「MV」mumei 

im not crying you're crying

I am tearing up... Such a lovely song and lyrics - of course, your voice is the highlight

When she sang that one part that goes like, _”All I remember is that I forgot_ _Leaving a void within, but now I’ve met you_ _I don’t know your name or what you look like_ _Yet you feel so familiar_ _Making up for what we’re missing_ _We laugh and we smile_ _Within this world,_ _You are somewhere_ _For now we’ll keep going on_ _Without a name_ _Even if all of this turns out to be a mirage_ _I’ll still feel your presence out there_ _I don’t know your name or what you look like_ _Say "goodbye" and it will all be over_ _Without you, this void will only grow_ _No matter what, I’ll find you soon_ _Within this world,_ _Where are you?_ _Right now_ _I’m here,_ _I am_ _Nameless_ _A world of darkness surrounds me_ _As I fall headlong_ _Because I am nameless, this world_ _Will forget me, and I’ll disappear_ _But if I am what you are looking for_ _Through the void of my heart_ _A wind will blow from me to you_ _And a bird will come meet you_ _Within this world,_ _You are somewhere_ _Now, I’ll keep going_ _As Mumei”_ I felt that.

What a beautiful song!

Great job on the song~ The lyrics and animations are beautiful.

Expectation = Reality = What an amazing song. I'd be lying if I said I didn't get a little teary eyed from the lyrics

According to ancient Egyptian mythology, the human soul is divided into five aspects: The ba is your personality. It's the closest thing to what we would call the "soul" today. The ib is your heart. It also represents your morality, the sum of all of your good and bad deeds in life. The ka is your life force. It could also be described as your "energy". The sheut is your shadow. This is your entire impact on the people and world around you. The ren is your name. It's the sum of your life experiences that make you who you are today. I think the lantern Mumei is carrying is her ren. One day the world will forget about her completely, and her name will be lost to time. But no matter how small and insignificant her flame is, as long as someone is out there to remember her, that's enough to keep her going. 3:18 "Within this world, you are somewhere / Now I'll keep going as Mumei"😭

Seeing jp niki and other folks come back to this after you sang it at fes today warms my heart. You did great mooms, our idowl ❤ 🦉

無名(Mumei) in Japanese =not famous =anonymity =obscurity =nobody knows =without a name =nameless but she sang "as Mumei" because she is Mumei

I think the best part of the song is when she says "As Mumei" because the lyrics didn't change, she just came to know herself rather than being nameless.

I'm so happy she sang this song at 5th Fes, because now I see all these new people commenting about hearing the song for the first time and how it moved them. Thank you Mumei, TKN, and Big Bird for creating a piece of art that means so much to so many people across different languages and cultures.

最初この曲はムメイちゃんのための曲なのかと思っていましたが、聞いてみるとこれは私やあなたに向けた曲、私たちのための曲でもあるのだと思いました。曲名がMumeiではなくmumeiなのは、固有名詞ではない、名もない者たちへの勇気づけるための曲であるからなのだと感じました。そしてmumeiであることは決してマイナスなことではなく、可能性に満ちたことなのだと言われているように感じました。この世界に住むほとんどの人間のことを私たちは知らないし、知らないまま生きていくことのだと思いますが、重要なのはその誰かの名前がどうなのかではなく、私という存在がいることであり、あなたという存在がきっとこの世界にいるということなのだと。それをムメイちゃんが微笑みながら寄り添うように歌いかけてきてくれることがとても素敵だと思いました。 At first I thought this song was for Mumei, but when I listen to it, I realized that this song is also for you and me, for us. I felt that the reason why the name of the song is "mumei " and not "Mumei" , because it is not a proper noun, but a song to encourage the nameless. I also felt that being a mumei is not a negative thing, but a thing full of possibilities. We don't know most of the people who live in this world, and we will continue to live without knowing them, but what is important is not what someone's names are, but that I am here, and you must be in this world. I thought it was wonderful that Mumei sang to us with smiling and like standing close to us.

somehow the music vibe sounds like porter robinson or honeycomebear to me, very nice good mv and deep lore of "mumei" 😭

