  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

Orangestar

Current YouTube avatar

Orangestar (Born August 20th 1997, also known with his producer handle Mikansei-P) is a Vocaloid composer mainly known for using IA as a vocal of choice and his many, many, many Summer-themed songs.

Debuted way back in 2013, Orangestar remains mostly under the radar for quite a while. His first hit song "Mikansei Time Limiter" drew some attention to him, but it's his "Earphones to Semishigure" and "Asu no Yozora Shoukaihan" that finally brought him into mainstream attention, in which almost everything he's released entering the Hall of Fame or Hall of Legends ever since.

As hinted above, he's well-known for using IA as vocal. His songs are known for having nostalgic melodies and centered around the concept of Summer memories, with emphasis on guitar and piano instruments. Additionally, despite mostly known for his IA songs, he has also released songs that utilize Hatsune Miku and the CeVIO ONE.

Tropes found within his works and artist style

  • Breakthrough Hit: Earphones to Semishigure and Asu no Yozora Shoukaihan, especially the latter.
  • Creator Thumbprint: Most of his songs (especially post-Mikansei Time Limiter) have a distinct style that separate themselves from other Vocarock songs. A lot says their melodies invoke nostalgia of Summer, which is pretty much intended.
  • Epic Instrumental Opener: Some of the songs have around 60 seconds instrumental intro.
  • Nostalgia Filter: Pretty much invoked in most of his songs.
  • Recurring Element:
    • A lot of his songs feature elements related to Summer, nostalgia, or both.
    • The girl that appears in the ARIA ON THE PLANETES trilogy and the cover of both Mikansei Eight Beats and SEASIDE SOLILOQUIES.
  • Signature Device: He's among the producers tightly associated with IA.
  • Signature Song: The ARIA ON THE PLANETES trilogy, which consist of Earphones to Semishigure, Asu no Yozora Shoukaihan and Ame Kigoe Zankyou.
  • Rearrange the Song:
    • Kimi no Yozora Shoukaihan is one to Asu no Yozora Shoukaihan.
    • Lingering Fireworks is the English version of Zantou Hanabi.
    • Natsuiro Answer ~The different story~ is one to the original Natsuiro Answer.
    • The album SEASIDE SOLILOQUIES also contains the acoustic rearrangement of DAYBREAK FRONTLINE.
  • Something Completely Different:
    • In the song CITRUS, Orangestar also uses ONE, a CeVIO. ONE was made by the same parent company that released IA.
    • Shinshou Shinkirou is performed by Mearii, a human singer instead of a synth vocal.
