Looks like this is the set list for miku expo unless they change it for North America.

As if that song wasn't overplayed already. I hope there will be a few changes for the NA show.

>Snowman and World's End Dancehall

YO Kaito getting an actual good song this time around? Hell yes. WED is probably one of my favorite duets, so I'm stoked already.

Been googling the past few hours but no ones posted another list to confirm it. Probably get more posts in the next few hours when nippon wakes up.

>still not leaked

>>14964339
i just wanna say i love your handwriting its adorable

Another list of songs from the show, it looks like there were only two English songs thank god.

>>14965700
It's obviously not his, look underneath, there's some Japanese papers. It's most likely from the staff.

>>14965588
buy it

>>14966489
Japan only.

>>14966512
post a request order on otakurepublic or find a deputy service

>>14966512
Here's what you do:
Step 1: Get a forwarding service
Step 2: Once you get a Japanese address from said forwarding service, you buy it http://yadukimaru.thebase.in/items/2685247

Optional: If you feel that your moonrunes are atrocious you could pay more for a private proxy to buy it for you. Regardless, you should probably get it now before they sell out, C89 happened a few months ago.

Can we have more deep-voice Gakupo instead? Most of his songs make him sound like a girl.

>>14881650
What quality is Hi-Trance Airline?

>>14967782
it's a good album for its genre. It's a compilation as well so you might find more producers you like if you're just now getting into vocaloid

>>14966689

What do they mean by "finding it for me"? Do they mean like searching download links on internet? Is it like a website that spoonfeed people who can't use google or am I missing on something?

>and I'm not there

Does anyone have any videos/playlists of Project Diva X gameplay featuring the modules that are supposed to be used for each song (ex. Mrs. Pumpkin with the actual Mrs. Pumpkin module and not Miku wearing some other costume)

I really want to see how the pvs look with the correct module used; so far I keep finding crappy videos on Youtube where the character/costume is different, and that just annoys me. Any links would be appreciated.

>>14971299
This channel looks pretty solid. Only did a brief skim though, not sure if it's got everything:

This will do for now, thank you very much.

New official yukari MMD model is pretty cute
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/1458388820

Anyone happen to know what frame rate the live shows are in? Hopefully a solid 60?

Is there a list of all Miku's costumes somewhere?

I've only got:
- Normal
- Lat
- Append

>>14972788
You just posted the cow one.

So what exactly does the card do? Something with the arcade game?

>>14974301

It's because you're using an Apple product to take the picture.

>>14974998
Anyone want to transode this into mp3 v0 or 320 for me?

New York might be good for a number of things, but prices are not one of them

>>14980972
Chicago was 140 for somewhat decent main floor tickets, non-vip.

>>14970332

Thank you for this! Hope that cute pianist is at the US shows...

>>14980972

Yeah, I got lucky finding flights into TX for about 100, not a bad deal to see a show that rarely comes to burgerland.

Satisfaction is so good, give me the full version or anything already.

Did some version of PDX come with a soundtrack? Contemplating buying the japanese version.

>tfw all of your favorite utaite are retiring or retired

why is life so terrible

How do you see the Vocaloid culture as a whole evolving in the next years / decade?

Will it grow? Will it die off? Will it stay more or less the same as it has been these past few years?

Go wild people.

>>14985489
grow
weebshit's getting more and more popular and becoming more and more socially accepted

>>14985489
Die. Producers work more with utaites now than vocaloids and songs are no longer as fun as just be friends.

>>14985489
Looks like a lot of the producers in Japan are slowing down or moving away from vocaloid like >>14985809 mentions. However we're starting to have both new producers and vocaloids popping up in other places of the world in all sorts of languages. I think in Japan people still use it because there's still new material coming out at the different types of *markets and *masters. I hope the very Japanese stuff like makina, denpa, and hteir vocaloid styles don't disappear.

TL:DR It's gonna get a more international scene, but completely Vocaloid producers are still going to be a niche thing

>>14985489
It's been reclining for a while. Most of the time a cover gets more views than the original. Hopefully something as big as kagepro comes up and shakes things up.

>>14985489
It will just change, as always.
Some producers will move on, the new ones will appear. Because of expos, there might be more western fans, but I doubt they will be dedicated enough to make producers care more about them.
The hype will probably decline, but it's far from dying off. It will take more than few years to die off completely.
Unless Crypton will come up with something unexpected so there will be some fresh air in the culture. In any case, everything depends on Miku's popularity. No one can take her place, if she will be forgotten, same thing will happen to all other vocaloids.

>>14985661
Assuming that's the case, why isn't the anime industry doing well?

http://strawpoll.me/7205648

>>14985489
It's going to grow and change. It's going to grow by getting more casual fans into Vocaloid. In 10-15 years, Miku will probably become a household name. The ideas of vocal synthesizing software being used in music will slowly become normal; normies will be okay with Miku.

Now with that being said, unless the Vocaloid software itself starts getting better and easier for more people to use, there's probably going to be less producers and less original songs gradually over time. As it is right now, you have to mess around with Vocaloid for a month minimum in order to figure out how to fix phonemes/mix voices/edit GEN and other factors. CFM or some other Vocaloid company needs to start putting out English resources for new producers and most importantly, they need to improve English singing synthesis. Engrish Miku can only go so far, and only die hard Miku fans even bother to use her.

Until the process for making songs becomes easier, Vocaloid culture will plateau. However, this does not mean "vocaloid is dead/going to die". In fact, it's quite the opposite. There will always be amateurs making songs. They might not get popular, they may never see a record deal, but those bedroom producers will always be making beginner songs with Miku/Gumi/IA etc. The culture itself has a had few dips and peaks, but it will never die off. There will always be somebody making Vocaloid music. It's up to you whether you choose to listen to them or not. The next ryo/mitchie-m has to start somewhere.

>>14979689
>was


god fucking fuck

>>14986991
Because the typical weeb can't understand Japanese without subtitles?

Grabbed yours yet?
should have had more songs but guess i will live

>>14989409
I'm going to wait a bit longer for it to hopefully bin or at least drop in price. Owata is one of my favorites but he's not the #1 on my list so this can wait.

>>14986038
>Looks like a lot of the producers in Japan are slowing down or moving away from vocaloid
It's depressing. Been following kous for his whole Vocaloid career and for two years now he hasn't done anything aside from feeding DECO and working with that new girl who doesn't have any talent producing things not even a quarter as good as what he used to do.

Same for ゆよゆっぺ. Story of Hope came out in 2012, can you guys picture it? Almost 4 freaking years since we had the announcement for it, and since then he hasn't done much. I mean sure he did a few good songs here and there but nothing major.

I don't have much hope for the future. I want 2009-2012 back.

>>14990514
Feel free to tell me to fuck off but since i am not sure where to look at any idea if the edgelord that made the whole 7 sins songs story is still working with vocaloid stuff?

>>14990644

>>14962131
I'm desperately looking for a song which I once heard and loved but I don't remember how it goes nor it's name.

The chorus is very quick and fast and all I remember is that it has a part which goes
>Mo itai mo itai somethingsomething-takeru

It's not
>Bacterial Contamination
>tai Atashi Ashita Aitai

From the /v/ thread.

