Naichau Kamo by Twilight Kisu / I RABU YOU, CHARMS PROJECT! Not only do they clearly tell you how things go in the drop-down section - "Solos in order of appearance (excluding the 'Kamo's)" - times are also provided for each singer AND there are CClyrics. I altered the times a little so that they are more accurate, though it's really only a difference of seconds. Also! I love the little image thing in the beginning of the video, it looks cool!

The "Kamo"s sound strange to me, I don't really like the effect that was used on them. The first round of solos (Daniel, Chiyo, Rei, Raii) are all nice; everyone sounds great and the energy level is fairly good. I think this group of gals did a fabulous job on all of the harmonies!!! The verses are all fine and dandy, but I am in love with the chorus!! Total RABU RABU.

The epicness starts the first time at 1:01- I love how they all sound together!! You can really hear all of the different parts sung by different voices but at the same time it all flows, meshes, blends! wonderfully together. I really like the "sono bun tsurasugiru no" - and right after that, at 1:10 is Mari; you can tell that she is singing on the higher end of her range, but she manages the notes without going pitchy. And her + the harmonies on the second part "kokoro wa tooku hanareteku" = awesome!

Oh something to point out, it says "Solos in order of appearance" not in order of hearance. The solos do not keep going in the order that the cast is listed. The times are just a reference for when you first hear them in the dub - for everything else, you refer to the lyrics. I had to double check on that at one point, and successfully prevented myself from being confused! YAY! lol, anyways.

Raii at 1:23, ohmygosh she sounds cute!! And she sings with good emotion; I think you would be able to hear it more if she didn't have such high notes to sing on this solo. I really like the first part, "kaiwa no naka de nando mo" - on the next line the harmony joins in, and while the two sound good together, the "kedo" is a little loud.

1:35 "NAICHAU KAMO" don't we all love this part of the song? The first two are sung by everyone, and then two groups go back and forth with the rest of the parts; Ch/Da/Re and Ma/Ra. It's all lovely. Back to the verses at 2:00 with Chiyo. There are a couple of times I think she could have gone pitchy, but she didn't! She kept good control of her voice, and while her solo isn't exactly smooth, she does have good pronunciation. I think I like her 0:36 the most in this dub.

Yume at 2:08, I really like her voice! She sounds, er, not adorable, sort of sweet & lovely? Whatev, I like listening to her. She did a pretty good job on her higher notes. The "kara" at 2:30 in the pre-chorus is a duet, and the harmony is slightly off; wrong note. But though noticable, it's not horrible. Following right after is more of the fantastic chorus!! Daniel at 2:41, I like her "mitai ni" - she also had a good solo back at 0:28.

The rest of the dub is more "Naichau Kamo"s and chorus. Overall I really like this! This song has grown on me a lot, and listening to it sung as splendidly as these girls did is delightful!
