Eve's Just Life cover

Eve (いぶ), formerly known as Keitora (けいとら) and Kurowa (クロわ), is an utaite known for his very distinctive thin, boyish voice which despite being slightly nasal in tone, is very gentle and nice-flowing. His voice is usually described as being shota-like or "cute", however he can also sing in a more uncharacteristically rough manner, as seen in parts of his cover of "Headphone Actor"Nnd32. He generally sings in a deeper mid-range voice, but tends to shift registers to a slightly higher range when necessary, such as in his cover of "Nakimushi Robot"Nnd32.

He first started uploading covers in April 2009 at the age of 13, however his first cover as "Eve", "TRAGIC BOY" Nnd32, was uploaded in October 2009. Prior to this, he had gone by two different names, Kurowa and Keitora, before finally settling on his current name. Most of his covers from 2009 have since been either deleted or set to private with few exceptions; somewhat unusually, his mylists divide his uploads by the year they were uploaded.

Though he mostly sings VOCALOID songs from a variety of genres, he is also known to be a fan of indie and folk rock, having covered songs by the bands Galileo Galilei and RADWIMPS. Aside from covering songs, he himself was one of the lead singers for the former Japanese indie band einie, alongside Natsushiro Takaaki. He also composed songs and wrote lyrics for the band.

In addition to vocals, he also plays the acoustic guitar and has accompanied his singing a few times with his own acoustic arrangements. An example of this would be his cover of the RADWIMPS song "37458"Nnd32. He also serves as an extra guitarist on some of einie's songs.

He has participated in several live events since his debut and has also been featured in a remarkable number of the utaite-centric magazines, Utattemita no Hon and 2.5Song MATE.[3]

Eve has also worked as a guest seiyuu in the anime Mecha-Ude. He cameos as a classmate of one of the protagonists, who shares the same design as the protagonist of Eve's "Ano Ko no Secret" music video.

Eve is the creator of the ongoing manga Kara no Kioku, featuring a few characters from his MVs such as Tobi, Noppo, and Hitotsume.

On May 18, 2021, Eve surpassed 3 million subscribers on YouTube.[4] Around a month before that, on April 13, 2021, Eve's music video for Kaikai Kitan had surpassed 100 million views, being the first music video from Eve's channel to hit that milestone.[5] He is now slightly past 4 million as of 2023.

Around the last week of June 2021, his music video for Dramaturgy had surpassed 100 million views, making a live version on July 1 of the same year.
