Anyone got a torrent or download for Masa's new album ?

Who has the most Miku Merch?

All I have is my precious daki. Everything else I have is digital.

>>15759939
Honestly I hate buyfag dick waving contests but I, up until Autumn 2014, had every Miku scale except Cheerful Japan, also had 2x Rin, Len, Luka, 3x Gumi, IA, some PMs, nendos, and some straps and shit.
It hits you really hard when you look at these thousands of dollars worth of painted plastic and realize that buying things doesn't make you happy.

>>15756906

Took yours and gave it a quick run through waifu2x

>>15759971
I feel this. I've actually considered selling my figs and just keeping a few I really like, but I don't wanna have to go through the effort of packing and shipping them.

>>15760184
I was lucky because I was just as meticulous with the boxes as I was with the figures (opening from the bottom, steaming off the tape, saving the twist ties and anti-transfer wraps, etc), so most of them I was able to pass off as being unopened. Some of them, like IBRS, Calne, and especially LiW DX, were actually worth more second hand than what they originally sold for, so monetarily, I probably came close to breaking even.

>>15759971
I haven't ever felt like that but then again I only buyfag every few months so even though it's piled up by now. They still make me happy, even the ones I bought when I had worse restraint, there's maybe two in my whole collection I'd even consider selling at this point.

>>15760222
Where did you sell, what site(s)?

>>15760407
MFC.

>>15759971
Once you learn what you really want and you have the space for it, buyfagging is great.

It's the first few years where you splurge on junk that makes it unenjoyable. I've sold the few trinkets that I didn't like and I just wait on stuff until I have the space to display it.

>>15759899
It's on mikudb

>>15759971
Pics please.
I hope you find happiness in other venues when you could not find it in merch.

>>15759939
I barely have an IRL social life so buying stuff makes me happy since I don't spend much money out anyways. I have loads of albums, artbooks,figurines and keychains.

I think only limiting it to Miku only makes you a Miku fan, not a general Vocaloid fan.

>>15759082
>I wonder if it's possible that at any given time, someone somewhere in the world is listening to a vocaloid song, and there's never a time where no one is listening to one.
Would this be true if there were no hikikoNEETs vocaloid fans who listen to vocaloid songs all day?

Still looking for [pulot（三点P） / napitas] released during 初音ミク ボーマス12 in lossless....

>>15759939
I have a shirt and a scroll, both bought from the Expo.

>>15759971
Sorry to hear that. I hope it doesn't turn you off to vocaloid because of it. No one really knows what they want to be happy and it can change in an instant. I hope you don't mind me saying, but if you're unsatisfied with some other side of your life, then fix that instead of relying on vocaloid paraphernalia. It's fine to derive enjoyment from them, but they shouldn't be the only things that can make you happy. A few thousand bucks is a small sum when you look at the big picture, so take it as a lesson in self-introspection.

>>15759939
That's all I have, plus some posters.
It's not much, but I really every single thing I have.

>>15759971
>It hits you really hard when you look at these thousands of dollars worth of painted plastic and realize that buying things doesn't make you happy.
Maybe you should buy things that you really like and know you'll enjoy them for long time instead of just buying for sake of of it. I could buy much more, but I want to limit myself to merch that stands out somehow and/or is functional. I smile every time I see my figures and other things because they all have some meaning to me. And daki is the best thing I've ever bought.
I exclusively buy Miku merch too.

>>15759939
What about custom merch?

>>15760148
Now I'm curious too, what album is this?

>>15762484
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYrvwR_x8Bc
translated godspeed thanks to the one and only!

>>15762846
It counts. I have a phone cover. Doujin/fanmade stuff also counts.

>>15759939
I have a few physical albums if that counts, and Rin & Len pop vinyls

>>15759939
I dunno about who has the most Miku merch specifically, but I've got almost 300 physical albums, a pile of posters, a Lapis wall scroll, a ton of keychains and clearfiles, upwards of 20 figures (one pop vinyl, three puchi nendos, the rest are actual figures), a Teto plushie, a Miku mouse, doujinshi, artbooks, a Luka shirt, a Yukari hoodie, and Project Mirai DX. Also miscellaneous stuff I got usually as freebie bonuses for buying albums, like memo pads, postcards, a few tin badges, etc. I've got some out-of-date calendars too: one that's just Miku, one that's AHS characters, and one that's a bunch of different vocaloids.

