I'm SO glad that kikuo using Qi Xuan was not just for one song!! She really fits his style soo well
For real
Her voice is truly beautiful
I do love it too, but kikuo tones Miku’s voice so well it makes her sound so cute😭❤️
same i love the way she is tuned too
Agreed, depending on the song type still prefer Miku though.
I think Miku sounds better for quieter songs like hole dwelling or voices of svaahaa
This has the same energy as "You are an absolutely worthless child", but on the opposite spectrum, and I love every second of it
I was thinking the same thing. Kinda unrelated but I'm starting to wonder if this song is related to In A Deep Dark Forest
@@deviontebenjamin5187there is a high possibility
I was wondering if anyone else made the connection because this was my exact thought as well
@@deviontebenjamin5187 I agree on that too! Maybe like a story about children going to the woods or maybe telling the story of a child in the woods?
@@belladonnabeauty8829 Exactly what I was thinking. It feels a lot like a fable or something
2011 : I am such a bad child.
2013 : You are a worthless child.
2015 : Am I a good child?
2023 : You are a good, good, Very good child!

Now that's character development
wait what song was the 2015 one?

@@luminous.iolite I just assumed it was 愛して愛して愛して

the beginning of the song seems like the fox tricking the child, but the further you get into the song the more desperate and genuinely loving the fox sounds
awww
@@louzo5175aww indeed
its just lovebombing
I like to think of it as the Fox tricking the child, but it eventually comes to love the child, but the fox still wants/needs to posses/kill the child
@@omumafu6346 CANT YOU LET US BE HAPPY FOR A MOMENT??? 😭😭
2013: You're a worthless child...
2023: You're a very good child!
character development
Wish it was about improving parenting, but we don't do that here
@@hiiloveu1521 fox is a good parent it seems
@@user-shrek02749 nope it's luring them (I get the joke but still)
The child died to a hateful mother and is now adopted by a nice Fox mother in death
I love how at 3:20 before the scream, there’s a couple breathes taken. It makes it sound like the person/creature is sobbing
I noticed it aswell
@@User.name2 me too!
That's kikuo for ya
I have a theory that the kid that the fox spirit is taking care of died due to illness or something, leaving the fox spirit alone and mourning for the lost of the child as the child is it's only best friend.
@@cherryblossomanimations3802that is a very good theory!
To me, this song honestly reads less as the fox spirit trying to lure the child away, and more the fox spirit actively helping the child get away from what might be an abusive family situation. The "I love you" parts seem, to me, more like the fox spirit is pretty much saying "I'll always love you, no matter how you act". It's really sweet, in my mind.
I honestly think the same! It's nicer to think of it as a less dark song.
Sadly, this is Kikuo we're talking about.
well, we're all free to interpretation, but to me it sounds like pure love bombing on an innocent kid. the lyrics "this fun power, give me more" leading up to the scream(?) and the fact kitsunes are mythologically associated with trickery and manipulation, seems more ominous to me.
@@liben5052 same, i read it as someone who's escaped an abusive situation falling right into a different one. just the way it goes sometimes :[
Animal spirits in asian folklore are usually evil or at the least tricksters…
One of the lyrics is literally the child being betrayed
“Why, oh why did you save me?
Sharpening your claws in a lonely shrine
Possess me, possess me, did you possess me?”
The kitsune probably just possessed the child in order to cause mayhem (after that line, the kitsune calls the child “dishonest”)
子供特有の共依存と動物特有の懐く感じが相まって好きすぎる。
that is a lot of kanji.
@@anotherdnb...and?
@@anotherdnbmaybe translated so kikuo or someone can read it, or maybe just a really cool person.
This song was released on the last day of 2022.
There is a folk tale in Japan that every year on the night of the last day of the year, many foxes in the Kanto region gather at Ōji Inari Shrine in Tokyo, where the atmospheric ghost lights called "kitsunebi" produced by them are seen as a procession that night.
The shrine is dedicated to "Inari", a popular deity associated with foxes, and the foxes living in the Kanto region are said to follow this shrine.
*Before Japan adopted the Gregorian calendar, the lunisolar calendar was used in Japan. Under this traditional calendar system, the last day of the year was December 29 or 30.
By the way, there is also a legend about fox spirits called "osaki" in the Kanto region. There are variations in the legend, but it is said that they serve those of special lineage and do harm or good to others or their masters when their masters order them to do so. Even when their masters gave them no orders, they acted according to their masters' wishes. However, because their actions were sometimes too extreme, it is also said that those who kept osaki were often discriminated against by the other villagers. For example, if osaki's master just envies someone else's clothes, it will steal and bring the clothes for its master. To make matters worse, once an osaki possessed a family, it cannot be separated from them even if the members of the family are eager to get rid of it. Some folklore says that osaki were not able to enter Edo, now the eastern part of Tokyo, because of Ōji Inari Shrine, which controls the foxes of the Kanto region.
The origin of osaki is sometimes described as follows. Tamamo-no-Mae was a extremely beautiful and intelligent woman and the most favoured courtesan of retired-Emperor Toba. However, when the retired-Emperor got seriously ill, the onmyōji Abe no Yasunari found that she had made him sick and exposed her as a fox spirit. She managed to escape from the Imperial Court, but the retired-Emperor sent Yasunari and famous warriors to kill her. She was defeated in the plains of Nasu, now located in Tochigi Prefecture in the Kanto region, and turned into a stone called Sesshō-seki, which killed any living things that approached it with poisonous gas. It was later exorcised and crushed by the Buddhist monk Gen'nō Shinshō. Then, one of the pieces flew to Gunma Prefecture, next to Tochigi, and finally became osaki.
*Wikipedia has a page in English about Tamamo-no-Mae.
In this song, the lonely fox that possesses the child may be an osaki, born from a piece of the evil nine-tailed fox. Perhaps she wanted her new master because the family she had served had died out. She might spend the last day of the year with her beloved child, instead of gathering with other foxes. Whatever the child thinks about her love, she, a typical osaki, would continue to try to please the child.
In addition, nine-tailed foxes were once considered auspicious beasts in both China and Japan, but later came to be considered as evil entities that deceive people. The reason why the fox spirit in this song repeatedly calls the child "Good child" and is anxious that the child will abandon her could be because she herself was once regarded as a "bad" thing and lost the respect or love of people.
Anyway, I love this song!!!!!
This is genuinely so interesting, I loved learning about it! I can't wait to learn more, thank you for this explanation and information!
thank you for making this comment! it is very helpful!!
Wow, that’s an amazing information, felt like I was reading comment of those cringe memes
Wow thank you for this!! It fits so nicely with the song! I loved reading about this!!!
Thanks for sharing that story! I’ve heard many different nine-tailed fox stories but this one is really interesting and it seems to fit really well with this song!

