Panaman (ぱなまん) is a relatively new utaite known for his powerful, syrupy yet crisp, mid-high ranged voice. His singing style includes distinct trills and inflections, is particularly expressive and has a guttural, slightly rough quality to it; as such, his voice is often described as being suited to rock songs. His song choices also tend to reflect this, as the intensity of his singing often prevents him from covering slower-paced songs or ballads as effectively; however he has covered quiet songs such as Telomere no Ubugoe and has stated that he enjoys and wishes to practice singing similarly non-rock songs. His debut cover was the ballad Refrain Loop, which was later re-mixed by the original composer of the song, KazukunP; however, like many of his early covers, it has since been omitted from his mylist. His first hit cover was Last Last, which currently has 102K views and 5K mylists, and his most popular cover is Kanashimi no Nami ni Oboreru, which currently has 156K views and 7K mylists as of April 2014. His singing voice and vocal style are often compared to those of professional musicians, and in particular are noted to be quite similar to those of Taka's, the lead vocalist of the band ONE OK ROCK, which is often commented on by viewers whenever he covers one of their songs.