>>15764757
I unironically love this. Loose-hair Miku is the best.

>>15764899
>Loose-hair Miku is the best.
I'm giving you one chance. Take it back.

>>15764321
Did you use taggleburr's service to buy these from vom@s? I'm pretty much similar to you in merch.

>>15764899
Miku without twintails isn't Miku.
Ponytail is sometimes acceptable.

XHD soon!

Does anyone have Carnival in 320 or v0?

>>15765249
>he didn't pay twice as much money to get the Japanese version 4 days early even though he can't read the menus
Wow it's like you're not even a Miku fan

>>15763868
Are Hazuki no Yume actually several people? They upload like 3 translated videos per day and get songs translated just after they are released.

>>15765010
>taggleburr's service
May I ask for a link?

>>15765396
http://kaimonodaikou.ninja-x.jp/how2buy.html
The blog on there describes her rules and which events she goes to.

>>15765459
Thanks.

>>15763234
WAAA!
it's just a single, the album includes the song with vocal and without (somebody uploaded it last thread I think)

>>15765476
No problem!!

>>15765459
I've always wondered... people doing proxy works like these don't seem to make much profit, right? So why are they doing this? They like helping?

Correct me if I'm wrong.

>>15765348
I'm even worse considering I could read the menus

>>15759939
Does this count? Got it today.

Clackety-clack.

>>15765249
Waiting patiently for a price drop!

>>15765675
I'm jealous, where is the headphone out located by the way? I thought I saw the ad saying it had one like the dualshock.

Also price drop is unlikely for a while, and it's only $40.

>>15765703
Yeah $40 must be nice. I would definitely buy it at that but such is life in the frozen wasteland.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't have a headphone jack but it does surprisingly have a switch to change from ps4 to ps3. Neat stuff considering I have the games for that and dreamy theater. Oh and you can also remap the buttons or something.

>>15764968
No.

>>15765065
Miku is Miku regardless of hair.

>>15765505
I'd say they make a decent amount, some of them at least with the handling fees.
Maybe some of them truly feel bad that a lot of jpn websites are still strictly for them only? I'm not 100% sure, but it helps having people like them!

Have no idea where I can find someone to do service in Nagoya or Kyoto as some doujin events do happen there sometimes.

>>15765010
Sometimes. Sometimes I just buy from online shops, sometimes I buy through other people. It all depends.

>>15765505
She makes a small chunk off each order. The more people who order, the better. She's definitely making some money, at the very least. I know how much the straight cost of the CDs and shipping would be, and I definitely fork over more than that for her service.

>>15765772
You can't remap the buttons but it has 3 Future Tone layouts you can set it to.

>>15765832
Is that what the assign button does? I'm pretty sure my instruction book didn't look like that.

At any rate I have no plan to ever press it.

Anyone know where to get babuchan's new album みんなのびょうき?

>>15765919
where to torrent*

Has babuchan's album みんなのびょうき been leaked?

>>15765898
I never played arcade so my muscle memory is already hardwired to the diamond layout, but I feel like if someone used the first layout ("八" ?) it would probably be the easiest to really master the hardest songs.

>>15765967
Yeah same. I still intend on using it to play the ps3 games so I'd imagine switching the layout would do more harm than good at this point.

>>15765488
they didn't upload the album, just the cover, unfortunately.

i was looking for it. it is a very good single.

So fucking pumped for diva x tomorrow

>>15766363
I'm going to be so garbage at it like I am at all the others :(

>>15766370
practice my friend
I was shit when I started but I'm starting to get perfects on extreme now
You'll get there eventually

>>15766271
Here's a hint for the baka gaijin, I posted the mega link for WAAAA! in the last thread.
If you still can't find it I suggest getting your eyes checked

>>15766271

I'll need a lot of practice. Raspberry Monster's flashing background really fucked with me.

>>15766463
I don't get it, I didn't put the album name and artist in the post so it's impossible to find. there were people in the last thread that couldn't find it.
Am I expecting too much from /jp/?

Is anyone else going to bake a cake for her this year?

