(since there's so little English information on this group I've tried translating their profiles myself sorry if there's mistakes)

Maneki Kecak/Maneki Kecha/まねきケチャ

Maneki = To lead or beckon/a reference to the waving lucky cats 'maneki-neko'

Kecak/kecha = Literally means a Balinese traditional dance(involving fire and such) but in wotagei is when fans push their arms forward towards their idol in a feat of passion in passionate moments of songs.

I couldn't find proper explanation of group's name, so this is how I see it.

Maneki is a noun form for japanese verb "maneku" (like in manekineko) + Kecak is indonesian word for traditional dance performance.

Thanks for all the links :D

Some great songs that don't have music videos

 

EDIT: Just saw your edit, whilst Kecak is an indonesian fire/traditional dance it's also a wotagei term. You know when it's a vocal focused part of a song and the fans all push their arms forward over and over?(I'll add it to the opening page info!)

 

SPLASH

 

Time Machine

 

Honestly kimi wazurai is such a great song

You could say that her great vocals leave perfect times for powerful 'kecha' from fans :3

But yeah her vocals really pull you into their songs so well :D I love the mix of cute voices with her strong voice, it's so soothing.
