Yes I think Bandori's vocalists have stronger voices to pair with their instrumentals, while Pjsk specializes in melody, they make more high and soft notes
@@jaehahaagreed. Though kinda disappointing for VBS since they’re the “powerful vocal street singers” and stuff. I wish they were a bit more like Bandori vocalists.
Yeah, Proseka is more covers without much arrangement paired to the group which fits the song most (in most cases, or just Leo/Need for no reason lol), while Bandori always arranges them quite a lot to fit to the singing band's theme and singers. tbh I dont have a general preference, love both styles and games to the moon and back. tl;dr: if you want "faithful" covers go proseka, if you love more freely arranged ones go bandori.
There's really only 3 main difference between the two that really change them for me. One bandori makes custom instrumentals while proseka doesn't. Two early on proseka had difficulties mixing character voices together and character and vocaloid voices together though thats mostly solved now. And lastly in almost all bandori covers theres only one vocalist unless its a special song, all mrmbers join in for a word or two, or its RAS with chuu2.
i dont mind the line distribution though. in project sekai, theyre meant to resemble units where many members song and dont play instruments. in bandori, every band is meant to resemble actual rock bands, with different styles. kasumi, ran, yukina, etc (and ichika) get all the lines because theyre the lead singers. its just the nature of the style
proseka also changes the composition of instrumentals, most aren't that noticeable when you listen to it for the first time. proseka's covers tried to be as close to the og songs unlike bandori
The reason why Bandori’s vocals are more loud is because the groups are based on real units and the singers are used to/sing more naturally live so they have a much more powerful voice. This is notable when you listen to pjsk live performances. They sound far better in the studio than live performances
@@ElectricOrange absolutely FACTS. Roselia, RAS, Morfonica, etc all sound incredible in concert. I've heard Roselia live twice and RAS live once - they both blew me away completely. Don't get me wrong, I love strong studio vocals, but the live concert experience for bandori is PEAK
as a pjsk player who has dipped into bandori a few times, never fully dipping, two things I’ve absolutely ADORED about bandori is how they put a spin on things, and their artstyle. The fact that all the bands sound different to the originals sparks so much more, along with the different vocals. Still recognizable, but they achieve more in pulling my heart.
As a Sekai player, the biggest problem with the covers is that it seems like the VAs have to sing in such a way that they don’t totally overpower the Vocaloids. Even then, the Vocaloids are poorly tuned and end up sounding like awkward backing vocals. The covers without the Vocaloids are really good, like Dramaturgy and Venom. For Bandori, their covers get custom instrumentals that really complement the vocals. It also sounds very good.
a few things i would like to point out: -a vast majority of bandori's vocaloid covers are done by afterglow, whose vocalist has an infamously powerful and rather husky voice. especially when compared to project sekai's singers (especially ichika), ran has a lot of energy with her voice, and the juxtaposition can be pretty off-putting. -often, bandori's vocalists fall strictly into either the "powerful" or "cutesy" categories. the exception to this is usually mashiro, but morfonica had covered a grand total of 1 vocaloid song (which i think is quite a pity, them having a violin and all but i digress), and the only other vocaloid song she sings in is shared with kasumi. i personally think mashiro's voice is very flexible, and bandori not using her often makes their covers in general fall off a bit more than sekai. -project sekai's singers tend to be a lot more reserved than bandori's. coupled with poor mixing especially in the older covers, this may sway the otherwise energetic/desperate nature of some songs *cough* lost one's weeping *cough* -because a lot of sekai's covers feature all 4 unit members singing, sometimes alongside a vocaloid, their voices are prone to muddling each other up and result in a messy cover. i think the most prominent example of this is daybreak frontline, which in the first place calls for at most 2 singers. -sekai's conservative nature can sometimes hold back the potential of their singers, especially compared to bandori which takes a lot of liberty in their arrangements. but bandori also tends to overdo a lot of instrumentals at the same time. -sekai, by nature, places more focus on vocals and the lyrics of a song, whearas bandori had a whole band behind each cover. because of this, bandori places more emphasis on the instrumentals, and i think the vocalists should not be the everyone's main focus of the covers. the bass in setsuna trip, for example, goes SO HARD. bang dream and project sekai are ultimately vastly different franchises, meant for different target audiences. they just kinda ended up on the sane path. and i think it's pretty interesting to see their similarities and differences. edit: since i have written this, Pastel Palettes and Pareo have covered wakusei loop and this is probably the first cover they made without a main vocalist! also MORFONICA COVERED QUEEN AND IM SO HAPPY
anyway here are my ratings, from a bandori main (total: bandori 16 pjsk 13): happy synthesizer: they sound pretty close to me, but *ayachisa* really put the "happy" in "happy synthesizer". charles: *roselia* slayed, ate, watered my crops, purified my heart, erased the evil, purged my mind, saved my world. mizuena sound good but i feel there is some missed potential. roki: ichika's growl was cool and all, but her voice is too soft for this song, and miku's tuning didn't help. *mocaran* takes this. rettou jottou: although rei's voice is too mature for this song, CHU² and her rap balanced it out. *raise a suilen* gave an excellent performance that brings out the badassery of bring it on, edm and all. on the other hand, the tuning for anhane's cover was... uh... buriki no dance: *raise a suilen* took the rapid fire aspect of the song and amped it up which i love love love. ruikasa's cover feels more fitting for the lyrics (which, what even are the lyrics?) though. asu no yozora shoukaihan: i would have loved ran's cover if it werent for the BAD mixing throughout. although *ichika* lacks the power ran has (which i think is needed here), shes captures the slightly bittersweet tone of the song better. also is it just me or was anhane a bit off-key? dramaturgy: look, sekai, whose idea was it to sing in that key? miku is singing unfathomably high. i like the balance between ran and kasumi's voices. however, i think i would give this song to *akitoya*, because they sound like they are challenging themselves, something i really like. renai saiban: kokoro has covered sil' vous president, but the tone of that song doesnt translate into here. *more more jump's* harmony was pretty good here. KING: ok this is a tough one. on one hand, roselia SLAYED so hard, while on the other, i prefer ruikasa's vibe. roselia sounds like it's coming at you hard and fast whereas ruikasa's cover sounds like an ominous, impending threat. but the mixing in sekai's cover is pretty bad so *roselia* wins this one. romeo and cinderella: i could understand how kasumi would sound out of breath here. besides *shizuairi* is iconic, and their voices have this beauty to them no one else can capture. roku chounen to ichiya monogatari: again, i find ichika's voice way too soft, and miku's consonant pronunciations are blurry. *roselia* not only has yukina singing all her heart out, but also ako going WILD and rinko having a wonderful keyboard arrangement. lost one's weeping: is this even a question? i find it rather sad, really. *afterglow's* cover is one of the most popular among ALL the bandori covers, for good reason; ran and all her power and desperation, and the band itself with irs hard rock team in all its might. as for leo/need... it was just bad. id even argue it's one of the worst covers in sekai. ichika and shiho are singing in different octaves which makes them clash, and they both sound bored at best, emotionless at worst. venom: although i like ran's power, *mizuena* not only bring about the same amount of energy, but also a twisted elegance that i find really charming. karakuri pierrot: aya actually did great here, but *more more jump* give a greater feeling of being stuck and constricted. yi er fanclub: although i find WxS's mv really cute and their harmony pleasant, *kokoro* sounds actually excited and eager and enthusiastic. goodbye sengen: i like the guitar in afterglow and kasumi's cover, but in general it sounds more sad, which i think is due to the flat notes. *WxS* sounds smug, like they actually achieved something and are feeling proud of it, and i like them for that. vampire: i dont like either cover tbh. kasumi sounds like she's struggling, while mmj sounds BORED. but i'll give this one to *mmj* because they have a slightly more mysterious feel to them. yoru ni kakeru: aya just sounded too happy. this easily goes to *sekai*, especially kanade's version. i think this is one of the songs that would have better been covered by morfonica, since mashiro's voice is cut out for melancholic songs, and rui's violin would be an interesting addition (ik ayasa did her own cover but it doesn't count) alien alien: why is there a love song about aliens? anyway kokoro sounds kinda... selfish? like she doesnt have anyone to sing to. so this goes to *emunene*. amanojaku: as usual, i like how *afterglow* spiced up the song with a lot of power. it sounds more exciting, but also with its sense of longing. leo/need sounded messy and a little boring. daybreak frontline: this song holds a special place in my heart. vivid bad squad is my favourite unit in pjsk, and i loved how they took turns in the verses, but the chorus sounded messy because the song doesnt have enough space for 5 people. *raise a suilen's* cover on the other hand is one of the community's most beloved, and was actually the thing that welcomed me into bandori. the instrumental is a lot more exciting and had more dynamics. i actually performed it once, which was a wonderful experience. RAS all the way. phony: one of the only afterglow vs nightcord covers where i think the former has a fighting chance. however, as always, *niigo* has both the power and sadness, so this goes to them. inochi ni kirawarete iru: *nightcord*. see above darling dance: i really like that this was kokoro's first REALLY dark song, and i think she did pretty well by flattening some notes to give it a heavier feel. and we musnt forget she has a band behind her, and if we look at this as a whole *hhw* thing, this cover really shines (thinking about misaki especially here). minoharu did great as well and they had potential, but they could probably have pushed more. shinkai shoujo: im sorry mmj but your cover just sounded BORING. shizuku and haruka were pretty good but airi's power and minori's meekness ruined it, and dont even mention miku's tuning (she sounded like she had a HUGE smile on her face). and as *morfonica's* first and only vocaloid cover, i think they should win this one. the violin was a wonderful addition as it mimicks the flows of water around the girl, and did i mention the BASS? i love it (quite biased though since i think morfonica is very underrated and nanami is best girl). shoujo rei: look mashiro i love you but *shizuharu* went SO SO HARD on this one i cant just not give it to them. it wasnt perfect but it's definitely kirakira dokidoki. odo: the chorus in *bandori's* one was very good and i think the instrumentals were wonderful. an and kohane lack the raw energy that the song calls for. one thing though, in the parts where the high notes get higher in sequence, yukina and rei sounded HORRIBLE; were they trying to be this bad? setsuna trip: minoairi's cover feels like youre dreaming about a setsuna trip, while *poppin'party's* actually feels like youre going out there and experiencing it. the instrumental is less messy than the original, but retains the exciting and chaotic nature of it, common bandori arrangement W. kasumi's vocals were one thing, can we talk about how GOOD everyone else did? otae really surpassed the high standard for guitar, rimi's bass was highlighted in the verses like an egg cracking open to see its golden yolk. my girl saaya probably broke her arms with those consistently energetic drums, and i stand by the fact that the keyboard is the strongest part of the song; arisa's glissando?? absolute eargasm i cant wait for the full version migikata no cho: an and kohane's cover sound like they have a big smile on their faces. *roselia's* cover feels like a desensitized, cold person singing and lamenting although no one will answer them. though if im being honest, i think morfonica would have done this cover way better (see their agehachou cover).
I agree with this sm, I think both games do a good job overall but also have points where they can be improved!! I think your list is really good as well, the only thing I disagree with is Odo bc I really disliked the bandori instrumentals and it just felt really messy to me. I do agree that the anhane version isn’t the most powerful but I still think they did a pretty decent job considering how hard it is to match the energy of the original. I’m definitely a bit biased tho bc I’m more into Pjsk than bandori nowdays lmao
Bandori are currently gonna adding 2 new band into the Franchise which Is Mygo!!!!! And Ave Mujica. Mygo vocalist is more like Mashiro who has Soft and Flexible voice but the band Music is more rock like Afterglow meanwhile Ave Mujica is more into Metal, is interesting how these two new band will be covering some of Vocaloid song in the future.
@@rench.212 mygo is coming into the game, but we aren't sure about ave mujica yet! though i do really like both bands. i love how the vocalist for mygo sounds, their songs feel like a mix of morfonica and popipa. ave mujica is an incredibly cool band as well though!
as a non bandori player and a pjsekai character, i can’t really decide which one’s better but they all sound good !!! also i realised that bandori tries to sound different than the original which is kinda cool because of originality but sometimes pjsekai sounds better than them.
@@artowardseternityy__oh my god you are one of my favorite pjsk players you are so good at singing and ur va is so funny i wish you were in more songs bro
Everybody seems to be doing it so I'll do it too. 1. Happy Synthesizer - Project Sekai (I honestly really like how they're all in harmony and it's really soothing to the ears) 2. Charles - Bandori (I love how the pjsk one goes from muffled to clear but the Bandori one really hits hard because of the vocals) 3. ROKI - Project Sekai (I really love Ran's voice but Ichika's growl is STUNNING) 4. BRING IT ON - Project Sekai (Layer's voice is so powerful but it justs covers the instrumental and you can still hear the electric beat in the pjsk one) 5. Buriki no Dance - Project Sekai (I feel like the Bandori one doesn't feel like Buriki no Dance and Len's voice really matches with the song) 6. Night Sky Patrol of Tomorrow - Bandori (I love Ichika but her voice is really too soft and Ran's voice always hits SO hard) 7. Dramaturgy - Project Sekai (It feels more like the original in the pjsk one because of Miku in the background) 8. Love Trial - Bandori (I feel like it sounds more clean in the Bandori one because there's only one person singing and I absolutely love Kokoro's voice) 9. KING - Bandori (I love the instrumental and Yukina's voice!! Also Rui and Tsukasa just sounds so silly singing this) 10. Romeo and Cinderella - Tie (They're both good and I cannot explain why) 11. Six Trillion Years and One Night - Project Sekai (Yukina's singing is really incredible but I feel like it's too much and Ichika's is just the right pitch and power) 12. Lost One's Weeping - Tie 13. Venom - Project Sekai (Mizuki's voice just fits this song so much) 14. Karakuri Pierrot - Project Sekai (Aya's voice is too cutesy for this song and the pjsk one REALLY sounds like they're in despair or sad which fits the song(no hate btw I absolutely love Aya!)) 15. 1, 2 Fanclub - Project Sekai (Emu and Nene's voice really resonates with this song but I honestly love Kokoro's voice too) 16. Goodbye Declaration - Project Sekai (I kinda feel like Ran's voice didn't fit with this song) 17. Vampire - Bandori (I don't dislike the pjsk one it's js that Kasumi just fits the song better idk why) 18. Into the Night - Project Sekai (It has more harmony to it which brings the song to life because it just sounds a lot better with more people) 19. Alien Alien - Project Sekai (Emu and Nene's voice really match up here) 20. Amanojaku - Bandori (YASS RAN SLAYY) 21. DAYBREAK FRONTLINE - Project Sekai (It's more fun to listen because of how relaxing the vocals are (I have actually played this song on both Bandori and Pjsk and I had a stroke)) 22. phony - Tie (I absolutely cannot choose) 23. Hated by Life Itself - Project Sekai (Ran sounds like she's gonna break apart but Kanade's just hits so different even though she has a soft voice it fits her so well and Kanade's cover just wants to make me cry because it resonates with Miku so much and I feel like Ran is overdoing it and the remix kind of ruins the song...) 24. Darling Dance - Bandori (Kokoro really fits this song and her voice is so nice!) 25. Shinkai Shoujo - Project Sekai (I like it more because it sounds more calming and the piano really hits hard) 26. Shoujo Rei - Project Sekai (KURIKAESU FURASSU BAKKU SEMI NO KOE NI DO TOWA KAERANU KIMI anyway I really love Haruka and Shizuku's voice mized together because they sound like they're gonna break and it makes me wanna cry too because they really implemented the true meaning of the song by the vocals and the Bandori one... ehhh...(Shoujo Rei is my fav song btw)) 27. Odo - Tie (I love both sm) 28. Setsuna Trip - Bandori (Kasumi's voice really hit different here it's so powerful yet so cute at the same time) 29. Butterfly on Your Right Shoulder - Bandori (The vocals is just so NICEEE!!) And that's it. It's just my opinion though and if yours is different, it's honestly okay! (Edited to make it more easy to read.)
The best place for my tiny bit of vent. I played Bang Dream, liked just about 2% of the songs, mostly by two of the groups. For Project Sekai I didn't move past the starting line after the tutorial. This video I clicked on only after seeing it had Karakuri Pierrot. None of other songs collected here were to my liking, regardless of whose was the cover. And for Karakuri Pierrot I only like the Pastel*Palletes version. Very interesting to see an argument of too cutesy of a voice. The trope is called something like "Casting by type". It's like saying a bass can't have a range, or a violin. Like you can't be sad with a blank look. Like you can't be still in control of your tears when it hurts more than anything. Like people translate the lyrics into Russian deciding that the singing person is female, not at all vindicated by the "boku" pronoun used.
I just wanted to say I think pjsekai phony is better! Just look at mafuyus cover it may sound bad at first but AAA it’s so good at the END and MEIKO adding in melody with the full group just makes it even more amazing
I swear to god. Ran, LAYER and Yukina genuienly have the most astounding voices. All of the VAs are super talented but Bandori will always have my heart, character and music wise
Personally I prefer Kanade's Hated by Life Itself cover, not just because of her voice but because of the impact this songs with its lyrics can give you if you understand Kanade's character, making it more emotional and deep. (I also play bandori but I don't really know if Ran has anything similar that I just mentioned, I don't really follow her character)
@@enananoThat's what I'm saying! I feel like BRING IT ON is a song that should be sang with a powerful and kind of deep voice. That's why I think it would've been better if AkiAn covered it, alongside Rin and Len. Akito and An complement each others voices really well and it wouldn't be bad if SEGA/ColorfulPallette will remake old covers!
Bandori - spices things up by using different instruments for the song along with strong vocals, sometimes too strong that it makes the song just plain rock even though it wasn't supposed to be rock in the first place. Also, Roselia is the best group in Bandori imo (reminds me of Bud Virgin Logic in SB69) Project Sekai - stays true to the original, sometimes sounds better than the original, sometimes they don't. Also, Nene best girl. This is my opinion, if you have nothing good to say as a reply you are free to ignore my comment. Anyway, nice comparison video. I never knew they had so many songs in common as I have only played Bandori for a short while and been playing Project Sekai JP since release. Fun fact: Ichika in Project Sekai is the main vocal of Bud Virgin Logic in SB69
I'm a project sekai player, so I'm very biased. However, there's something I've noticed that makes me really want to get into bandori, especially with the recent art style change they had. For one, with the music, I love how they seem to change the instrumental to turn it into a whole new song that (most likely) fits the very genre of their bands. The song and the message it has is the same, but they turn it into a different style, like a remix (basically what D4DJ does but in a more stylized manner.). Even so, the very reason I like prsk is because I am a very hardcore vocaloid fan, and I'm happy that prsk likes to stay true to the original song itself, considering prsk being a very tribute to the vocaloid fandom. I like prsk's songs because they give the originals justice, while I also like bandori's as they change it up into a whole new version with a different feel.
@@susannakervinen3979My problem with these songs from Bandori is they just don't keep the tone or message of the original songs. Plus with covers Colorful Stage you can hear something pretty similar to Bandori just takes awhile to unlock sadly.
@@hungerxhunger2548project sekai is definitely better then bandori , because it’s just clearer and not chaotic . But I just say if proseka let the VA‘s sing a bit free style it would’ve bin a bit better !
I feel like project sekai sticks with the style and feel of the original song but bandori sticks to the style of each group. For example, shoujo rei in the bandori version sounded entergetic and the card looked happy while the song is about s**cide. On the other hand, project sekai stayed with the meaning of the song, making it sound sadder and the card look more depressing (since it’s about s**cide).
it's an unfair comparison whenever Roselia is covering a song, especially Six Trillion Years T-T --as someone who has played both games but ended up sticking with pjsk
@@neronar_they are from the official UA-cam channel. Every now and then they post a video with a short Voice Drama + Cover, the segment is called vbs archives
as an ex-bandori player who later on changed to pjsk (bc i lost my bandori acc) all songs have their own style of music/vocals. example, charles, yukina vocals really is amazing and you could feel her emotions to the song. while as pjsk is more softer and sadder. theres good pjsk songs as well like Dramaturgy by eve. the vocals fit better to the original Eve song which makes it pleasant to hear while bandori music and vocals are more rock-ish to fit Afterglow. time to time i enjoy hearing to bandori's original songs as well
I don’t play bandori but I find it interesting that a lot of people are calling ichika’s voice soft. I would say she was one of the strongest voices in prosekai. Though I’m wondering what people mean by strength and power of voice. I’m a singer so I equate it with the ability to be clear and loud, which matter most when your reaching the edge of your range in either direction and belting. A good example of what I mean is against the currents singer.
Interesting how actual singers agree that Ichika's a good vocalist while non-singers say she's horrible and use old covers as examples... like that's the point. She was meant to sound amateurish in the beginning. Also, if you don't mind, who are your top five vocalists of project sekai?
@@chiika118 Tough pick. With just considering singing ability and how much I like their tone, akito, mizuki, ichika, mafuyu, ena(?) there’s too many people tied for fifth. My other considerations were all of WxS because they all have very good range, support(the ability to not sound strained) and emotion. And Toya because he has very good range and support and I really like his tone.(also has good emotion but less than WxS) With considering emotion though, tsukasa or emu have to replace Ena cause they have so much character in their singing. Which sometimes comes at the cost of blending with the group(mostly in older songs), sounding too shrill(emu), or lack of support
@@ViridianEnchantress I see, I also have Akito, Mizuki, Ichika and Ena in my top five! Shizuku too I think. She has a soft voice type but it's interesting how she keeps her timbre stable when doing challenging notes and not strain. For WxS, I really like Rui's and Nene's voices; it's hard for me to pick between them since they're pretty close. Touya has a really nice low register, if I remember correctly, he reached a D2 note in 'Beyond The Way'.
@@chiika118 I really like shizuku’s voice too!She could also be top 5 actually…. Ah choosing is hard. Rui and Nene are really good too, Emu and Tsukasa standout more to me because of the character in there singing but I think Rui and Nene have better support. All of WxS is pretty close for me. I honestly not sure which part you’re talking about but D2 is impressive! His higher register is really nice too. One of my favourite songs for him is Dawn and Fireflies(I’m sad we won’t get a full cover)
Fun fact: Butterfly On Your Right Shoulder has 2 different version. Roselia version is the Rin version or female’s perspective while the VBS archive (or original in the game) is the Len version or male’s perspective with an extra line midway (can be found in full version)
As someone who plays both bang dream and colorful stage on the English servers, I have to say I highly adore and appreciate the power the vocals and instrumentals of the songs from Bandori give off. Especially the songs from Roselia and Raise A Sullen
The two definitely have their own charms and their own differences to fit different music tastes. Personally I prefer PJSK mostly because I like the sound of the original Vocaloid songs, but I can totally see why Bandori covers are just as good and why some people prefer them!
Shoujo Rei is supposed to be a somber and soft song so that's what disappointed me with how Bandori interpreted their cover. If they did it differently I would've liked their cover too because I would've liked a Bandori cover of my favorite song but the cutesy voices don't do it for me
Yeah bandori covers feel like they are giving it their all and a lot more emotional in terms of the delivery, while pjsk covers are trying to imitate the original song as much as possible imo
@@loki2715Because they are , lmfao . Bandori is olde then Proseka and it’s just different from Proseka . Bandori is Rock fashioned , while Proseka has „Sekai‘s“ .
i kinda think proseka va's don't really put all of their energy tbh, like i think most of them can sing so much more powerful, but maybe due to them pitching their voices or maybe even character personalities, they sound pretty chill. i haven't played bandori, but omg, the vocals go crazy fr. i think both games' vas do great job, i like all (OR MOST) of the covers and they even inspired me to start learning how to sing :')
I think it comes down to a lot of factors: firstly, as you mentioned, their characters voices, the first person that comes to mind is Akina, her voice as Kohane is a little limited and only with newer songs she seems to have the freedom to use a deeper voice. Also, pjsk are mostly groups, not bands (with the exception of L/N) so their sound is more pop than rock, therefore the mixing of voices should be softer and it shouldn't apply to Leo/need but I think that they decided to leave their voices like that so the group wouldn't stick like a sore thumb. It also comes from the concepts of both games, while bandori are girl bands, pjsk is a world with performers who meet vocaloids, therefore bandori feels like seeing a band at a live house while pjsk feels like listening to a new release from an artist on Spotify. I think the processings and mixing done are also important, bandori vocals feel raw, pjsk feel processed, when seeing live performances of both games you can hear it, bandori doesn't really sound too different, but pjsk does they sound louder and more powerful specially niigo for example
Both covers are really good but one thing is, i like how to project sekai covers stay more true tp the originals, Like how in Hated by life itself the vocals in pjsekai are more soft like the original tuning
1. happy synthesizer - pjsekai 2. charles - pjsekai (by a tiny bit bc roselia slayed too) 3. roki - bandori, i don't like pjsekai's version 4. bring it on - bandori, i love anhane but i think we can all agree that pjsekai bring it on is a miss 5. buriki no dance - pjsekai but bandori goes hard as well 6. night sky patrol of tomorrow - pjsekai, idk i just don't hear the emotion in bandori's version, just yelling 7. dramaturgy - akitoya > bandori > ichika 8. love trial - pjsekai 9. king - bandori, ruikasa is a bit too mellow 10. romeo and cinderella - pjsekai 11. six trillion years and overnight story - bandori, imo ichika just isn't strong enough here 12. lost one's weeping - easy bandori, tho i never knew ichika and shiho's line before the chorus went so hard 13. venom - pjsekai, but i like bandori's too 14. karakuri pierrot - pjsekai 15. 1, 2 fanclub - pjsekai 16. goodbye sengen - bandori 17. vampire - bandori 18. into the night - pjsekai. all. the. way. 19. alien alien - pjsekai 20. amanojaku - bandori goes so hard 21. daybreak frontline - tie 22. phony - bandori...by like a small margin bc i love nightcord 23. hated by life - pjsekai, kanade's cover is super unique and fits her character so well like how could i not 24. darling dance - pjsekai 25. shinkai shoujo - bandori 26. shoujorei - pjsekai, harushizu's vocals are so ethereal here, literally ascend me to another plane 27. odo - pjsekai, but bandori also slayed 28. setsuna trip - not familiar with this song either way so tie 29. butterfly on your right shoulder - pjsekai slayed too hard on this one, but roselia did amazing as well
As it stands, I think I usually end up preferring Sekai covers because of how faithful they are to the originals since I'm a vocaloid fan at heart, there are def some exceptions like Bandori's Noushou Sakaretsu Girl cover tho
i think the thing about the early project sekai covers that make them sound so weird is that it seemed like the game didnt know how to balance the real voices with the vocaloids yet, so in a lot of covers the vocaloid blends in with the real voices and kinda makes it sound more shallow and gets rid of the vocal quality. i think project sekai has improved at this, but it makes some of the early covers hard to listen to. but overall, i like how voices blend together and the less harsh vocals are more my jam. i think each characters very unique voice adds a lot to the covers and i think its really nice. on the flip side, due to personal preference i dont really like the bandori covers mostly because of how they sing. its not bad at all, but just personally i dont vibe with the kind of tone and technique they use in their covers. however, i think the covers are very unique, theres a lot of variation to them and they are very rich sounding which i enjoy. i tried to be not too biased in that little analysis and although im a pjsk fan im not here to hate on bandori i think the songs are good theyre just not my personal preference
agree w you about the bandori covers. sometimes i think their much stronger vocals go really hard in certain songs, often where pjsekai falls short (lost one's weeping, six trillion years, roki, etc) but for some of the songs that use not overpowering/softer vocals (into the night, karakuri pierrot, shoujorei) i prefer pjsekai covers.
Istg project sekai covers were so bad at the start to the point where i started playing them on mute 💀- AND ESPECIALLY ROKI . Miku's awful tuning and the bad mixing really ruined that cover .. if it was an Ichika solo cover i know for sure it would've been so good .. same goes to lost one's weeping 😭 And The bandori part was so accurate istg , it's sometimes very hard to listen to bandori covers . especially hated by life itself wich was supposed to be a much more calming song but for some reason afterglow's cover really ruined it ..
idk how to put it simply, but bandori feels like they colorized the cover song with their own color while proseka still feels the same as original does. Still, proseka feels like a symphony when covering a song while bandori on the other hand feels like a duet
i just will forever that bandori does their own instrumentals and these are REAL people with real instruments and real performances like agshhh. no hate to pjsekai whatsoever but bandori will always have a place in my heart
I came into this with clear favorites, but MAN I have to say, I don’t know if I actually do anymore. The only thing I like ~slightly~ better with some of these is that BanG Dream actually covers the songs and changes the key, instrumentals, and even some vocal inflections. Proseka changes the key sometimes, but mostly stays true to the original. It’s so good either way!!!
I’m a firm believer that some of the bandori covers are better than even their originals…. Charles especially, but I also feel this way about goodbye declaration and dramaturgy
Both Bandori’s and Psekai’s covers are both wonderful in their own ways. Bandori’s takes a song and makes it their very own, while Psekai is more faithful to the original, mostly using the same instrumental of the original song. (I saw other doing this list thing and I wanna do it too. No hate to any of the groups.) 1. Psekai - I just feel like the multiple vocals brought more life to the song. If it were just one singing it would be a tie. 2. Bandori - Yukina’s voice is just so powerful and gorgeous and elegant oh my goodness. 3. Bandori - not even a completion. Bandori’s sounds more fun and energetic; would definitely dance to it. Plus MocaRan. 4. Bandori - RAS just got the song, made it their own, and did it justice. Love it. 5. Psekai - I just like psekai’s more. No comment. 6. Tie - I just can’t choose. They’re both so freaking beautiful in their own way. 7. Psekai - I feel like their versions does the song more justice. 8. Psekai - Their version is so good. Plus it doesn’t seem like a song Kokoro would sing… 9. Bandori - THE INSTRUMENTAL GOES HARD FOR THIS ONE YUKINA AND LISA’S BASS SLAYED 10. Bandori - It would tie; it’s just that Kasumi’s voice got that POWER. 11. Bandori - I just feel like Bandori’s version just got the rawness and power Psekai’s version doesn’t 12. Bandori - I just feel like the harmony for Psekai’s doesn’t work that much. Slaps tho, but I have to give it to Bandori. 13. Tie. I love them both so much I can’t choose. 14. Psekai - Does the song justice. 15. Tie - They’re both alright; not the biggest fan of the song, but it’s good. 16. Psekai - It has a nice bittersweet touch to it, and I like it. 17. Psekai - I just like it better. 18. Tie - I can’t. I really can’t choose which one’s better. They’re both glorious in their own way. 19. Bandori - only by a small margin. 20. Pseaki - THE FEELS 21. Bandori - I just like LAYER’s voice in this better. 22. Tie - Both are so amazing I really can’t. 23. Tie. Bandori’s feels as if Ran is so done with it so she’s screaming (in a good way). Psekai’s feels as if they’re so done with it, they don’t has any breath left (in a good way). Both approach the sing in different ways so it’s difficult to pick which one. 24. Bandori - No comment really. I just feel like Kokoro’s voice makes the sing more energetic, while PSekai’ more quiet-ish. 25. Bandori - RUI ON THE VIOLIN ADDS SO MUCH. Plus I feel like Psekai’s is a bit higher for this that takes away from the sing. 26. Bandori - only by a small margin 27. Psekai - I feel like Bandori’s new instrumental kinda takes away from the sing. Just me. 28. Bandori - I love bandori’s cover SO FREAKING MUCH KASUMI’S VOICE IS SO CUTE YET SO POWERFUL 29. Psekai - The song doesn’t really fit Yukina?? Really fits VBS tho. Bandori - 13 (not counting ties) Psekai - 10 (not counting ties)
I played bandori way before pjsekai came out, and I have to give a point to bandori for the instrumentals and the powerful vocals. That said, I don't mean to throw shade onto pjsekai! (as I absolutely ADORE both franchises) Pjsekai also has its own charm, it's more polished I think? They're also trying to keep the feel of the original, which I respect! Basically, both are great in their own ways! Props the VA's for their great work! 💖💖💖
tbh the only reason i play prsk is cuz it has male vocalists and all the vocaloids (vocaloids have been a huge part of my childhood so obviously the game which has them would be the one i prefer) also cuz im tired of "all waifu" gacha games so i stopped playing bandori after a few days, but dem some of the bandori covers sound amazing and i love the deep voices some of the characters have.
@@angelzladderA good rythem game that I recommend playing is D4DJ! It has a few cards that could be seen as fan service but it's only with their adult units, also has canon lesbians
I like the project Sekai more since the voice sounds more clear to me and not as rough (like kinda forced but not? Though project Sekai has the same problem with some songs.), and I like how project Sekai has more songs with more than one or two people/person since I like harmony and makes it sound more lovely. And I like how they keep the same beat from the original songs since it doesn’t feel more different than the original. Though I’m not saying Bandori is bad it is still good, there are some covers I like more than project Sekai. Again this is just my opinion. (I played both games, I played Bandori three years but I switched to project Sekai when I started playing it more and needed storage. I started playing project Sekai when it was published for English AppStore.)
To me a few of the bandori ones felt a little rough around the edges (like I think they went flat on a few harder notes more often, happens with sekai too sometimes tho), but there were some I preferred too! The differences are bigger than I had realized in the styles for sure.
@@wooogie672maybe they don’t sound boring as duck like project sekai voice actors and bandori singers don’t sound like they’re bored and actually put emotion into their songs 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@epic73011 idk how many covers you’ve listened to to come to the conclusion that pjsk voice actors don’t put emotion into their performances…. loud and yelling ≠ expressing emotion
11:02 OMG I DIDN'T KNOW BANDORI MADE A COLLAB WITH KURO-CHAN OMG as someone who only plays global, this was news to me and now I can't wait for that song to drop in global 🤲🏼😭
19-10 THERE WAS SO MANY CLOSE CALLS I am a biased bandori player, I really enjoy the vocals and creative instruments. I wish they had other characters sing more, and I also really liked some pjsk covers, like how smooth it felt (IDK HOW TO EXPLAIN) the odo one was hard to decide, I enjoyed the bandori cover with the use of drums and guitar and diverse vocals, but the pjsk sounded really satisfying, ultimately everything is based on preference and experience ‼️
Bandori for me. I love ProSeka but most of the covers sound like instrumentals with added on vocals. one thing about Bandori that makes it noticeably superior for me is the rearrangement that makes each song sound like an original. They've both done amazing work but Bandori nailed almost every cover they've made so far.
As a bandori and pjsekai player, I mostly like Bandori covers more than pjsekai probably bc I like intense songs and some of Yukina, Ran and LAYER covers are powerful and intense too so I love that very much. Pjsekai is good too but its not rlly my type and Im actually a vocaloid fans so I mostly use vocaloid covers than sekai cover.
while i personally enjoy bandoris covers more, i dont think theres really a need to compare the two since theyre both trying to do very different things with their covers. both have their pros and are good without the two fandoms needing to fight over which is better (even though thats mostly just the tiktokers who feel the need to put down eachother)
They’re all so good! I think that Bandori VAs can really go all out on their vocals but pjsekai vocals are a little softer so u can still hear the virtual singers. Also cos pjsekai has male singers as well. So pjsekai is really close to the original and bandori is kinda like a broadway rendition, it’s made to be heard through large numbers I think:)
бандори мой дом. безумно люблю их каверы и не только. но и у секая многое нравится (хоть я в него и не играю, но многие каверы сохраняю себе отдельно в плейлист)
well im being biased because i love akito but i really like how pjsk has more vocalists it just makes the game feel like home yk plus i really like the artstyle
pjsk has more vocalists because it's more so like units (other than leoni as it's a band) in where everyone sints together, while bandori are bands (suggested by the name) so they have a set vocalist, meaning the vocalist will obviously get more lines and songs over the other members
Prosekas covers are in my personal opinion better or just more that I like them more. Bandori has vocals that kind of overpowers the music to where the voices are the focus. In proseka however both the vocals and music are of equal focus and sound a lot clearer together. It’s not a bad thing either way just my personal preference by ear 😭. Also I feel like proseka covers have more versatility in the voices and production (some don’t I’d say but yk) and I mean that in the way that you can tell distinctively the difference of the characters singing in one song and the ranges in which they sing changes with the song too. Again Bandori’s covers aren’t bad I like them too just by my personal preference I like project sekais more, they’re more listenable to me (for the most part I don’t like some covers) 👍 Edit: ig I’m just saying I like that prosekas sound closer to the original and I do know that bandori does their own instrumentals which some prefer just not me tho. Do attack me also pls 🥲
To be honest, I like bandori more. I’m not trying to be biased now, but it is mostly better. They add some spices to the covers and the Roselia ones are the best. I love how they turn songs into more “rock” types. Maybe I am biased idk, I played project sekai to compare loved bandori songs more
It really is, I'm a pjsk only player and I prefer bandori covers more too mainly because they are a lot more emotional and have their own style in covering the song. Not to mention, the vocal skills are also evidently better in some covers
After listening to all songs in full, here is which covers I prefer (or think both are good): Happy Synthesizer - Bandori Charles - Proseka Roki - Both Bring it on - Bandori Buriki no dance - Proseka Night sky - Both Dramaturgy - Bandori Love trial - Bandori King - Bandori Romeo and Cinderella - Proseka Rokuchounen - Bandori Lost one's weeping - Bandori Venom - Proseka Karakuri Pierrot - Both 1, 2 Fanclub - Proseka Goodbye Sengen - Proseka Vampire - Both Yoru ni kakeru - Both Alien Alien - Proseka Amanojaku - Both Daybreak frontline - Bandori Phony - Proseka Hated by life - Proseka Darling dance - Both Shinkai Shoujo - Proseka Shoujo rei - Both Odo - Bandori Setsuna Trip - Bandori Butterfly on your right shoulder - Both
God they both sound amazing. Odo especially im having such a hard time deciding which i like more, because RAISE A SUILEN is my favorite band of Bandori and LAYER and Yukina absolutely CRUSH it, but god Vivid BAD SQUAD's version is just amazing (especially the woahs lol). Man, I love both Bandori and PJSK sm
Nothing will ever beat roselia's spin on covers. The way Yukina carries a song will always be breathtaking. Her voice on anything is literally a sure sign that a song will be good. As someone who's now switched to pjsk (I just prefer the interface and the way the game is played in general), I sometimes go back to may bandori acc just to play roselia songs XD
My favourites: Happy Synthesizer- bandori(The proseka cover is very dry-) Charles- this is hard, but proseka wins Roki- Bandori(I don't like Miku's voice in the proseka version, but Ichika sounds good) Bring it on- proseka(The proseka cover isn't the best thing in the world, but I still prefer it more than the Bandori version) Buriki no dance- Both Night Sky patrol of tomorrow- L/N and bandori(i hate the an and kohane ver. sorry-) Dramaturgy- BANDORI!!!! (BANDORI'S VERSION IS SO-- 🛐. But I also really love Akito and Toya's version too) Love trial: idk- KING- Proseka Romeo and Cinderella- Bandori(Bandori ver.>>>>> Proseka ver.) Sixtrilion years- idk Lost one's weeping- bandori Venon- proseka(Mizuki voice🛐) Kakuri pierrot- proseka(I only like it because of Haruka's voice) 1, 2 fanclub- proseka Goodbye declaration- bandori Vampire- prosekai Yoru ni Kakeru- prosekai Alien, Alien- proseka(I'm not a big fan of kokoro's voice sorry) Amanojaku- Bandori(I can see the effort that Ran's voice actor put into this cover...) Daybreak frontline- BANDORIBANDORIBANDORI (It's the only version of Frontline daybreak that I genuinely like) Phony- bandori (I'm not a big fan of the song in general, but I admit that Bandori's version is better) Hated by life itself- Proseka(This version is so good that it was the first Cover to get a full alt in the game) Darling Dance- Bandori(Pitch) Deep sea girl- Prosekai(Miku, Minori and Airi, GO AWAY AND LET HARUKA AND SHIZUKU SING) Shoujo Rei- Both are very good Odo- BAN-DO-RI(WOAH🗣️💯‼️🔥🔥🔥) Setsuna Trip- Both are good, but I prefer the proseka one(And the April Fools version is a banger) Butterfly- both