>>14990853

Not sure this is the right thread to ask, but I just listened to Daydream Memorize from Marasy and I absolutely loved it. Are there other albums in the same genre that are worth checking out? Is there some kind of database where I can search for albums like this?

>>14976656
All the links on mikudb are V2, not V0

>>14990769
No problem. As stated in the OP go to mikudb if you want to download albums.

Thanks for doing that. I'm stuck in the hospital for the next week or so while I deal with a massive Crohn's Disease flare, and my phone is l I have with me, so I don't have enough space for flac.

Unrelated, is there a "must have" list of Yukari Yuzuki albums or works?

Still don't know how I feel about them being there.
To be honest I like a few of their songs, but they don't seem like a band that benefits from seeing live.

>>14997398
I listened to 2 of their songs and didn't like either of them. Which ones you recommend checking to see if I change my mind

>>14992718

Well looks like that death touch of Anaprisonsex has struck Texas as well.

>>14993432
Yes! That's it.
Thanks lad, I at first thought it was Lost One's Weeping but it didn't feel right.

>>14997421
Airbrushed, Power Supply, Blackout City, Cheap Shop

Guys what's the group song with almost all the female Vocaloids in it? It's upbeat, cheerful and colourful. Tried Mr Music, Connecting and Secret Time After School. It's 2AM and Im still trying to find this song.

Was just digging around on VocaDB for top rated songs. How do you guys download new releases posted only on Nico/YouTube? It came out on Easter.

The song in question is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v60qetF19Mc

>>15005271
Only way is downloading through Youtube or NND through some site or program. I use Freemake and it works great.

Great song btw.

>>15005376
I've used JDownloader 2 before but I'm not sure if it takes the file on the site or it rips it from the video. It's killer not listening to music at a decent quality, and sometimes those downloaders can mess it up.

>>15005376
>>15005376
I also use Freemake for NND. Though Freemake hasn't worked on Youtube for a little while now so I'm using cc.net for that.

>>15005389
Probably just rips it from the video. It's a shame about the quality, but most of the time I'm listening to music in my car with shitty speakers so it's not too bad.

Doing a quick google search shows that the last "official" concert apperance of haku/neru was during nico party event in 2013
any idea if they have appeared again elsewhere?
i understand that there are a billion implications when it comes to derivatives like them but would like to see them more

Speaking of which, do we have a list of producers/utaite who provide mp3 (or whatever format) files of their songs outside formal album releases?
I know spila links some mp3s of her covers on her blog (although some links are down), and a lot of producers post the original karaoke's on piapro. That's about as much as I know.

>>15005947
I just picked up Colateral's remixes on his tumblr, so I know people have them out there. It's just hard to find them.

>>15005426
>>15005376
If you're talking about Freemake's video downloader, I'm trying it out now, and my experience is the opposite. It works fine for youtube, but I can't get it to work for nicovideo. I've retyped my user/pass several times and I'm sure they're correct, but the software always gives a connection error.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/ down today? I haven't been able to access it.

It's got a ton of support in Japan and a pertty strong, but niche, following in the West.

i would've bought it if it were on itunes, but my amazon has issues so i downloaded it from mikudb

rip miku you had a good run

Can I get a 2nd opinion on what the meaning behind "Last Night Good Night" is?
I've always read it as a nostalgic feeling of a good time you had the other night with someone (maybe a group of friends) and during that night you knew you had to leave them in the morning.
Everyone around me is telling me it's about a longing for a romantic interest, guess I'm wrong.

>>15012087
Doesn't sound nostalgic too me, sounds tragic.

>overflowing tears, That are running down my cheeks
>I've hidden the heartrending, Throbs that are in this chest
>It'd be wonderful if I could, Spend morning with you once more
It's pretty much a lover's lament over their lost one

Also, the first chorus:
>Last night, Good night
>This night, I'll hold your, Hand tight and go to sleep
It's possible to assume that it's literally their last night together, holding hands, as her lover passes away.

Not sure if it's better to ask here or on /a/ but here goes...

I need some recommendations for my first Miku figure. I have $100 to spend, which isn't really a lot considering that there are some that go upwards of $300.

Please help anons ;_;

I don't own any, but I like greatest idol ver
and racing 2014.

Orange blossom is also still up for preorder, but it's a little out of your price range

Looking for "Kvold compilation works and EP. for Vomas20" please. The torrent doesn't have seeders anymore and despite it being labeled as mikudb the website doesn't have it archived.

Surely one of you oldfags have it?

That's it, thanks. Seems to be a remix. Weird that it uses statham, but OK. I guess I was expecting too much to see Miku on TV as well.

>>15015026
Bumping this as well

I bought the Limited Edition from CDJapan thinking it would have the Vocaloid songs, but it doesnt and that fucking TRIGGERS THE SHIT OUT OF ME (NO TAKING IT EASY).


I would pay 1$ for each lossless version of the vocaloid rendition songs instead of the Hanatan ones if anyone wishes to upload them.

Just got my copy today!

>>15015026
>>15019010
The bonus CD from Amazon.co,jp only has 3 songs in Vocaloid:

t03. 「光よ (Oh Light)」
t06. 「紙人形 (Paper Doll)」 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0h2y7WlaO8
t09. 「のぼれ! すすめ! 高い塔 (Climb! Advance! the High Tower)」 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDSZcv_b1NM

Sorry,I can't rip any CDs right now since my laptop doesn't have an optical drive. I'll see if I can find something useful later though

The store Animate also had a limited Vocaloid CD too. It has tracks 5 (Wolf Boy) and 8 (Urami no Waltz) but too bad they don't ship outside of Japan...

>>15019813
I'm jelly. CDJapan said my order would take 4-12 days, so I'm not optimistic.



I'll be keeping this thread alive in hopes of you potentially scanning the vocaloid tracks

>The store Animate also had a limited Vocaloid CD too. It has tracks 5 (Wolf Boy) and 8 (Urami no Waltz) but too bad they don't ship outside of Japan...


Had I known this, I wouldve ordered from there with a proxy.... WHY DID YOU MAKE THIS RELEASE SO CONFUSING KIKUO?

I'm an American music producer and would like to make some songs using the Hatsune Miku software. Does anyone have a link to a good crack of the vocaloid software and her voive pack? I wanna try it out before buying it, I promise to do right by her.

Hey all, posted this in one of the old expired threads but need help finding depressing love songs for a playlist, this is what I got so far:

Starduster - JimmyThumb-P
Unfragment - HSP
Momiji - Livetune
Last Night Good Night - Livetune
The Raingazer’s Song - 36g

Thanks!

>>15023391

Just added Star Story by Livetune. So if anyone has anything in mind I forgot to add as long as it's has a sad tone to it for instance HSP's Unfragment is techno but it sounds sad (sorry dunno the actual musical term) which is on my playlist but as much as Just Be Friends has obviously depressing lyrics it sounds way too upbeat which is why it's not on the list. Thanks!