NEW KIKUO SONGG
Exciting!
IN A DAY 🎉
YEEEE
YEAHHH
in 5 hours!!!!
I was going to come up with a theory about how this song is either about a lonely fox spirit who takes in a lonely human child or that the fox is tricking the child so they can take over their body. Either way, this song is probably going to take a few listens before I can get into it but the art and story are really selling it for me (as most of kikuos videos do).
I like that theory! I viewed it as symbolism for a found family situation gone wrong, in which both the "fox" and the child have leftover unhealthy behaviors from their previous environments. For the child, fawn like behaviors where they vie for the approval of others, and for the "fox," perhaps they learned to become like an abuser themselves, taking advantage of others' affection and taking them in just so they won't feel lonely, but emotionally putting down the child in the process.
And then a year later completely revise your theory lol
I viewed it as an overly controlling foster parents thing maybe
This song blasts "kidnapping and abuse" to me.
In the fourth line, it says "死ぬまでずーっといてあげる (I’ll always be with you up until you die)" which encourages dependency on the kitsune. The rest of the first verse is spent on convincing the child to join the kitsune and cross through the gate between the spirit world and the regular world (youkai things), with "闇夜の真ん中 穴開けて (Punching out a hole in the midst of the dark night)" being the deciding line.
First chorus, we've got the second part of it- "ずーっといいこで信じていてね (Keep listening to me like the good child you are)"- alongside the grooming after it- the constant "I love you"'s- with the conditional "...when you're a good child" after it.
Second verse is the child speaking to the kitsune, but before that part is the confusing equinox reference. According to vocaloidlyrics wiki's translator's notes, it's referencing Higan, the week when the gate between the spirit world and the human world happens to be open. I can't make sense of the "ごくごく飲ませてしまえばいい (Gulp gulp, drink it all up)", though.
Then we're onto the child speaking to the kitsune. Most of it's normal, but the final line "ぼくに 憑いて憑いて 憑いてくれたの？(Possess me, possess me, did you possess me?)" and the damning pause after. No other part of the song has this. For the chorus after, it goes straight back into the grooming, but then states how the child is dishonest and how the kitsune will always believe the child, and the kitsune loves all of the child, even the dishonest part. Which is more manipulation and grooming.
Conclusion of the song starts with the whole thing about how they're a lonely family, which is isolation- an abusive tactic- and then I cannot parse anything from there either because I'm too tired or because it's confusing. Quite possibly both.
Oh, and before I forget, the illustration kinda(?) supports this? With the kitsune blocking the child from the torii gate, a separation in Shinto beliefs between the mundane and the sacred- essentially, something that needs to be passed through in order for a shrine to be a shrine.
Necessary disclaimer, this is just my theory of what the song is about; each person can have their own interpretation and all that jazz. Thought I'd share mine, while I'm here.
@@ceilingtalks omg that was super super good I love that
この歌は「善良だけども善悪が見抜けない狐神の子が悪しき人の子の霊に取りつかれておかしくなってしまう」歌かと思っていました（「飲ませてしまえばいい」や「もっともっともっと……」など欲を出そうとすると曲が不安定になる箇所から）
……が、これが人間側の目線で歌ったものだとしたらと考えてしまいました。狐に取りつかれて爪とぎなど狐のような習性をし始めた結果疎まれてしまった人間の子供の話の可能性もあります。
「いい子」なのか「いい狐」なのか、考察しがいがありますね。
いい狐か！凄い😮
なるほどこれは考察によってどう観るかが変わるね。
@@user-wm1bc1es7cAlmost like how a story can change from who you ask. It's interesting. How much could it possibly vary if you ask many, many, many people?
”いい子(こ)”とも捉えられるし、
”いい狐(こ)”とも捉えられるのまじでマリアナ海溝よりも深い。どっちが取り憑かれてるのか分からない好き
Even the Japanese are confused.
But judging by folklore, the kitsune loves the power and, being a kitsune posses, takes control of the child. Maybe some pity on the child but, same thing.
子供に話しかけるみたいな歌詞が怪異が子供に優しくしようとしてるみたいですごい好きです…