SAME BRO
We gotta agree that bandori got the powerful vocals while pjsk has covers that sound like the og song
Yes I think Bandori's vocalists have stronger voices to pair with their instrumentals, while Pjsk specializes in melody, they make more high and soft notes
@@jaehahai totally agree with that
@@jaehahaagreed. Though kinda disappointing for VBS since they’re the “powerful vocal street singers” and stuff. I wish they were a bit more like Bandori vocalists.
Yeah, Proseka is more covers without much arrangement paired to the group which fits the song most (in most cases, or just Leo/Need for no reason lol), while Bandori always arranges them quite a lot to fit to the singing band's theme and singers. tbh I dont have a general preference, love both styles and games to the moon and back.
tl;dr: if you want "faithful" covers go proseka, if you love more freely arranged ones go bandori.
The problem of Puroseka
They still use Miku and other gangs
There's really only 3 main difference between the two that really change them for me. One bandori makes custom instrumentals while proseka doesn't. Two early on proseka had difficulties mixing character voices together and character and vocaloid voices together though thats mostly solved now. And lastly in almost all bandori covers theres only one vocalist unless its a special song, all mrmbers join in for a word or two, or its RAS with chuu2.
i dont mind the line distribution though. in project sekai, theyre meant to resemble units where many members song and dont play instruments. in bandori, every band is meant to resemble actual rock bands, with different styles. kasumi, ran, yukina, etc (and ichika) get all the lines because theyre the lead singers. its just the nature of the style
proseka also changes the composition of instrumentals, most aren't that noticeable when you listen to it for the first time. proseka's covers tried to be as close to the og songs unlike bandori