>>15023908
Try AVtechno's stuff

Try kiichi's stuff

Try QUADROPHENIA's stuff

Try siinamotaP's stuff

>>15023391
>>15023908

saihate - kobayashi onyx
hoshi no meguri no waltz - GYARI
anti gravities - sasakure.uk
eight hundred - pinocchioP

>>15023973
saihate is probably one of the greatest classic vocaloid songs, and one of the saddest

>>15023973
For those who don't know that backstory to hoshi no meguri no waltz.
http://danbooru.donmai.us/pools/6069?page=1

>>15023391
idk if i have the same idea of sad-sounding songs lol but here are some you could try
reboot (jimmythumbP)
goodbye to a childhood friend (empathP)
crier (scop)
mirror flower, water moon (Mafumafu)
song of stars (buzzG)
flower of sorrow (oster)
namae no nai uta (daketen)
pierrot (kei)
reminiscence(Jun.A)
singing for yayin gongyu (純白P)

>>15023391
I don't know whether you'll find these depressing, especially since I don't bother understanding the lyrics and I save human covers over vocaloid versions, but here goes:

tsunamaru - usotsuki https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLZcsPYdRII
narry - angelite http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm21344468
40mp - torinoko city (probably not a love song) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6s2Pk_AySTU
papiyon - shinpakusuu #0822 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2PiY-5sTlE

There's probably some from Honeyworks, but I don't listen to their stuff as much so I'm not sure.

>>15025682
Forgot to add this one. It's slow and sounds sad, but again I wouldn't know if the lyrics would agree.

Thanks for your help, it's gonna take me a while to check all these so if anyone else has suggestions feel free to post them!

Regarding the "tone" of the songs I the ones in my playlists have a similar feel if that clarifies things somehow...

>tfw my town gets a B&N event

Here's to hoping I don't deal with too many teenagers. How many adults show up to these type of events?

>>15028217

I count as one which is why this will probably be the last time I go to a Miku Concert.

>>15028217
>How many adults show up to these type of events?

I count as one which is why this will probably be the last time I go to a Miku Concert even though I can pass for someone in their 20s. I'll still listen to vocaloid songs private but going to any more concerts is unlikely at the moment. I'm going to feel awkward this May at the concert...

>>15028217
Dear god those stickers look awful.

>>15028384
>feeling awkward about your age

Anon, unless you're pic related I think you'll be just fine.(and if you are pic related, please get a better hat for the next show) It's better that someone as mature as you will show up since I can guarantee there will be plenty of annoying teenagers or autistic/edgy teens.

I'm hoping I get to talk to interesting people while waiting in line.

>>15028496

Nah man, not THAT old although the concert I'm going to is two weeks after my... 36th B-day... Also definitely will not being wearing any silly hats heh. I'll be sporting some embellishments but they'll be very subtle, kinda figured "hey why not" since it'll be my last show surrounded by people half my age... yeah...

>>15028537
Are you dying of cancer or something like that? I hope it's not your last show because of your health.

>>15028593

Nah nah, just feel awkward surrounded by people much younger than myself.

>>15028651
Last year, I was surprised by the range of ages at my concert. Saw a gramps and quite a few dudes in their 30-40s, no one bats an eye. Majority will still be 16-20s though.

Anons, I have a stupid question.

Has anyone scanned the Graphics Volume 1 and 2 art/comic book? I was planning on buying them, but then I saw the prices, so now I'm thinking I'd be better off completing my Nendo Vocaloid set.

I'm bummed that there's no after party in Toronto, I wanted to shag a questionably aged cosplayer in a hotel afterwards.

what song is this?

https://youtu.be/91MX7NTkvwg?t=40s

is there anyone know where to get this?

i know the posibility is fat chance :(

I have one i'll sell to you for one hundred billion dollars.

>>15030260
Why would you want a record of that abomination of a song?

Anyone here like Iroha/Kyounosuke?
It's so hard to find Iroha original songs that are actually good, and Kyounosuke's covers are even more underground. Of course he has to be my all time favorite voice provider.

>>15031012
The info on the CD you could purchase from the pledgemusic drive called it syarning the world.

>>15031012
Lots of people collect vinyl because they're:

Hipsters
Fans of art, vinyl covers being larger than CD covers
Hipsters

>>15031977
It's an inherently flawed medium that's only still around so people can impress their guests. But I have to say, if I did have a record player already laying around, I would still love to have some of my favorite albums on vinyl. It just feels nice. It's like reading a book on a pdf versus reading a paperback in a hammock on a summers day.

This is too cute

>>15031012
just for collectible , i don't like that song too

i wish some producer release their album on LP records :^)

If you want to guarantee a pure model of your waifu you must do it yourself.

Surely a majority of you have heard Dead End. How does that make you feel or think, just with the progression of technology in our world as a whole? Miku will be deleted one day. Eager to hear thoughts.

Me too Anon. Vocaloid scene started to go to shit after it started to be more about the producers than about Miku.

>>15035144
Found it on CDJapan, ordered it with my copy of the new Kikuo album

I really only wanted it because it was produced by KOSMO KAT, who is one of my favorite doujin artists, all of his music sounds really good.

Do you have any links to this guy's vocaloid works?

I fucking hate the tumblresque comments on vocaloid videos these days, and n00b western song makers are such teen tryhards always attempting to shoe horn mental illness into their lyrics because they're all copying crusherP. Like fuck, if all you can express in your own music is standard anxiety/depression then hurry up and kill yourself. CreeP's music also sounds like if an obese edgelord stepped on an otamatone. CircusP's music is okay, at least his western pop stuff stood out to me, but the lyrics for Last Of Me sound like thinly veiled venting over Circrush.

>>15037080
I said MIRROR

Not MINOR

2deep4u?

New Kikuo album sucked dick.

Fuck Hanatan singing the lyrics

If kikuo doesnt release a vocaloid only version with all vocaloid songs, I'm never buying their music again. The past three albums were all totally mediocre, with the exception of 2 to 3 songs.

Tell me the slickest albums of Vocaloid out there that I should listen to. I really like most music made with it by I have no idea of names of the best musicians of it.

>>15037112
I hate this too, but what can you expect? Crypton marketed heavily towards teen weebs, understably their best chance to break into the western scene. In japan, vocaloid caught on with musicians who in turn saw a chance to attract audiences with miku's cuteness and popularity. However, most are not actually that interested in miku so much as promoting their own style of music, which lead to more variety in japanese vocaloid genres. Here, it's a bunch of teens with no real musical talent or vision who can only manage edm/trance because it's comparitively easy. And they have no real world experience yet, so all they know is how to be edgy.

>>15037171
Mikansei Eight Beats.

>>15037278
That's what I'm talking about. Anything else similiar to this? Or of some other kind of style but still of high quality.

>>15037171

Any genre, as far as it's good.

>>15037302

>>15037325

this is one of my favorite albums. its rock (western-influenced)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QT5-t-yP05Y

>>15037112
western fans tend to be underage and most underage are tumblrinas these days. As for crusher-p? what did you expect from a producer that throws a shit fit over not using their proper pronouns?

>>15037349
That's pretty nice.

