Genre Shift

comment
Genre Shift: Her initial style was a unique fusion of baroque pop, dark ambient, Goth Rock and Doom Metal...with cellos. Later works lean more towards mainstream Anime pop, but the gothic and doom influences are still there.

I Call It "Vera": They aren't weapons (well at least not deadly weapons) but Kanon has names for each one of her cellos. Color-Coded for Your Convenience: And they're all of different colors as well. Japanese Honorifics: she also refers to each one in different honorifics: Yaeharu-san is a regular brown cello that she has since middle school, the first one actually, so we're assuming that the "-san" is out of... respect? Nanachie-chan is the red cello seen in the "Suna no Oshiro" PV, and frequently accompanies her in promos and events. Mikazuki-kun is the white cello she usually takes it in tours. Momo-chan/ Momotose: it's a silver cello and it's the newest one, it made its debut in the "Lolitaowrk-Libretto" PV.