My interpretation of the song’s story: Mumei was lost and alone in the world, not really sure what to do. A nameless person will never be known or loved, destined to be forgotten. It hurts, because nobody wants to be alone, so she desperately wanted to find someone. The only clue she has is a lantern and a letter she found in the darkness. She doesn’t know the name or the face of the person who wrote the letter, but it was all she has, so she clings to it and it pushed her forward in the hopes of someday finding the letter’s author. In her head she’s imagining all the fins things they will do together. In her travels she meets the lady on the water. Who is this lady? She was someone else just like Mumei. This lady tells her to stop chasing shadows. This is when Mumei’s eyes are opened. You will never find someone chasing the idea of a person. Only by putting yourself out there to be seen will people find you. Looking at the lantern and no longer hiding under a hood she changes her position from a seeker to guide and is able to be a light in the darkness for others who were like her. She knows what it is like because she was just like them. She journeys across the darkness and other mumeis see her. The truth is that the world was never empty. She had focused on this one person in a letter that she could not see all the people who were around. And one day someone in the darkness finds her. Is this the person she was longing for? No, but this person is real and here now and that is worth so much more than some idea of a person. Eventually endings happen, but the world keeps going. The whale isn’t gonna stop swimming just because a light has gone out. The whale probably doesn’t even know it crossed the lantern holder’s path. You’re going to need to be okay with that. If you feel alone in the darkness desperately looking for someone, at the end of the song is a lantern left for you. It even has your name on it. Stop hiding your face, pick up that lantern and hold it up for someone to find you. It may not be the person you were looking for, but it will be even greater. It’s not a self titled song. It’s a song for you.

Porter robinson must watch this

"All I remember is that I forgot" Is such a cold and tragic way for a song to start, but I love it so much. It had my heart beating from the very start.

i'm in love tbh

The sheer number of languages being written down in the comments goes to show the power of this song. Mumei is a kind enough soul to be able to unite people across the world!

Mumei singing this in the 5th Fes was such a blessing to my ears and a total tearjerker...

わためぇのLIVEから来ました！すっごく良かった(ﾟ∀ﾟ)

After a quick read on what "Mumei" means, and just with reading the lyrics, this song becomes more than just a catchy song, it becomes a song about being "nameless", knowing that you wont be remembered and finally living with that fact but still moving forward. I love you Mooms, never change and we Hoomans will always be there for you, even when you are "nameless"

Who else teared up listening to this song and reading the lyrics. It’s one of those songs that you feel so emotional but can’t figure out why

A 43 year old man and I'm crying every time I listen to this song. Mumei created an absolute roller coaster of emotions. What a masterpiece.

5thライブで「mumei」を歌ってくれて、リスナーへの愛を唄ってくれてありがとう。 無名のHoomansだけど、あなたのおかげで、明日も世界のどこかで生きていけます。🪶 Thank you for singing "mumei" at the 5th live and for singing about love for the listeners. I may be an unknown Hoomans, but thanks to you, I can still live somewhere in the world tomorrow. Thanks so much,moom.

Best song ever (I’m a certified time traveler) Uptade: I told you

I was so struck by the imagery of the waving lantern, guiding me. It's Mumei saying: "I'm here! I'm here!" It's lovely.

This song feels so much like a Porter Robinson song and that made me fall in love with it immediately

わためのLIVEで聞いたけど 聞き心地良すぎるて

Seeing numerous languages in the comment like English Japanese Chinese Korean Russian Spanish etc really warms my heart❤Idowl is loved worldwide!

Damn if you told me this was a Porter Robinson joint I would totally believe you. Incredible song, that chorus is definitely going to be an earworm

At 5th fes I burst out crying really hard. Mumei's tender voice, the venue full of lightblue and green colors, and slow penlight wave, all of there made me very emotional. That was really great performance. Thank you Mumei. Big love from Japan💙

わためライブで聞いて来た！！　感動したぜ

Remember when she asked Calli to translate most of A New Start to English for her because she wasn't confident she could sing a whole song in Japanese? Our birb has come a long way

We Making It Out the Civilization With This One 🔥

A song about how significant you are despite how insignificant you may be in your perspective and how you pave the way for others in little ways whilst discovering who you are in your journey in life... This is so deep, I love it. Thank you Mumei for this wonderful song ❤

I started crying so hard at 3:10-3:25. At first you think she still has an emotionless face but then it zooms in and then you see she's smiling. The lyrics right before this part also hit home.

This is a song that has meaning but cannot be named. It's like here everyone knows each other but no one really knows their names. I love this song , thank you Mumei.

Im a grown man in my 30s. Im a mechanic and pretty much am set in my ways. I have a pessimistic way of looking at life and have been told by many i have no empathy. But this... this song first thing this morning had me emotional lying in bed. In a good way. Mumei amidst all the funny, twisted and down right bubbly personality you choose to show us; these soft, caring and optimistic songs hit hard. I am greatful for you and your staff for your hardwork and care you put in for us.