This one beautiful but sad fantasy
That's quite a way to go, but I get it.
This describes it exactly
So if you pay attention, Kikuo usually includes 12 songs in a album, and he already released 6, not counting welcome to the star star inn because that was in KikuoMiku4, meaning we’re like half way there to getting KikuoMiku7 possibly… AHHH IM GETTING EXCITED-
-voices of svahaa
-astral travel
-knife knife knife
-bo en my time remix
-in a deep, dark forest
-good kid and a fox spirit
first three were sadly already released in there own single album with their own drawings by si_ku. but it would have been awesome seeing them all in one album!
@@en-bd1ly NOOOO😭😭💔💔
What if it's Kikuo and Qi Xuan album? AA A A A. A A A ASD
But aren't the 2 last songs are sang by qi xuan?
@@en-bd1ly he said all the singles will be into an album, and a lot of ppl nowdays do singles first then shove them into an album. Look at pinocchiop's LOVE album for example, most of its tracks were already singles on spotify then all became part lf the album

どっちが憑かれたのかわからないのほんとに最高 最後は狐側視点に変わるから2人とも共依存なのがわかるのがとても良い
Very interesting!
I personally think this song is about an overprotective, controlling parent. The lines “I’ll always be with you up until you die” and “You can keep living on my back. Keep on being merry right up until you die” make me think of a parent who never intends on letting their child leave the nest no matter what. And the part where the singer says “Keep listening to me like the good child you are” and “I love when you’re a good child” give me the vibes of a parent who is really bossy, demanding, and doesn’t want their child defying them in any way, shape, or form. The last little bit that makes me think this theory is the line “Possess me, possess me, did you possess me?” I think possess is a metaphor for the parent being so controlling that the child isn’t even allowed any real free will. All in all, throughout the entire song, it sounds like the parent is just gushing about how they adore their child so much that they don’t want to ever let them go.
Finally someone talk about this aspect of the song
why is it that extremely emotional movies that I relate to don't make me cry but comments like this that I relate to make me cry, good grammar ig
oh good!
This song seems to be able to be interpreted in so so many ways!!!! the Korean translation seems to show the kitsune as a victim, while the British shows the child, though the song also matches up with Japanese folklore, yet being able to match up to this kind? And the fact that they can either be both be abused and more... It's just so interesting!!!!
Maybe they all tie to one big, Japanese folklore like, story??

