As a fan of Enna who came across your channel from your Skyfall reaction, I really appreciate your technical comments. I don’t know much about the technicality of singing and love learning about it.
She has a naturally real nasal voice, so much so that she sounds completely different while talking.
I also recommend one of her friends: Ike Eveland, a metal singer with a magical voice as well.
Here is their duet: ua-cam.com/video/ZXFkDXaJ234/v-deo.html
Here is Ike alone: ua-cam.com/video/PSWj_nyQtn8/v-deo.html

About the comments, they were using baguette emotes cause they sort of look like lightsticks lol. Lightsticks are usually used by fans in the crowd of Japanese Idol concerts to cheer for the singer. But to emulate a cheering audience they just make do with a baguette haha
someone should suggest the karaoke stream that she dedicated to her grandmother!! mononoke hime and ethyria were especially good songs showcasing the higher end of her range. boku ga shinou to omotta no wa and sukinanosa were also great examples of her lower register and vocal agility. i think 3/4 of these songs should have lyric translations
here’s the link to her karaoke! ua-cam.com/users/live4QptregL4YU?si=ZgYszvHuzwaJTsXw

Enka is a fairly traditional style of Japanese music, much of which is done in this ballad style. The nasal tone is prevalent in these, you'll hear it from pretty much any Enka singer, but as other commenters have said, Enka involves a lot of flipping between head and chest voice quickly, and almost has a Theatrical or "Musical" quality in how the lyrics are expressed. I think much of it doesn't click with western audiences due to that trademark nasality, which for the most part isn't utilized in western music, but I do wish more people would be open to it. Tons of cultures use nasal tones for expression in music, and I think it would be great if more could appreciate the beauty of it. Enna's voice is incredibly well suited to the Enka genre- and clearly, many others. Thanks for the review!
the nasality is a fairly common feature in the enka style i think. as well as the agility to quickly jump around when other styles might be holding a long note. i think you can see that skill being used in skyfall for example in the "yodel" you discussed
This is one of my absolute favourite covers by her, Enka is a genre that never fails to amaze me and Enna performed it beautifully.
Your comments were very interesting and insightful, thank you so much!
I've been a fan of everything 'Japan culture' for my entire adult life, enjoying everything musically from Koto, to Enka, to City Pop, to Jpop, to Jrock, and more. Enka is as you describe, VERY nasally and incorporates a warble in the throat while singing, much akin to yodeling. If you ever hear traditional enka in your journey, it had a big boom in the 70's and resurfaced thanks to Hollywood. The latest group I can think of that made it popular again would be Wagakki Band.
Unnämed also known as u-San is also a vtuber, they are independent singer and have an absolutely power vocal in my opinion! I really recommend them
His covers of god-ish and his original song know as summer song is also incredibly 💙🤍
Also his new cover of CH4NGE is also very good
Thanks for reacting to more of Enna's karaoke songs, she's a hardworking vocalist and my favorite singer among vtubers. She has an amazing range and taste in music, I wasn't familiar with Enka until she sang those types of songs and had karaoke streams on them (her family loves the genre so its something she's grown up with if I remember right.) I hope you can analyze and listen to more of her singing! I personally love her entire Higurashi fan concert, it was one of her passion projects.
I am a singer myself and honestly love Enna’s voice and as well watching your videos reacting to it!
It would actually be really cool if you dive more into the world of vtubers, there's a lot of amazing and talented singers and such a variety as well. Ren Zotto is one that is another amazing singer from the same company as Enna, he has a lot of original songs, his debut one being 'Blue Sugar', but my favourite songs of his are 'Wanderer' and 'Casket'.
If you want another Enna song to react to, one of her originals is called 'Mushroom' (originally a song she randomly sung in a game, a fan made music for it and it became an official thing) or her first song which is called 'Wish of this Songbird' all these songs are found on their channels.
Let's just say that vtubers seem to have an unusually high number of great singers with many of them self taught.
the song is called amagi goe by ishikawa sayuri and everytime enna sings it, i'm astounded. thank you for reviewing her singing! there's a lot of vtubers that are skilled at singing and enna is my favorite female voice in their company. it was nice hearing your technical comments and glad you enjoyed her singing despite the language barrier 💗
Personally I've been enabled of Enna's singing since she debuted.... The song from her debut is called "Wish of this Songbird" and is really worth checking out for all of the harmony vocals she does: ua-cam.com/video/BD6-Jjovz-o/v-deo.htmlsi=x8mFRRSO0swvRzqq
A fan of enna's voice ❤❤❤❤
You should react to Enna singing “Odo”, that’s definitely one of Enna’s best live performances!
