Alternate video title: The Luka Luka Night Fever of 2009

I am here because recently I see less of Luka in concerts. This makes me sad, I really like her, she can be just as cute as the rest, but for some reason I sense her decline in popularity. Her anniversary is coming up and I don't even see any new produced songs.

i feel like after lukas popularity died down, gumi really got big. not as big as luka or miku maybe, but gumi was super popular

I think it’s because she was revolutionary as she was the first bilingual vocaloid and of her elegant look (rip) and on top of that, her voice provider was one of my favorite singers when I was a child. I remember being so attracted to her voice banks because of how well she can blend easier and it was so much fun to make her rap. RAP!! I also really loved Meiko before Luka came out however, she was incredibly difficult to work with... (where are all of the songs I produced you may ask... it’s gone. I deleted them or it’s all the way in Japan that was turned into a gameboy )

finally an explanation for the octopus....

I haven't seen a lot of people delve into the history and fan culture behind vocaloid throughout the years, and you do it in a really informative but enjoyable way too. This channel's seriously underrated, I'm really glad I happened to come across it!

it's so sad that luka's basically dead now. ofc there's well tuned miku and rin songs out there but luka's the cryptonloid that at least for me i specifically want to hear instead of going for a human cover. and that's despite that she's apparently hard to use

Goddamit i really miss that times...

if u listened to just be friends ur depressed now

Double Lariat was the first VOCALOID song that I heard, I didnt realize that was synth, for me it was a japanese with an husky voice, and the MV was the Touhou version, gold times.

The first vocaloid song I ever discovered was Just be Friends. It was featured in a dress up game of all places. I followed a link crediting the song and it was all over for me. I fell in love with luka!!

Luka "skinny legend" Megurine like this video lmao

Luka is still Queen to me. I love her so much.

i’ve been going on a trip back to vocaloid during this quarantine and i cried watching this. i miss this so much. it’s been four years since i listened to vocaloid and hearing all the music brought me back.

Luka is actually how I found Vocaloid during this time

this makes me sad because luka was my first favorite vocaloid ever :(

No others can beat Luka’s hip movement when she’s performing Double Lariat live.

Anyone remember when MEIKO was queen? No? Just me? Oh okay

props for ending on YY, such a great song! There was a fair bit of this I didn't know! Actually, most of this I didn't now. I particularly found the origin of tako luka interesting. Good work

Luka was and always will be my favorite vocaloid

This is the perfect kind of vocaloid content for newbies (Like me lol) I don't think there is anywhere else to really find this kind of vocaloid history! Ty!

Rip Samfree. May he rest well in his vocaloid heaven up there.

Double Lariat isn't just about Luka spinning! I can't let this disrespect slide. It's about Luka feeling insecure towards her friends' achievements, but she doesn't let that break her spirit and eventually reaches success through sheer effort. She also stays humble until the end by reminding herself that her friends have been there for her throughout her journey, and that she won't forget them even if she's reached success. In the song, the activity she and her friends work hard for is spinning, but the sentiment behind this song is applicable to any pursuit really. It's a sweet song. It comforted and motivated me when I was in the same situation. I think part of what made it popular was also due to how relatable it was, to artists and anyone putting in dedication to their work.

For me personally, I like her tuning the best in some post-hardcore and metal songs. She sounds so elegant and beautiful under Yuyoyuppe's and MuryoukuP's tuning.

Recently got back into vocaloid, seeing how much the Luka love has died down makes me so sad! She was and still is my favorite! 💜

Was “Teto Fever” ever a thing? I feel like for a while, you couldn’t go anywhere without seeing Teto. Mischievous Function, Kasane Territory, and Triple Baka were absolutely massive, and all had huge impacts. I mean, look up any of those songs, and you’ll see like 39 billion parodies of them. I also think this was more of a thing in the English speaking countries (I don’t doubt that this happened other places though) and, I think I might know why. We all made a cringey weeaboo Vocaloid oc. They were probably a Miku recolor, half animal or mythical creature, best friend with all of the Crypton Vocaloids, probably dating Len, one of the dere types, with a high pitcher “kawaii” voice. Now, look at Teto. She’s a Miku recolor, a chimera, appears in media with the Crypton Vocaloids, one of her most popular ships is with Len, she’s a Tsundere, and has a high pitched “kawaii” voice. Teto was literally our cringey ocs, and because of that, I think she resonated with a lot of people, but that’s just my speculation.

Double Lariat a song about JUST Luka spinning? Please, that's legit one of the most relatable song to anyone at all about comparing yourself to someone else and feeling like crap and still not giving up and keep improving. It def hit the spot for a lot of people and the bass isn't the only reason.

luka is the most unique vocaloid imo. she can be super cute but also cool and elegant. i love her voice so so much. i feel like the only reason shes not as popular as some other vocaloids is that she isnt a loli.

Luka Luka night fever it's one of my favorite songs ever, there's no way i can listen to it and feel angry, the dance it's cute and funny, it just lift you up.

She's gonna be always my Skinny Queen

what do you mean luka fever ended? im still in love. blackjack and luka luka nigh fever is in my phone ready to listen whenever.