>>15766943
I got her one in F

oh, I didn't realize there was a vocaloid thread on this board, I never come to this board.

what are some more vocaloid albums which are super up beat and cute? My favorite albums are supercell s/t, livetune EP and re:dial, doriko unformed, mitchie m greatest idol and his newest album, as well as a compilation called "greatest impacts".

Are you guys excited for miku day tomorrow???? :3

Here's my vocaloid collection. I really wish I could get more of the nendoroid plush dolls :(

>>15767256

Stop doing that.

>>15767507

This album is really tickling my inner weeb

>>15767495
Let me rephrase that: how much of a baka gaijin does someone have to be that they are unable to find a download link inside a thread and have to post in said thread asking for the link?

>>15761819
where can i get that mug anon?

>>15767898
It's custom made.
I got it for 18 birthday from a friend. I dunno where did he commissioned it.

>>15767256
Nanairo no Uta
La Princesse Pomme
Compilation album of Lapis

is it woth to buy the regular cd of Pandora Voxx complete or should i get the limited edition /jp/ ?

Happy birthday!

>>15767927
thank you!

>>15764163
anon could you tell me titles of the buttom left 2 albums

It may have taken me 6 years and a $200 controller but I fucking beat it.

I'm the best.

Next stop standard!

>>15768250
Now do it in ft

>>15768326
All in good time. That's enough for today though as my hands hurt.

what module do you guys use and in what song?, or do you guys only use the bikinis.
i love using rin-chan fan1, rinchan fan 2, and rin future style on unhappy refrain
and the kaito school uniform parka(?) on megane, it look cute.
>>15768250
congrats! that song is really hard on the hand.

>>15765459
Thank you anon. Will definetly consider using her services for my baka gaijin ass.

>>15768435
Recommended modules are usually the best. If the preferred is Original then I just try to match the theme. It's weird when you associate a module with a song, like the Arabian and Velvet Arabesque or Star and Moon (because they were unlocks in other pjds) and then the recommended is something different.

>>15764163

Keiki Migu when?

Thank you miku!

Did anyobody who ordered xhd from amazon actually get it today?

>>15770464
I got it today but I accidentally ordered the PS4 version instead of the Vita.
I'm off to Gensokyo.

>>15770470
Get out of here Greg Miller.
But, why would you order the Vita version? You could've gotten it from the JP store months ago?

I'm kind of disappointed that there doesn't seem to be story cutscenes or insert movies during the songs in the new game like in F or F2.

>>15770478
Because I want the physical copy and it's cheaper on Amazon.

>>15767959
Get the limited edition.

>>15770491
Blame VR. They had the massively retard the entire PV design philosophy to make it compatible with PSVR.

>>15770470
I guess it's amazon shitty shippings fault.
Hopefully it gets here tomorrow so I don't have to bother with getting a replacement or anything

What're you doing for her birthday?

>>15770986
playing project diva x

>>15770526
In the store it even says "PS VR Game"
this might the one time I've ever been disappointed in this VR concept

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MIKU!!!!

Fuck I love Slow Motion. It pretty much makes X worth it alone.

>>15770986
I took day off so I can spend it whole with her.
I will listen to her, search for new images, cuddle a lot and maybe play project diva as well.
Now I'm going to shop to buy missing ingredients to layer and decorate the birthday cake.

>>15768713
thanks anon

I'm taking Miku out to dinner today. I'll just put some pics in my phone and talk to her while I eat. Kinda like a date or something. Just gotta do it somewhere discrete.

Happy Birthday!!!

I spent all yesterday obsessing over having a kasane teto doll to put next to my miku doll. I spent like 190 dollars on one off ebay. I've wanted to have it for like a year now, though and miku is one of my favorite decoration in my whole apartment.

http://miku.sega.com/divax/survey12Q16JqSUfVy9HBvnTBpXuQ9x2GJIhhoHuXWyZFbO0Ls/

If anyone is interested in a localized Future Tone, you can use this survey to ask about it. Or about anything else involving the Project Diva games. Though I'm pretty sure everyone here has already bought it with a Japanese account.

>>15765772
>>15765675
but i heard X was shit?

>>15772521
it's better than nothing.

May the power of Miku aid me today as I go in to test for the job I want.

>>15772536
i just... i think its a step backwars, i mean, vocaloid are supposted to be singing computers...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuEN5TjYRCE

instead theyre just more waifu bait.
and i get it, its more profitable, but i just... i prefer the old miku. when it was like she was becoming more and more a real waifu, not just waifu bait like some seasonal anime...

