[@Sedkitgar]

All this time, I thought he was a famous old producer. Glad, he found himself as vtuber to relax a little bit. Music Industry is crazy right now. Great documentary.

For more context, yes Identity is made for a cup noodle advertisement, and that is a collab between cup noodle and a MIKU GACHA GAME btw, alongside Blue Paint (kujira), Salamander (Deco*27), Cosmo Spice (Pinnocchino-p) and Cup Noodle Prohibition (Mitchie M). He really made a song promoting cup noodle this good. He made a song about the collaboration between Project Sekai and Cup Noodles specifically the Plain Flavor and he made this.

[@amaiacalliope]

omg no way i didnt know Azari was young too, finding out Kanaria is young was already a shock

[@Sc3neNaegi]

Honestly, as someone who's young and loves making music, Kanaria really is one of my BIGGEST inspirations. Man, Kanaria NEVER misses!

[@otsukareboku]

Man I didn't know he went through a lot. It's not just talent at play here, there's sheer determination to pursue his passion and it's not something that everyone can pull off.

[@proxyhx2075]

Man I sure do love Kanaria! Every single one of their tracks hit the spot.

[@Yiman]

he carried the covid era of all things vtuber/vocaloid music🔥 as a hoshiyomi, his collab songs with suisei have always been rotation

​@@Yiman exactly!! It's a little sad that he isn't as popular as he used to be, but that's a good thing. He can finally have some breathing room. (His music now has an overall more lofi vibe to it and I'm all here for it!!) I just hope dude lives a happy life.

today i learned kanaria was a man. always assumed a woman was behind those songs because of the covers, never dug past that

[@snowball03-boop]

The voice certainly fooled me in Requiem. But the more I listen to him, I can start to tell.

[@snowball03-boop]

6:24 and 6:54 Hearing these two talk, compared to how their voices mesh together into one in REQUIEM just freaked me out in the best way. This contrast is insane.

[@-pine4342]

I have always liked Kanaria's songs, but I like him even more after writing my school assignment about Vocaloid, and I needed to do research about him 4 months ago! His background and music style really shocked me. It made me realize how crazy he is as a musician. When he dropped Never Fiction, it immediately became my favorite song, too. It surprised me when he suddenly uploaded a streaming waiting room. After that first stream, my Kanaria addiction era began. I watched every stream he did live, I drew Kanaria FA, and I kept singing Kanaria songs in karaoke. He is that life-changing for me. Kanaria is really a human being, his totsu yesterday full of funny happy and sad feelings. He can feel many emotions too, he is not some robot or something. He can feel happy when he meets his good friend, he can get annoyed and scared too. He is someone who needs a place to ramble about his problem, too... I will continue to pursuing this (just started) oshikatsu of mine lmao!

[@MicyPie]

**nods head furiously**

[@Yiman]

yup that is why streaming for him was sucha good move! we are able to see many new sides of him and from that more people are able to relate to him!

[@perfectheart9057]

thank you so much for making this video!! ive never seen any videos like this about kanaria, and i never knew his backstory before he started making music. this is a great video, keep up the good work!!

[@meeeeeeeeeeeeeewi]

as someone who genuinely adores Kanaria, this just made me respect and look up to him even more, he's so amazing ♡

[@YuttaButtahhhh]

I remember his first song popping up as an ad on KZbin and following him since

[@love.hw4ng]

i found a reddit thread from like 5 years ago titled "who the f is kanaria!?!?" they were probably a teen at the time, and people knew them for king, but they were still considered a young, up and coming vocalsynth producer. i'm glad they've come so far.

[@sharpnelshots]

I really got into Kanaria after King and I was amazed that it was an 18 year old that made that song! Imagine if he and Ado collab it would be something to think about Love the video!

[@MegumiHiranooooo]

He did collab with her! The song domestic violence on her album Kyougen was produced by KANARIA.

[@Absbor]

Reminds me of vocacircus' making "circus monster" when they were 13. Teens like me felt spoken to from this song.

When I think of the word "underrated", I tend to automatically assume it's about not well known/niche topics that deserve to have more visibility. To avoid misunderstanding, you could've worded it like "No amount of recognition/praise is enough for Kanaria's work"

[@goose774]

Not sure if anyone will read this random a** long comment and sorry in advance if my rusty english is a little bit weird, but I have a few things that I just have to say. It's been 3 days since I've seen this video and I finally gathered my courage to share this. I knew who Kanaria was but I knew nothing about his life, so I thank you for spreading the word about someone with such a great determination as him. I love music and, long story short, I started singing when I was 14. People often told me that I wasn't great or that my voice sounded awful, so by the time I was 17 I quit. 12 years later (2023), when I turned 29, I thought "f**k it, I'll start singing again no matter what people say" and unfortunately sh** happens and I started suffering with gastroesophageal reflux disease, so I had to stop for a year cause singing started to be really, really hard. I've done a lot of treatments and it seems that I got a little bit better but I never got back the way that I used to be. So what does this story has to do with everything? You see, I'm extra thankful to this video because after knowing about Kanaria's story, this guy showed that no matter how awful life seems, if you truly love your craft, you can do it. You can achieve your dreams. Kanaria just became my inspiration and I feel that I can live my dream someday. Now I'm 30. It's been two weeks since I started tried to sing daily again and honestly it's still bad, but not as bad as before. And 3 days after seeing this video I gathered my courage just to come here and say: thank you. Thank you for sharing that story. And I swear I'll be a hell of a good singer someday, no matter what happens.

Darn it, soon enough we'll be having 9 year old vocaloid producers 😭

[@htsunmiku]

we kinda have. The person who made "young girl a" had a lot of their hits around 15 yrs old. (may they rest in peace). On the English side, a lot of them were young teens too when they started. (kira, circus. both around 14-15 when they got hits)

[@BVK.]

@htsunmiku hol' on, rest in peace? What happened to the first producer you've mentioned?

[@htsunmiku]

@@BVK. Sinnmota/powapowa p. He passed away in 2015 at age 20. Assumed suicide. His last song kinda suggested to why. He was afraid of becoming an adult , and wasn't sure how he'd continue on. This is why I'm all for congratulating young success. But it's important to be careful because you'll have people who are still young (20s etc) thinking it's over because didn't do something big by 18 or are simply afraid of aging because people are so focused on age.