For me among Cryptonloids: Kaito is a happy-go-lucky king Meiko is enrgetic and kind queen Luka is gentle and kind princess Rin and Len are pair of jesters who are just doing their own thing And Miku is just there.... That's my headcanon

She's still the QUEEN OF VOCALOID👑✨

Luka will always be my favorite. Always has been and always will. Her song Psychopath and Dancer in the Dark was on peak perfection. *italian hands kiss*

gosh I love all of your vocaloid content >_< !!! I really hope you eventually get to blow up, you're the type of video creator the vocaloid community needs who makes informative and interesting videos about the subject without "tryhard" humor most other sortof informative vocaloid content creators have. (no offense to them, but if I have to see one more text to speech video with Len death jokes I think I'll implode)

Luka Luka night fever is the song that comes to mind whenever someone mentions Luka. Another honorable mention is megane and just be friends.

i just found your channel, and ive been binging all your vids. its so nice to see more youtubers come forth and introduce new viewers to the history of vocaloid, at least now seeing as miku is preforming at Coachella! its an exciting time, and i cant wait for more people to start loving vocaloid the way we have for over a decade. thank you for uploading new videos, it warms my old weeb heart to the core

Okay you need more attention your videos are very well made and accurate. Im so happy our fandom is recovering

YY being at the end of video made me so happy! Glad to see vocaloid channels supporting new vocaloid producers. 23.exe deserves more views, their songs slap, and are really made well. Polygon Miku is something I never expected to like, yet I get really happy when I see her now. Thank you again for adding that small clip of YY in your video, hopefully this will help 23.exe get more popular in the vocaloid community.

Great video as always! I also appreciate to the shoutout of 23.exe's song "YY". It's such a banger and I hoep people start paying more attention to him as a producer. By the way congratulations on your college graduation and good luck on your future job. It might be tough to get used to work at hte beginning but I'm sure you'll manage. Don't worry about making us wait for videos. I rather wait a bit and get quality content like your videos than get a half assed video. I enjoy your videos a lot but your private life, health and well being is the most important thing. Don't overwork yourself, take small steps and take care of yourself. We'll wait for you :)

I remember a period of time where the rock genre gained prevalence in Vocaloid music as Vocaloid music production became more sophisticated and started to expand into other genres outside of jpop/electropop! Luka with her more mature voice and appearance fit the new sound and tone well and I remember Yuyoyuppe's music with Luka on vocal being some of the best i've ever heard. :)

I'm so proud of my girl.

If I ever cosplay Luka I'm 100% gonna use the gluttony sword from final fantasy.

Luka has been my fave vocaloid for a looong time, Double Lariat means a whole lot to me because I first heard it when I was still a newbie in the vocaloid community. And it kinda inspires me to try harder and that it's okay not to be the best, so I really love it and it only strenghtened my appreciation towards Luka. Also, I really like how No Logic, Double Lariat, Afterglow, Toeto and also a bit of Track create sort of a "childhood" for Luka, representing her in various ages and styles, the most iconic ones being little Luka with the kitten hat and her with short hair wearing glasses. I don't know if it actually has a connection, but I really like that detail. Also, Luka's songs always seemed more inspiring to me than most of other vocaloids' songs, they spread hopeful messages and I can relate more to them, so of course, her voice means quite a lot to me.

Been waiting for my boy at 6:16 Green shirt guy is a legend

I just wanna say I absolutely love your channel, dedicated and consistent Vocaloid channels in 2020 of all times is really hard to come by, and yours is truly a diamond in the rough. I was 9-10 when I found Vocaloid, your channel has been super informative on events and information my middle school brain wasn't even thinking about or looking out for at the time. I'm glad to have a source of information that speaks to the cultural movement that was a enormous part of my childhood. I'll be waiting eagerly for new videos!

Just Be Friends is still in my heart, just saying

Honestly Luka is my favorite vocaloid to this day but it's probably because JBF sits in my top 3 fav songs all style confounded. Crazy how a single song I discovered in highschool can bias my judgement forever.

how about IA.. if anything.. shes the one who really turn up and blow the competition like crazy

I remember this period and man, I miss when Luka was popular. She's been my favorite since she was released.

Not gonna lie when Samfree died I cried my eyes out.

I love luka she need more attencion

somewhere in an alternate universe: *”Man, i miss when Miku was popular :( it feels like it’s all about Luka nowadays”*

oh my god... you're entire channel is such a nostalgia trip! I was there! I was listening to vocaloid all the time and I remember when Luka was EVERYWHEREEEEE

Luka was my favourite vocaloid growing up

This content made my day~

i miss the luka and meiko days !!

You got a sub, luka still my Queen actually thanks for projects like circusp That Keep her alive most of it in english language, Also it Will be good of you talk about pinocchioP Keep the good Work

man Megurine Luka really is genuinely just the queen of Vocaloid...and the queen of my heart. Flower's still my favorite though. I love their voice.