>>15037171
Some of my favorites:

wowaka - Unhappy Refrain (math rock)
Giga-P & Orebanana-P - GigaBanana the Best (electro-pop)
otetsu - Carnival (rock)
kemu - Pandora VOXX (rock/hard rock)
wintermute - Stray Light (shoegaze)
Clean Tears - Reverberations (trance)

>>15037485
I already listened to that first one quite some time ago, it's pretty good. I'll listen to the other ones. But can that album really be defined as math rock? Doesn't seem much like it to me.

I didn't delve into cut-up, post-rock, rock, bossa nova, chiptune, etc. etc. yadda yadda lots of genres


I'll probably make another one later if people even use this one

>>15037547

I love using MSpaint

It makes me cringe when I see people still asking if P names are okay... (thankfully that's rare though)

>>15037112
>reading youtube comments
Why would you willingly subject yourself to that? That's almost as bad as signing up for tumblr.

And yes, 99.99% of Western producers could use some constructive criticism but of course that would be considered "bullying" and we can't harm our precious snowflakes now can we? :^)

In all seriousness though I'm trying to make Vocaloid music and to say it's terrible is an understatement. I have never used a DAW, never made an original song before so this is all new to me. Here's to hoping by the end of the year I can make a decent piano song that sounds somewhat okay. My biggest fear besides shitty bgm is that my lyrics will sound too "tryhard".Definitely not edgy, but it does have some cheese to it.

>>15037606
p just means producer

>>15037606
People shouldn't make up their own P names.

>>15037693
Some P names in the past were used as a means to an end for tagging, albeit a poor one

>>15037693
Westerners shouldn't make up their own P-names. (They don't do anything besides covers and maybe, MAYBE 1 or 2 originals)
Everyone else is fair game, provided that they earn it with a few original songs.

>>15037736
tell that to the spics who invaded the western scene

>>15037171

>>15037777
Napitas by Pulot is the best album out of all of these. Many of these suffer from repetitive sound among themselves, especially the Jrock genres.

That's not to say that these are not iconic albums of the early-mid Vocaloid scene, but many of these are not the best albums from individual artists.

>>15037801
>Napitas by Pulot is the best album out of all of these
Not even close! But that's the problem with making list with subjective content

>Many of these suffer from repetitive sound among themselves, especially the Jrock genres.

Provide examples

>That's not to say that these are not iconic albums of the early-mid Vocaloid scene, but many of these are not the best albums from individual artists.

Many on /jp/ have agreed the essential list needs a revamp/update but I havent really seen anyone put forth the effort into actually doing it

>>15037801
Funny, I was listening to this one a while back and thinking it didn't really have anything on the other post-rock albums on the list. Though you're right that jrock gets incredibly repetitive.

>>15037937
I have plenty of music that I discovered on my own and I am constantly discovering, downloading and purchasing additional music and albums every week, so I've had the time to see the entire scene evolve and change ; vocarock was NEVER good, and was always normalfag trash.


There's an old torrent floating around on nyaa with 900 individual tried and true classic songs from the early 2006-2008 vocaloid scene, songs that really encapsulate the essence of Vocaloid and Hatsune Miku. The picture is related, just a snapshot of some of the songs included in it (in romaji unfortunately)


It's absolutely true that there are some amazing vocarock songs such as melt or worlds end dancehall, but the amount of shit far outstrips the good

>examples
40mp
kemu
doriko
deco * 27
ryo
supercell


all vocatrash

I only collected and listened to their albums because the producers made respectful music, but its boring as crap



No one cares to make a new image because the scene is stagnating

>>15037993
Napitas is a very subtle album. It's subtlety could be compared to works (not in genre nor style, but in audio presentation) such as the Gymnopedie no. 3 by Erik Satie

It doesn't stand out because it wasn't designed to stand out when compared to the brazen blaring of jrock, vocarock, vocametal and other more emo inundated cultures, which is also why it is also very obscure.

>>15038028
Agreed there, it's ambient rock, not post rock, my bad. The problem isn't that it's subtle, it's that it lacks structure. It's all swells and repeated riffs. It doesn't commit to a melody, which makes it pleasant listening, but at the same time, very safe and formless. Not the fault of the album, but an inherent weakness of ambient music. Still a very good album, I revised my opinion upon relistening.

>>15038185
At the end of the day, it comes down to personal taste. Sometimes I prefer soft, synthesized melodies with Miku vocals tuned in an ethereal fashion, others I prefer more fast-paced and rough electronic Rin songs. Then on others I will go an listen to some pop, such as PENGUINS PROJECT or Chiquewa, or some deep Vocaloid house like ZANIO or relaxing Miku lounge music like Methusela. That's the beauty and the downside of Vocaloid; it's amazingly varied that its hard to establish similar tastes for many albums that fall out of the rock, metal, jazz genres. Miku, or musical deriatives WITHOUT vocaloids but still from the vocaloid scene (confusing) are each and all special snowflakes, no matter if it's my favorite album or yours.



I've listened to Napitas a lot. To claim it's formless isn't incorrect, it's just that the structure of the songs purposefully kept cloudier than say, classical sheet music for an orchestra. The structure itself is the lack of crescendos, vocals, and high-rises, replaced instead by imaginative and flavorful tones. It's meant to be like floating on a cloud, or slowly sinking to the bottom of a pond. You can't expect a lot of guitar solos, high-pitched miku singing, or actual straight-laced choruses in ambient music. It just goes with the flow, which is understandably why the whole ambient vocaloid genre is a niche within a niche, and its why Napitas didn't get much exposure as an album.

>>15038223
Sorry not lack of vocals, I meant lack of variety in the vocals*


Although I really like Napitas it's obvious that the Vocaloid tuning is not it's strongest point

Nice. It's so obvious I knew it had to exist.

>>15037118
Forgive me for being ignorant about the scene, but why do producers get human singers if they are more known for vocaloid content? Does having human singers sell more CDs? Or are they just saving themselves the time it takes to tune the vocaloid (wouldn't make sense if they do release a vocaloid version anyway)? There's probably a billion other valid reasons out there, but I'm just curious which ones are the actual motivation.

>>15043517
Honestly I have no clue but your guess of "it takes less time." seems to be the most logical.

I hate when Vocaloid producers do that, I've personally cancelled Cd pre-orders on Amazon JP if the producers throws in utaite covers/utaite originals in the tracklist. I'm buying the CD for their vocaloid original songs,not for some shrilling meat bag to take over.

Sorry about the mini rant, I just can't stand 99.99% of utaites. They are all terrible.

>>15043517
because once they are popular enough they want to become "real" musicians and move on from vocaloid. Most the time it sucks because i dont like the singers they end up using but there are some artists that dont forget their vocaloid fans and continue to produce vocaloid content as well.

>>15043876
I like to think that they're just degenerates like us who don't care for 3DPD.

Is it acceptable to post a cover I made of a vocaloid song here?

>>15044762
No.
No one cares about utaite.

Hello! I'm not from around here, but I thought there might be a place for this on this board. I'm looking for a vocaloid... thing. I don't know what you call it, but I vaguely remember the scenario. The video is really well animated, it features a bunch of poker cards, a king, and I think it has Miku in it dressed as a joker? I'm going nuts trying to find it.