@@nilouflowers L opinion but go on
@@nilouflowers k
this feels like "do you prefer loud vocals or clean composition"
Frr
The reason why Bandori’s vocals are more loud is because the groups are based on real units and the singers are used to/sing more naturally live so they have a much more powerful voice.
This is notable when you listen to pjsk live performances. They sound far better in the studio than live performances
@@ElectricOrange absolutely FACTS. Roselia, RAS, Morfonica, etc all sound incredible in concert. I've heard Roselia live twice and RAS live once - they both blew me away completely. Don't get me wrong, I love strong studio vocals, but the live concert experience for bandori is PEAK
@@goldy496 yeah exactly too, it bothers me when ppl just say “Bandori is loud” because it’s made for live concerts Roselia is INSANE
as a pjsk player who has dipped into bandori a few times, never fully dipping, two things I’ve absolutely ADORED about bandori is how they put a spin on things, and their artstyle. The fact that all the bands sound different to the originals sparks so much more, along with the different vocals. Still recognizable, but they achieve more in pulling my heart.
idc what anyone say bring it on RAS version will always be 🔛🔝
FR
omm
FINALLY SOMEONE SPEAKIN FACTS
len & rin is the og so
@@qve.r imo ras version is better still
As a Sekai player, the biggest problem with the covers is that it seems like the VAs have to sing in such a way that they don’t totally overpower the Vocaloids. Even then, the Vocaloids are poorly tuned and end up sounding like awkward backing vocals. The covers without the Vocaloids are really good, like Dramaturgy and Venom.
For Bandori, their covers get custom instrumentals that really complement the vocals. It also sounds very good.
i agree. while vocaloid + human sound like a good idea on paper, it sounds kinda weird and somehow makes the vocaloids sound worse.
fr like theres only like 2 proseka songs with well tuned vocaloids… I really like buying covers lol
@@ninthee7113 Which ones are those?
@@zorapianist theres uhh identity and idrk man
@@ninthee7113im guessing hated by life itself? Miku sounds good in that song.
I'm pretty obsessed with Yukina singing charles. Like honestly, she's got power in her voice
I think Kanade did it better at Hated by life itself its just more emotional and fits Kanade so much and her soft voice also fits the song as well
a few things i would like to point out:
-a vast majority of bandori's vocaloid covers are done by afterglow, whose vocalist has an infamously powerful and rather husky voice. especially when compared to project sekai's singers (especially ichika), ran has a lot of energy with her voice, and the juxtaposition can be pretty off-putting.
-often, bandori's vocalists fall strictly into either the "powerful" or "cutesy" categories. the exception to this is usually mashiro, but morfonica had covered a grand total of 1 vocaloid song (which i think is quite a pity, them having a violin and all but i digress), and the only other vocaloid song she sings in is shared with kasumi. i personally think mashiro's voice is very flexible, and bandori not using her often makes their covers in general fall off a bit more than sekai.
-project sekai's singers tend to be a lot more reserved than bandori's. coupled with poor mixing especially in the older covers, this may sway the otherwise energetic/desperate nature of some songs *cough* lost one's weeping *cough*
-because a lot of sekai's covers feature all 4 unit members singing, sometimes alongside a vocaloid, their voices are prone to muddling each other up and result in a messy cover. i think the most prominent example of this is daybreak frontline, which in the first place calls for at most 2 singers.
-sekai's conservative nature can sometimes hold back the potential of their singers, especially compared to bandori which takes a lot of liberty in their arrangements. but bandori also tends to overdo a lot of instrumentals at the same time.
-sekai, by nature, places more focus on vocals and the lyrics of a song, whearas bandori had a whole band behind each cover. because of this, bandori places more emphasis on the instrumentals, and i think the vocalists should not be the everyone's main focus of the covers. the bass in setsuna trip, for example, goes SO HARD.
bang dream and project sekai are ultimately vastly different franchises, meant for different target audiences. they just kinda ended up on the sane path. and i think it's pretty interesting to see their similarities and differences.
edit: since i have written this, Pastel Palettes and Pareo have covered wakusei loop and this is probably the first cover they made without a main vocalist! also MORFONICA COVERED QUEEN AND IM SO HAPPY
anyway here are my ratings, from a bandori main (total: bandori 16 pjsk 13):
happy synthesizer: they sound pretty close to me, but *ayachisa* really put the "happy" in "happy synthesizer".
charles: *roselia* slayed, ate, watered my crops, purified my heart, erased the evil, purged my mind, saved my world. mizuena sound good but i feel there is some missed potential.
roki: ichika's growl was cool and all, but her voice is too soft for this song, and miku's tuning didn't help. *mocaran* takes this.
rettou jottou: although rei's voice is too mature for this song, CHU² and her rap balanced it out. *raise a suilen* gave an excellent performance that brings out the badassery of bring it on, edm and all. on the other hand, the tuning for anhane's cover was... uh...
buriki no dance: *raise a suilen* took the rapid fire aspect of the song and amped it up which i love love love. ruikasa's cover feels more fitting for the lyrics (which, what even are the lyrics?) though.
asu no yozora shoukaihan: i would have loved ran's cover if it werent for the BAD mixing throughout. although *ichika* lacks the power ran has (which i think is needed here), shes captures the slightly bittersweet tone of the song better. also is it just me or was anhane a bit off-key?
dramaturgy: look, sekai, whose idea was it to sing in that key? miku is singing unfathomably high. i like the balance between ran and kasumi's voices. however, i think i would give this song to *akitoya*, because they sound like they are challenging themselves, something i really like.
renai saiban: kokoro has covered sil' vous president, but the tone of that song doesnt translate into here. *more more jump's* harmony was pretty good here.
KING: ok this is a tough one. on one hand, roselia SLAYED so hard, while on the other, i prefer ruikasa's vibe. roselia sounds like it's coming at you hard and fast whereas ruikasa's cover sounds like an ominous, impending threat. but the mixing in sekai's cover is pretty bad so *roselia* wins this one.
romeo and cinderella: i could understand how kasumi would sound out of breath here. besides *shizuairi* is iconic, and their voices have this beauty to them no one else can capture.
roku chounen to ichiya monogatari: again, i find ichika's voice way too soft, and miku's consonant pronunciations are blurry. *roselia* not only has yukina singing all her heart out, but also ako going WILD and rinko having a wonderful keyboard arrangement.
lost one's weeping: is this even a question? i find it rather sad, really. *afterglow's* cover is one of the most popular among ALL the bandori covers, for good reason; ran and all her power and desperation, and the band itself with irs hard rock team in all its might. as for leo/need... it was just bad. id even argue it's one of the worst covers in sekai. ichika and shiho are singing in different octaves which makes them clash, and they both sound bored at best, emotionless at worst.
venom: although i like ran's power, *mizuena* not only bring about the same amount of energy, but also a twisted elegance that i find really charming.
karakuri pierrot: aya actually did great here, but *more more jump* give a greater feeling of being stuck and constricted.
yi er fanclub: although i find WxS's mv really cute and their harmony pleasant, *kokoro* sounds actually excited and eager and enthusiastic.
goodbye sengen: i like the guitar in afterglow and kasumi's cover, but in general it sounds more sad, which i think is due to the flat notes. *WxS* sounds smug, like they actually achieved something and are feeling proud of it, and i like them for that.
vampire: i dont like either cover tbh. kasumi sounds like she's struggling, while mmj sounds BORED. but i'll give this one to *mmj* because they have a slightly more mysterious feel to them.
yoru ni kakeru: aya just sounded too happy. this easily goes to *sekai*, especially kanade's version. i think this is one of the songs that would have better been covered by morfonica, since mashiro's voice is cut out for melancholic songs, and rui's violin would be an interesting addition (ik ayasa did her own cover but it doesn't count)
alien alien: why is there a love song about aliens? anyway kokoro sounds kinda... selfish? like she doesnt have anyone to sing to. so this goes to *emunene*.
amanojaku: as usual, i like how *afterglow* spiced up the song with a lot of power. it sounds more exciting, but also with its sense of longing. leo/need sounded messy and a little boring.
daybreak frontline: this song holds a special place in my heart. vivid bad squad is my favourite unit in pjsk, and i loved how they took turns in the verses, but the chorus sounded messy because the song doesnt have enough space for 5 people. *raise a suilen's* cover on the other hand is one of the community's most beloved, and was actually the thing that welcomed me into bandori. the instrumental is a lot more exciting and had more dynamics. i actually performed it once, which was a wonderful experience. RAS all the way.
phony: one of the only afterglow vs nightcord covers where i think the former has a fighting chance. however, as always, *niigo* has both the power and sadness, so this goes to them.
inochi ni kirawarete iru: *nightcord*. see above
darling dance: i really like that this was kokoro's first REALLY dark song, and i think she did pretty well by flattening some notes to give it a heavier feel. and we musnt forget she has a band behind her, and if we look at this as a whole *hhw* thing, this cover really shines (thinking about misaki especially here). minoharu did great as well and they had potential, but they could probably have pushed more.
shinkai shoujo: im sorry mmj but your cover just sounded BORING. shizuku and haruka were pretty good but airi's power and minori's meekness ruined it, and dont even mention miku's tuning (she sounded like she had a HUGE smile on her face). and as *morfonica's* first and only vocaloid cover, i think they should win this one. the violin was a wonderful addition as it mimicks the flows of water around the girl, and did i mention the BASS? i love it (quite biased though since i think morfonica is very underrated and nanami is best girl).
shoujo rei: look mashiro i love you but *shizuharu* went SO SO HARD on this one i cant just not give it to them. it wasnt perfect but it's definitely kirakira dokidoki.
odo: the chorus in *bandori's* one was very good and i think the instrumentals were wonderful. an and kohane lack the raw energy that the song calls for. one thing though, in the parts where the high notes get higher in sequence, yukina and rei sounded HORRIBLE; were they trying to be this bad?
setsuna trip: minoairi's cover feels like youre dreaming about a setsuna trip, while *poppin'party's* actually feels like youre going out there and experiencing it. the instrumental is less messy than the original, but retains the exciting and chaotic nature of it, common bandori arrangement W. kasumi's vocals were one thing, can we talk about how GOOD everyone else did? otae really surpassed the high standard for guitar, rimi's bass was highlighted in the verses like an egg cracking open to see its golden yolk. my girl saaya probably broke her arms with those consistently energetic drums, and i stand by the fact that the keyboard is the strongest part of the song; arisa's glissando?? absolute eargasm i cant wait for the full version
migikata no cho: an and kohane's cover sound like they have a big smile on their faces. *roselia's* cover feels like a desensitized, cold person singing and lamenting although no one will answer them. though if im being honest, i think morfonica would have done this cover way better (see their agehachou cover).
I agree with this sm, I think both games do a good job overall but also have points where they can be improved!! I think your list is really good as well, the only thing I disagree with is Odo bc I really disliked the bandori instrumentals and it just felt really messy to me. I do agree that the anhane version isn’t the most powerful but I still think they did a pretty decent job considering how hard it is to match the energy of the original. I’m definitely a bit biased tho bc I’m more into Pjsk than bandori nowdays lmao
REAL!! BANDORIS COVER OF SETSUNA TRIP GOES SO HARD
Bandori are currently gonna adding 2 new band into the Franchise which Is Mygo!!!!! And Ave Mujica.
Mygo vocalist is more like Mashiro who has Soft and Flexible voice but the band Music is more rock like Afterglow meanwhile Ave Mujica is more into Metal, is interesting how these two new band will be covering some of Vocaloid song in the future.
@@rench.212 mygo is coming into the game, but we aren't sure about ave mujica yet! though i do really like both bands. i love how the vocalist for mygo sounds, their songs feel like a mix of morfonica and popipa. ave mujica is an incredibly cool band as well though!
as a non bandori player and a pjsekai character, i can’t really decide which one’s better but they all sound good !!! also i realised that bandori tries to sound different than the original which is kinda cool because of originality but sometimes pjsekai sounds better than them.
I MEANT PLAYER

