Their songs have been featured in several anime and games including ''[[Venus Versus Virus]]'', ''[[Kurokami]]'', ''[[Mai Hi ME]]'', ''[[Queens Blade]]'', ''[[Seikon no Qwaser]]'', ''[[Innocent Venus]]'', and ''[[Magical Pokaan]]''. As quoted (and translated roughly) from their official website: {{quote\| ''"The belief modern humans have in fairies has lessened over the years. with our music, we aim for the reconstruction of the fairy world devastated by this lack of belief."''}} Lineup includes (with the latter two added this year): Line 22 ⟶ 20: * ''Momo no Mori'' (1998) * ''Shikou no Momo'' (1999) [remix album of the previous Momo's] * ''Owari no Shissu ~[[Tsui no Yakata~]]'' (2004) [ending songs compilation] * ''Stigma'' (2005) * ''Mai-~~[[Hi ME]]~~HiME OST - Last Moment'' (2005) * ''Ashita wo Yurushite'' (2006) * ''Senketsu no Chikai'' (2006) Line 47 ⟶ 45: * ''filament'' (2012) {{creatortropes}} ~~=== Yousei Teikoku provides examples of: ===~~ * [[Ascend to Aa Higher Plane of Existence]]: It's generally agreed ''Schwarzer Sarg'' is about death. Though depending on what translation you're looking at, it also tells a tale of a girl who died (possibly by suicide) and looks down and pities the rest of the human world. That, or it's just [[Word Salad Lyrics]] about death. ▼ * [[Ascended Fangirl]]: Yui voiced a character in ''[[~~Black Butler (Manga)\|~~Black Butler]]''. ▼ ▲* [[Ascend to A Higher Plane of Existence]]: It's generally agreed ''Schwarzer Sarg'' is about death.

Just look at the two main album titles. * [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin]]: ''Kikai Shoujo Gensou'' means ''The Machine Girl's Fantasy'' * [[For Doom the Bell Tolls]]: The beginning of ''Wahrheit''. * [[Gratuitous English]]: In ''Patriot Anthem'': "I am a martyr! I am a believer! I believe just in the fairy!" * [[Gratuitous French]]: ''Eternal Waltz''. * [[Gratuitous German]]: And HOW! ** Just to drive the point home, they had an official live called 920Putsch. * [[Ill Girl]]: The protagonist of ''Kikai Shoujo Gensou''. Line 70 ⟶ 67: * [[Music Box Intervals]]: ''Wahrheit''. * [[Neoclassical Punk Zydeco Rockabilly]]: See above. The "genres" section of their Wikipedia page changes about twice a week. Yeah. * [[Non -Appearing Title]]: Nearly all of their songs. One of the only ones that ''does'' appear is ''Kokou no Sousei''. * [[Oh Crap]]: Basically the reaction of ''Kikai Shoujo Gensou'' 's protagonist as she realizes that getting this "perfect" machine body will take away her humanity. * [[Ominous Latin Chanting]]: Too many to list. * [[Ominous Music Box Tune]]: ''Hidden Truth''. * [[Only Known Byby Their Nickname]]: Averted with Yui. Even though she officially goes by "Yousei Yui" in the band, she's also a seiyuu, and it's pretty well known that her last name is Itsuki. * [[Really 700 Years Old]]: Yui, "as a fairy", claims to be 4325 years old. * [[Robot Girl]]: What the aforementioned Ill Girl becomes. * [[Scare Chord]]: ''Wisdom'' starts out as a creepy little piano tune, then...BAM. * [[Signature Song]]: ''Last Moment'' or ''Kokou no Sousei''. * [[The Stoic]]: Yui pulls this off very well. * [[Summoning Ritual]]: ''Senketsu no Chikai''. * [[Ye Olde Butcherede Englishe\|Ye Olde Butcherede Japanese]]: Again, this is merely whatever translation you're reading, but...''Senketsu no Chikai'': "O mysterious spell of summoning, bequeath thy answer to me."