Every so often, the girls come out with a song that is genuinely something really very special, and this is Mumei's. Sweet, sad, and yet somehow still hopeful. What a wonderful song

この曲をライブで歌われたら絶対泣くだろうなと思ってたのですが、無事5thフェスで泣きました。本当によかった。

I'm JapanNiki, so I'll use the translation.🙇‍♂️ This song is very well sung by Mumei, and it fits Mumei's calm voice very well!🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠 I really like this song!♥️ I love Mumei!!!!!! Glad I could find Mumei!🥰

This song was so beautiful . Little Mumei holding up her lantern and waving it around kinda makes me sad but happy at the same time. While it's obvious that lanterns do help you see a little better and provide a sense of safety while you're wandering around aimlessly in the darkness, that light also acts as a beacon, too, so that anyone else out there who also may be wandering aimlessly in the dark can find you and offer help

わためえの生誕祭で聴いて感動しました。めっちゃ素敵な曲！

5thで初めて聴き感動してここにきました

Mumei, This is a very touching song. Having your name being "Nameless" has a melancholic feel. We all know you as "no one" in a sense, but i promise you are quite a "someone" in many Hoomans lives. I know the journey you've had up to this point has been rough at times, but the perseverance and dedication you show is deserving of the support you get Keep Moomin.

I actually cannot get over how hard the shot of Mumei waving the lantern around and smiling hits me. Some of my favorite imagery to ever come out of a hololive music video.

Thank you mumei! This was the last song I listened to before I fell very ill a few months ago. I couldn't see, couldn't even remember my wife's name. But this tune stuck with me the whole time and helped me remember who I was. I'm a lot better now, but I'm forever grateful for mumei getting me through a whole new kind of loneliness.

I sometimes forget how sad Mumei's lore really is. She's a pretty tragic character canonically

Mumei's lore is so sad. Nothing more heartwrenching that loneliness and being forgotten. Very well done animations and the music of course was off the charts.

32 years of living and even with siblings, a mother and an extended family, I still feel terribly lonely. Buts songs like this have always given me hope for better things. Thank you so much Mumie for this cute and emotional little tune.

巨匠ですら容易に到達できない、そんな芸術の1つなのかもしれない。 ムメイという言葉は人や物、あらゆる「無銘」への祈りの言葉のように聞こえる不思議な世界を作り出している。 曲、歌詞、唄声、どれか一つでも欠けていればただの作品となっていたかもしれない、見事なハーモニー。 音楽という芸術はこれほどの可能性を持っていることを改めて知ることができた。

I cried when you sang this song. Turns out it sounds even more beautiful in live version :"

有趣的是因為年歲過於長遠，我們的文明守護者連自己的名字都忘記了，所以Nanashi Mumei的名字本身就是「無名」的意思，所以這也是一首沒有名字的歌曲。

3 years in this rabbit hole and the amount of fun memories I've had is immeasurable i just got hit by biggest "future nostalgia" if this is even a thing we'll all eventually go and do our own things but i feel like in the future we'll all remember the fond memories we've had in this moment probably when im old I'll remember this song and the rush of memories is going to hit me hard

3:18 That dorky little grin is hilarious and fits so well. This whole song is a work of art though. The melody, the lyrics, the storytelling...they're top tier. Mumei's singing is downright amazing, and I hope she releases more projects like this in the future.

LIVEで泣きました ありがとう本当に🥲

This could either be a creepy song, or a "cheery" song with dark undertones. Either way hype!

We often joke around how weird and different Mumei is from the rest of the world, but the truth is we deeply associate ourselves with your thoughts and experience. We finally found someone who may actually represent us and that is why so many people love you and will love you forever.

"all i remember is that i forgot" she really elevates the "i forgor" meme into a heart-destroying song it splits my soul in half.

昨日のフェスで知って、この曲を今まで知らなかった事を後悔してるくらい感動しました。

The song has the same vibes and goosebumps as Peter Robinson's Shelter. I love it.