Luka was my favorite when I first entered voca in 2009 and watching this explains so much why. I saw her everywhere and every song mentioned I had on my ipod 😂

0:58 who else paused at every frame to see all the art

Someone needs to make Luka popular again

Luka night fever , the best song to touge to in your ae86 when up against a yellow fd

i think luka is still a queen today, even though most people prefer miku. luka is under-rated unlike kagamine len( -banana boi- ), rin and miku, but she's still a queen to me :3 i really miss those times gosh dangit ;~;

I happened to join the fandom as the one true queen came out, Luka's still my favorite to this day 🐙

Luka will always be my queen

Just Be Friends is such a masterpiece, I still can't get over it; the song and music video just bring me back to those years and the art gives the vibe of those anime dress up games that I used to play for hours while listening to Vocaloid and watching anime :((

Honestly, I've been interested in vocaloid for so long but I never played it. I just listened to it growing up. I wish I knew the song just be friends sooner it's such a slap. Honestly its interesting that theres so much history and detail about vocaloid. Thank you for making these videos because it's so enjoyable to learn these things.

LUKA LUKA NIGHT FEVER IS MY FAVORITE VOCALOID SONG

Another good video! Focus on the job dont worry we can wait :)

idk why I cried when double lariat started playing, it brought me back to a time in my life where I was really obsessed with vocaloid and yes luka was my favourite vocaloid

Luka introduced me to Vocaloid so shs has a special place in my heart

Luka is still a queen in our heart's damn it! TwT

These videos are some of the most informative most interesting videos on youtube, thank you!

wow! just found your channel. glad to see other vocaloid historians out there. great content!

or as i call it the *LUKAPOCALYPSE*

The most important vocaloid song to me isn’t deep or anything like rolling girl, it’s actually Luka Luka Night Fever. That song kept me going for so long with its upbeat vibes and just because of that luka will always have a number one spot in my heart

Luka has always been my favorite.

I really like what you brought to this. Glad people will become informed more about this period, got into vocaloid in 2010 and it’s been a wild ass ride since

Thank you so much for video! This is such an interesting video, thank you for providing us with vocaloid history!

Thank you for making these videos. I used to be sooo into vocaloid from like 2010-2015, but gradually stopped listening during high school. I've been starting to listen to old tracks in the last few months which is probably why your videos popped up in my KZfaq recommendations. They're so lovely. I also love Luka haha, and it's amazing how much data you've accumulated about her. You've got a new subscriber! :)

I just found your vids tonight, and I gotta say that I really enjoy them. I don't listen to video essays as a rule, but yours are really great. Also thank you for explaining TakoLuka. I never understood why that was a thing.

I really loved that time! Now i feel that so many vocaloids are making the attention delude.

I remember how Luka completely dominated the rankings when she first came out. It was the most enthusiastic I ever saw the Vocaloid community for something new and beautiful. Damn, I'm old.

Yeah, I got hooked into vocaloid because of her. Course, Miku has the best songs and the most fine tuning and support but I always love seeing Luka. That one Track PV was mind blowing to me when I realized Luka actually did beat them all once upon a time.

Pls do something about Harumaki Gohan, also very nice Luka video, I personally love Leia by yuyoyuppe

Happy aniversary queen ♡

Your videos are so entertaining to waaaaatch

Honestly I've been a fan of Vocaloid for years now and it's honestly disappointing how much people put Miku in the starlight compared to other Vocaloids. Especially when there's so many more new Vocaloids that people don't even know about, and they have really nice voice banks 😅

Ahhh so much nostalgia! Luka really was one of my favorites. I was always so happy when I found a song that featured her! She will always hold a special spot in my heart. Oh and don't even get me started on the cult following soon after of using her in rock music! Her timber was so good for that genre. Leia, Corruption Garden, Hot Milk, Night and Day, Last Song, Meiteki Cybernetics (Otetsu as a whole tbh), -and who could forget Wash My Blood- . It was always so fun (if frustrating) digging through releases and lesser known producers looking for works featuring her!

it's really fun to see this, 'cause i actually entered vocaloid thanks to this period! luka was indeed my first vocaloid, and I'm very attached to her~

I’m glad I found this

luka was also, as far as I know, the start of vocarock really taking of!!

Also, “Gluttony sword” sounds like an Evillious item. I wonder how that would have changed the course of Evillious.

Luka has always been my favorite >.

Miku is the communist dictator and luka is the protesting citizen

So, she's already my favorite for being the prettiest one of the group, and having a lovelier voice, but now I learned her item is tuna? lol Awesome.

I LOVE Luka. I've been into Vocaloid fan since I was 12 and I don't interact with the fandom so I didn't know till I read the comments that Luka is basically dying as a Vocaloid now, makes me so sad to hear. She's one of my favorites. Also wondering if you thought of making similar videos for other Vocaloids, I would love to hear about the rise of Kaito or Rin & Len. :D

This video captures the great things about Luka, and I really do respect it. It's a shame that great songs like KuwagataP's Interviewer, Pablo Bablo's Mug Shot, Yuyoyuppe's You and Beautiful World etc didn't get enough attention, there's some really sick tunes there. props to you bro, looking forward for your next vids (y)
