Is it just me or do all Japanese vocal songs sound the same?

Post by Mikurotoro92 »

This is something I've noticed with most Japanese vocal songs especially in video games & anime all the songs sound the same & to be perfectly honest I'm kinda sick of it!

If you've heard one then you've heard them all!

This is why I prefer mostly classic VGM & modern VGM without lyrics (there are only a FEW exceptions to this)

Does anybody else agree?

Also why is it this way?

DISCLAIMER: I am NOT saying people can't or shouldn't like this kind of music this is just an observation I made!