>>15043517
When you have synth vocals in a full mix, it's a major pain in the ass to make the lyrics at least somewhat audible while not making the overall level of the vocals too loud or making the vocals sound very thin or making the whole mix have too much high frequency content, and ultimately you just have to set for some kind of a compromise between these options. When you have human vocals in a full mix, they already sound all right when you set them at the appropriate volume and then it's just a little bit of tweaking to make up for any flaws in the recording and to fit them in the mix well.

>>15044773
It's not what you'd expect of an utaite and I don't consider myself one.

>>15044781
Ah, never mind. I was able to find it by going into an old hard drive and importing an old backup of my browser history. The song was "Karakuri Pierrot", for anyone wondering.

Alice Human Sacrifice sounds bad but I still like it.

>>15044762
Yes, it is. Go ahead, anon.

>>15045043
Okay, here goes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I07b9CBUWeg

How's the 3DS Miku game?

I love the PDF games, but it seems to play pretty differently, and has more to do than just the rhythm game section.

Is it worth playing?

>>15045895
Project Mirai DX is great. The only downside (for me) are the nendoroid style the characters are done in, but you get used to it after a while. There are A LOT of songs, you can play them either in button mode or tap mode with varying levels of difficulty in each, and you can change the characters and the vocals in each song (vocals not in all songs though) so you can really play for a long time without getting bored. As a bonus, Gumi is in it too.

>>15045895
Why doesn't Miku dump the noodles next to the trash can by the sink? Does she really have to use the garbage disposal over a small noodle pile?

>>15047266
It's a cup ramen type of thing with a cap that has holes for draining out the water after. You can see sauce packet in her mouth. The cap fell off while she was draining the water and she lost her noodles heh.

>>15047328
That makes sense.
Poor clumsy miku!

>>15045895
The best part of the game for me are the songs themselves. However, the biggest flaw in my opinion is in the actual game play. Not having an "extreme mode" makes songs a breeze at medium difficulty and easy to learn after a few attempts at hard.

It's not like other PJ Diva games and not nearly as challenging which felt less rewarding to me.

>>15046505
There seems to be a lot to do/a lot of replay value, which is nice.

Ironically, the only nendo/chibi style character I don't like the design of is Miku herself - she looks kind of fat, in comparison to how all the other Vocaloids were chibi-fied a bit more evenly.

>>15047674
>The best part of the game for me are the songs themselves. However, the biggest flaw in my opinion is in the actual game play. Not having an "extreme mode" makes songs a breeze at medium difficulty and easy to learn after a few attempts at hard.

Eh, that's not much of a killer for me; the other game modes look fun, and I'm a sucker for dress-up stuff.

I'll probably pick it up when the price drops a bit. Thanks anons.

>>15045895
I don't find the button-style gameplay as enjoyable as the PD's. The static track is hard to follow sometimes, and the track also limits the creativity of note placement around the screen. I also think the note patterns in general aren't as creative as PD's, but that's pretty subjective, I guess.

The tap gameplay is a ton of fun, but the looseness of the tap detection means that a single stumble can ruin an entire bar's worth of notes, even if the rest of that bar was on point. You need to play more conservatively if you make a mistake to reset the detection, I've found. No mashing allowed.

Only a handful of songs have the equivalent of "Extreme", which is a bummer if you're the type that enjoys that difficulty.

The songs are all full versions, not necessarily a negative (I'll never forgive them for cutting the BEST PART of From Y to Y in the PD version), but if you're used to the shorter songs in PD, be prepared for the long haul with every song.

Still recommended if you're just hungry for more Vocaloid rhythm games. Despite all my whining, I've clocked 50+ hours into my copy of PDX. It's fun, has a ton of great songs, I enjoy the Nendo style, and it's got Gumi!

>>15048029
>Still recommended if you're just hungry for more Vocaloid rhythm games.
Pretty much this.

A lack of difficulty is a bit upsetting, but the game sounds worth it regardless. Also, Gumi!

Finally. I've been dying to see Cillia do some more work with the Kagamine's V4X. Great tuning.

Luka V2 has been my favorite for as long as I can remember but I must admit having never looked in any V4 songs because I couldn't really get myself to like her new voice. I'd like to give it a new try, could you guys post nice Luka V4 songs please?

Which Vocaloid has the most cancerous fanbase and why is it the kagamines?

>>15053760
I wouldn't put it that way. The most cancerous demographic are the crazy teen fans, and the crazy teen fans love the Kagamines. All fandoms have a few cancerous fans, but that shouldn't stop people from liking stuff.

>>15053760
If Kagamine are the worst, which one is the best? Let's see :

- GUMI fanbase is usually rather shallow, young and tasteless.
- IA fanbase has some pretentious dickheads with a minority of great people.
- Luka fanbase is usually quite mature, if I had to say something negative about it it'd be some weird artists obsessing about her and dumping trash fanart after trash fanart.
- Yukari fans are great all around I think.
- Kagamine fanbase indeed has a lot of cancerous people but they do have some great audiophiles among them too I feel
- Miku is probably too popular to really define the fanbase.
- Other male Vocaloids : trashier than Kagamine.
- Mayu fanbase has mostly mentally ill teenage girls.
- Lily bros are quiet and cool.

- Special mention to UTAU people : usually really trashy and terrible (see : people making terrible UTAUs and being obnoxious about it). Amazing UTAU artists around though, but the fanbase in that regard is very quiet.

Luka and Yukari are both my favorite so I may be biased.
Fite me.

>>15051434
If you're looking for some japanese 80's disco type songs, I think ATZ's Megane Disco is your best bet. unfortunately, I can't find any of his other works around.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZ5dhnJ7d10

>>15054068
As someone who only really likes project diva tier music, let me tell you my POV.

Gumi fans tend to be either people who were there to use her before miku, or people who want to be a little pretentious about their audio software.

Kaito fans are all fujos. All of them, zero exceptions.

IA is basically just new hotness, so if you were bored of miku and luka, IA is your shiny new toy. Make sure you tell everyone how she's better than anything else.

Luka fans tend to be house music/edm fans, since that's where her voice shines.

You nailed the kagamines, its all the ultra cancerous young teens. Mind you, complimenting rin cosplay has gotten me laid, though I was looking for the party van the whole time.

People who genuinely like miku, as opposed to "i thought she was the only one", tend to be people like me, who just prefer idol-ish pd music.

Special shoutout to people who make edgy horror music with vocaloids. Please kill yourself'ves.

>>15058274
So you literally fucked Rin?

>>15053832
>>15054068
Both of you have good points. The kagamines aren't my favorites at all and I think I have 10 songs max on my mp3 player for each of them (including duets). So maybe in a few years their fanbase will be less cancerous since the majority of fans would have gone through puberty. Or at least I hope that will be the case.

>>15058274
kek'd so hard at IA.

From my limited experience with a few Kaito fans, Kaito is split evenly among two distinct fanbases: 50/50 fujos or else fans who think "DAE think 2008 was the best time in Vocaloid music?". The latter is better to hang out with, but they start to get grating after awhile.

