/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Remember to buy something for your waifu for Valentines before it gets too late.

Vocaloseasons Winter got uploaded on Hikarinoakari, if someone is interested: https://youtu.be/PSwM8GpUM3o

Dammit Yukari, I think you killed the thread too hard.

Anyways, I have a favour to ask. You might actually benefit from it! I'm trying iTunes Match, the service from Apple that makes it possible to launder pirated songs. So far, it recognised around 40% of my VOCALOID library and I replaced the ripped songs for original songs from the iTunes Store. What I need you to try is the following song (Koa, from PinocchioP):

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ht3fu4A6cAtoQ6YM6Dj2oUbYkvjFI-NY

What I need to know is:
- Does it work with any player?
- Does it includes any ID3 tag that can be traced back to me?

If they work anywhere and there is no DRM traces on it, I might upload some albums with the quality of original albums, if you like. Don't forget to support the artists if there's something that you like much though.

>>18393681
Oh and if any of you music magicians wants to analyze the quality compared to a ripped copy, feel free to do so. I’m curious about that as well.

>>18393681
ID3 looks alright, plays in mpv.

>>18393883
Nice to hear. As far as I know, the following artists have their albums uploaded to iTunes Europe (meaning I can get them "for free"):

ATOLS, AVTechNO!, cosMo, CrusherP, daniwell, DECO*27, doriko, EasyPop, Jhon, keeno, KeN, kz(livetune) -not everything, it seems-, Last Note, malo, MARETU, maya, Yayutan, Neru, nyanyannya, Orangestar, otetsu, PinocchioP, PolyphonicBranch, ryo, samfree, sasakure.UK, T-POCKET, wowaka, yasu, UtataP, Kikuo, XenonP, JesusP, SignalP, Jin, Tohma, Toa, Toraboruta, nekobolo, Hachi, BabelP, Yamashizuku, BuriruP, Masa, KimitoP, YuuyuP, rerulili, Hikarisyuyo, Hachioji-P, SakamotoP, KurousaP, 40mP, emon, JevanniP

Might be more, but this is what I have right now. Not everything for everyone, but the most popular things at least. Now, here's the deal: if you have any album from these artists in shitty 128 kbps Joint Stereo or just bad ripped, most probably I can give you an official iTunes remastered (256 kbps AAC) version, free of DRM and all.

Think about it, I'm going to sleep now and will read the replies tomorrow.

Hello fellow anons, how are you going to spend your valentines day?

>>18394624
Most probably dying while browsing Pixiv.

Post your favorite Miku designs/outfits

>>18394723
What if I don't like Miku?

>>18394770
Is that even possible?

>>18394790
Myself is fairly neutral about Miku.

>>18388187
Thanks anon, I'll keep an eye. I imagine after tickets going on sale it would be worth revisiting this topic.

>>18394723
i have a thing for school swimsuits

To the anon last thread asking about Project Diva controllers:

I own the FT controller you pictured. I definitely recommend it, but they're quite overpriced now so you'll have to judge it for yourself. I paid $180 for mine shipped, but I got lucky.

FT was unplayable for me before the controller. The DS4 is a really shitty way to play it. The PD games were made for a Dualshock or PSP/Vita controls but FT is literally an arcade port so the timing and holds are incredibly difficult to handle at higher difficulties with a DS4, the controller makes it a lot easier so much more enjoyable.

The only issue I have with the FT controller is how weak the springs are. You get used to it, but you have to lift your fingers after every press unlike the arcade machine where you can just tap really fast and the spring resets the button as soon as you tap so in higher speed songs it does become much harder to perform.

I just took mine apart last night to measure the springs and I'm going to try to replace them with stronger ones. If I could source the nice long PD touch-pad or something like it I would just make a custom with the big ole buttons

So, I definitely recommend an arcade controller. Be it a custom or the FT one, it all depends on how far you want to go with it.

>>18393681
>>18394529
This is interesting, I'll give it a try myself sometime in the near future and report back. Cheers.

>>18394723
Nothing comes to mind (or rather picking just one is hard) so rather than posting a specific "all time favorite" outfit, here's one I've had a thing for recently :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1iz4L-5zkQ

>>18394723
Append is my favorite design.
Dark is my favorite voicebank.
TDA is my favorite 3D model.