Everybody seems to be doing it so I'll do it too.
1. Happy Synthesizer - Project Sekai (I honestly really like how they're all in harmony and it's really soothing to the ears)
2. Charles - Bandori (I love how the pjsk one goes from muffled to clear but the Bandori one really hits hard because of the vocals)
3. ROKI - Project Sekai (I really love Ran's voice but Ichika's growl is STUNNING)
4. BRING IT ON - Project Sekai (Layer's voice is so powerful but it justs covers the instrumental and you can still hear the electric beat in the pjsk one)
5. Buriki no Dance - Project Sekai (I feel like the Bandori one doesn't feel like Buriki no Dance and Len's voice really matches with the song)
6. Night Sky Patrol of Tomorrow - Bandori (I love Ichika but her voice is really too soft and Ran's voice always hits SO hard)
7. Dramaturgy - Project Sekai (It feels more like the original in the pjsk one because of Miku in the background)
8. Love Trial - Bandori (I feel like it sounds more clean in the Bandori one because there's only one person singing and I absolutely love Kokoro's voice)
9. KING - Bandori (I love the instrumental and Yukina's voice!! Also Rui and Tsukasa just sounds so silly singing this)
10. Romeo and Cinderella - Tie (They're both good and I cannot explain why)
11. Six Trillion Years and One Night - Project Sekai (Yukina's singing is really incredible but I feel like it's too much and Ichika's is just the right pitch and power)
12. Lost One's Weeping - Tie
13. Venom - Project Sekai (Mizuki's voice just fits this song so much)
14. Karakuri Pierrot - Project Sekai (Aya's voice is too cutesy for this song and the pjsk one REALLY sounds like they're in despair or sad which fits the song(no hate btw I absolutely love Aya!))
15. 1, 2 Fanclub - Project Sekai (Emu and Nene's voice really resonates with this song but I honestly love Kokoro's voice too)
16. Goodbye Declaration - Project Sekai (I kinda feel like Ran's voice didn't fit with this song)
17. Vampire - Bandori (I don't dislike the pjsk one it's js that Kasumi just fits the song better idk why)
18. Into the Night - Project Sekai (It has more harmony to it which brings the song to life because it just sounds a lot better with more people)
19. Alien Alien - Project Sekai (Emu and Nene's voice really match up here)
20. Amanojaku - Bandori (YASS RAN SLAYY)
21. DAYBREAK FRONTLINE - Project Sekai (It's more fun to listen because of how relaxing the vocals are (I have actually played this song on both Bandori and Pjsk and I had a stroke))
22. phony - Tie (I absolutely cannot choose)
23. Hated by Life Itself - Project Sekai (Ran sounds like she's gonna break apart but Kanade's just hits so different even though she has a soft voice it fits her so well and Kanade's cover just wants to make me cry because it resonates with Miku so much and I feel like Ran is overdoing it and the remix kind of ruins the song...)
24. Darling Dance - Bandori (Kokoro really fits this song and her voice is so nice!)
25. Shinkai Shoujo - Project Sekai (I like it more because it sounds more calming and the piano really hits hard)
26. Shoujo Rei - Project Sekai (KURIKAESU FURASSU BAKKU SEMI NO KOE NI DO TOWA KAERANU KIMI anyway I really love Haruka and Shizuku's voice mized together because they sound like they're gonna break and it makes me wanna cry too because they really implemented the true meaning of the song by the vocals and the Bandori one... ehhh...(Shoujo Rei is my fav song btw))
27. Odo - Tie (I love both sm)
28. Setsuna Trip - Bandori (Kasumi's voice really hit different here it's so powerful yet so cute at the same time)
29. Butterfly on Your Right Shoulder - Bandori (The vocals is just so NICEEE!!)
And that's it. It's just my opinion though and if yours is different, it's honestly okay! (Edited to make it more easy to read.)
The best place for my tiny bit of vent. I played Bang Dream, liked just about 2% of the songs, mostly by two of the groups. For Project Sekai I didn't move past the starting line after the tutorial. This video I clicked on only after seeing it had Karakuri Pierrot. None of other songs collected here were to my liking, regardless of whose was the cover. And for Karakuri Pierrot I only like the Pastel*Palletes version.
Very interesting to see an argument of too cutesy of a voice. The trope is called something like "Casting by type". It's like saying a bass can't have a range, or a violin. Like you can't be sad with a blank look. Like you can't be still in control of your tears when it hurts more than anything. Like people translate the lyrics into Russian deciding that the singing person is female, not at all vindicated by the "boku" pronoun used.
I just wanted to say I think pjsekai phony is better! Just look at mafuyus cover it may sound bad at first but AAA it’s so good at the END and MEIKO adding in melody with the full group just makes it even more amazing
Bandori has two shojorei cover now
Roselia's Charles cover just hits different, I can't explain it
Fr
I swear to god. Ran, LAYER and Yukina genuienly have the most astounding voices. All of the VAs are super talented but Bandori will always have my heart, character and music wise
layer gives goosebumps every time
Same.
right???
I am mainly a pjsekai person but Bandori is a literal vocal powerhouse I love them.
im a sucker for Yukina’s and LAYER’s vocals, they never miss
Not for Kyouran Hey Kids!! And Voracity, it was absolutely miss by me
Yuuta Aoi
YUKINA AND LAYER SOLO ISTG