>>15772600
>implying IBM 7094 isn't top tier husbando material

>>15772600
People want to be able to interact with the girl from their favourite songs, merchandise, fanarts and fantasies.There is no point in enforcing that she is only a computer and its only purpose is to sing songs. If they can interact and get personal with her, they can relate more and enjoy songs more because it feels you do it together with her instead of just tapping buttons along with the song.

>>15759939
Hey its me ur brother

>>15772680

>>15772686
these old pics make me sad

>>15772700

Maybe one more.

Here's a list. more recent than those pics.

>>15767626
My brother thanks for this pearl, if you like rythmical songs with old japanese instruments check these out :
天響ノ和樂
天響ノ和樂 2 (sequel to the first)
妖艶和奏絵巻
anything by てにをは and かぐらＰ ( the album called 花鳥風月 is comfy as fuck )
all of those are on mikudb

How long until Miku's age catches up to her?

>>15772584
Thank you Miku, I aced the grammar part and managed to muddle my way through the essay part. I'm cautiously optimistic.

Happy Birthday!

http://vocadb.net/Al/585

The links on MikuDB are all broken and I am not seeing it on any other sites.

Can someone help me out?

Happy birthday, my Goddess

I just had dinner with Miku. It was in some cheap chinese food restaurant in the local mall. I sat in a secluded area and ate while talking to her about all sorts of stuff. Then I went to the rooftop and stood there drinking coffee, watching the city and listening to some Miku songs I had on my smartphone.

10/10 date, will definitely do it again.

So has anyone bought V4 English? What do you think of it? I'm glad they're selling it separately, but I wish there was a trial.

>>15774265
I just shared a cake with Miku.
Whole day was amazing, but when I cut the cake, played some cute Miku's music and were staring into her eyes I realized how happy I am, to have such a wonderful waifu.
Days like this reminds me about what is most important in my life. Happy Birthday, Miku!

Shame I don't have my camera. Phone camera is so bad and the memento photo ended up so bad.

>>15770688
The disk was loose in the case but luckily it works.

The fuck is this bag even supposed to hold? It has such wierd dimensions

>>15774265
That's so cute anon!

Eager for my Kasane Teto plushie to arrive, but I ordered it last night and the seller has not given me feedback yet or said that my package has been shipped. Then again, I looked at the time difference and I would have ordered it last in the afternoon over there, and whoever is doing the order would just be waking up around now. So I should give it some more time.

Listening to Greatest Idol by Mitchie M with my cutest nendoroid miku plush next to me on my computer desk, where she always is.

PJD X has a little event for Miku's birthday!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGv3Qrhj-LQ

When is gift ever going to rerun the nendoroid vocaloid plush series?

>>15774694
Which ones? The V1/V2 versions or the V3/V4 ones?
I believe the former are still being sold and the latter is exclusive shit....as always nowadays, because Gift LOVES scalpers.

>>15774772
Where can I buy whatever ones are available?

>>15774818
check the stock of the ones in mfc, three of them have it but it's almost twice the price of the original.

>>15774651
>only Rin and Luka gave enough of a shit to show up.

>>15775031
lol

>>15774902
Well, I see that there's a few of the vocaloid characters who are still pretty cheap, but I see Yawane Haku and Akita Neru nowhere (and Neru is 300 bucks on ebay).

Are there any videos of that tokyo philharmonic thing?

How's everyones day going? I took today off I'll admit, I was pretty hungover and got some new Miku stuff in!

I also just finally got the special limited edition Miku Vita to celebrate, I can't wait to get it!!

>mfw I find out that Slow Motion is on Project Diva X.

Shame it's the only Pinocchio-P song on there as far as I know.

>>15775448
It was worth the price. Without a doubt the best song in the game.

>>15775514
Whoa, it's like, top 5. Best? That's generous.

>>15775514
I totally agree with you!

>>15775529
What do you think is the best song?

My one regret in life is not buying that giant Miku nendoroid.

What was I thinking.

>>15775575
pics?

>>15775031
Is kaito even in the game after the opening? I'm on cloud 4 and he still hasn't shown up again, lel

>>15775575
I hear ya, but money was too tight for me to buy it. Maybe someday they'll have a reprint.