@@orxidpink I just looked at his Wiki page and I was really surprised. And yes, it really doesn't matter.
@@Xanax55 what did that person say??
I literally love how Kikuo incorporated Eastern mythology into this new song. I’m a big Asian folklore nerd, so seeing a song about a kitsune/kumiho really got me excited whenever I saw the premiere. From what it looks like, this song is about the spirit luring a child away with promises of love and affection so that it can use its body to cause havoc, which is something that is standard in a lot of eastern folktales featuring fox spirits. I really loved the whole aesthetic of this as well as the “yip yip” onomatopoeia used in parts of the song. Foxes make that “yip-yip” noise whenever they’re happy or showing content. And the cultural instruments in the back combined with some of Kikuo’s older sounds really ties this song together.
Great job!! This song is definitely going to become one of my new favorites in the future!! Definitely an amazing way to end the New Year!!
EDIT: I realize this song might actually be about child gr00ming oh lord uh yeah I’m not entirely sure but I think that’s what they’re implying
To be honest foxes make a sound which is a screaming woman sound. I donno why they sound like that but I still like foxes. U-U

@@ori-jn9oz それな？
``Possess me, possess me, did you possess me?`` AND THEN THE PAUSE? Right after that, the fox spirit goes right back to the 'you're a good child' stuff.
Also the little lilt at the end of ``も も もふ もふ もふが好き？`` IS SO CUTE? Qi Xuan was so good for this song.
I actually interpret that part as the fox spirit saving the child by possession and the child felt that they were undeserving of the fox spirit's protection.
@@billythemillipede6102 “ Dishonest child, dishonest child, you're a very dishonest child ”
OOOOH this song was SO GOOD LETS GOOOO
Kikuo never disappoints lol
My favorite moment might be 2:00 when what I believe is the child asks “did you possess me?” And then the fox spirit replies with the “go to sleep, good child” chorus like “Don’t ask questions :)”
LMAO YEAH 😭
In the English subtitles, "Did you possess me?" asks "A child," but in the Korean subtitles, "Did you possess to for me?" asks "Fox Spirit." If it was KIKUO him?she?self who had the subtitles, this might have been intended. Well, It's just my personal opinion.
(Sorry Im korean so I usd Translator)
OMG British subtitles say "Hey fox spirit, Why did you save me?"(said a child)
What is this
Is this just the mistake of the people who wrote the captions?
@@user-ep5jx2yb8r small changes happen between interpretations and it’s always fascinating when they happen!! Now there’s different versions of the story kind of like a folk tale!
I’m partial to the idea that it’s the child saying it myself, but the idea that the fox spirit asks it is interesting.
And yes, there’s always the chance that it might be a mistake, but it’s an interesting mistake so I’m gonna let it slide :)
example of another translation:
Pero la engañosa luna de equinoccio del Higan
Ha confundido al sol y las estrellas
Solo había que dejar que siguieran bebiendo
No quiero que nadie me deseche
Oye, kon kon, ¿por qué hiciste eso?
¿Por qué? ¿Por qué salvaste a alguien como yo?
Afilando mis garras en el solitario santuario
¿He sido poseído poseído poseído en algún momento?
(english translation from spanish, I know some spanish but I also used some deepl so it might not be perfect)
But the deceitful equinox moon of the Higan
Has confused the sun and the stars
[[Only/Just]] had to let them keep on drinking
I don't want anyone to [[throw me away/cast me away/reject me]]
Hey, kon kon, ¿why did you do that?
¿Why? ¿Why did you save someone like me?
Sharpening my claws in the [[lonely/solitary]] [[sanctuary/shrine]]
Have I been possessed possessed possessed at some point?
I don't know Japanese but I wonder if maybe the sentence structure is ambiguous on purpose?
(I'll have to check when I have my ipad, but if an actual Japanese speaker can look at the original text I would appreciate it)