Mumei has always been a consistently talented singer in HoloEN... but with this? She's gone over and beyond. It's like listening to someone sing about herself. The depths of her identity. What it means to be the Speaker of Civilization. It made me cry a bit - and I think, while it's an unintended emotion, it's me resonating with the emotions brought about by this song. That, combined with the animation, makes for an amazing MV. Thank you, Mumei. Thank you for reminding me why a departed friend of mine considered you as his oshi. Never stop being amazing. 🤎🤎🤎

5thライブで初めて聞きましたが今日ずっと脳裏に焼き付いて離れませんでした。 儚げな静寂から美しく強烈な世界観をたたきつけてくるサビは素晴らしく、 私たち一人一人へ向けた優しく美しい歌詞に感極まって涙が出てしまいます。 ムメイさん、TKNさん、こんなに素晴らしい楽曲を届けてくれてありがとうございます。 I couldn't forget this song for all day after i heard this for the first time at the 5th live. The gap between fragile silence and it's chorus that show us beautiful world is really awesome. And the tears come into my eyes because of it's beautiful tender lyrics for each of us. mumei, TKN, i really thank you for delivering such a amazing song.

We cried again today. Thank you Mumei.

LETS GO MOOOOOMS

I love the way Mumei conveys the messages in the lyrics as it feels like an actual old forgotten story (indeed it is)

I don't know why, but four months later, the image of Mumei waving her lantern on top of the hill still makes me cry

歌詞 忘れてしまったことだけを覚えている ぽかりと空いた穴の先で君と出会った 名前も顔もわからない君 なんだか懐かしいような気がした 互いに穴埋めていくように ふざけあって　笑いあって 世界のどこかにいる君のため 今生きているよ僕ら無名のまま 例えばこれが映し出された幻でも 確かに感じる今君がそこにいること 名前も顔もわからない君 さよならしてしまえば終わりだ 君がいなきゃ穴は大きくなる 構わないさ　すぐ見つかる 世界のどこかにいる君はどこ 今ここにいるよ私 “無名” あたりは一面真っ暗な世界 真っ逆さまに落ちていく 無名だからこの世界には 忘れられ消えちゃうの それでも君が求めるのなら この胸に空いた穴に今 君から私へ風は通り抜け 一羽の鳥が今君の元へと行く 世界のどこかにいる君のため 今生きていくよ私 “ムメイ”のまま

Has Mumei's name meaning nameless in japanese been a known thing? I just learned it and I'm not ok... Man, Mumei keeps making songs that make me feel things... This is beautiful.

Sincerely one of the most artistic and unique MVs that I've seen from a Hololive original song. Not just that, but it's such an emotional song, too. Here's hoping that it reaches millions of people, out there. ❤

この曲は“mumei”でも世界の誰とでも深く繋がれることを証明している。そして、それは決して幻なんかじゃない。

Mumei's Japanese voice always sounds so smoothing I was wondering why the song was only called "mumei", then I remember mumei means "nameless" in Japanese

I see a lot of Porter Robinson influence in this masterpiece! It's been a while since such a beautiful song has made me cry manly tears. Love your work and singing, Mumei! You really do be moomin'! Props to the talents behind this beautiful MV. Truly a work of emotional art!

今日初めてフェスで聴いて感動して泣いてしまった。ありがとう。

i've never listen to this song before, but i've watched mumei last karaoke singing mukanjyo many times recently because i like it very much. yesterday i watched hololive 5th fes stage 3 live viewing in the cinema, and when mumei came and singing this song, my tears came out suddenly. What a great song Mumei, I love it 😭😭😭

This song and MV hits really hard to me.I will listen to this song every day from now on. Mumei is a Guardian of “Civilization”. She will guide humanity not to get lost with lantern. Mumei, It took really long time for you to reach from 'nameless' to 'mumei'. I've been watching you for a long time, So I know there were a hard times. And now, I'm so proud of you for having your own name. As always, I will follow your journey gladly. And no matter what, I'll always cheer and support you. 사랑해요 무메이!

Amazing song Mumei

なんで泣きそうになるんだろう不思議な曲

3:38 what makes mumei so cute here is the fact her pony tail like is almost a big as her whole body.

