It's so easy to #kisskissfallinlove with this series 💋💋😍!!!  Where to even begin? It was the first shojo I'd ever seen that took all of the typical tropes and turned them upside down on their heads.  The manga is so beautiful... and it’s complete! I wish they would finally give us a season 2 and finish this heart-wrenching and heart-warming story!  In the meantime, we hope you enjoy our cover of Sakura Kiss! Please also check out our REAL anime covers on Spotify, where we have the whole band and studio recordings! https://spoti.fi/2XxiYnB

Love,

NEW COVER from our FAVORITE mecha anime of all time! (Sorry, Evangelion)

Falling asleep, when suddenly you remember that cringey thing that happened when you where only 9.

Fruits basket introduced us to all the tropes that make our hearts go doki doki! We hope you’ll check out our newest cover of the original Fruits Basket theme on our YouTube! https://youtu.be/m11-lAKkdOw

Happy Birthday to our lead singer @regemmzz !!! We all wish we could return to simpler times... maybe that's why everything nowadays seems to be a remake.

The studios can do whatever they want to our favortie characters. Turn them to live action, change the way they look (most specifically making them shinier for some reason?) It's okay though, because in our minds, nothing beats a classic.

Check out our studio recorded covers on spotify! 

Lots of you have been asking if any of us in the band actually SPEAK Japanese. Excellent question!

Our lead singer @regemmzz studied Japanese for several years and lived in Tokyo for 5 months where at the peak of her studies she became conversational/intermediate. Whenever we do a cover, we work hard to make sure we have a strong understanding of the lyrics, both the pronunciation of the Japanese and the meaning behind the words.

Wow! We just hit over 5,000 monthly listeners on Spotify for our anime covers! We hope you all continue to enjoy them!

🔥🎶NEW MUSIC OUT NOW🎶🔥 99.9 from MOB PSYCHO 100 II LINK: https://spoti.fi/2XxiYnB

Mob Pyscho 100 is a relatively new anime, but its fanbase has grown like Mob's powers. The manga and anime deals with dark themes of immortality, sinfulness, and the fear of unlimited power in the wrong hands. Underneath all that though are the themes of adolescence and an in depth study of the desperate desire us humans have to fit in... As those of us in the band navigate through our twenties, it felt like a natural selection for our next cover.

Hmmm, yes seems accurate. Especially when the bff joins in!

What are your favorite anime songs to dance to?

Wahh! Otaku Ongaku is 1 year old! We don't know exactly when we first started making anime covers together, but we know it all started last summer.

Since starting, we've had over 90K streams on Spotify, recorded three singles, and have performed at Anime NYC!

Here is to the future! May our drills pierce the heavens!

We’ve been re-reading the Inuyasha manga! It really reminds us of why we fell in love with anime and manga in the first place. Excellent storytelling, beautifully displayed.

How about you? What was the first manga/anime/cartoon/comic that got you into otaku culture?