Me before I hear this song : huh???
Me at start of the song : oh my god YES
me at the best part 2:10 : YEAH IM JAMMIN GOD THIS SO GOOD
me Ather the song : " replays "
i really like how the fox spirit is portrayed here! especially with teh wonderful tuning of Qi Xuan , it seems to sing in a sickly sweet voice that tries to sway the child, reassuring them that it will be with them until death, that to be a good child they must sleep forever, while also demeaning the child as dishonest, belittling them as it says it still loves them. the most hard hitting line is probably "drink it all up / no one wants to be thrown away", as it looks like the fox spirit is trying to coerce them
it kinda reminds me of the starting chorus in "you are a useless child" but more wrapped up in false kindness, so i feel like you could interpret this in so many different ways, from a wayward kitsune spirit in a myth or an abusive family situation. im sure i probably missed something due to not knowing japanese but the lyrics are still super interesting ^^
I also see it as some sort of abusive family song! While useless child has a parent constantly berating and insulting their child, this song has someone constantly saying "i love you" and complementing the child. While the compliments sound good it may also be written that way to make the fox seem good while also being incredibly overbaring (i think that's the right word)
The songs good either way tho!
Edit:
After listening to it again with the lyrics "why did you save me?" It may be a child they adopted who may have been through an abusive family in the past, the lyrics after "possess me, possesses me, did you posess me?" May also be the child doubting if the fox even does love/care about them like they say they do. The silence following that line before repeating the chorus may mean that the fox was taken aback, possibly insulted by the question, but going back to the same way of constantly complimenting them, but this time calling them dishonest. With this idea, the constant compliments and the lyrics near the beginning "hey,hey, hey what do you like? Fl-fl-fluffy fluff fluffy things?" Could be the parent/fox trying to make the child feel more secure and show that they care about them, since children do usually like fluffy things, the "caring" however can make the child feel as if all of it is false.
The fox may have also come from an abusive situation/have no previous experience with children with how they act.
@@RandomPerson-ks3ql i also thought of it as a sort of "abusive family" situation due to kikuo's usual subject matter. basically "useless child" but on an opposite abusive spectrum yk?
I thought of it as either an abusive family situation or a child running into this fox spirit and it turning into a sort of found family situation but I can't help but feel like the fox spirit has no malicious intent and this is just a misguided attempt from the fox spirit to help the child
To me it seems like the fox is lonely too
It more so reminds me of えきちのみ's comment where the fox spirit itself might be desperate to not be discarded, since apparently fox spirits being evil was a more recent thing

1番サビ以降は男の子の目線かもしれない。神社に捨てられた男の子と、一緒に遊んでくれた狐の子なのかな？だから2番のサビの歌詞は「見せててられる」「いてられる」になるのか…なるほど。
となると「うそこ」は男の子自身になるのかな？「君も大好き」っていう歌詞からすると、男の子は別に愛する人がいるのかな。例えば、男の子を捨てた家族とか？
そう考えると男の子がまた家族から捨てられたくないから、狐の子の力を借りて楽しませてあげないと…っていう強迫観念に囚われているのかもしれない。
「ずっとうそこを信じていてね」も、
男の子は狐の子に依存されてるって分かってて、同時にそれは捨てられた一人ぼっちの僕に依存してるだけって事も理解してるんじゃないかな？だから、まだ他の人を愛している本心は隠している。愛されるために、狐の子を利用している？

Me too bro, I sighed after I listened to it and pulled up the comments.
I want to stay in denial but I just can’t.
@@Nox.x_ART what happened?
@@quamiko4977 I have to accept that the song is probably not wholesome ☹️(it’s good tho)
@@Nox.x_ART こんなに甘いものはない 何かから誰かを誘い出すような気がする
this is going to be the greatest album of all time
Agreed
取り憑かれた人の子は親に捨てられ
孤立していた。
神社でひとりぼっちだった妖狐と
共依存してしまった
妖狐が人の子に取り付くことでもう離れない。もう寂しくない
妖狐の妖術で人の子は辛い思いも寂しさも感じなくて済む
これぞ共存関係ですな(性癖に刺さる音)
同志の気配を感じて参上した！
拙者もでござる！！
わるいこの君になっても好きでいてくれるのかな…妖だからその辺の価値観人と違いそうで勝手に萌えました。
普通の狐が神社の近くで息絶えていたのを、この子(もう亡くなってる霊とかなのかな)が憑いて助けた事で妖狐として色んなものに化けたりできるようになったのかな…命の恩人だから執着してるのかな。。素敵な曲を何年もありがとうございます！
NEW SONG NEW SONG!! IT SOUNDS AMAZING!!!!
YES!! hi millie-chan www

