What's with the quivering whenever she does some kind of vibrato...

I went back to watch it and you're right. It's there virtually every time. Then I saw a point where she used the shaky-"vibrato" then just after did her natural vibrato (and didn't shake).

I'd say you're exactly correct. She's doing more of a manufactured ornamentation. At the point in the video I linked here, you can see/hear her use that and then a natural (much weaker) vibrato. Probably a habit of doing the shaky thing for that effect as an alternative to her natural vibrato.

I know there's Japanese traditional vocal ornamentation that's wider/different than Western vibrato technique (e.g. RIKKI of SH, and Yuko Suzuhana of WagakkiBand), but when that's done well it doesn't require shaking of the head to achieve.
 
Oh I just realized they didn't post anything new last Friday... guess it's over?
(delusion time:) Or maybe they are holding off releasing a JAM PROJECT cover 'til it's closer to the GARO digital single (Feb 14)? XD
 
Have just noticed that it hasn’t been shared here. Shoot cover gets a proper release in Tamaki Nami’s new album.
