  • I don't mean to be a hater, but it sounded like she was forcing the air out of her lungs. It's was a bit too high pitched for her at some parts.... The singer is supposed to sing narratively, as though she has sympathy for the girl. Once you hit the chorus where the girl is singing, you can sing a bit louder bit try not to screech. It's not horrible, but it has some room for improvement. Thanks!:)

  • @TheFreakforAnime The fact your trying to tell Akiakane how to sing the song, like anyone cares is funny. And then the fact you say 'it's not horrible, but it has some room for improvement' is just sad. Please go listen to the monotone, emotionless singers you listen to and leave the amazing stuff alone, honey. :)

  • Oh my god the emotions ;u;

    I got chills when she started singing <3

  • wow it sounds so strong i really like this dub so much emotion

  • This is what I hear when I listen to this song: A girl screaming out her frustrations to the world. Any kind of soft version would have killed the emotion.

    Still love Miku's version too :)

  • Aw, c'mon. We're 1074 and the dislikers are 17.

    Stop comments about the haters :) We ALL love Akiakane.

  • I can't listen to this song without crying. This was the first song I heard by Miku, and it's still one of my favorites. She makes it more beautiful, painful. hgfdgjdsghdljg. /dies/

  • While listening to this, i read the comments and i'm honestly Hurt. So many people are saying they dislike it, and I'm fine with their Opinions but if seems like that all went out. If you dislike her way of singing/anything else just click out. Why even bother posting a comment? It's not like you'll win a prize for being the five millionth person to dislike her. :U

  • She can sing AND draw <3333 ~Akiakane is amazing~

  • well....

  • My mom just walked in and said, "This is horrible, Emily."

    Shows how much she knows... >.<

  • i love how unique her voice is. in any nico nico chorus she is in she always stands out.

  • I just died. Blissfully.

  • She really is something and I always loved the ending.

  • I shall just say... the ah oh's are really catchy XD

  • This is sooo amazing! its got so much emotion to it!~but i still like acane madders version better though. She got a really good voice

  • Wow, i loved the Miku version and when i was introduced to this, i really broke down at the end. I would say this is an awesome piece on its own and should not be neglected over miku's version.

  • I really really love the vocals on this. She made it her own kinda.

  • @YUKYUKprods It is her own >_> She composed it

  • @remboy3000 You guys.

    She didn't write it. Read the description:

    "...originally produced by Genjitsutouhi-P for Vocaloid Miku in Feb.14,2010."

    If you notice in the opening, it credits "Music", as in the actual music, to wowaka, and "Song" to Akiakane, as in she's singing it. She's the singer AND the illustrator in this version.

    Hopefully, that clears everything up.

  • @VideoGVideo Oooh so she never actually wrote it? ._. Poo and I told everyone already >_<

  • @remboy3000 That's what you get for being a besserwisser I suppose? ">_>"

  • @YUKYUKprods lol I don't even know what that word means.

  • 俺は この バージョン 大好き~ 感動するダモーーンダ

  • My goodness... My japanese isn't really good so I am not able to catch some of the verses but really, even with those barriers, I can feel the pain and depression aki akane was feeling when singing this... When she goes into the final part where she is blasting through the chorus, I could barely hold back tears... I always thought that miku's version was already emotional, but the aki akane, the original singer/composer, blew the roof off. MASTERFULLY DONE!!!

  • @MrTubeStuck akiakane didn't write the song...

  • @MrTubeStuck Akiakane only illustrated the pv :3

  • ......She must've had a major sore throat after this

  • Cry all the tears!

  • call me a hater but i didnt like. i mean it was cool but i didnt like it . . .

  • @AretsuMurakami It's kay.

    We all have different tastes.

  • @AretsuMurakami I agree, WAY too much screaming. I <3 death metal, but her screaming sounds like nails on a chalkboard.. she's a good singer though, she just needs to learn how to balance her voice better.

  • This version made me cry...

  • Mou ikkai! Mou ikkai!

    I'll replay this song again today!

  • すごい力があって好きだな

    この曲って意味を調べてみると

    聞いてる以上に泣ける事を思うな…

    みんなも調べてみてください思うと思います

  • Does anyone else get shivers from listening to her?

  • Does anyone have a donwload link to this? I don't know, how to download from nico nico douga... !!!

  • 力強く歌っていいるところが大好きです!

  • ドリームクリエイターに紹介されてたね

  • もー一回!もー一回!私は今日もこ~ろがりますと少女は言う!少­女は言う!