MILLIE BASED

MILLIE YOU LISTEN TO KIKUO TOO?
nothing is better than a Kikuo song before the end of the year, I can't wait to hear it ( ╹▽╹ )
Edit: Undoubtedly a masterpiece, Kikuo's songs are always perfect
Same bro im crying now
facts
Real
Agreed
Yess
真夜中の穴って狐の窓かな…だとしたら表現の仕方独特すぎて大好き
今までKikuoさん布教しようとすると曲調がかなり独特なのが多くて入り口どうしようか悩む部分があったんだけど、これはKikuoワールドと聴きやすさを両立しててたすかるなぁって勝手に思ってる
あどけない狂気…すごく好きです
本当に好き…かわいいせつないかなしいさみしい全部ごちゃまぜで、言葉にできないものを音楽で聞いている
可愛さと不穏さと無邪気さが好き。
ずっと2人で幸せに暮らしてほしい。
も も もふもふとかこんこんきつねの魔法(大人は魔法とか信じない人が多い)とか、幼い感じがするの大好きです👍🏻
両依存の狐と人間の曲なのかな…？めちゃくちゃ好きです！
This is my first time hearing Qi Xuan voice, I think her voice fit Kikuo style so much Thank you for using her!
you can also hear her in his song "In A Deep, Dark Forest"!
@@wjsnactivist6141 awesome! time to sink into Kikuo Dwelling Hole, haha
"Missing missing" is good too
コンコンの発音が無邪気で可愛いくて好き
やばい中毒性スゴすぎて……
きくおさんの曲の中でお気に入りが天国へ行こう、君はできない子、僕をそんな目で見ないで
なんだけど新しく入りました……しばらくこれ聴きます
i love the contrast between this song and kimi wa dekinai ko, which talks about someone calling their child useless and dumb. the 2 songs being made by the same person (kikuo) makes this even more interesting!
the use of similar "lalala"s and the words "sabishii" (lonely) and "kanashi" (sad/miserable) definitely makes me think it's intentional. maybe this is where the child in dekinai ko ran off to, and how he met his untimely end.
@@dottysdokis yea plus i think the kid from dekinai ko and the one in here look alike so yea plus this might make lore for a possible series (kinda like the onibi series)
its interesting how kimi wa dekinai ko starts off with hating the kid and ends with the mother regretting everything they said and realizing they miss the child and want them back. whereas, this song starts off sweet and ends with the fox taking over the child.
this song felt so sweet i genuinely rlly hope there's not a dark meaning im missing bc it seems like the fox spirit actually loves the kid for once :)
lmao
Hah.
There is a dark meaning in all kikuo songs no matter how sweet they are for example there is into the heaven one it sounds so sweet and all until you realise it's about a couple who committed double suicide and that's one of the milder ones 💀
You //could// see it as a misguided attempt from the fox to help a kid...
Sadly, I'm at least 59% sure that the kitsune possessed the kid T.T
This feels like a warm hug in a dream, but the bed you're in isn't exactly in a home that really fits the definition of "safe."
｢狐｣の字って獣編を子編にすると孤独の｢孤｣になる……
天才
古典の試験で狐についての文章だったんだけど記述全部「孤」って書いててマジで泣いた
Havent even heard it, but this song literally deserves an award fr
Edit- i knew it, kikuo cant musically disappoint
real
この曲も、素晴らしいものになると思います。
real
real
Yasssss
SOBBING I CANT WIAT FOR THIS BOP TO ABSOLUTELY ROCK MY WORLD UPSIDE DOWN BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR
Let’s gooo!! This song just made me transcend!
THIS SING ID AD MASTERPIECE I'M LITERALLY CRYING EISJWOSMKWAMMA I CANT 😭😭😭💕💕💕💕
これ機械の声とか信じられない
this is my first time hearing qi xuan!!! the voice might even fit kikuo better than miku tbh its so good!!!!
Have you listened to In a deep dark forest?
@@ssbu_limeade yup i noticed right after this comment and forgot to edit lol..
I missed this side of Kikuo so much!! I'm not sure who the vocal synth is but they sound incredible! My nostalgia is living for this.
It's Qi Xuan from ACE studio!
@@hamerugumiandthevocaloidfa8654 ohhh
hows the voice sound so human but also not? as always I’m impressed
