Here's the updated collection of Yakumo's music, as it was at the end of New Kalani (including the last album she released as related to her goal). Many of the links to the songs weren't working anymore so I went ahead and updated that as well, so all the songs should have a functional YouTube link now for those who want to give a listen.

NOTE: All lyrics can be found here (use the sidemenu for easy navigation). Some lyrics have been changed from their original versions to better fit in with the setting.

Yakumo's first album, released not long after her gempukku. Only released in Spider territories, as well as a limited release among the Crane due to her Crane-training. This album features a bit more experimental music, as well as some of her first pop-hits that would help her rise to popularity, but Yakumo has expressed in interviews she wishes to work with different kind of music again.

1. Pulse
2. Idol Talk
3. Sound of Harmony
4. The Borderline
5. Information High
6. Voices
7. Obelisk
8. Conquerors

Her second album, Victory was a much greater commercial success than her debut album, having a much stronger pop-beat. Released two years ago, it was a bestseller in the Spider territorites, and was quite successful in its limited release among the Crane as well. Despite not having a release in Mantis territories, it was an underground favorite and DJs would play bootleg versions at trendy clubs.

1. Unstoppable
2. Attack
3. The Wind Begins To Blow Without Warning
4. Dangerous Borderline
5. Absolute 5
6. Destructive Purity
7. Our Battlefield
8. Wings of Goodbye

While not considered a proper album, the Live album recorded at Blackfish Den on the Mantis world of New Kalani saw a successful limited release not long after the intimate concert, capitalizing on the moment with a quick release. It's considered a collector's item at this point.
The album was dedicated to the deceased musician Tsuruchi Koharu, who is featured in the concert, a brave Mantis samurai-ko who gave her life to stop terrorists.


1. Dangerous Borderline
2. NEW: I Know Your Blues
3. Obelisk
4. The Wind Begins To Blow Without Warning
5. NEW: Northern Cross
7. Rainbow-Spider-Shrimp Medley ft. Yoritomo Jiro and Tsuruchi Koharu

Released with the sponsorship of the Miya, Hear The Universe is Yakumo's first album that has been officially distributed among all the clans. It continues to pop-style of her previous album, Victory, with some songs playing strongly to Yakumo's sex appeal that has no doubt contributed to her success. The songs Northern Cross and I Know Your Blues appeared first on the live album, prior to their studio recording on this album.
Those who bought the Limited Deluxe Edition (which also included an exclusive poster and stickers) also got an bonus track with their copies.


1. Hear The Universe
2. Northern Cross
3. Warrior
4. Here
5. Forbidden Elixir
6. Neo Stream
7. Galaxy Spider
8. I Know Your Blues
9. Do You Remember Love?
10. AXIA (I Love You As Much As I Hate You)
Bonus Track (Limited Deluxe Edition): LOVE! THUNDER GLOW

Of Yakumo's more commercially successful albums, Illusory Light is perhaps the most varied of her albums. Sing My Pleasure, Morning Star, and Song Of Scattering Reverberations have that powerful melody that Yakumo grew famous for, while Sailor, Illusory Light, and Song Of Prayer are solid ballads. Glittering Summer has a high-energy dancebeat with cute pop-tones, and Charge, Love Heart!! has an almost rock'n'roll like vibe to its nature. The album has earned praise for this diverse range and claim that there's almost something for everyone.
A limited edition release included the live-performances of Morning Star, Song Of Scattering Reverberations, and Charge, Love Heart!! at the Wicked Wasp on World of Dreams.


1. Sing My Pleasure
2. Sailor
3. Morning Star
4. Song of Scattering Reverberation
5. If This Love Can Only Come Once
6. Illusory Light
7. Glittering Summer
8. Song of Prayer
9. Infinity
10. Charge, Love Heart!! (ft Soshi Kazumi and Asahina Hinata)