The progression we see from "without a name", "nameless" and finally "Mumei" is sooooo smart, I loved that detail, such an amazing concept❤❤

You can't just drop a banger like this with no warning

Recently, I was in a state of depression, but like the lyrics of this song you sang on HoloFes, you found me, and I found you. Thank you for changing life's despair into hope. Thank you so much Mumei

Mumei's performance of this amazing song in 5th Fes is simply a must see for every hololive fans

VTuber就是這麼一種存在 你不知道名字 不知道樣貌 一句"再見"就一切都完了 如同一場幻影 因為"無名"很快就會被遺忘 消失 但若果你渴望的話 那隻鳥兒還是會飛去找你 作為一個"mumei"

Decided to try out music in the VTubing community, saw Mumei thinking "I didn't know she did music". Didn't know hololive members all sang. It probably doesn't mean much, but This is Truly Beautiful, & Genuinely Soul Touching. The Singing, Composition, the Art and Illustration. An Ironically Resplendent and Radiant feeling of Hope is felt. To be born in a world so full of Darkness & Cruelty. Looking for someone or something, a purpose or a person, to truly connect with feels bleak, even impossible. You could spend forever only hoping to find a glimpse or a remnant of what makes you feel truly alive. You cannot control the people around you, the environment you have to start growing in and get through, the circumstances that affect & can determine most of your life. How the void in oneself that constantly eats away at you, how long it stays, how much it takes and tolls your mind and body. Yet somehow when you are faced with this strife we experience all throughout life, we grow. A spark of joy in knowing the lives you can affect along the way. The smiles you can bring, the tears you can shed, the burdens you can share. No matter how small you feel in a world as huge as we live in. Maybe names are forgotten, but memories are shared, your name and face can be forgotten but does that mean you did not live life? No, the lives we've touched, the light we've shed, the places we've nurtured and built, everything will go on. To know a face, or a name, to have met or not. To find happiness in knowing you've shed a light for others to see its shine, feel its warmth and experience its awe and inspiration is a wondrous feeling. That in your pursuit of purpose, meaning, or a connection to or with others, that somehow you are what someone else was looking for and hoping to find. It's Magic. For those who read this, I Thank you for your time, Sorry I got carried away. I try to avoid commenting & writing things especially like this. I didn't want to waste my time alive not saying how I feel. I wish you the best, and for Hope to have found their way to you. Thank You to everyone that worked on this song as well, it helps a lot when you come together to make something as inspiring as this for others to see and hear. TKN-Tokkun, Mumei, and Otori. 💛

わためぇから来ました　リピートとまらん

5thfesで現地で拝見し、感動しました。 透明感のあるMumeiさんの透き通った綺麗な声とこの曲の優しさ、繊細さが完璧にマッチしていてとても美しく聴き心地が良く、この歌詞聴けば聴くほど深みが出てきて色々なことを考えさせられます。大好きな曲になりました。 ありがとう。

I don't even know how many times I've replayed this song trying to figure out why it makes me feel emotional... And I'm still trying to figure it out.

Just the thumnail alone gives me chills , can't wait for it

Mumei has built a haven for us all. Lonely, lost, nameless. I feel like the world is a brighter place with her around.

5th fes was my first time hearing this song and it was hitting hard even if I didn't know the lyrics. Coming here and listening a couple times and reading the lyrics and then 2:58 really got the tears flowing. I felt sadness, loneliness, hope, and then comfort as I listened. This is a really touching song.

這首歌完全不是v的格局所能限制的啊，我很少用中文在非中文的頻道留言，但是這次我實在怕我沒辦法好好的用英文說出我所受到的觸動，樸實的旋律，配上Mumei那平淡卻包含感情的聲音，加上歌詞所表達的內容，MV的畫面呈現，只能有一個讚真的是太少了 我只能說這首歌是我覺得數一數二的原創歌，能卡在腦海深處，很難膩味的那種，真的很喜歡memei的歌聲，也期待未來更多美好的作品❤

Definitely one of the best Hololive originals. Gotta be the most lore relevant/poignant one.

Mumei's live performance of this song in 5th fes was amazing

5thフェスで知って聞きました、めっちゃステキです！

Such a certified banger! This song has that Porter Robinson vibe to it, especially the drop. Listening from the future

This is probably the first HoloEn song that made me cry during my first listen. The pandemic and the subsequent lockdown has made a toll on my mental health. It was the worst headspace I've been in. And that's when CouncilRys or I should say, Promise debuted. They genuinely have saved me from the worst hole I've been in and since then, I've been trying to find who I am and my purpose. This song reminded me of why I started. My true self is still out there and I'm going to find it. Thank you Mumei.

ライブで知った！まじでいい曲だなぁ

when people ask why Nanashi Mumei is my favourite VTuber it's hard to explain... but this music and video illustrates it perfect. Thanks moomers ❤

真是一首好歌，搭配MV讓人有莫名的沉浸感 聽的時候，不知道想到什麼，莫名其妙就讓人想哭， 聽到最後又覺得很暖， 另外mumei的嗓音真的很棒。