Kikuo made Qi Xuan sound like a fox imitating a human's voice!
@@ascorbicpng the part near the end where the voice goes high reminds me of Chinese opera, a bit. Sometimes the vocal range can go high as hell and it's impressive. It may be squeaky but this can be achieved!
2013: You're a worthless child
2023: You're a very good child
2033: You're the best child in the world!
Cant forget
20?3: you are a child!
この歌声を急がせるかのようなリズム最高すぎる
君はできない子を彷彿させる中毒性の高いきくおさんのこういう曲調めちゃめちゃ好き、歌詞は逆でいい子なのがまたエモい…🐈️
i'm so happy to see another song!!!
Curiosities about this voice:
Despite what is in the video description, and contrary to what many may think, (Qi Xuan/绮萱) is not a "VOCALOID", but is part of another voice synthesiser, with the same functionality for singing, but which however uses a very different technology to synthesise the voice.
The Japanese community usually calls any other voice synthesiser by the term "VOCALOID", as they are already familiar with it.
Her name in traditional Chinese Qi Xuan/绮萱, a jovial and fresh voice, coming from a new brand vocal synthesizer called, "ACE Studio", the same as surprising as it may seem is native Chinese, but thanks to a technology called "Cross Lingual Synthesis", she is able to sing in Japanese and Chinese, simultaneously, and soon she will be able to sing in English.
Right now ACE Studio is at an early stage of development, but they are doing their best to incorporate better parameters and technology, and also they realese they first native english voice for the program!
Let's hope to support this startup, Kikuo was so interested in this program from the beginning and he decided to join a discord server for it.
And for those Vocal Synths fans, you can try the voice of Qi Xuan, and 14 other ACE Studio voices for free! :DDD
Without further ado, thanks for reading!
Thank you god for giving us another one of your songs, praise be to Kikuo.
Amen.
he*
had no idea about any of this, thanks!
very refreshing hearing new Kikuo songs with different voices since, you know, Kikuo likes using Miku A LOT ^^;
dawg the song hasnt even started
i aint reading all of that but ok
最近頭の中がぐちゃぐちゃで、何やっても体をちぎりたくなる気持ちだったのですが、この曲を聴いたらやわらかい何かに包まれているような感覚になって、じんわりと涙が出てきて、
聴き終わった頃には
不思議なくらいにすっきりしました。
お母さんと千本鳥居を見に行った時の事を思い出しました。😢
ありがとう...
i dunno why, but i interpret this song as the fox spirit giving a sick child a little joyride before the child dies. mainly all the mentions of “being with you up until you die” and “going to sleep forever” in the middle of the fox telling the child that it loves them makes me think of this.
EXACTLY
@@cloudjelly97Yeah I agree. At 3:20, the fox spirit sounds like she's crying. Possibly the sick child died and that shes mourning for me child's death.
こんな曲を他のボカロPに量産されたら困るぐらいの良曲
ボカロ感あるけど人の感じも感じて最初どっちかわかんなかったです
すごいな…めっちゃ好き
It is that it is not a voice from the Vocaloid software, it is from the ACE Studio software, which uses AI to sing like a human
@@decko_choripan vocaloid is used widely in Japanese. Example, KasaneTeto in UTAU and Kafu are one of it.
Im japanese. Sorry for not being good my English.
P.S.Even if it is not a vocaloid but artificial voice is often called Vocaloid in Japanese.
i'm here thanks to a certain witch of calamity singing out her love for a fox goddess of luck who's about to retire soon 🥹🫶 this is such a chilling yet charming melody i love it and i'm sure nina kosaka will as well as she hears this song from heaven!! fox mom forever and _konkon_ ! ❤🧡💜🤍