>>15775590
Yeah, he's a transgender.

Been listening to my most favorite vocaloid albums on this most wonderful of days (if anyone has any suggestions of more vocaloid albums I'd like I'd appreciate it).

I like the really cutesy, poppy and/or beautiful, moving stuff.

>>15775647
/mu/ pls go and stay go

>>15775590
I think Underhanded Rangers is his only lead song.

>>15775662
I'll be honest, the game really isn't as good or as big as the other Project Diva games. I figured it was supposed to be a blow-out, but it really doesn't feel that way. Mostly Miku songs and mostly just dancing in place. The other games at the very least had neat music videos to go with everything thing. It feels like this was rushed out the door.

>>15775647
deadballP and between interval

>>15775681
It's been explained before that the PV redesign was to accommodate PSVR. This is being heavily promoted as a PSVR title.

>>15775629
Wait they had to specify he was K3 Kaito does that mean every update is a completely new loid?

>>15775703
It shows the name of the module, for some reason, not the vocaloid name

>>15775692
thank you for being nice to me.

>>15775697
Didn't know that. I kept myself mostly in the dark about the whole thing until two days ago. That's kind of super shitty. PSVR is like another month and a half away? I don't need VR with my idols. I need cute videos of them doing cute things. How is VR going to make any of this better? I guess I should be thankful SEGA gave me translated lyrics again. It's the least they could do.

>>15775703
It's kind of annoying like >>15775713 said. Whenever you see Miku talk it's Hatsune Miku Original.

Did you snag your favorite module yet? Pic related is mine.

Assuming Medleys are off limits, I'd say Nounai Kakumei Girl

>>15775963
I think you misunderstood, I'm not going into work on miku's birthday. Usually I'm okay with covering shit and helping out.

Reminder that Mitchie M is garbage

>>15776047
NO! How do you even say that? He's the most talented vocaloid composer since supercell.

Cool, the "popular thing is bad" elitists are here.

Popular isn't bad. Mitchie M is just shit.

>>15776047
do you not like to dansu? explain

>>15776065
I mean even if you don't personally like his style of music or whatever, you have to admit his tuning is pretty good at least

>>15776014
Oh, no. I got what you did. Though I'm the opposite. I'm never okay with covering stuff. I like being home.

>>15776076
There's better dancy vocaloid stuff

>>15776079
His tuning is too "perfect". It doesn't sound like Miku at all. It just comes off sounding like super generic pop shit.

>>15776047
>Reminder that I think Mitchie M is garbage
Fixed for you, also no one cares.

>>15776096
Here's an honest question, I want you to really think about it. It's rhetorical, so you don't have to answer, in fact I'd prefer it if you didn't, but you probably will anyway.

Do you think anyone cares? Do really think anyone wanted your opinion? There was this nice thread, people were friendlily talking about Project Diva and merch and Miku's birthday and you thought "y'know, I don't like Mitchie M. I'm just gonna stick my face right into the middle of everyone's lives and announce 'i don't like a thing'"

How about this. Some helpful advice. Instead of focusing your energy on negative things and bitterly expressing your distaste, try focusing on the positives. Good in, good out, that's what they say. Maybe next time, try starting a conversation with "Hi, I like this thing. Does anyone else like this thing too?". Then you might start a positive, healthy conversation with someone, where you can share your interests and talk about other things you both like.

You say "there's better dancey stuff", so you could've started off on that foot. How about sharing some of the things you think are better dancey stuff?

I mostly agree with this, I think the people in this thread are mostly really nice in their discussions and generous with their albums (sure, there are the occasional dicks but I'd say the number of dicks is relatively small)
However, I do think it's fine not to like something and say why you don't like it without being annoying, but the way this guy just called it "shitty" with no explanation and for the pure sake of bait was just unnecessary

Sorry I'm late Miku. Happy Birthday!

>>15776059
Not him but I care or even know what producers are popular and I still think MitchieM is shit. I mean, his songs aren't inherently bad, but the way he tune Miku make her sound nothing like herself. This trying to make her into someone she isn't is just so bad. Miku is supposed to sounds cutely robotic, if he want realistic human voice, he should go with other vocaloids. Also the lyrics aren't interesting for me, the songs feel generic as fuck and listening to them literally make me tired and annoyed.