Have yall listened to Doten? I wish a full version of the cover was available because their vocals were so good 😭😭
Personally I prefer Kanade's Hated by Life Itself cover, not just because of her voice but because of the impact this songs with its lyrics can give you if you understand Kanade's character, making it more emotional and deep.
(I also play bandori but I don't really know if Ran has anything similar that I just mentioned, I don't really follow her character)
yess its such a great cover, one of my favorites in the game. i love kanades vocal style so much
bring it on cant even be compared between the two games, Raise a Suillen does it so incredibly
SO REAL
Real
Exactly. The SEKAI cover is just .. iffy.
@@enananoThat's what I'm saying! I feel like BRING IT ON is a song that should be sang with a powerful and kind of deep voice. That's why I think it would've been better if AkiAn covered it, alongside Rin and Len. Akito and An complement each others voices really well and it wouldn't be bad if SEGA/ColorfulPallette will remake old covers!
as a pjsk enthusiast OMG RAISE A SUILLEN SOUNDS SO GOOD…?
I personally like that PJSK is advertised as more cover bands/groups for Vocaloid songs. Bandori clearly does their own thing when they do covers.
after reading some of the comments i must be the minority because i actually like pjsk version of roki. like i dont hear anything wrong with it 💀
same i actually really like the pjsk version of roki, people dislike it probably because of miku 😭
@@vyr4nia fair enough at that point 😭
@@vyr4nia i dislike the bandori version because of moca 😭
@@kisarahanone5697yeah i know moca’s voice overpowers the other members and i just cant hear anyone else but her
AND ICHIKA’S GROWL AAAA
Bandori
- spices things up by using different instruments for the song along with strong vocals, sometimes too strong that it makes the song just plain rock even though it wasn't supposed to be rock in the first place. Also, Roselia is the best group in Bandori imo (reminds me of Bud Virgin Logic in SB69)
Project Sekai
- stays true to the original, sometimes sounds better than the original, sometimes they don't. Also, Nene best girl.
This is my opinion, if you have nothing good to say as a reply you are free to ignore my comment.
Anyway, nice comparison video. I never knew they had so many songs in common as I have only played Bandori for a short while and been playing Project Sekai JP since release.
Fun fact: Ichika in Project Sekai is the main vocal of Bud Virgin Logic in SB69