    こーとばに意味をか~なでながらぁああ!!(`O)/

    こんな高い声出せないww

  • Wow, she has a powerful voice!

  • SHE GOES HARD WITH IT.

  • omfg the illust. i just noticed. although the pigtails and stuff will remind you of miku, isnt this the same design akiakane is drawn in?

  • ...I can actually relate to this song.

  • This gave me goosebumps :P

  • At this moment right now I am getting chills all through out my body. This. Is. Amazing.

  • @Mimzi1003 amen...

  • Comment removed

  • 2:06 the way his understanding tone is twisted to a mocking laughter is terrifying. i love this song, it's my favorite vocaloid song and she does a great job of singing.

  • I'm not trying to be mean, but I feel bad that I can't understand what everyone says.

    It really sounds like she's screaming at the top of her lungs, crying out in agony.

    It doesn't fit the video at all in my opinion. I wish I could see what everyone is praising her for.

    But she draws fucking amazing.

  • @xXShadowKitten You know that saying "I'm so mad, I could just scream"? I think that's what Akiakane's getting at. The girl in the song is angry, disappointed, and bordering on insanity. Akiakane screams a lot in this song to portray the girl's pain.

    The video is about a girl suffering. I think her voice fits it perfectly. If she sang it softly, it wouldn't be as meaningful.

  • @xXLunarEclipse896Xx

    I guess I'm tone deaf then. I kinda see Miku's version as: 'I'm slowly going insane, but I'm going to keep it bottled up inside,' and it unleashes itself in the end, and the boy notices.

    :( tonedeaf</3

  • @xXShadowKitten Well while we're on the topic of what's good and what's bad, the art style is really broken too. I mean if everything should be smooth and soft, then why do you like the edgy, rough Art Style?

    >Rough pained singing

    >Shaky rough art style

    "It doesn't fit"

    Just go back to your Miku version.

  • @FREAKINGMARTINA

    Sorry. It's just that I'm stating my opinion. But thank you for yours.

  • Akiakane=red dragonfly :)

  • I have a picture with her <3

    Thanks Japan Expo :D

  • @NoelleCoil I completely agree. As she sings, it sounds like she's struggling not to cry. It sounds amazing, and perfectly matches the emotion needed.

  • I want a loop button, please.

    Akiakane. <3

  • Some will say she ruined the original song singing that high, I say she just infused emotion to it, and that is fucking amazing, can't stop listening to it !

  • @TheCafekkos

    True, but I don't like it either, I prefer it with miku's robotic voice.. Maybe if she add some effect on hers to turn it more robotic I would like it...

    maybe =_=

  • The whole time listening to this... I was getting shivers

    This is amazing.

  • OMG SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!!! I BROKE THE REPLAY BUTTON! D=

  • this is the best Rolling Girl cover I've ever heard. i could feel her sadness and her angriness xDDD she did great!

  • Her voice, you could hear the pain, deparation and every emotion that this song is in just her voice. Though, I do believe she should be careful. I would die if she injured her voice by belting those high notes as she did, more so screaming to reach them.

  • The most intense version of this song I have ever heard. I can't speak a word of japanese, but pain is an universal language.

    Thank you, Akiakane. Color me impressed.

  • @Biikky Emotion is an universal language* :)

  • Oh.. my God. Oh.. wow..

    I'm literally crying with goosebumps. This... this version... is beautiful.

    You can just hear the anguish in her voice. ._.<3

  • I am going to sing a cover of this song by using this singing style too.But I believe that this will be cooler than me ;)

  • lol...It's Spain =u=

  • she captures the soul of this song, tears it apart, and throws it back at us with everything she's got... incredible...

  • seriously my favourite version of Rolling Girl, it's just so... beautiful!

    i searched for hours just to find this one version! it's totally worth it...

  • The last scene... No, the whole song is breath-catching.

  • I think she sang it that way on purpose. It's not exactly the happiest song out there.

  • I will give this 5/5 because I can't sing that high, because I adore Japanese people, because I can feel the emotion from this song. She really is giving her all.