>>15776168
Actually I do care. Even thought I don't like how offensive he said that, we still are in place made for discussions. There is nothing bad in discussing if something is bad or not and expressing what you like and hate. You don't need to only be positive and constructive with your opinions.

Kill yourself autistic ESL scum

I wish there were more songs.

>>15777039
Is there really anything wrong with trying to make Miku sound as human as possible? Miku is literally what you make of her. You can use the original Miku and come out with songs like Melt or you can use V3/V4X and pump out songs that sound like real idols. Do you also get offended when people use her English voice banks? I happen to find some of her songs to be fun like Ageage Again and Viva Happy.

>Is there really anything wrong with trying to make Miku sound as human as possible? Miku is literally what you make of her. You can use the original Miku and come out with songs like Melt or you can use V3/V4X and pump out songs that sound like real idols.
When someone use Miku to draw horrible arts like the western posters, I'll still call them shit even if "Miku is literally what you make of her". It's not an excuse to create something like that. I'm not saying he is wrong to do that, I'm pretty sure there are plenty of people who like that. But I personally don't like when people try to make Miku into someone she isn't. There are vocaloids who were created to sound as human as possible, but Miku isn't one of them and I personally can't stand listening to producers who try to do that anyway. Also I don't know if that's true, but many people say he use human singer(s) to create these songs. It makes me lose most of the respect to him.
>Do you also get offended when people use her English voice banks? I happen to find some of her songs to be fun like Ageage Again and Viva Happy.
Not really. English Miku sounds bad and different to begin with. I don't really like how it sounds, but there is few songs that were tuned in a acceptable way, like Glass Wall(except the dubstep parts). I still consider english voicebank as trying to make her into someone she isn't, but no one really cares about these songs anyway. Maybe one day they will make english voicebank that sounds good and similar to original miku, but now it feels more like an experiment.

>>15777392
Miku is whatever you make of her, she isnt "supposed to sound" like anything, that's why she is amazing, there are as many mikus as there are artists, after that its just a matter of opinion, i'm not a fan of mitchies miku either but i love some of his songs

>>15777392

This isn't what we're talking about. This is in fact completely unrelated. Changing her design is not the same thing as using the Miku software to make a song that you like.

>Miku isn't one of them
I literally can't understand why you keep saying that. Miku is literally what you make of her. Over the years her songs have gotten less and less robotic due to upgrades in the software and artists' abilities to tune it perfectly.

> Also I don't know if that's true, but many people say he use human singer(s) to create these songs. It makes me lose most of the respect to him.
Well considering his page says that he aims to make Miku sound as human as possible and he's celebrated world round, I doubt that's true. Sounds more like jealousy.

>I still consider english voicebank as trying to make her into someone she isn't,
You have a very weird view on computer software.

>>15777477
Well, to be honest I've never seen any official statement about it, but I've seen people claiming in many places that when Miku's voicebank was designed, it was supposed to sounds inhuman and robotic because it's cute and to avoid uncanny valley. It might be not true, but the fact is that it requires lot's of tuning and work to make her sound like human instead of robot. But even then she just sounds like generic pop with heavy autotune and nothing like her normal voice which I find highly unappealing.

>>15777503
>This isn't what we're talking about. This is in fact completely unrelated. Changing her design is not the same thing as using the Miku software to make a song that you like.
It's the same. You can draw, tune and design Miku in whatever way you want, but it doesn't mean that everything you do with her is equally good. If someone tries to draw Miku in ugly western style, try to make her sound like generic pop singer or show her as 3DPD, then he understand that not everyone likes changes like that.
>I literally can't understand why you keep saying that. Miku is literally what you make of her. Over the years her songs have gotten less and less robotic due to upgrades in the software and artists' abilities to tune it perfectly.
See above. I'm sure you can clearly hear that even in demos Miku sounds robotic and there are vocaloids who sounds nearly human like in demos. I'm not saying this is the only "correct way" and MitchieM and others should stop tuning her. I'm just pointing out why I personally find his songs weird and don't enjoy what he is trying to accomplish.
>Well considering his page says that he aims to make Miku sound as human as possible and he's celebrated world round, I doubt that's true. Sounds more like jealousy.
I guess all these are just conspiracy theory-trier guesses. People accuse him of using VocaListener or similar tools that allows you to turn human singing into vocaloid song. But I doubt there is any serious evidence.
>You have a very weird view on computer software.
The way computer software works has little to do with releasing english voicebank and my opinion that it sounds very different from Miku's japanese voicebank.