>>15059546
Yes, literally. It's like 30% of why I go to vocaloid events, they're full of insane rin cosplayers who will fuck you for the price of a hotel room, molly and attention.

I haven't even had a bite on the line from miku or luka cosplayers, which is a bit of a shame.

Luka cosplayers are always busty, ergo are used to getting attention, thus don't feel a need to fuck whoever is nice to them.
Miku cosplayers are a mixed bag, can't really pin down why I haven't been able to pin one down.

But there's almost always one rin.

>>15034992
You uploading this shit or what? It's gooood

>>15059798
>Luka cosplayers are always busty, ergo are used to getting attention, thus don't feel a need to fuck whoever is nice to them.
>Miku cosplayers are a mixed bag, can't really pin down why I haven't been able to pin one down.
>But there's almost always one rin.

lol Broke it down to a science.

>>15059798
I'm going to assume at this point that these rin cosplayers would be a 6/10 at best if they weren't wearing any cosplay. Or else those cosplayers are just truly insane and/or love money.

>>15060176
Well most rin cosplayers are smaller, so there's no whales.

Once you eliminate fatties from the equation, pretty much everyone is at least a 6.

Also, they aren't doing it for money. I'm not paying them for a hotel room, I just have a hotel room to fuck them in. I book hotels in cities I live in/near expressly because I expect to fuck a rin.

>>15060232
Humor us. Narrate the whole interaction between yourself at a show and a Rin about to fall victim.

Does anyone know as to what will be happening at the magical mirai this September?
http://magicalmirai.com/2016

>>15060308
Okay. To start off with, I'm a big guy. I'm in my mid to late twenties, I have a dad beard and I lift. I'm a little fat, but the first thing you'd notice about me is that I just look big. Basically, I look like the father figure they have issues with.

The key thing is to show up early, to scan the crowd, find a few rins and start narrowing them down. Any of them who came with a Len are out, because they're usually banging that Len. Then I look for ones that I feel nail the cosplay particularly well, as it usually indicates that they're nerdier and thus more vulnerable.

Once I've picked two or three I go up to one and compliment their cosplay. Point out the details. Talk about my favorite rin song, and then let them talk about theirs. The important thing is to seem really friendly, and therefore, safe. Not beta, just not windowless van. Things I'm looking for in the conversation are "does she live in town?" And "does she want to go to some sort of an after party?". The former because it means they aren't expected to travel back to their hometown that night, the latter because party is a nebulous term and they know it. If they're up to party, they're usually quite up to being offered drugs and alcohol.

This process usually narrows it down to one rin and at that point I ask for their number, because "I'm hosting an after party and it would be sweet if they would show up in character". I tell them I will contact them after the concert and so on.

After the concert I try to contact them once, usually "a bunch of us are going out for food and drinks before the party, want to come along?" It puts me on the hook for their food, but it also means I can sling them a crucial three shots of alcohol. This is the tipping point. I have never gotten a rin tipsy and not given her the tip, see.

After that it's a matter of enjoying the rest of the evening, sometimes just walking around the town and enjoying the sights, other times I get lucky and the weather is bad, giving us an excuse to get to shelter. I call a cab to the hotel, and if there's any doubt on her part I let her know I have party favours there. To ease her mind I usually give her 40 bucks for cab fare to leave whenever she wants.

They always, always always take the molly when offered, and from there it's about twenty minutes until the naked rin dancing.

I'm a nice guy though, its an enjoyable night for them, and they are on their way in the morning. I've taken a few of them out for breakfast though I always give a fake name because I'm married and I don't need that shit following me home.

>>15053760
Miku fans can be split into two groups, the "poser" crowd who knows next to nothing about Vocaloid, and the ones who just genuinely like Miku more than the rest. The latter group is cool, the first one not so much.

The loudest Rin and Len fans tend to be the obnoxious ones. If you ignore that, there are some really nice and talented (musically and artistically) fans, at least in my experience. Maybe I'm biased since they're my favorites.

Gumi fans are kinda salty in general over the lack of games and concerts, as well as her declining popularity I feel. The kind of music that's made with her usually (fast paced J-rock) also attracts some shallow fans, which doesn't help.

Luka fans are usually great, but a few are a bit snobby.

IA fans can act like IA is just the absolute best vocaloid of all time, and don't you try arguing with them over it. Most of them aren't that bad though.

Yukari fans are chill and tend to be more into Vocaloid as a whole, so they're nice to talk to. I haven't met too many of them though.

Kaito fans: fujoshis, yes.

Utau fans are just hipsters a lot of the time, although the people who are really into it are usually nice.

Guys I fucked up

>>15061593
Nice blog! Where can I subscribe?

>>15061510
I fucking hate Kaito's fujo fanbase. He's my favorite but I can't go to any song without something going "OMG *drools* LOL" or get pissed off that the duet he's singing with isn't Gakupo, Len, or himself

>>15062263
When I went to the new York show two years ago, the loudest, most annoying screams were for Len and kaito.

Just fujo trash reeing at the top of their lungs.

Also, if anyone in arms reach of me shouts out "notice me senpai", they're getting a smack.

>>15062442
If you're going to the Dallas show I'll be sure to say it :^)

>>15053760
>Miku
Simply too large to really narrow down. The most you can do is split it into "actual Miku fans" (generally cool people) and "Miku is the only Vocaloid I know" fans (annoying and quite the opposite)

>Luka
Generally pretty great fans, and not very in your face about itI may be biased, as a Lukafag

>Kagamines
Split between Len fujos, crazed young teens (who also fall into the "Rin and Len are the only Vocaloids we know sans Miku" club) and very few normal fans. They do have some good music and producers though.

>Kaito
Fujos and self-insert targets (ie: 'ohemgee I'm so like Miku I hope I have a Kaito one day squee' fucks).

>Gumi
Can be pretty annoying and way too vocal. Like the Kagamines, though, the few core fans can be pretty nice

>Meiko
Few and far inbetween, but generally pretty cool. More or less, they're Luka-tier fans who are even less vocal about it (in comparison to Kagamine fans, etc.)

>IA
The influx of new fans has been annoying, and a lot of them see her as the new hotness whereas Miku would be the old and busted. They can be pretty pretentious too. That said, she's got a small minority of good fans Although, like with Luka, I may be biased for her here

As for the less popular and less 'important',
>Lily and Yukari
Fine, fanwise
>Gakupo
Somehow they're even more degenerate fujo than the normal degenerate Kaito fujo.
>Mayu
Filled with the kind of crazed young teens as the Kagamines, but worse because of how small the fanbase is

>>15051974
She actually released another cover song on the same day too, if you missed that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0rcpDpcNgQ

>>15062554
Silly question, is that the official full version? No I don't mean her cover I just mean the song itself, since we've only had that mashup thing for a while.

>>15063201
Yup. This is the original (Miku) version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxGSZiEIwWo

Feels good to be a Miku/Yukari fan

>>15061593
Misunderstanding the prompt is a rookie mistake.
Talk to the TA beforehand about your outline beforehand if you aren't 100% sure.

