[Songs] Exec Ar Tonelico

Recently I've found myself hooked onto hymms from Ar Tonelico.

Ar Tonelico is a game which sounds a lot like a fighting RPG and dating sim put together, but it's not. The fighting RPG thing is still there, but you play as the human and you're not supposed to date your counterparts, known as Reyvateils. All Reyvateils are female so in comes the common female harem in video games.

Even though I've heard the game sucks and I don't like female harems, but I do like the hymms they sing. I especially like Akiko Shikata's hymms, though I'm okay with Mitose Noriko and Shimotsuki Haruka. Exec Chronicle Key and Exec Flip Arphage are absolutely my favourites, I can't get bored of them~

I've also discovered that Exec Chronicle Key is a nice song to play when it's raining heavily. Try someday, it just gives you this really nice feeling. Exec Flip Arphage is more hardcore after the quiet beginning and a lot of people use it for HetaOni AMVs. Or whatever Movie Video it is.

I insert here a picture of Misha, the girl who is supposedly singing when it's actually Akiko singing. I don't think she's very pretty, but I do like Akiko's voice very much.


The Yin/Yang things in her hair are the only things that really make her ugly, other than that she's not so bad. Well, maybe something can be done about the pigtails coming out of the tomoe hairbands in her hair. Akiko sings Exec Chronicle Key under the guise of Misha.

Akiko Shikata also sings for another Reyvateil named Saki. Saki's supposedly the one singing Exec Flip Arphage.

Since I'm on it, I'll put the two other heroine Reyvateils here, and come to think of it, the antagonist too.

This one's Aurica. There's a song named Exec Purger which both Misha and Aurica sing but they have different versions for both of them. I don't really like her hymm singer, but Aurica's quite pretty though.

I find Shurelia's clothes kind of disturbing, but I like the translucent petal-like things at the top of her boots. It's quite cool even if it's not ideal for wearing. She's supposed to be over 700 years old, which is plain creepy but it's always like that.

And this is, or was, the antagonist. Her name is, or was, Mir. The picture I upload, however, is the so-called reborn her, rechristened as Jacqli. Weird name, don't you think? But I guess it has some meaning in another language.

I say Jacqli's dress is cool even if she doesn't look that pretty.


Sayon.
