The new generation’s Ikimonogakari, and
The new generation’s Ikimonogakari, and just like them, they’re a great band. And even though they’re a bit of a new band to the scene, they have enough bangers that I thought a top 50 was necessary for them. Similarly to sumika, they definitely excel in bringing uplifting piano rock tracks (albeit with a different flare) and Haruko Nagaya’s emotional vocals complement that so well. She’s probably my favorite female vocalist within the new generation of J-Pop, or at the very least up there with ACAne (ZUTOMAYO), Aimyon, Ikuta Lilas (YOASOBI), and eill. Between making lists for SEKAI NO OWARI, HIGEDAN, sumika Mrs. GREEN APPLE and now Ryokushaka (and USG coming soon too) I think I’m just a sucker for upbeat pop rock bands lmao. Their top 20 is insanely goated imo and they’ve been able to deliver amazing songs on both anime series and dramas. Speaking of which, they just released their new song which is the OP for The Apothecary Diaries, and I’m really happy not only because it’s a banger, but because as soon as the anime was announced, I thought this would be something that they’d fit like a charm. The series also has a good size fanbase in Japan so I hope the song does notably. Also, weirdly enough a good portion of my top tracks are the ones composed by Shingo Anami, but that’s not to discredit Nagaya as a composer though, as she also did my number 3, 6.5, 7, 9, 10 and 13, which are all fantastic. And speaking of the composers, I included all of the work they’ve been involved with in terms of other artists as well, since it still feels very Ryokushaka even when they’re involved with other artists (side note: New Normal was not used in MHA but it sounds so MHA that I couldn’t resist using an MHA visual for it lmao. I was also tempted to put Bleach visuals for merry-go-round, Spy x Family visuals for Korekara no Koto, and Urusei Yatsura visuals for Michi wo Yuke, but I don’t like to add unrelated visuals too often). One last note, some of their B-Sides are really strong, like some of the album only tracks for their self titled album and SINGALONG are a little sleeper, but somehow their coupling tracks for their singles blow those out of the water in a lot of cases. In terms of albums though, I’d definitely recommend pink blue and Actor. I highly recommend them as a great upbeat band to listen to around a sunny day in spring or summer, but even in the winter, tracks like White Rabbit and Don! are such a vibe imo.