Let's go, another Enna video! I recommend listening to her original song "Ethyria" the lyrics are completely made up meaning there isn't a language being spoken, so appreciating the song is completely different. It's a VERY beautiful song, if you don't decide to make a video on it, please listen to it offline at the least. Thanks for the Enna reacts!
ua-cam.com/video/2SZbnGJAymg/v-deo.htmlsi=bXUuQVNzcZgnLZX-
I love how you react to all the goings on in the stream. It’s very interesting to hear both your technical comments and your impressions on streaming as a creative outlet and product.
Thanks to the Aloupeep who recommended this. I never heard this cover before! ❤
As a fan of Enna, I am so happy you do another reaction for Enna's singing!
welcome to the wonderful world of vtubing, dont think too much about it and just follow us into the rabbithole. some of the most unique and skilled live performers are waiting for you to discover them.
Any time Enna opens her mouth to sing, I get butterflies. 🦋
Thanks for another great video Ken! Hope to see you react to more VTuber content in the future.
Subscribed! 🎉
You should do a reaction to one of her official covers or original songs! These have all been karaoke covers so far and I want to see what you think of her voice when it’s properly mixed and polished
I love how the comments are full of singing vtubers recommendations
I’m seeing a few familiar names which I’m happy are there
Hoping to see more vtubers reactions ❤
Your reaction are very interesting thanks for the video 😊, i really was unfamiliar woth enka before even listening to Enna cover and i was interested in the style of if because i feel it express a lot of emotuon just by the amount of pauses and style of singing i never heard of, so what they were commenting was a baguette 🥖🥖 basically it's a way of cheering they represent light sticks like for concerts of idols 😂
So excited to see you review more of Enna’s singing! It would be cool to hear more of your commentary after doing a deep dive into the musical style of Enka ❤
Another Enna vid wooohooo!
Personally, seeing other people especially the pros appreciate my faves is really validating. Thanks for the vid!
You should check out IronMouse. She’s also a vtuber. She’s a classically trained singer. Check out her cover of “When I look at you” or really anything. She’s amazing.
it's really strange for hear reaction of Enka songs by people who's never heard Enka recommended by fans whose never heard Enka except when Enna did it... Enka is the pop music of Japan and rest of Asia during the last century; right now it's the music of the older "boomer" generation. The popular Kohaku year end singing contest still feature a lot of Enka along with pop music. As someone who has heard a lot of Enka, all I can say is that everything Enna did is exactly how an Enka should be performed, including the vibrato and the nasality. Don't conflict Enka performance with any Western pop song performance.
watching your commentary on enna's singing helps me further understand and develop my own, i love enna and i love when you react to her lovely voice!
thank you for your reaction to Enna's karaoke!! She is one of my fav virtual livers and her singing voice is amazing!
UA-cam recommended a great video! I'm not usually one for "react" videos, but Ken is a great commentator and definitely knows this field. I'm tempted to send some Machita Chima videos over... Maybe her opera singing.
Of all the Japanese songs she sang/covered, Goddish is my favourite, and I think it showcase how great her singing voice is.
First time I heard her sing the song is on live karaoke: ua-cam.com/video/z5Nd5XsbPWo/v-deo.htmlsi=TDQB-3Q6k2Mk-goi
Fans really liked her singing the song (the original clip reached millions of views but is now deleted)
She made a music video cover of the song.
Here's the link for the MV version: ua-cam.com/video/Dg6dG3U6n-c/v-deo.htmlsi=3K1GrNZqKNAnvZBg
I think you will like the MV. It shows how serious vtubers, and utaite are with their song covers.
I'm glad more people are able to see, hear, and appreciate Enna's singing = )
Enna is a real power house im glad youre going down this hole i hope you continue to find these gems
ANOTHER ENNA JAM! THANKS!
If you want to keep going down this rabbit hole, I recommend the cover of EXEC_PHANTASMAGORIA by Maria Marionette, Enna Alouette, and Seffyna here - ua-cam.com/video/Cf326Awf95c/v-deo.html
Vtubers covering a video game song, and it is excellent.
I also second another commenter's recommendation of Ike Eveland.
Wait more of Enna ❤ let’s go!!!
Hearing you mention 'Immediacy' is a word that just opened up my views on singing
I had a feeling for it
but now there's a way to label it by
So big thankyous for this new piece of knowledge
“ENKA SONG” is funny. In Japanese, "ENKA" is a compound word of "EN" speech and "KA" song. It began during the Meiji period when people gave speeches to the tune of music.