    That's just me, I find some errors, yes :) And erros do exist ~ but I ignore them xDDD This song actually effect me a lot :) They give me energy when I feel down to go forward. But that's just me x3

  • Such high notes... Akiakane-san really did her best on this one... O_o

    But because of that, I really love this song. <3

  • Best song of this version ever. @__@ when you listen to this song, it makes you feel as if your sufficating inside, you can't breath so much, and with her voice makes you feel like you go WOW, and makes you want to cry, well, not really crying, but yeah. Its like as if all of her emotions explodes into this one song. The song is so magical @_@

  • I really love this song <3. I found that it's less depressing/chilling because she puts so much emotion into her voice. While this isn't a con, it shows she's willing to show her feelings. Depression, insanity, hopelessness, at the point beyond tears, etc. etc.. But, in Miku's version she sounds so calm yet insane and depressed, that for sure gives you chills. It's as if she's trying to hide her depression and horror at her life. Both versions are purely and truly amazing. <3 Vocaloid, Akiakane!

  • love the song and this version is the best of all :3

    i wanna paush the like button again and again *-*

    great job akiakane :D

  • Comment removed

  • great job. how can she that high?

  • Lol I got sent here by Tot's livestream... Awesome song I gotta say!

  • i'm sorry replay button for raping you, but i hope we can still be friends and that you won't stop working, because then i would die!!!! ^^

    OMG!!!! I <3 THIS SONG!

  • I love how this chick sing this with so much passion, im like raping the replay button XD

  • I consider that the "ah ah" adds lots of epicness to the song. o_o

  • @MarysSounds O_o  O.O o_O

  • Any mp3 version?

  • @Pantscada You can just rip it from the video through a video-to-mp3 converter.

  • yeah i agree she got off pitch sometimes but the emotions are shown well, with frustration and anger and desperation. at least she didnt use autotune to cover her flaws to it. which means she's prettty much legit. overall this version gave me 752768x more goosebumps ;~; which lead to tears

  • 秋赤音さんの歌のアレンジが大好きです^^

  • I guess her voice fits the emotion of the song but she's incredibly off-pitch alot of the time and it throws the song off.

  • Some parts I didn't like, most of them I liked. A 3/5 or 4/5 would be fine.

  • เหอะๆ

  • my ears hurt... im sorry...(T^T)

  • Personally I didn't like it, too much screaming. At least in my opinion it was screaming. I like hearing a more calm version of this song, so it sounds like the girl is building everything inside and not showing how depressed and insane she's being driven. This version just sounds like she's literally crazy. But again, that's just me.

  • @kittyGurl523 no offense! butt thts pretty much akiakane she's in a rock band and screams alot. jst telling u!

  • @MissXoxoLuv none taken. I kinda figured, it just isn't my preference for this specific song. She does have a good voice though, better than mine.

  • @kittyGurl523 no i bet u hav a gr8 voice!!!! :)

  • Akiakane has talent in drawing and singing, EPIC WIN.

    Great to hear a person singing this song after hearing Miku's version after like 1000 times :O

  • @Gymnasticseverywhere The song is actually about a girl who reaches for unattainable goals. she reaches and reaches, whilst being bullied by those around her and slowly going mad. Now, without the video, she feels better by the end. With the video, she discovers that someone was supporting her the whole time.

  • Do any of them have english lricys to it?

  • Fine, I was wrong... lots of people get this stuff wrong, so stop bugging me! That was what I thought, so, yeah, I know I was wrong, so there! Now, PLEASE stop bugging me!

  • THIS HOW THE SONG SHOULD BE! SHE MAKE THE FEEL OF FRUSTRATION OF A GIRL! GO GO AKIAKANAE!!!!!!!!! MOU IKAI MOU IKAI !

  • @JUZKILL Mo ikkai actually ;)

  • @JUZKILL Sry if I sounded mean :S

  • Akiakane's version of this song is fantastic. I love her voice, it's obvious this song means a lot to her. She's also so talented, think about it, she wrote the song, made the animation that goes to it, AND sung it. That takes a lot of talent.

    I can only imagine what she must have been going through when she made this, the song is about someone who is depressed but at the same time wants to keep going on with her life. It's meaningful and very deep.

    All in all, this is an incredible feat.

  • @littlemollymouse

    You're right,but Akiakane isn't the one who wrote this ;D

    It's the famous wowaka~~

  • @Leistrophstring Oh? I thought she wrote it. She's amazing either way.

  • Comment removed

  • @OneOrangeSodaPlease I'm a bit... unsure what to say about your comment, because it wasn't Crypton Future Media or YAMAHA who wrote the song; it wasn't "Nico Nico Douga" who made the animation and art (hell, NND is just a community site like youtube, does youtube make all these videos uploaded to it?)

    Have you even bothered reading the video's description either here or on nico?

  • @OneOrangeSodaPlease I've never seen anyone be more wrong in one comment.

  • @littlemollymouse She didn't write the song or make the animation that goes to it. She only sang it.