>>15063265
What's the best Yukari album/set of songs? I know next to nothing about her

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yzJM2QqQQMq-xWTx7Vn5QEvqEPR7FMbl3hwJdDXB3lU/edit?usp=docslist_api

Toronto concert meetup document.

No one has really said if or when or where they want to meetup, so hopefully we are able to get our shit together in the next month.

>>15063265
I'm not a writer I just want to pass this English class ;~;

>>15063283
I probably posted this list before, but here's some great albums to start with:
Human beings were lead to this light by Taishi
トーキョー宇宙少年 by ヤヅキ
Hoshi no Daichi by man_boo
Tiny PaRadisE by kagomeP
A Place Where You Hope by Yokomin

A lot of albums like Nostalgic Diva by ねじ式 aren't primarily yukari albums, but have a couple great tracks featuring her.

There's also the 月の詩 and 月の響 series of compilation albums for yukari songs. Can't go wrong with those.

>>15061411
Oh wow. Sounds quite fun. Appreciate the narration!

>>15063334
Thanks anon. I'll look into it soe more. Yukari a cute

>>15063370
No worries. It's a hell of a good time, I just sort of wish the other vocaloid cosplayers would be as down.

Maybe this is my year when I see the Toronto show. Would love to score a miku.

>>15063409
I was with you until
>cheating on your wife

>>15063384
Yukari's got it all

>>15063424
It's a marriage of convenience, I know that sounds like the standard excuse but without blogging, just understand it to be true.

>>15063524
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, if only because at least you understand that no one wants to see blogposts.

Good job bagging those Rins, though

>>15061411
>>15063524
All the power to ya, but personally, this is not how I would want my relationships to pan out.

>>15063530
This is already blogposting

>>15063541
Yeah, I know it's not ideal, but I make do.

Things like this help a lot, honestly. If I wasn't able to bag cosplayers my outlook on life would be much more grim.

>>15063554
What time did people start to line up for the event last time you went? You do make a point now that i think about it. Once the show starts, there's zero talking after that point, opportunity window closed.

>>15063561
Around 11am for a 8pm show.

>>15031378
I've heard very very few songs from either of them but I love them intensely and want to find much more, do you have any recommendations senpai?

I was having a 3:30am breakdown and came here to cope
instead of cute synths there's some fat 40 year old pedo detailing how he preys on 3dpd cosplayers while cheating on his wife
I hope you choke the next time you listen to a kagamine song asshole

>>15064484
kek

Anon probably made that story up anyways.

>>15064484
You sound like a kagamine cosplayer.

It's not really predation, its just harvesting low hanging fruit.

>>15064484
Alright you big baby, miku's here to cheer you up.

>>15064587
If they're under 18 it's disgusting and anon should go to jail, no questions.
If they're over 18 (but even then 18-21 is still not quite a full adult) it's just kind of creepy. Especially when drugs get offered.

How about genuinely wanting to become somebody's boyfriend/girlfriend instead of getting a shitty one night stand? Serious question, if some anon just want sex why not hire a prostitute or buy a onahole?

Anon's story whether it's fake or real has left a bad taste in my mouth. I'm going to purposefully keep an eye out for any creeps like anon and call security if I see something going on.

>>15064663
16 is the age of consent in most places.

If you honestly don't understand no strings attached sex, then there's nothing I can really say to make you understand.

Good luck calling security on people chatting though.

>>15064779
16 is the age of consent when it's with somebody else near their age (16-18). Not for 40 y/o pedos.

Also, you would still be technically having sex with a child since children are not adults until they become 18. Good luck arguing that with the police.

>>15064813
Lol you must be aware that that isn't the law in every state.

>>15064813
>pedos


You keep using that word. I do not think you know what it means.

>>15064813
I've spotted the kagamine cosplayer.

There's no need to be sensitive, its not like people are tracking you down to rape you. Just don't go back to a strangers hotel room.

>>15064829
Lol you don't know how the law works period. You're caught with someone under 18, you're in jail no ifs/ands/or buts.

Stop trying to justify your shitty attempt of statutory rape. Go hire a prostitute instead of going after children.

>>15064813
>>15064853

I've never seen a more bitter virgin than you, even for /jp/

>>15064853

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_North_America

>>15064833
You know exactly what I mean. I don't care if it's attraction to teenagers, it's still disgusting and illegal. Use whatever word you want to use, it's still gross.
>>15064849
Not a cosplayer at all, I know I'm definitely not going to a strangers room but I'm still disgusted at that specific predator anon.

>>15064853
>You're caught with someone under 18, you're in jail no ifs/ands/or buts.

First of all, that's wrong and second of all >caught

baka

>>15064877
>it's still disgusting

opinion

>it's still gross.

opinion

You know neither the anons age, nor the age of the people he was with. You are arguing with less than nothing.

>>15064877
>predator
>being pretty clear about his intentions

You only get to pick one.

>>15064877
Why are you so angry about something that has nothing to do with you, by nobody you know?

>>15064885
Fair enough. If it was only with actual adults, I can't argue against that. But the way that anon was posting, he was heavily implying a teenager. If it was with actual adults, I apologize, if not, still disgusted

>opinion

don't care, still going to post it.

>>15064889
The anon made it seem that he was pretty clear but for all we know he could have been lying about that part. Also, think about this, what kind of person would willingly sleep with a poster from /jp/? Serious question.

>>15064899
>what kind of person. Would willingly sleep with /jp/

I thought I was quite clear on this: rin cosplayers.

>>15064893
Because I'm not dead on in the inside like most of /jp/. Also 3DPD is gross, 3DPD with questionable ages is especially gross.

>>15064899
>what kind of person would willingly sleep with a poster from /jp/?

Not everyone here is /r9k/ levels of lonely and bitter, dude.

>>15064914
I meant in terms of looking somewhat sexually attractive. Although having a good personality helps too.
>>15064912
I hope they were adults. I really hope so.

>>15064952
They were legal in the states I penetrated them in.

You know who gets really mad about young women having sex?

Older women.

>>15064971
Tis true. I nearly forgot.

>>15064968
legal =/= adult
If you were near that person's age, yes it's legal
If you were nowhere near that person's age it's statutory rape. You obviously do not work in the legal system.
>>15064971
The key word being "young women" and not "teenager"

>>15064997
Someone already posted the Wikipedia article proving you wrong.

Just sit down and take your meds, christmas cake onee-san.

>>15064968
What states?

>>15064997
can we please just move on?
take this to tumblr, I'm just here to talk about vocaloid

>>15065004
>wikipedia
>reliable

Wikipedia means nothing when anon is in the court room.

Why are some of you anons so retarded that you can't understand a simple concept? Don't have sex with minors. Minors means anyone under 18. If you have sex with a minor and you are nowhere near their age, if you are caught you will get arrested. State laws apply to people who are near their age range (ex. a 14 year old can have a sex with a 16 year old if the age of consent is 16 in whatever state)

>>15065021
This thread is on autosage, go to the new vocaloid thread if you want to talk about vocaloids. I'm here because I'll be damned dealing with creeps during my expo experience.