Ｍｙ ｄａｒｌｉｎ' ~

>>18395172
Thanks, anon, I'll try to get FT one for now. And if you would successfully replace springs let me know how it went.
I'd build one myself but I don't have a laser cutter freely available nearby and need to order pretty much every single part so not only it'd cost a ton at the end but I'll have to wait like a month for everything to arrive. That said I may end up doing something like this in summer.

Say goodbye to Tony’s Racing Miku because they just removed the decals. Soon: Hiro Kanzaki Racing Miku!

>>18396469
Good

>>18396469
Goodbye Tony's Racing Miku

So coming Valentine's day, are you getting or giving chocolate?

>>18396507
Probably just buying for myself. Would that be considered narcissism?

Anons, are those figures legit?
https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B0778C46TY
https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B013N23D6Y

>>18396507
Project Diva prize figures are a thing, yes, if that's what you're asking.

>>18396667
I mean are they good? The price is pretty cheap for the size.

>>18396639
>>18396780
Prize figures are never expensive, for that reason they're obviously not are detailed and good as scales.
Now whether you think they're good or not is up to you, and it can differ from a prize figure to another. There are objectively pretty bad prize figures out there, but also so really damn good ones. I personally own Vocaloid prize figures and I'm happy with them.

When you want to know more about an item, use MFC.
https://myfigurecollection.net/item/619122
https://myfigurecollection.net/item/287770
And look at real pictures instead of promo pictures to get a definitive opinion.
Ebay also has real pictures of those two all around (seeing them pretty much every day) if MFC doesn't have enough.

>>18393681
>>18393718
Ok, I did an analysis myself. Up is the iTunes remastered version (256 kbps AAC), Bottom is the ripped 320 kbps MP3 I had before the match.

I obviously see the MP3 has a more aggressive cutoff frequency, so it's an improvement I guess.

This thread needs more IA.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm20615007

>>18396928
And this is Hajimete no Oto, from the 2009 album Hatsune Miku Best memories. Massively improved despite the rip being 320 kbps. I guess it's because ripping technology was not as good back then?

>>18396946
>I guess it's because ripping technology was not as good back then?
It means that shitter who ripped it messed up the settings somehow.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CPf-kK8Ma0

How can Stardust even compete?

>>18396622
If you take a photo of it with your waifu and eat it afterwards then it's okay I guess.

>>18397038
By having secondary sexual characteristics

>>18397038
By aligning herself with Our Greatest Ally

>>18397091
>105cm
is she that short

>>18396622
I don't get this comic

>>18397226
You'll understand when you're older.

>>18397234
>>18396622
Just tell me man. Is she drinking chocolate while giving him coffee or what?

>>18397288
Not that anon but hot coffee basically means sex, it's as simple as that. I don't know how far back this association goes.

>>18397304
Wew that's not something anyone knows in my country. I should know, for I do engage in a lot of coffee.

But yeah I guess I did not pick up on that since almost everyone I know has barely can enact any influence on the temperature of the coffee and also there are no heat lines drawn on the last two frames.

>>18397304
>hot coffee basically means sex
For what purpose

I feel like I shouldn’t be attracted to this...

>>18397647
same desu

>>18397038
Play nice!

>>18397203
That's just the daki dimensions anon. The official ones are normal sized.

From MayoRiyo.

KAITO looks older more and more everyday.
Miku a cute.
Rin a cute.
Luka a perfect.
MEIKO is mama tier.
I don't care about Len.

Speaking of my little Chinese bellflower, her live concert BD now has a new 5 minute PV going over the whole song list. Hasn't found it's way to youtube yet, but it's on bilibili all the same.

https://www.bilibili.com/video/av19379037/

>>18398051
Len a gay

>>18398076
The glow sticks are too damn bright...

>>18398112
They're a little bright, yeah. China's trying it's best though. Hang in there, China.

>>18398051
>MEIKO is mama tier.
Is that a good or a bad thing?

Also, Quadimension is releasing another new Vocaloid soon!

Her name is Haiyi and she's Stardust's little sister. Apparently.

>>18398138
And she's already got fanart.