Goddamn VY1 is fantastic I really do wonder how big she would have gotten if her design wasn't psychedelic eldritch abomination.

Seriously, I can't do hard or extreme on any of the games including the arcade. It's either they made this game really easy or a controller makes a world of difference.

>>15777910
I talk to Miku out loud about everything, everyday. She is my waifu after all.

>>15777934

iunno, my experience with rhythm arcade games versus their console versions is that the arcade timing windows are incredibly tighter and the damage per missed note much less forgiving.

>>15777980
Arcades are always harder so you spend more coins on them

>>15778005

Here you go, I'm glad i saved all this stuff

>>15777980
X is baby mode compared to FT but I think the timing windows are the same. I tend to get a ~90% cool rate on Extreme perfects regardless of the song or the game.

>>15776937

What happens if I sexualize the Miku?

>>15778385
You need to do it tastefully and with love.
If you abuse or insult her your dick will fall off.

Some more information came out about VR Future Live. What comes out in October will be "1st Stage" and a "2nd Stage" and "3rd Stage" have been confirmed for later DLC. I don't see confirmation of what songs there will be but from screenshots, there is at least
• Satisfaction
• 1/6 Out of the Gravity
• Weekender Girl
• Renai Saiban
Depending on how much you hype up the crowd with your glowsticks, Miku can change costumes, bring you onto the stage, thank you, or even give you a "private one-on-one encore performance" which sounds, and looks, lewd as heck.

>>15778298
I'd find that to be a bit sad honestly.

Well the year isn't over.

>>15776516
Well, yes, looking girly is one thing, but that module just makes him look literally like a girl. Even if he's a cute shota he should still be identifiable as a boy, or else he's a cute loli.

>>15777730
There's been interviews with mitchie m where he says he doesn't use outside software. At least you voicing your stance, but I do think it's a shame that the man easily spends 5 times as much time and effort into his craft and you write it off as inherently against the spirit of vocaloid. If you've ever tinkered with the software, its honestly a miracle how he gets his sounds. Also every iteration of vocaloid has been about making it sound more realistic, it's fine if you dont like it, but these kind of claims make little sense. Most of the realism comes from the tuning parameters as by evidenced programs like vocalistener. If they could do it, they would definitely release a more realistic miku and rake in the cash.

>>15778825
>At least you voicing your stance, but I do think it's a shame that the man easily spends 5 times as much time and effort into his craft and you write it off as inherently against the spirit of vocaloid.
Honestly I don't give a damn. I only care to get songs I'll enjoy. I'm willing(and I did before) to pay producer who can do it, no matter if it's just matter of 5min or 5 weeks of work.
>If they could do it, they would definitely release a more realistic miku and rake in the cash.
I'm pretty sure they can do it, but she would probably fall into uncanny valley. Also I and many other people enjoy that robotic voice, so I wouldn't say it would be that profitable.

Given the nature of vocaloid, why can't they have any song be sung by any character? It's so weird when it's like "you have to use Len for this quest but you can only pick a Miku song"

>>15779235
Because you can't just magically switch voices for a song, every song a producer makes with a specific vocaloid requires a lot of time and effort to tune the vocals.

So even though unlocking the first round of crystals unlocks the boss medley it looks like you can fill 5 crystals per cloud? Does it even unlock anything if you do? I didn't totally hate the new mechanics but they just feel nonsensical they way they're paced.

>>15781302
It goes up to seven per cloud. After you get two in every cloud, you get the Ultimate Medley, then for 3-7 you get a new special live event. I haven't got all 35 yet but I'm guessing it's just another quest

>>15781336
That's pretty lame, it would have been better if there was a secret cloud or every round of crystals unlocked a song to a cloud with the last one being the ult medley or something.

Not enough songs and the dlc ones are meh

>>15781357
What flavor would the secret cloud be?