@@Tealxer FACTS
I'm a project sekai player, so I'm very biased. However, there's something I've noticed that makes me really want to get into bandori, especially with the recent art style change they had. For one, with the music, I love how they seem to change the instrumental to turn it into a whole new song that (most likely) fits the very genre of their bands. The song and the message it has is the same, but they turn it into a different style, like a remix (basically what D4DJ does but in a more stylized manner.). Even so, the very reason I like prsk is because I am a very hardcore vocaloid fan, and I'm happy that prsk likes to stay true to the original song itself, considering prsk being a very tribute to the vocaloid fandom.
I like prsk's songs because they give the originals justice, while I also like bandori's as they change it up into a whole new version with a different feel.
i kinda love how with the more obscure covers you cant even tell if its a cover or an original lol
I agree
@@susannakervinen3979My problem with these songs from Bandori is they just don't keep the tone or message of the original songs.
Plus with covers Colorful Stage you can hear something pretty similar to Bandori just takes awhile to unlock sadly.
@@hungerxhunger2548project sekai is definitely better then bandori , because it’s just clearer and not chaotic . But I just say if proseka let the VA‘s sing a bit free style it would’ve bin a bit better !
@@fruitloop2488you can't say that because they have different styles and sometimes the Vocaloid singers flop
I feel like project sekai sticks with the style and feel of the original song but bandori sticks to the style of each group. For example, shoujo rei in the bandori version sounded entergetic and the card looked happy while the song is about s**cide. On the other hand, project sekai stayed with the meaning of the song, making it sound sadder and the card look more depressing (since it’s about s**cide).
suicide and and also inferences to SA in the second chorus. that cover missed the mark so bad 💀
@@wooogie672 ong
@-liittle- pretty much lmao
the card was actually mashiro's kirameki festival card and is unrelated to the song heh
@@geomectias the song sounded happy tho

