Hoshizora's latest~

I like to know when new dubs are released, because even though I may not watch the video right away or get around to writing it until later, if I'm not busy at the time I love to download the MP3s (when possible). Cause all it takes is a few minutes and then I can slap it on a playlist and listen to it whenever I want. I often listen to a dub 20-30 times before I write about it.

So even just a PM or shared video letting me know that something is out -not necessarily a request- is cool. It's also nice to have a good listen of a dub in advance. I downloaded two of these next three dubs almost right after I saw them in my inbox from the Hoshizora account, and have listened to them several times since then.

Maji Bomber by HoshizoraDubs / Most of y'all know by now that I love this song. It's fun and pure win. There have been quite a few dubs of it recently, as does happen with newer releases. This is really only maybe the third dub of it I've listened to, and a marvelous dub it is! The blending and overall sound is awesome, there is a variety of voices that makes for a great mix.

I really like Malice on Risako's part! I was just immediately drawn to her. I heard her first solo and went; whoa. I love her mature sound. Saya is peppy+adorable; irresistibly so. Not that I'd try to fight my affection, lol. She's great in this. The terrific Coco fits Miyabi so well! I know I've said it before, but she does! And Juri is mega darling!!

Rin is fabulous!! I wish the lines were fairer, cause I'd love to hear her more *shakes fist at H!P line divider people* Kay is utterly sweet and her somewhat gentleish+cute sound really suits her part. Gah, I'd love to hear Miri more too, she only has one line but it's wonderful!

All of the girls sound great- though I do think this dub, as a whole, needs more more energy!!! Malice's "Tachiagare" at 2:45 is one of my favorite solos in the song, and the group chorus after that is my fave part of the dub! I love how the girls all sound together!

Seishun Collection / This is another one of those songs that I've been ruined on -for lack of a better word- groupdub wise. One dub comes to mind when I think of it and it's sometimes hard not to compare in my head. The blending is nice, though the togetherness isn't always spot on. Some minor volume / mic stuff too, and though I wasn't really taking notice, someone mentioned that there are some pronunciation slips.

Still, I think these gals did a nice job; the solos are lovely and the group parts swell. Overall this could use a little more energy and there are some iffy notes, but nothing super off. I don't think anyone singing this likes this song anymore than I do, lol. But don't let my dislike of the song put y'all off of this! My 'ugh' thoughts about it are trying to wiggle their way into my words about the dub. At least they gave singing this song a go, nee? I can't even stand to watch the PV. Anyways!! (lolataya)

Aitakatta / Now this is what I'm talking about!! I really like this dub a lot! The cast sounds fantastic, I love the blending, the energy is pretty good and overall this is very enjoyable. The "Aitakatta"s are all splendid- I wish I knew how this was scripted. I know there are no solos, but it sounds like different mini groups? With the chorus by everyone. idk for sure. But however they did the lines, this turned out excellentally and I'm digging it. Totally worth a listen, I'm glad I have it downloaded. Defintely a keeper.
