In a Very Important Friday Tradition, We Have New STARMARIE

/ Homicidol Maniac

When was the last time we got to do a STARMARIE post? I know things have been weird out there, but Friday and STARMARIE used to go together like spaghetti and meat sauce (which is to say, deliciously). Yeah, more often than not it was just live clips, but what’s wrong with that? Truth be told, ol’ STARMARIE hasn’t done a whole lot of new material in recent times, and IIRC it’s been almost a year since their last release, and nowadays Homicidols Dot Com really relies on those new releases to have things to talk about.

BUT THIS IS A STARMARIE POST, and if there’s one thing that STARMARIE has always been good at providing, it’s cool idorock befitting their gimmick as like guardians of esoteric knowledge or what have you, but actually more precisely it’s cool idorock that works well as theme songs for other media. And here we are again! I was very pleased to find that STARMARIE had a whole new MV for a whole new song, like just generally, and deeply unsurprised to see that it’s a theme for a movie: Continue reading →

UNDER BEASTY Got Themselves a TV Show Theme

/ Homicidol Maniac

Where my other old-time UNDER BEASTY fans at? This is so cool, right? Our girls landed themselves a TV show theme, and while it is pretty standard idorock, it’s good standard idorock, and with a cool MV to boot:

UB’s soon to celebrate their seventh anniversary (as UNDER BEASTY). I’m always so happy for them.

This is a very short post because I’m on a train

Is This SPARK SPEAKER’s Moment?

/ Homicidol Maniac / 3 Comments

Do you want to know why the Weekender was late, other than because somebody needed to have breakfast made on account of a little too much carousing last night? It’s because I wanted to add a SPARK SPEAKER note but this was right there in the feed and I needed to get my stuff together enough to watch it multiple times and think of a post to blog!

Anyway, listen, this is very cool and good for the former DINOSAUR BRAIN: Following on the release of THE WORLD IS MINE, the song from it called “REALTA” got picked up as the end theme of a TV show for January, and while this is a really awkwardly grammared sentence it must yet be added that “REALTA” was also given the MV treatment because that makes a ton of sense to do in that situation.

TV show! Theme! MV! Here!

This Is the Result When Babymetal Does Anime

/ Homicidol Maniac / 3 Comments

No, no, you goofs, not that promised anime series starring/about Babymetal that just disappeared into the ether; I’m talking about the more-recently-announced theme song for the UniKitty Cartoon Network show. I … I can barely contain myself?


Technically not anime because reasons, but you know what I mean

I Can Only Express My Feelings about the New ayumikurikamaki Single via Emoji

/ Homicidol Maniac

However, the presence of my own editorial standards (yes, they exist, smart-ass) precludes my actual using said emoji to communicate, so we’ll have to settle for words.

What matters: Ayukuma is doing the theme music for another anime, and will be releasing that song as a single in December:

That’s a long time away! Continue reading →

Insert Bad Pun about Closing Themes by Aina the End

/ Homicidol Maniac / 4 Comments

The TeddyLoid + Aina the End collaboration has borne more fruit, amigos, which we knew was going to happen but finally came upon us the other day. How, uh … how do you feel about it?

Better than the last one, at least? Continue reading →

Kamen Joshi’s Latest Song Is a Theme Song for Food

/ Homicidol Maniac / 4 Comments

The Alice Project’s Kamen Joshi, aka the Mask Girls, aka the Kamen Joshi in the same way that it’s not Ohio State but the Ohio State, don’t do the whole album thing so much, or even the whole single thing at a rate that would fit into more typical idol norms; no, Kamen Joshi, now that they’ve taken over all of the release responsibilities for the constituent elements of the group, are quite a bit too busy with daily stage shows and various endorsements to be doing such trite stuff as singles and albums and MVs (and when they go so far, they only release short versions!).

Now, it’s pretty normal for idols to do theme songs. What’s a little less normal is for idols to do theme songs for food:

Pretty: BiSH’s St. Chitti Singing So Sweetly

/ Homicidol Maniac

A quick little thing found via the BiSH Facebook fan group:

This normally wouldn’t be an anime kind of site, but folks love anime, and idols and anime are like peanut butter and jelly. This is a little like having Joan Jett singing your show’s closing theme, but that’s fine. Good for Chitti.