  • @CirnoTV She didn't made the animation but she did the drawings :3.

  • @littlemollymouse She only made the MV..

  • Amazing :D It sounds just like if it should be this way :D

  • Akiakane could sing,draw.and animate........im jealous.-3-

  • Okay, I should point out:

    Yes, this version has a lot more feeling in it. Like it actually means something to the singer.

    But Miku is a "robot." one of the themes of vocaloid is that the characters sing calmly, even if-- especially if-- it doesn't fit the situation.

    Think about it this way: Akiakane's version uses the real voice, frustration, bitterness, and sadness. Miku's version uses synthesized voice, despair, and the concept of bitterness and sadness.

    Miku has always given up already.

  • @elvensith001 In synthecity lies its own form of beauty.

  • @elvensith001 After reading your description, I felt a chill down my spine when i read that last line.....you captured the essence of Miku's version of this song perfectly.......

  • @elvensith001 I like your perspective on Miku.

    

  • Crazy!

  • this is another vocaloid song that i hate the miku version of. But when i heard this version i fell inlove with the song.

  • @KaminaXequalXGawd Same here. IMHO, Miku's voice is terrible. It's way too high-pitched. But all the covers... god, they're glorious.

  • The way she sings it really fits the song, she is like venting her frustrations.

  • Wow your singing is incredible.

  • akiakane's style of singing fits this song and video perfectly. she's so awesome :D

  • why is there no mp3!!! D:

  • @jazminz3p their is one you just need to go onto the nico nico website and look for it ;p

  • I dont understand why 3 people dislike this, her voice is so touching. It fit's the song better than Miku

  • her voice fits the chaotic aspect of this song very well.

  • >one more time

    Get the shit kicked out of you, ONE MORE TIME. Domestic abuse is hilarious.

  • if you miku's and akiakane's at the same time it sounds pretty awesome ^.^

  • ほんとすごいです!*_*

  • 鳥肌が(゚Д゚*)

    すごいです!

  • @YutaBaby07

    whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?

  • @YutaBaby07 Lol wtf are u tlking about?

  • @YutaBaby07 FTW......

  • @YutaBaby07 O.o

  • 大好きです!!!

  • Beautiful.

  • すごぃ(°q°

  • Your songs ROCK!! your drawings are great too!

  • god this version...gives me chills *shudders*

  • Play this at the same time as listening to Miku's version. I promise you, its amazing. :)

  • @HanukoUchiha

    amg oAo

    I did it and although it took forever to get them at the same time, it sounds so awesome... Especially at the end when it got really intense.

  • i have just fallen in love with with an angel of pure musical beauty

  • @Wildtail16 don't get to dramatic now...

  • my god there's so much emotion in her version...this is ...wow, just incredible!

  • Akiakane's voice perfectly captures the essence of insanity and desperation present behind the song.

    She's truly talented. I'm even still in love with Migikata after so long.

  • I think she was stressing her voice too much :c

    Poor Akiakane

  • @Mishi40 I stress my voice WAY too much too......

    only it doesn't some out anywhere near Akaikane~

  • Good song , i enjoyed it.

  • Very nice voice -- goes extremely well with the song and conveys the emotions perfectly. However, I must say that I was bothered by the harmony; it wasn't done right and sounded dissonant at more than one occasion.

  • I know, I really want someone to combine the 'Ah, ah' to Miku's song. How awesome would that be? 8D

  • her voice is absolutely beautiful. it's really powerful compared to all this poppy crap you normally see with japanese singers outside of visual kei.

  • the last part when she went up high , i juz had to have shivers run dwn my spine x.x

  • This song gives me shivers. It's just...so awesome!

  • I get chills everytime I listen to this. Akiakane just puts that much more emotion into an already tear-jerking song.

  • @groucho307 IKR :D

  • Is it true that akiakane made this the day she graduated?

  • @chikuela She didn't make them all in one day. She uploaded them the day she graduated. ^^ She must've planned it and everything.

  • i like retarded songs

  • @wikipediafornoobs I couldn't help but laugh at your comment

  • Eargasm for three minutes and twenty seconds.

  • 歌い方あんまり好きなたいぷじゃないけど

    こんな風に歌えたらすげーと思う。

    pvもすっごいし

    才能偏りすぎ・・・・・・(´・ω・)

    うらやましーなーうらやましーなー

  • I think I've listen to this song like 30+ times today! @.@

    And I still love it! :3

  • @ShinKaiser lol i know its 3 weeks already since i heard it still going strong :D
