Terra...?

[Sagat believer]

TËЯRA's all over Bemani (although they started in PoMu). Does this mean that the band is mainly a IIDX contributor (given the Hyper J-pop series)?

You're just full of win, aren't you. This version is ownage. Must have more...
As for vocal combinations:
1) Miharu + Junko Hirata
2) Kanako + Yoma
3) Sana + (someone)

First, number one would be pretty interesting; those two have roughly that same hearty range and they both have voices that I like a lot. Having the same range may not give much harmonizing opportunities, but at least the hypothetical song they would sing wouldn't go beyond either their voice ranges.

The only comment I have about the second one is that it's hard to tell. To me, the quality of Yoma's voice is like a chameleon, which changes all the time. That's why it's so hard for me to tell her voice apart from the others sometimes. I must say though, her voice is definitely my favorite of the original BeForU members.

Sana is a tricky one. Her whispy voice is unique enough that it's hard to find a good voice to blend with. In this case, it's Sayaka all the way since she seems to blend perfectly with any person she sings with.

Perhaps we should somehow combine this thread with the other one and call it Bemani J-pop or something.

Interesting. With the little I know, there isn't one song Des-Row made that has a female vocalist, which makes it all the more interesting. Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm trying to fit Caldeira and Outphase in there somewhere.

[Shigekix]

I was thinking, actually, there was a reason it's called 月光(ver0.99). Compared to the original, some parts sound a bit unpolished (but definitely not the vocals )

EDIT: I'm in the process of a major re-vamp of the TERRA article on Wikipedia, and I think it may be full of BS. Is Sota involved with TERRA other than a remixer? Is Masao really the lead guitar? (I thought it was NAOKI)

[nilmind]

I'm playing the Kanako mini album version and platoniX version at the same time with two different media players. Sounds pretty nifty.

EDIT: Oh yeah, I really was looking at that article just the other day. In fact, just today, I looked on youtube for their Stars*** and North Wind performance from Pop'n. I'm pretty sure that Naoki is the lead guitarist, but I'll double check. I made one change a couple days ago...that 13th track on REVOLUTION used to be just "The Holy Bell Resounds in the Streets" and no Japanese characters. We still need the romaji pronunciation of that track though.

聖なる鐘が、鳴り響く街 = seinaru kane ga, narihibiku machi
Nifty site for all BeForU/TËRRA fans. Heck, for all BEMANI players not fluent in kanji

[kannazuki]

That would be 聖なる鐘が、鳴り響く街 [Seinaru Kane ga, Nari Hibiku Machi]. And no, I don't think that Sota is more involved than a remixer, not to mention that on the TERRA site jun is credited as 作詞/作曲/ボーカル担当 (lyrics/composition/lead vocal) while Naoki is credited as 作曲/アレンジ/ギター/プロデュース担当 (composition/arrange/guitar/lead producer). So yeah, you can basically break TERRA down in to jun on vocals and Naoki on guitar.

Phew, I had an annoyance attack right now. I started seeing IntelliTXT up in Bemanistyle, but then I realized I cleared my cookies to get Systran to work.
Let's try to get rid of the original research box at the top of their Wiki article.

[nilmind]

Alright, I'm totally bookmarking that translation site thingy. This was the first one that can actually get the kanji right (all the other ones keep giving me something like "yuki gatsu hana" whenever I put in 雪月花 instead of "setsugekka" like it should). EDIT: although inputting 華蝶風雪 still gives me "hana fuusetsu" instead of "kachoufuusetsu."

Oh yeah, and you can change the letter O's in the titles of REVOLUTION and EVOLUTION. They should be a Phi (Ф) instead of that "O" with a cross through, which I think they use in Scandinavia or something (Ø). Apparently, I think they got this misinformation from Chudah's Corner.

You got it. Although, I'm getting mixed messages about that. Chudah's Corner has it as the weird Ø, while Konamistyle has the phi symbol. But then...

The album cover has the Scandinavian thingamabob.

[nilmind]

Ah d'oh. Hmm...then I don't know about that one...

And this may also be a bit minor, but I think Alfarshear (Full version) should be Alfarshear (The Legend of Silver Wing). The real full version will hopefully be in their next album.

[Shigekix]

Ne'er mind. nilmind's smarter than I thought, and I thought he was smart to begin with.

Well, try pressing that refresh button a couple times and I'm sure you'll get the Zenith one again. It's really cool that they give you a 50/50 chance of what skin you'll get (and yeah, they did this since the site opened ).

Hmm... that's really weird. I've always gotten the Zenith one, and I gotta tell you I've been there a lot

EDIT: TERRA doesn't like me. I've only gotten the Flowers skin once.
RE-EDIT: Refreshing 20 times resulted in 19 Zeniths and 1 Flowers.
