Editor's note

Watanabe Mayu's clean, melodic idol pop

From AKB48's first generation to solo hits like "Junjou Soda-sui," her voice defined a certain kind of straightforward Japanese pop.

For the clean, melodic side of her sound, start with "Junjou Soda-sui." The top songs list includes "Kiss No Sonar Oto" and "Futari No Yoake" too.

Her 2013 single "Junjou Soda-sui" became her signature song, a track about unrequited feelings that connected with listeners. Songs like "Mirai No Koibito" and "Lavender no Jutan" followed that same path of clean, melodic idol pop. She was one of AKB48's most popular members before going solo, and her 2012 album "Mayuyu" hit number one on the Oricon charts.

She joined AKB48 at age 11 after auditioning for the group's first generation. Her solo career began with the 2010 debut single "Dear J," then paused in 2014 for vocal cord surgery before returning in 2017 with a second album called "Mayu Tomita."