>>18398138
>>18398149
I-Is that a jellyfish on her head...?

>>18398154
Yes. "As Stardust was born from the stars, Haiyi was born from the sea," or something like that.

>>18398162

>>18398132
Wouldn't you want Meiko for a mommy? By the way, it's not uncommon for some mothers to breastfeed when their kid is into their teens.

>>18398166
Also she's got a weibo post that says something along the lines of "thank you for the jellyfish" and it's freaking adorable.

To demo her voice (which has a few different banks similar to Appends), Zeno released a duet version of Ripple featuring Haiyi. She sounds cute!

https://www.bilibili.com/video/av19526050/

>>18398162
That jellyfish looks delicious.

>>18398296
Don't you dare.

>>18398171
Anon now I'm hard. please don't do this to me.

>>18397894
>normal sized
Which would be...?

I wish TakeponG had continued using Luka and not switch to Yukari for a dozen of albums. This album was so good.

>>18398445
160cm or so? That's what I recall when I was daki shopping.

>>18397894
>I'm a big deal in china
oh yeah? have you appeared in television or do you have your face in a pizza box?
you're smalltime compared with miku. Someone please stop her...

>>18398669
>spoiler
Keep crying, GUMI.

>>18398669
No pizza box, but many video game appearances ! Some day soon on television !

>>18398171
>Wouldn't you want Meiko for a mommy?
I'm not into alcoholic cakes.

>>18398850
don't be mean to meiko, she might be a cake but she is a cute cake

>>18398981
I don't want Miku to be my mom, I want her to be the mother of my child. I also want her to be my daughter.

>>18398981
Come on, she is 16, I could be her father.

>>18398210
I cleaned up the overexposed, blurry chibis from the video because they're too cute not to post.

>>18399134

>>18399142

>>18399154

>>18399086
There's no way anyone here could be that old. You'd have to be like at least 30.

>>18399248
Jokes on you, I’m 34

>>18399258
Why would you go on the internet and just lie like this?

>>18399248
Not that Anon, but I'm going to be 30 this year.

>>18399576
Think what you want. I can school brats like you at any time with my tasteful collection of Miku music and pictures carefully selected over my years of experience. I bet you couldn’t even legally drink when When The First Love Ends was first uploaded over the Internet and couldn’t wash the tears with whisky. What a pity.

>>18399741
If I wanted to get yelled at by a self-important old man, I'd go visit my dad. You can fuck right off, grandpa.

Jeeze, internet. She hasn't even been released yet.

>>18399788
But people really seem to like the jellyfish head.

>>18399788
Did you forget what happened with Akari? Pixiv loves newcomers.

>>18399258
>>18399587
Wizard gathering when?

Also I thought it was commonly known knowledge that the majority of posters on this thread are practically normies; whether it’s college students, husband with wife, or just a lame high schooler.

Unlike the rest of /jp/, this thread has more functional members of society than actual hikkis or NEETS.

Go to a Miku Expo concert and actually talk to the attendees that aren’t teens. You’ll be surprised how many are functional adults with jobs such as nurses, teachers, and my personal favorite, a manager.

>>18399741
Her debut was only ten years ago so anyone could've been a fan since day 1 without being an old fart

>>18399808
imagine the colossal wave of fanart that would come if CV04 ever gets released

>>18399872
CV04... the Half-life 3 of CFM.

>>18399872
If Crypton manages to launch CV04 without fixing Luka first, I'm going to be mad.

>>18399889
>implying CV04 will ever come
the last time it was mentioned by anybody at CFM was 4 years ago.

They don't seem to have anything on their plate at the moment it seems. I just want a vocaloid to help complete the crypton rainbow and spice up the variety in project diva ;_;

>>18399911
>complete the crypton rainbow
Hmm... MEIKO is Red, Kaito is Blue, Miku is Green, Rin is Yellow, Len is Orange, Luka is Pink... so... Purple...? Wait, wait, what if, listen, what if they buy Yukari?