So, your “ENKA SONG” will be “speech song song” wwwwww
I remember listening to this cover many times because I loved it so much (still do) her voice is so powerful and unique that's why she's the songbird of Hel- Heaven🛐
What Hel- what is it huh?
エナーの歌う演歌がだいすき
Thanks for the reaction video🥹💜
Enka style of singing is more in nasality as a japanese these the more you use your nasal in your voice it gives you a capacity to go to high notes and sudden drop to low notes and twist the notes and also these is the way you express your emotion in my own perspective.I don't know literally the enka style.
Since vtubers are not off the table could you watch a recent cover akuma no ko cover from Lucien Lunaris
It is a song I never thought a male voice would suit and he did it really well.
Enna is an amazing singer and one of the songs that really shows the top of her range is her God-ish cover! Thank you for the video!
YES MORE ENNAAAA
You should def check out Enna's godish cover too! It's amazing :D
as someone who likes enna and grew up listening to enka songs bc of my father she sounds so much like those old grandmas singing especially with the changes of her voice on certain times reminds me of a certain singer i forgot the name of
Plenty amazing singers in the vtuber scene, it's almost ridiculous. But so cool, too, with so many different styles. And also quite a few who just love to sing, despite not being the best at it and comfortably able to do so, because of the avatar. Pretty amazing environment, I feel, even with the downsides.
In terms of traditional singing, like enka, I at least want to mention (and suggest) Obokuri - Eeumi. It's from the anime Samurai Champloo and features, from what I understand, a very regionally specific style of singing from Amami in Japan, apparently called Shimauma (there's a huge, very interesting explanatory comment under the most popular video of the song). Incredibly melancholic feel to it, especially when it appears in the anime. There's also a shorter live version of it, sung by the singer Ikue Asazaki.
i love enna aloutte
Hey Ken if you were surprised by Enna singing voice vs her speaking voice then checking out Ironmouse's singing "When i look at you" will be a real interesting too.
An interesting thing you might not think of when it comes to Enna as an artist is also something that you pointed out at the end - vtubers get treated "as the character" when on stream, but the movement and reactions to everything using the motion capture is a type of puppetry!
Now you really have to react to the vtuber Ironmouse singing!
She has a chronic disease which heavily affects her body but is trained as a classical singer and oh boy, she can do some magic.
If you enjoyed Enna, i want to recommend you another virtual singer, Isekai Joucho. She has a soothing yet strong and powerful voice that she uses and has been said by her group mates as she can be your angel or devil whenever.
An example of her being an angel would be a song like Arcadia or Heart of Sirius.
And a great example of devil would be a song like Pandora's Call.
Heart of Sirius is a brilliantly crafted love song. See if you can pick out all the unique points
you should hear her original song Mushroom
She sings so well. Until about a month ago, I had no idea some vtubers were so talented.
Nasality is a staple of enka. It's essentially one of its biggest defining characteristics.
And this is one of the many ways into the rabbit hole... One of us! 😂
IIRC, because of the difference between her speaking/gremlin voice and her singing voice, the first time she sung on stream some people thought she was playing some else's recording as a joke.
I remember I turned into pure confusion and amazement.
Please react to Enna's Mushroom song!
I love your reviews of ennas live singing! she has an incredible and enchanting voice. and if you would like to look at other vtubers who sing, I highly recommend the gremolin queen herself Iron mouse. She's a trained Opera singer whose speaking voice, vice her singing voice is HUGE. unfortunately due to her becoming severely ill, she had to stop pursuing music for a while /watch?v=ZFpfqk_jmDA
It is live! Same with the previous, those comments on the bottom right corner are all live people!
