I have all three CDs on my computer! Great stuff :> Great hearing Umehara Yuuichirou~

The second CD is my fav, because it has Ono Kensho, KENN, Toriumi Kousuke, Midorikawa Hikaru and Kakihara Tetsuya!!

After hearing kradness's amazing cover (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daybRF2pcmA) as well as some of the amazing nico nico choruses and other utaites' covers, I feel like these guys didn't really sing the song with much energy. If you're a fan of them, then I can see how it might be cooler, but in my opinion it was a bit ho-hum. Not bad, but not quite the power I was hoping for. Then again, they are mainly seiyu and not singers, right? Still, it's really cool to see so many covers of my favorite song. Smile

Yes, I absolutely agree with you. The popular utaites are much more better. Although I own some of the albums, I felt they're kind of disappointing. They sound a little bit lazy, even.
But that's just my opinion. It's cool enough to have voice actors sing vocaloid songs.

Utaites are focused on singing, so yeah of course they'd be good.

I'm more surprised this EXIT TUNES series hasn't asked better seiyuu singers like Suzuki Tatsuhisa, Suzumura Kenichi, Miyano Mamoru, Taniyama Kishow or Suwabe Junichi yet.. I guess they're busy with other things ^^

Vocaloid doesn't necessarily mean just Miku... >_>

While my favorite cover of the song is Wagakki Band's version, they are doing nice job as well. I've heard a few songs from the albums: my favorite probably is Subarashiki Nyansei duo between Sho Hayami and Ryota Takeuchi.