Another masterpiece from kikuo
Edit: this was amazing than I thought and it has been confirmed that kikuo does not fail of making amazing songs
きくおさんの曲ってやっぱ聞けば聞くほどクセになる〜
2:43からが特に好き ずっと聞いてる
I remember listening to this so many times when I was suicidal and this is the kinda thoughts my thoughts would tell me whenever I would hurt myself or have an attempt.
I can't believe I have been clean for a month from cutting and it has been a year since I was running across busy roads and on 10 medications.. dang.
I don’t know you, but I just have to say that I’m very proud of you for staying clean ^^ /gen ❤️
@@FaerinnyFae ty!
The music and background music, the artstyle, the voice, the lyrics, its all a bunch of masterpiece mixed into one, resulted into this song
yooo mr sakamoto a cat of culture i see

I missed Kikuo and here he is, coming back with a new song 💖
its only been a month tho lol
@@super_nh that's way too long, the kikuo withdrawal will kick in /j
@@super_nh fast kikuo uploads scare me sometimes
アルティメット子守唄みたいな曲調好き
I love how listening to Kikuo's music is not only amazing because the music is SO GOOD, but you also learn about various parts of Asian culture, like the Asian folklore/eastern mythology represented by the fox spirit luring the child away, promising happiness and stuff, only to use the child for causing havoc, etc., etc. (Which I had no idea until I looked in the comments!)
From the like 10 seconds I have heard of this song I already know it’s gonna be a banger
コンコンって狐の鳴き声だと思ってたけど、調べたら…
昏昏：意識を失っているさま
懇懇：心をこめて繰り返し説くさま
I really love this song! It has many interpretations, and I just love the darker side of how kitsune's are portrayed.
I think that the kitsune it trying to sway the child with kind words at first, making them believe that it genuinely cares about them-- then after a connection is built, going on to make the child feel as if due to his bad traits, nobody will love him for it. Except for, of course, the kitsune. Manipulation at it's finest.
"You are so dishonest, and so unlikeable... Only I can love you."
Reminds me of a certain fox from jenshin

Nothing is better than an new Kikuo song to end the year
日本人いない...
最初の方のもふもふもふが好きが好き(語彙力)
この単眼のキツネかわいすぎてめちゃくちゃ好きです…曲の雰囲気も良すぎる…😂❤
お狐の歌だー( ◜ω◝ )
昔懐かしい雰囲気と妖しさが素敵ですっ
日本人少なすぎん！？最高すぎる
日本人いる...？
今回も神曲ありがとうございます。鬼リピ案件です。
確かにコメント欄外国語がほとんどだもんね
歌の良さに気を惹かれてたけど、そういえば神様って体の一部が欠けてるらしいってのをどっかで聞いた気がする。イラストの狐さんは単眼ってことは神様、、、？というか背景森っぽい、、山神様？森だとしてなぜ少年？が森に一人でいるの？親に捨てられでもしたのかねぇ、、、歌詞にも「誰にもポイポイされたくない」とか「どうしてどうして助けたの？」とかあるから捨てられて、助けられた？
Usually, when I listen to a song that I like a lot and listen to it a lot, eventually, I become kind of bored of it. But I've realized with a lot of Kikuo's songs, that these songs are the type (to me) that you have to listen a few times to like it, and the more I listen, the more I like it.
After almost two years of constantly listening to Kikuo's music, I've never gotten tired of them. So that's cool.
this is the exact same thing that i thought! thought they were meh at first, but after a few listens they just get better and better
毎回好きだけど今回特に好きだー。気持ち良い音だらけ。
Started off 2023 with a BANG. this is amazing. I'll overplay it until my ears explode. I'll find myself in the shower singing "iiko iiko". I'll never get tired of this. The masterpiece art completes this incredible piece. This is not just music this is an entire experience. Thank you kikuo for making the best music I've ever heard with si_ku who makes the most unique art I've ever seen.
もふもふかわいい
I’ve been listening to this for 16hr+ on repeat now.
(I started crying when it reached 11am)
I don’t give a shit about what your interpretation is of this song
I just want to think that my parents are telling me this..
The cycle repeats.
The cycle is still repeating 😭
