLLINGS, THE VOICE, EVERYTHING. I JUST LOVE IT. 💜
the second i heard it i was absolutely bewildered with the high quality audio, i've actually never heard the hq version. the tuning is also extremely amazing and i can listen to this all day, well done
I was shook the moment I heard Gakupo's voice and processed it only a few seconds later. The original has nostalgia value but it was so robotic and choppy that it needed some serious polishing. Thank you so much for the remake! YOUR ANCESTORS ARE PROUD
the song started right? my hand instantly covered my jaw dropped mouth. this is beyond amazing, Gakupo is amongst my top favorites, hes so underrated but this shows how amazing he can sound.
This is possibly the BEST Gakupo cover I've seen; he's tuned so beautifully!! I honestly think this may be one of the best tuned Gakupo songs I've come across in general!
I'm speechless. It sounds so aunthentic!! I've never loved Gakupo's voice more than I do now 💘💘 I've said this way too many timrs but this time I mean it unironically, when I die please play this at my funeral. I'd die the happiest knowing this masterpiece will be associated with me. Edit: oh and I didn't notice at first but I love how you can hear him rolling his r's lol it's cute
i was a huge gackt fan when i was a teen, so naturally gakupo was my favorite vocaloid. this is so nostalgic, really brings me back to those days. and wow, i had no idea gakupo could sound this good! this is insanely impressive, great work! :)

WOWW. I remember listening to the first version of this song when it came out years ago. It’s amazing to see how the vocaloid’s have improved over the years. Gakupo sounds so crisp.
HOLY SHIT!! I don't Think Gakupo has ever sounded *THIS GOOD* ! Hell, This is the best I've heard him sound!!!!! Also, HE CAN SPEAK ACTUAL ENGLISH, NOW?!! I literally had to do a double-take at 0:10!!! XDDDD
I honestly don't listen to loads of gakupo songs but recently I've really liked a lot of his songs I've been addicted to lunacy duke of venomania and i really like ever lasting night/twilight night💜
Oh man, I hadn't realized Gakupo had a V5, and I remember back to when I FIRST got into Vocaloid, Gakupo was the one to bring me in....and with his v1 bank. Just....oxo I'm starting to feel my age....
I can finally understand the English without trying lol. Thank you again so much for this song. I had no idea those parts were actually in English before I listened to this

@@mitsubachihachi9643 HYA!
the only thing i still don't understand is how people still doesn't use gakupo, i loved him before and i still love him

@@tomboyjessie1352 he's pretty easy to use (from what a lot of people said, I'm not saying from experience) but he's also not to expensive unless you get the whole package.
He is not very difficult to use but he is certainly very expensive.
@@kafkaesque_08 Huh, I thought he was hard
In addition to not being difficult to use (also anecdotal), I think it's because people tend to use him for music that his register is ill-suited for

Gakupo : dancing cutely
what he's saying : *s o r r y , g o k i l l y o u r s e l f .*
That was random asf tbh- 😰
Harakiri :P
I can't believe you have Gackt trapped in your basement so he can cover vocaloid songs.
trapped where he should be 🥰🥰
Samurai Boi isn't gonna let it slide tho
Bro the Vocaloid sounds so good now compared to when it first came out that it genuinely does sound like a younger (generally higher pitched?) version of GACKT 😭
we all share him now 🥰

Found you while scrolling lol
Why the hell is no one using Gakupo more after this like w h a t- HE HAS SO MUCH POTENTIAL
Gakupo is becoming more and more on Gackt, omg 💜
i just got back into vocaloid recently and i just discovered this song and i love it so much. i think gakupo is definitely my favourite
this literally sounds exactly like gackt with some autotune. i dont know if i commented on this already or not (its been in a playlist for like a year) but it astounds me every time i hear it.
this is a HUGE childhood song of mine (i'm almost 20 now) and the fact this doesnt have more views makes me so sad, this is like a childhood memory thats been completely overhauled and improved. ive literally never heard gakupo sound this good before and ive been into vocaloid since i was like 8. youre a deity
Oh gawd, this tuning is so good! I love when he rolling the R and do the "yah". Also the dancing samurai part. I like this more than the original
Same!
You know it’s a good cover when your jaw drops at the first freaking second and you haven’t even listened to the full cover yet
OMG, THE ORIGINAL ESSENCE OF GAKUPO'S VOICE I FELL IN LOVE YEARS AGO... HERE IS! I WAS MISSING IT IN 90% OF THE MOST RECENT COVERS. I'M SO HAPPY ㅠㅠ
That's the best use of the eggplant I've ever heard! *-* So addictive!
I wouldn't be surprised if eggplant became an illegal substance after this
i love how you just dropped the best gakupo tuning ive ever heard in my life and then fucked off
i tHOUGHT EVERYONE WAS JOKING WHEN THEY SAID THAT GAKUPO SOUNDED CRISP BUT WHAT? THE? FRICC? MY MAN HAS BEEN BLESSED BY THE MUSIC GODS

I LOVE GAKUPO SM
me see dancing samurai v5 cover

It's not Gakupo. It's a niconico cover from a human singer. theyre being sneaky by saying Gakupo V5 (which doesn't exist yet)
English lyrics:
Sa-mu-rai (Go kill yourself, scum!)
Dancing in the night,
on this dance floor
Excuse me for eliminating the men without rhythm
Dancing all the night,
in this rotten era
Let's stir up a wave of battles,
viva samurai (Hya!)
Above are those who rule
Below are those who serve
Belonging to neither group,
I keep on dancing
If you're born a man in this narrow Japan
Don't stop until you've overtaken the whole country
Overcoming all obstacles
Dancing in the night
If you can't dance to any mix
Sorry, go kill yourself
Dancing all the night
In this broken era
Let's stir up a tempest
Dancing samurai (Hya!)
There were some girls on the street
But as a newcomer, they were out of my league
I forced myself to talk to them
But they only ignored me
Ah, I'm lamenting that
So I'll just climb to the top as a warrior
Men standing in my way shall be slashed
By my blade in an instant
Dancing at the place,
no matter where
As long as there is music,
I can live a happy life
Dancing with your pace,
no matter what time
If you don't give it your best,
you're a worthless samurai (Hya!)
Dancing in your life,
even on my dying day
As long as there's music,
There is happiness
Dancing all your life,
Before that day comes
Everyone will call me the Dancing Samurai (Hya!)
Dancing in the night,
on this dance floor
Excuse me for eliminating the men without rhythm
Dancing all the night,
in this rotten era
Let's stir up a wave of battles,
Novice samurai
Someday I will be
a true samurai
Sa-mu-rai (Go kill yourself, scum!)