@@lexzi30minori 😭😭
as an ex-bandori player who later on changed to pjsk (bc i lost my bandori acc) all songs have their own style of music/vocals.
example, charles, yukina vocals really is amazing and you could feel her emotions to the song. while as pjsk is more softer and sadder.
theres good pjsk songs as well like Dramaturgy by eve. the vocals fit better to the original Eve song which makes it pleasant to hear while bandori music and vocals are more rock-ish to fit Afterglow.
time to time i enjoy hearing to bandori's original songs as well
I ALSO LOST MY OLD BANDORI ACCOUNT!!!!!!
Me three 😭
Same I also lost mine, but now I play both games

Afterglow have many a good cover songs too
Same but honestly both phony covers sound horrible. I can't stand hearing both of them, I'm so glad you can pick the original on the games
I don’t play bandori but I find it interesting that a lot of people are calling ichika’s voice soft. I would say she was one of the strongest voices in prosekai. Though I’m wondering what people mean by strength and power of voice. I’m a singer so I equate it with the ability to be clear and loud, which matter most when your reaching the edge of your range in either direction and belting. A good example of what I mean is against the currents singer.
I think they mean something that sounds imposing, or something.
Interesting how actual singers agree that Ichika's a good vocalist while non-singers say she's horrible and use old covers as examples... like that's the point. She was meant to sound amateurish in the beginning.
Also, if you don't mind, who are your top five vocalists of project sekai?
@@chiika118 Tough pick. With just considering singing ability and how much I like their tone, akito, mizuki, ichika, mafuyu, ena(?) there’s too many people tied for fifth. My other considerations were all of WxS because they all have very good range, support(the ability to not sound strained) and emotion. And Toya because he has very good range and support and I really like his tone.(also has good emotion but less than WxS)
With considering emotion though, tsukasa or emu have to replace Ena cause they have so much character in their singing. Which sometimes comes at the cost of blending with the group(mostly in older songs), sounding too shrill(emu), or lack of support
@@ViridianEnchantress I see, I also have Akito, Mizuki, Ichika and Ena in my top five! Shizuku too I think. She has a soft voice type but it's interesting how she keeps her timbre stable when doing challenging notes and not strain. For WxS, I really like Rui's and Nene's voices; it's hard for me to pick between them since they're pretty close.
Touya has a really nice low register, if I remember correctly, he reached a D2 note in 'Beyond The Way'.
@@chiika118 I really like shizuku’s voice too!She could also be top 5 actually…. Ah choosing is hard.
Rui and Nene are really good too, Emu and Tsukasa standout more to me because of the character in there singing but I think Rui and Nene have better support. All of WxS is pretty close for me.
I honestly not sure which part you’re talking about but D2 is impressive! His higher register is really nice too. One of my favourite songs for him is Dawn and Fireflies(I’m sad we won’t get a full cover)

SPARKLE REFERENCE????
Bandori’s Bring it on has my entire heart bro. One of my favourite covers and gameplay ever.
As someone who plays both bang dream and colorful stage on the English servers, I have to say I highly adore and appreciate the power the vocals and instrumentals of the songs from Bandori give off. Especially the songs from Roselia and Raise A Sullen
Bandori sounds like a liveshow and Project Sekai sounds like a cover !
Bandori covers are like a new breath of air
I'm my opinion, some songs are just too strong
Im convinced Mmj and N25 have NO bad covers I literally love all of them!
my faves 😋😋
MMJ has pretty good covers, altho I usually get told I’m psychic for playing on sekai covers and having MMJ songs as favs 😂😂
REAL ASF THEY NEVER FLOP
The vampire sounds terrible imo
@@wd4kariWHAT I LITERALLY LOVE THE VAMPIRE??
The two definitely have their own charms and their own differences to fit different music tastes. Personally I prefer PJSK mostly because I like the sound of the original Vocaloid songs, but I can totally see why Bandori covers are just as good and why some people prefer them!
Shoujo Rei is supposed to be a somber and soft song so that's what disappointed me with how Bandori interpreted their cover. If they did it differently I would've liked their cover too because I would've liked a Bandori cover of my favorite song but the cutesy voices don't do it for me
Same with into the night
But I think bandori is more of a hard rock type of game other than having different hearings and feelings in project sekai
@@luangrathnguyen2407 I do think that they could have also just not have sang it
I liked it better
a shoujo rei covered by morfonica would've had me emotional with the inclusion of the violin 😢💔
Bandori covers feel like a live concert and pjsekai covera feel like... regular covers? I dunno how to put it.
Yeah bandori covers feel like they are giving it their all and a lot more emotional in terms of the delivery, while pjsk covers are trying to imitate the original song as much as possible imo
LOL at least Colorful Stage keeps the actual meaning of a song.
Fyi their are cover versions of the songs without the vocaloid if you want that too.

also can bushiroad release more morfonica covers for vocaloid songs 💔💔💔💔 they have one and two in total if u includ the kasushiro cover
i kinda think proseka va's don't really put all of their energy tbh, like i think most of them can sing so much more powerful, but maybe due to them pitching their voices or maybe even character personalities, they sound pretty chill. i haven't played bandori, but omg, the vocals go crazy fr. i think both games' vas do great job, i like all (OR MOST) of the covers and they even inspired me to start learning how to sing :')
I think it comes down to a lot of factors: firstly, as you mentioned, their characters voices, the first person that comes to mind is Akina, her voice as Kohane is a little limited and only with newer songs she seems to have the freedom to use a deeper voice. Also, pjsk are mostly groups, not bands (with the exception of L/N) so their sound is more pop than rock, therefore the mixing of voices should be softer and it shouldn't apply to Leo/need but I think that they decided to leave their voices like that so the group wouldn't stick like a sore thumb. It also comes from the concepts of both games, while bandori are girl bands, pjsk is a world with performers who meet vocaloids, therefore bandori feels like seeing a band at a live house while pjsk feels like listening to a new release from an artist on Spotify. I think the processings and mixing done are also important, bandori vocals feel raw, pjsk feel processed, when seeing live performances of both games you can hear it, bandori doesn't really sound too different, but pjsk does they sound louder and more powerful specially niigo for example
Both covers are really good but one thing is, i like how to project sekai covers stay more true tp the originals, Like how in Hated by life itself the vocals in pjsekai are more soft like the original tuning
I love your pfpppppp

@@hungerxhunger2548Your definitely right
バンドリみたいなオリジナルが聴いた曲も、プロセカみたいな原曲をリスペクトした曲どっちも好きすぎてやばい
I ADORE THE PJSK COVERS SM
i think the thing about the early project sekai covers that make them sound so weird is that it seemed like the game didnt know how to balance the real voices with the vocaloids yet, so in a lot of covers the vocaloid blends in with the real voices and kinda makes it sound more shallow and gets rid of the vocal quality. i think project sekai has improved at this, but it makes some of the early covers hard to listen to. but overall, i like how voices blend together and the less harsh vocals are more my jam. i think each characters very unique voice adds a lot to the covers and i think its really nice.
on the flip side, due to personal preference i dont really like the bandori covers mostly because of how they sing. its not bad at all, but just personally i dont vibe with the kind of tone and technique they use in their covers. however, i think the covers are very unique, theres a lot of variation to them and they are very rich sounding which i enjoy.
i tried to be not too biased in that little analysis and although im a pjsk fan im not here to hate on bandori i think the songs are good theyre just not my personal preference
agree w you about the bandori covers. sometimes i think their much stronger vocals go really hard in certain songs, often where pjsekai falls short (lost one's weeping, six trillion years, roki, etc) but for some of the songs that use not overpowering/softer vocals (into the night, karakuri pierrot, shoujorei) i prefer pjsekai covers.
Istg project sekai covers were so bad at the start to the point where i started playing them on mute 💀- AND ESPECIALLY ROKI . Miku's awful tuning and the bad mixing really ruined that cover .. if it was an Ichika solo cover i know for sure it would've been so good .. same goes to lost one's weeping 😭
And The bandori part was so accurate istg , it's sometimes very hard to listen to bandori covers . especially hated by life itself wich was supposed to be a much more calming song but for some reason afterglow's cover really ruined it ..
@@ena_reimonhated by life itself is not a "calming" song ☠️ bandori tried to sound more like the original mafumafu version

@@ena_reimon prob cause u thought she sounded raspy and forced her voice
idk how to put it simply, but bandori feels like they colorized the cover song with their own color while proseka still feels the same as original does. Still, proseka feels like a symphony when covering a song while bandori on the other hand feels like a duet
i just will forever that bandori does their own instrumentals and these are REAL people with real instruments and real performances like agshhh. no hate to pjsekai whatsoever but bandori will always have a place in my heart
I came into this with clear favorites, but MAN I have to say, I don’t know if I actually do anymore. The only thing I like ~slightly~ better with some of these is that BanG Dream actually covers the songs and changes the key, instrumentals, and even some vocal inflections. Proseka changes the key sometimes, but mostly stays true to the original. It’s so good either way!!!
I’m a firm believer that some of the bandori covers are better than even their originals…. Charles especially, but I also feel this way about goodbye declaration and dramaturgy