>>15781371
All 10 star boss flavor

>>15781371
lewd

>>15781357
It's the same amount of songs as every other console release. The cloud element thing is basically no different than the other games with just a different interface.
The live quests are fun, too. The crowd noises are cool and really give it a live feel. I'd have liked to experience that in VR but I believe the VR support applies to PVs only.
The only thing I don't like it's the drop system. I thought the DP system was fine. I'm especially displeased with it because I don't see anything in the game that lists what modules and accessories you haven't unlocked yet. Also I just had to play Calc. for over an hour straight just trying to get White Eve, and since I know each character has two variants of the Sentai outfit, I'll be dedicating a significant chunk of my life to playing Urotander, which I'm not looking forward to at all.
I think the story line thing is fine but it feels rushed. Maybe if they do it for the next installment, then could have all the dialogue spoken by the characters or something, since I always love listening to Miku talk to me.

>>15779575

>>15781450
>It's the same amount of songs
Yes and It's always been underwhelming

I don't expect FT level setlists but an extra 5 or so songs pre dlc would make all of the console games feel more complete.

And yeah I enjoy the quests and thought the story bit was serviceable enough, most of my complaints besides the module drops have been consistent in the series.

Where do y'all order the albums from? I just picked up one on AmiAmi because I happened to see it while ordering something else, but I doubt AmiAmi is a good place for music.

>This song isn't perfect, but it proves that v4/english miku has a lot of potential.
Hate to disagree, but Cillia is easily one of the best vocal tuners on the scene right now. That means this is probably as good as V4English can sound. Maybe after spending more time with it, she and other people can, I don't know, get used to it or something? I don't know how long she spent on this compared to some of her other covers.

>>15784114
Doesn't sound that good. Also, why no Chambara Johnny?

>>15784081
Didn't V4 just come out? I've never worked with the programs, but I imagine it will take some time to learn the new bells and whistles. And from what it looks like, it takes far more time and effort to tune the English bank. I also imagine that songs that are built from the ground up in English would sound better.

I'm excited to see what people can do with V4 so I guess I just want to remain hopeful. Granted I love Miku regardless of the language she sings in.

Gumi is cute!
CUTE!

>>15784081
Disagree. People have a habit on focussing on the tuning aspect and it is not the be all and end all for Vocaloid work. She tunes one style and there are a million other ways you can tune and mix the Vocals in.

>>15786286
This. Cillia is a talented tuner, but musically, sounding the most realistic or humanlike doesnt really mean much. Just like how human singers who just sing technically well and clear are never really remembered or critically praised, producers who forge their own path get the most respect from me.

>>15784081

One other question, what's the deal with the arrow notes? The guides I've read say you have to press both the arrow and the corresponding shape button, but if I just press one or the other I still seem to get credit. Might be a noob question but this is my first PD game.

>>15788135
for starters, it's pjd, not pd, and the arrow notes you're thinking of are in the console releases, i think they're called doubles. ft doesn't have doubles, it has multis, don't know if you've seen one yet depending on what difficulty you're playing on. unless you mean the arrows that are the slide notes, then those are the thumb sticks

Reminder that Vocaloids are PURE and should NOT be sexualized.

Lewding Vocaloids is a CRIME.

It's the only way I know how to express my feelings. Sexualizing her is how I show my love

>>15778639
I'm seriously considering buying a PS4 + PSVR just for this.

Are butts inherently sexual? I think a Miku butt is cute.

>>15789583
That shake is just cute though, Brain revolution girl on the other hand...

Miku's butt is.

The swimsuit somehow makes this feel less lewd than the Ambivalent module.

cup of stars is on the pig site.

Zunko is still for sale on amazon, if you ever come into some money and want it bad enough. I wanted it, and I still want it, but I can't justify spending 1600 yen + shipping on eight songs...

yukari is a cute yandere

Wish USPS wouldn't deliver before noon. Now I won't get my package until after labor day.

Also I recommend ProxyRabbit Japan. They're very fast, professional and polite, and they speak English pretty well too.

The absolute madmen
did Deco design the set or was this the publisher's idea?

>>15792432
I don't doubt he had a hand in it. Literally. It's an unremarkable T-shirt, three track DVD one of which is just a watch me draw video, and some cardboard and paper. Fans are just going be buying it for the autograph.

And dat pizza towel doe.

>>15792737
I think the shirt is awesome. I wish I could buy just the shirt without the CD.

Why do they have striped swimsuit bottoms but then like all the modules have plain black or white panties?