>>15064853
>>>/out/

>>15065035
I, for one, am not american, so your rules don't apply to me.

>>15065035
You don't honestly believe your own shit, do you?

Age of consent is the age of consent.

The Romeo and Juliet laws you reference are only applicable when someone is younger than the state age of consent.

>>15065055
If you're having sex with minors at American shows the laws still apply to you.

Also I figured I should copy and paste what Wikipedia says for age of consent since you anons seem so hellbent on insisting it's accurate.

Let's start with California since that was one of the locations for the 204 expo.

"In California, there is a crime of "Unlawful sexual intercourse", which is an act of sexual intercourse with a person under the age of 18 who is not the spouse of the person. (CA Penal Code § 261.5 (a))

The punishment is varied, depending on the ages of the perpetrator and the victim, and there are more severe penalties if there is a wider gap between the age of the perpetrator and the age of the victim:[25]

Any person who commits the crime with a minor not more than 3 years younger or older than the perpetrator is guilty of a misdemeanor. (CA Penal Code § 261.5 (b))
Any person who commits the crime with a minor who is more than 3 years younger than the perpetrator is guilty of a misdemeanor or a felony. A misdemeanor conviction is punished by imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding one year. A felony conviction is punished by imprisonment in a county jail for 16 months, or two or three years, or in the state prison, depending on the person's criminal history. (CA Penal Code § 261.5 (c))
Any person 21 years of age or older who commits the crime with a minor under 16 years of age is guilty of a misdemeanor or a felony. A misdemeanor conviction is punished by imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding one year. A felony conviction is punished by imprisonment in a county jail for two, three or four years, or in the state prison, depending on the person's criminal history. (CA Penal Code § 261.5 (d))
There are also civil sanctions possible for a violation stated above. (CA Penal Code § 261.5 (e))

Furthermore, any person who engages in sex acts with a person under the age of 14 and seven or more years younger than the perpetrator is guilty of aggravated sexual assault of a child. This crime is a felony, punishable by imprisonment in the state prison for a term of 15 years to life. Separate offenses, even with the same person are punished with consecutive sentences. (CA Penal Code § 269)

There are separate crimes for committing sodomy with minors. (CA Penal code § 286)

There are separate crimes for committing any lewd or lascivious act with a person under the age of 14. (CA Penal Code § 288)"

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_the_United_States#California

If that anon had sex in CA with a minor, what he did was 100% illegal.

Let me go read up on NY now.

>>15065076
tl;dr

>>15065076
Here's NY since that was the other location for the 2014 MikuExpo

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_the_United_States#New_York

"Sex with a person under 17 is a misdemeanor if the perpetrator is at least 16 (see infra). ("Sexual misconduct," NY Penal Law § 130.20.)
Sex with a person under 17 is a Class "E" felony if the perpetrator is at least 21. ("Rape in the third degree," NY Penal Law § 130.25; "Criminal sexual act in the third degree," NY Penal Law § 130.40.)
Sex with a person under 15 is a Class "D" violent felony if the perpetrator is at least 18. However, it is a defense to this charge if an 18-year-old perpetrator proves by a preponderance that he or she was less than four years older than the victim. This is not a defense to any other charge that might apply, i.e., Sexual misconduct, supra. ("Rape in the second degree," NY Penal Law § 130.30; "Criminal sexual act in the second degree," NY Penal Law § 130.45.)
Sex with a person under 13 is a Class "B" violent felony if the perpetrator is at least 18. ("Rape in the first degree," NY Penal Law § 130.35[4]; "Criminal sexual act in the first degree," NY Penal Law § 130.50[4].)
Sex with a person under 11 is a Class "B" violent felony if the perpetrator is at least 16. ("Rape in the first degree," NY Penal Law § 130.35[3]; "Criminal sexual act in the first degree," NY Penal Law § 130.50[3].)
"Sex," as used above, refers to the four conspicuous types of sexual acts, including "sexual intercourse", "oral sexual conduct" (both types), and "anal sexual conduct." The latter three acts were known by statute as "deviant sexual intercourse" prior to 2003.

Non-intercourse sexual activity is also regulated based on age. Non-intercourse sexual activity, called "sexual contact" is defined as "any touching of the sexual or other intimate parts of a person not married to the actor for the purpose of gratifying sexual desire of either party. It includes the touching of the actor by the victim, as well as the touching of the victim by the actor, whether directly or through clothing." (NY Penal Law § 130.00[3].) If the person is underage such "sexual contact" can constitute the crime of "sexual abuse."

"Sexual contact" with a person less than 17 but at least 14, by a perpetrator who is at least five years older than the victim is "Sexual abuse in the third degree," a class B misdemeanor. (NY Penal Law § 130.55.)
"Sexual contact" with a person less than 14 is "Sexual abuse in the second degree," a Class A misdemeanor, if the perpetrator is at least 16. (NY Penal Law § 130.60[2].)
"Sexual contact" with a person less than 11 is "Sexual abuse in the first degree," a class "D" violent felony, if the perpetrator is at least 16. (NY Penal Law § 130.65[3].)"

If anon banged a 17 y/o it's still legal but it's definitely in the grey area. Should his wife take him to court, he definitely would get arrested.

>>15065090
tl;dr: In CA if you have a sex with a minor and you are not near the minors age, you will be punished.

Really though, it's not that long to read.

>>15065076
There was never one indication that rinbanger had sex with a minor. Stop projecting your own fears on the situation. Granted, banging rin cosplayers for some sort of self-validation is pretty pathetic. Hope the next thread doesn't get this dereailed.

>>15065114
>17 is legal
>"17 is a grey area"

Your reading comprehension needs work.

>>15065117
That anon hinted it was a minor. Like I said, I'll fully apologize if it wasn't a minor but still it gets me worried.
Also that's why I'm posting here instead of the other thread. I do not wish to derail the other thread.

>>15065130
It's a grey area because you're cheating on your wife you retard. She takes you to court, you're fucked. I hope you do get caught just for your own stupidity.

>>15065161
Yeah, my wife won't be doing that.

We both fuck other people, and since you've derailed this thread with your impotent old lady rage, I guess I may as well blog about it now.

>>15065151
>but still it gets me worried.

>>15065035
>I'll be damned dealing with creeps during my expo experience.

>>15064952
>I hope they were adults. I really hope so.

Why do you take this so damn personally? Why is it about what *you* feel? Why do you even care?

>>15065173
Nope, you're lying. Here's proof from your previous posts.

>>15061411
>I always give a fake name because I'm married and I don't need that shit following me home.
>>15063524
It's a marriage of convenience, I know that sounds like the standard excuse but without blogging, just understand it to be true.

So which is it? Why do you hide it from your wife if supposedly she's fucking other people?

If you're going to write bait, at least keep your facts straight.

>>15065151
In all your posts, starting with the whole "muh mental breakdown", you sound like the worst of the tumblr crossboarders.

Regardless of ethics, morals, or legality 4chan is a place where you can say whatever you want - getting so moralfaggy over something that
>didn't happen to you
>might be fake, or not as you perceive it
is retarded

tl;dr
Accept where you are, or leave