Both Bandori’s and Psekai’s covers are both wonderful in their own ways. Bandori’s takes a song and makes it their very own, while Psekai is more faithful to the original, mostly using the same instrumental of the original song.
(I saw other doing this list thing and I wanna do it too. No hate to any of the groups.)
1. Psekai - I just feel like the multiple vocals brought more life to the song. If it were just one singing it would be a tie.
2. Bandori - Yukina’s voice is just so powerful and gorgeous and elegant oh my goodness.
3. Bandori - not even a completion. Bandori’s sounds more fun and energetic; would definitely dance to it. Plus MocaRan.
4. Bandori - RAS just got the song, made it their own, and did it justice. Love it.
5. Psekai - I just like psekai’s more. No comment.
6. Tie - I just can’t choose. They’re both so freaking beautiful in their own way.
7. Psekai - I feel like their versions does the song more justice.
8. Psekai - Their version is so good. Plus it doesn’t seem like a song Kokoro would sing…
9. Bandori - THE INSTRUMENTAL GOES HARD FOR THIS ONE YUKINA AND LISA’S BASS SLAYED
10. Bandori - It would tie; it’s just that Kasumi’s voice got that POWER.
11. Bandori - I just feel like Bandori’s version just got the rawness and power Psekai’s version doesn’t
12. Bandori - I just feel like the harmony for Psekai’s doesn’t work that much. Slaps tho, but I have to give it to Bandori.
13. Tie. I love them both so much I can’t choose.
14. Psekai - Does the song justice.
15. Tie - They’re both alright; not the biggest fan of the song, but it’s good.
16. Psekai - It has a nice bittersweet touch to it, and I like it.
17. Psekai - I just like it better.
18. Tie - I can’t. I really can’t choose which one’s better. They’re both glorious in their own way.
19. Bandori - only by a small margin.
20. Pseaki - THE FEELS
21. Bandori - I just like LAYER’s voice in this better.
22. Tie - Both are so amazing I really can’t.
23. Tie. Bandori’s feels as if Ran is so done with it so she’s screaming (in a good way). Psekai’s feels as if they’re so done with it, they don’t has any breath left (in a good way). Both approach the sing in different ways so it’s difficult to pick which one.
24. Bandori - No comment really. I just feel like Kokoro’s voice makes the sing more energetic, while PSekai’ more quiet-ish.
25. Bandori - RUI ON THE VIOLIN ADDS SO MUCH. Plus I feel like Psekai’s is a bit higher for this that takes away from the sing.
26. Bandori - only by a small margin
27. Psekai - I feel like Bandori’s new instrumental kinda takes away from the sing. Just me.
28. Bandori - I love bandori’s cover SO FREAKING MUCH KASUMI’S VOICE IS SO CUTE YET SO POWERFUL
29. Psekai - The song doesn’t really fit Yukina?? Really fits VBS tho.
Bandori - 13 (not counting ties)
Psekai - 10 (not counting ties)
29. I think it's fit. Yukina sounds is better, i like the verse part of the song.
3. Am I the only one that prefers pjsekai? Like Ichikas growl and idk why but the bandori sounds odd to me
OH MY GOD CHARLES BANDORI VERSION BLEW ME AWAY W THE VOCALS
I played bandori way before pjsekai came out, and I have to give a point to bandori for the instrumentals and the powerful vocals. That said, I don't mean to throw shade onto pjsekai! (as I absolutely ADORE both franchises) Pjsekai also has its own charm, it's more polished I think? They're also trying to keep the feel of the original, which I respect!
Basically, both are great in their own ways! Props the VA's for their great work! 💖💖💖
layer’s version of bring it on will always be superior to everything and anything
Ras always has great covers
I'm just happy both versions of KING are amazing.
tbh the only reason i play prsk is cuz it has male vocalists and all the vocaloids (vocaloids have been a huge part of my childhood so obviously the game which has them would be the one i prefer) also cuz im tired of "all waifu" gacha games so i stopped playing bandori after a few days, but dem some of the bandori covers sound amazing and i love the deep voices some of the characters have.
Agreed. Although Bandori is a cool game, some of the fan service is annoying ☹️
@@angelzladderexcuse me WHAT??? i just started playing bandori not long ago, IT HAS FAN SERVICE ????
@@theomylescrumbs It might just be me exaggerating, and since I also started playing I'm not sure. But some cards are kind of weird to say the least.
@@theomylescrumbsBut tbh I'm not surprised bc I heard someone say that the game is targeted for old men ☹️
@@angelzladderA good rythem game that I recommend playing is D4DJ! It has a few cards that could be seen as fan service but it's only with their adult units, also has canon lesbians
I like the project Sekai more since the voice sounds more clear to me and not as rough (like kinda forced but not? Though project Sekai has the same problem with some songs.), and I like how project Sekai has more songs with more than one or two people/person since I like harmony and makes it sound more lovely. And I like how they keep the same beat from the original songs since it doesn’t feel more different than the original. Though I’m not saying Bandori is bad it is still good, there are some covers I like more than project Sekai. Again this is just my opinion. (I played both games, I played Bandori three years but I switched to project Sekai when I started playing it more and needed storage. I started playing project Sekai when it was published for English AppStore.)
To me a few of the bandori ones felt a little rough around the edges (like I think they went flat on a few harder notes more often, happens with sekai too sometimes tho), but there were some I preferred too! The differences are bigger than I had realized in the styles for sure.
not kinda forced, definitely forced
@@wooogie672maybe they don’t sound boring as duck like project sekai voice actors and bandori singers don’t sound like they’re bored and actually put emotion into their songs 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@epic73011 idk how many covers you’ve listened to to come to the conclusion that pjsk voice actors don’t put emotion into their performances…. loud and yelling ≠ expressing emotion
@@wooogie672what ☠️☠️
11:02 OMG I DIDN'T KNOW BANDORI MADE A COLLAB WITH KURO-CHAN OMG
as someone who only plays global, this was news to me and now I can't wait for that song to drop in global 🤲🏼😭
PJSK player, I expected to be more biased to PJSK covers but damn, some bandori covers slaps
19-10 THERE WAS SO MANY CLOSE CALLS
I am a biased bandori player, I really enjoy the vocals and creative instruments. I wish they had other characters sing more, and I also really liked some pjsk covers, like how smooth it felt (IDK HOW TO EXPLAIN) the odo one was hard to decide, I enjoyed the bandori cover with the use of drums and guitar and diverse vocals, but the pjsk sounded really satisfying, ultimately everything is based on preference and experience ‼️
どっちも好き！！！
Bandori for me. I love ProSeka but most of the covers sound like instrumentals with added on vocals. one thing about Bandori that makes it noticeably superior for me is the rearrangement that makes each song sound like an original. They've both done amazing work but Bandori nailed almost every cover they've made so far.
Favorite cover from each game: Setsuna Trip from Bandori, Shoujo Rei from ProSeka.
Bandori covers are on another level tbh 🙏🙏
the phony convers on pjsk and bandori are both god tier
As a bandori and pjsekai player, I mostly like Bandori covers more than pjsekai probably bc I like intense songs and some of Yukina, Ran and LAYER covers are powerful and intense too so I love that very much. Pjsekai is good too but its not rlly my type and Im actually a vocaloid fans so I mostly use vocaloid covers than sekai cover.
gotta love how ran and ichika effectively serve the same purpose between the games
すっかり音ゲーをしなくなったけど、バンドリのロキと劣等上等、プロセカのKINGといーあーるふぁんくらぶは今聞いても神曲。大好き
all such talented singers !!
Putting these covers side by side was such a good idea! Thank you 🫶
while i personally enjoy bandoris covers more, i dont think theres really a need to compare the two since theyre both trying to do very different things with their covers. both have their pros and are good without the two fandoms needing to fight over which is better (even though thats mostly just the tiktokers who feel the need to put down eachother)
They’re all so good! I think that Bandori VAs can really go all out on their vocals but pjsekai vocals are a little softer so u can still hear the virtual singers. Also cos pjsekai has male singers as well. So pjsekai is really close to the original and bandori is kinda like a broadway rendition, it’s made to be heard through large numbers I think:)
akitoya dramaturgy cover 🔛🔝
YES
Any roselia/ras/afterglow cover wins hands down.
Bandori reminds me of individual talents who have their own success solo but PJSK is like a choir of kids who harmonise and match with each other
бандори мой дом. безумно люблю их каверы и не только. но и у секая многое нравится (хоть я в него и не играю, но многие каверы сохраняю себе отдельно в плейлист)
I really Love Bandori vocals on Happy Synthesizer, Charles, King, and Bring it on cover:D
well im being biased because i love akito but i really like how pjsk has more vocalists it just makes the game feel like home yk
plus i really like the artstyle
pjsk has more vocalists because it's more so like units (other than leoni as it's a band) in where everyone sints together, while bandori are bands (suggested by the name) so they have a set vocalist, meaning the vocalist will obviously get more lines and songs over the other members
Prosekas covers are in my personal opinion better or just more that I like them more. Bandori has vocals that kind of overpowers the music to where the voices are the focus. In proseka however both the vocals and music are of equal focus and sound a lot clearer together. It’s not a bad thing either way just my personal preference by ear 😭. Also I feel like proseka covers have more versatility in the voices and production (some don’t I’d say but yk) and I mean that in the way that you can tell distinctively the difference of the characters singing in one song and the ranges in which they sing changes with the song too. Again Bandori’s covers aren’t bad I like them too just by my personal preference I like project sekais more, they’re more listenable to me (for the most part I don’t like some covers) 👍
Edit: ig I’m just saying I like that prosekas sound closer to the original and I do know that bandori does their own instrumentals which some prefer just not me tho. Do attack me also pls 🥲
As a pjsk player i wish their covers were more like bandori's😭 maybe bc i have a weak spot for powerful and raw voices
Bandori for me sounds more live and human like, and the proseka is like ai sound, prob because i just started playing proseka
To be honest, I like bandori more. I’m not trying to be biased now, but it is mostly better. They add some spices to the covers and the Roselia ones are the best. I love how they turn songs into more “rock” types. Maybe I am biased idk, I played project sekai to compare loved bandori songs more
It really is, I'm a pjsk only player and I prefer bandori covers more too mainly because they are a lot more emotional and have their own style in covering the song. Not to mention, the vocal skills are also evidently better in some covers
After listening to all songs in full, here is which covers I prefer (or think both are good):

2:45 Fun fact: There's an archived version of this song in PJSEKAI that is sung by Nagi and her friend.
WHERE
@@angelzladder Just type down "Asu no Yozora PJSEKAI archived version"
this video made me want to play Bandori , the covers are so good
God they both sound amazing. Odo especially im having such a hard time deciding which i like more, because RAISE A SUILEN is my favorite band of Bandori and LAYER and Yukina absolutely CRUSH it, but god Vivid BAD SQUAD's version is just amazing (especially the woahs lol). Man, I love both Bandori and PJSK sm
The two things that are pretty different between them for me are instrumental and quality of the vocals
Nothing will ever beat roselia's spin on covers. The way Yukina carries a song will always be breathtaking. Her voice on anything is literally a sure sign that a song will be good. As someone who's now switched to pjsk (I just prefer the interface and the way the game is played in general), I sometimes go back to may bandori acc just to play roselia songs XD
My favourites:
Happy Synthesizer- bandori(The proseka cover is very dry-)
Charles- this is hard, but proseka wins
Roki- Bandori(I don't like Miku's voice in the proseka version, but Ichika sounds good)
Bring it on- proseka(The proseka cover isn't the best thing in the world, but I still prefer it more than the Bandori version)
Buriki no dance- Both
Night Sky patrol of tomorrow- L/N and bandori(i hate the an and kohane ver. sorry-)

Romeo and Cinderella- Bandori(Bandori ver.>>>>> Proseka
ver.)
Sixtrilion years- idk
Lost one's weeping- bandori
Venon- proseka(Mizuki voice🛐)
Kakuri pierrot- proseka(I only like it because of Haruka's voice)

Goodbye declaration- bandori
Vampire- prosekai
Yoru ni Kakeru- prosekai
Alien, Alien- proseka(I'm not a big fan of kokoro's voice sorry)
Amanojaku- Bandori(I can see the effort that Ran's voice actor put into this cover...)
Daybreak frontline- BANDORIBANDORIBANDORI (It's the only version of Frontline daybreak that I genuinely like)
Phony- bandori (I'm not a big fan of the song in general, but I admit that Bandori's version is better)