Welcome to the rabbit hole o7
7:40 that's Mexican Pesos as far as I know
So not quite 100 in freedom dollars
Basically those are stream donations, like when people play on the street and have a hat there for coins, that's basically the same
Ethyria, original soundtrack, great choise
ua-cam.com/video/zUGVQqGoZps/v-deo.htmlsi=QJsOcdFU1dmNxu2Y
You can also listen to something Japanese with subtitles
ua-cam.com/video/5RsNhcIH-B4/v-deo.htmlsi=xSEBhG65nWuK9BzA
This song is from a stream dedicated to her grandmother
ua-cam.com/video/cHbg_uMSDQo/v-deo.htmlsi=Z6sp7bWe3SggjYMz
Not the best example of vocals, but a funny cover
would love to see your reaction to Serafina Ch's cover of Golden Hour by JVKE 😍
The emotes in the chat are breadsticks 🥖 back when she didn't have membership open and no custom emotes yet! Lol Also that wasn't 100 dollars, it was 100MXN which is about 5 USD 😆
Man her voice is so beautiful, i love her so much 🥺
Yeah, not bad👍
I just across your channel from Skyfall reaction and I didn't expect you would do reaction for this song 😮 Thanks, it's so cool to always learn vocal technicall from vocal teacher. Anyway, if you want to know more about her range, I think her God-ish cover (ua-cam.com/video/Dg6dG3U6n-c/v-deo.htmlsi=aXBVUNop9jtuA4cI) and another cover of an OST game by her, Maria and Seffyna (her co-liver from same agency) did pretty well go potray it! (ua-cam.com/video/Cf326Awf95c/v-deo.htmlsi=VTw0P1yjhurb0ljI)
ken lavigne vtuber debut when?
Ken Lavigne my future oshi 🎤 😂
Hello if you are able to it would be amazing to see you react to Enna’s song ETHYRIA (original soundtrack).
Hello Ken, My name is Normand (aka Norm). Originally from Fall River, MA. Paul Lavigne was my brother. Would like to know if we are related. Thanks!
Just a new subscriber here, I don't have money rn but when i do, I'll request you to react to Scaramouche boss theme (both phase 1 and 2) 🙏🙏
Same here
Hi I need to hear your reaction to the song Ya Wafiyya by Kazem El Saher
I would like for you to react to some of ironmouse's singing
Would you be able to check out a another vtuber called Calliope Mori i suggest End Of A Life to listen to loving your reactions
You didnt put the original link in the description only the "original here:"
Looks like you are getting into a Vtubers rabbit hole =) There are some Vtubers who is very good at singing. One i'm really like is Ironmouse, her performance of The Ballad of Jane Doe form Ride the Cyclone is very good, worth to check out.
Seconded! Honestly it's amazing hearing Ironmouse sing anything at all, I always love hearing her revert to opera singing, especially knowing what that means in terms of her battle against CVID and the life she had before it
You have to react to ironmouse
Sod it, if we're throwing you down the vtuber rabbit hole, I'll toss my suggestion for Nerissa Ravencroft - Love me Love me Love me, or Godish.She has amazing talent that I think you'll enjoy
Bro Where's the link for the original
Enka? I only think of Killer Bee-Sama!
Just got into watching your videos due to the Enna Skyfall reaction. I would love your thoughts on one of my favorite Vtubers’ original song (also in Japanese but in a very different style): ua-cam.com/video/jBgCkYECapk/v-deo.htmlsi=qgIhlBkNVullqkX5 . Her name is Ririsya and the song is called Close to You
Enka genre music has a lot of flipping from head voice and chest voice
Why don't you try listening to her original song ethyria and the ethyria final ending
Enna's voice is an anomaly istg, you'd be surprised to hear her normal talking voice 😂
I can say that VTubers has been blast in last years, there a lot of talents amongst them and they produce a lot of music! Not just a covers, but their originals too! There is so much going on at the moment that it wouldn't fit in one comment.
Rather than that instead of long explanations, I think I would rather suggest you reacting to Enna's original song! Song called *ETHYRIA* and it have 2 versions:
normal, just *ETHYRIA* ua-cam.com/video/2SZbnGJAymg/v-deo.html
and *ETHYRIA // TRUE END* ua-cam.com/video/zUGVQqGoZps/v-deo.html
If you gonna react on it it would be better if you listen to both in one video, so that you can compare them as well. This is also one of my favorite song from Enna, but I actually have a lot of favorites from her (about ~35 songs)
Lastly if you like her singing, make sure to check other talents, because there just a lot of talented people within VTubers who have their own original songs as well as a lot of covers.
should checkout ironmouse another vtubers she is an amazing singer who probably has the most insane range of any vtuber
Диана Анкудинова ua-cam.com/video/u9rBsvNRY3I/v-deo.htmlsi=UOgpNBNRC4LD56X1 есть английские субтитры
3:59 probaby, I've seen the original and they have similar techniques. Maybe you should educate urself first abt the genre before make a commentary video especially if u r not familiar with the genre.
Hmmm... Not my cup of 🍵Do appreciate Your Videos, though! Thanks! 💙💙💙💙💙🦩
Farm those vtuber clicks king, we yearn for more too🥸