>>18399959
>Miku is Green
Miku is Teal

>buying Yukari
fat chance

Turns out besides the rumored CV04, they also had Project If on the side
https://youtu.be/LSF0ncZxzxM
http://vocaloid.wikia.com/wiki/Project_if......
>The concept of this project was to produce a choir-style set of voices and therefore, unlike the predecessor the Character Vocal Series, were professional singers. The setting was an elementary school theme, which separated itself from the High school setting of the CV series. This project consisted of various child and professional opera-esque style voices. A special device was also designed for the project which was VOCALOID™ specific, concept art for this device exists but few details about it are known
>The Crypton 6 could've been the Crypton Choir
>We will never get the final vocaloid of the CV series
why live?

tbph i don't know why y'all want more cfmloids there's already 4 too many

These weird pics always get me

>>18400099
Why would you say that about my family...?

It has begun.

Hnnnnghhhh

>>18399248
Haha, s-sure. Imagine still listening to Vocaloid in y-your thirties, h-haha.

>>18400604
Im 25 about to be 26 and i listen to vocashit every single day

>>18400604
>>18400623
You know what I fear? The day I wake up and convince myself to stop doing what I like and start doing what society expect of me. That would be the day I die. Maybe not physically, but it would be the same.

>>18400666
might as well kill yourself at that point
i did the opposite. Bought the car i like listen to the music i like and eat whatever i like. shits cash yo

>>18392449

>>18400604
Im almost in my thirties and also listen to vocaloid and play miku games almost everyday

>>18400582
I made cupcakes for Rin! they're shitty looking, I know

>>18399970
>Teal
Lol gay

>>18400872
They look like those feminist menstrual cupcakes

>>18400992
Kek, that was my first thought as well.

I’ll give anon some props for actually posting that photo online though. I’d be ashamed myself not to post it.

https://twitter.com/puyoquest/status/963232477954244608

>>18398453
Can someone share this?

I'm about to spend valentines with Meiko and Haku in a lonely bar drinking until drown all the bad feelings away

>>18400872
How did they all turn out such different sizes?

>>18401378
I'm guessing he didnt mix it well enough and some cupcakes got more baking soda/powder than others

>>18400666
More like the day you become a huge moron for living your life like others expect you to rather than doing whatever the fuck you want.

>>18392696
Already bought a couple albums featuring best girl (male) which should be arriving this week. I'm prepared.

>>18400666
Exactly. I'd rather die instead of living without doing what I want. I got extremely lucky somehow and managed to get a long term girlfriend and group of semi-close friends who don't care and won't judge me for my interests/hobbies, and that's awesome, but I know that might not often be the case and it sucks.

Now that anime and JP culture is becoming more and more mainstream, hopefully this becomes less of an issue in the future.

This thread is getting depressing.

Sure! Sundresses are the miracle of the universe.

>>18394624
The cake's base is ready, I'm going to finish it today and spend nice evening with her, listening to music, enjoying cake, cuddling and more~


Also is the anon who wanted to celebrate valentines with Miku too still around?

>Also is the anon who wanted to celebrate valentines with Miku too still around?
If you're the anon also from Europe with whom I spoke with a while ago while sharing sweet pictures with plushies and stuff, then yeah I'm still around, I'll be starting soon.

Valentines Day again, huh?

Stop spreading lies.

>>18404471
Here we go.
They're "Chouquettes" (French pastry), but it didn't want to make traditional ones so I filled them with chocolate and little chocolate nuggets with fresh strawberries.

Was my first time baking anything. It was super fun.
cont.

>>18404527
"Choice" huh...

And a new soft Miku just joined the family.
Opened some sake I had saved for the occasion.

Happy Valentines!
Looking forward to see your picture(s)!

>>18404545

CHOICE !

>>18404554
Well, your "choice" is very cute too.

>>18404540
Looks delicious.
Are you going to arrange it in traditional, collage like theme? Like with picture of her, merch, decoration etc?

>>18404580
I posted another pic up there >>18404551, but I'm not sure I'll take any more than that if that's what you're asking. I'm just gonna enjoy myself for the rest of the day I think.

Not him but sounds pretty good! GJ anon

You know what I hate? Producers that don't upload their shit even many years after the album has been released. Like what the fuck man? It's free advertising, all popular artists release their shit online for larger exposure. Are they so fucking paranoid and afraid of piracy? It's seriously fucking stupid. It's not like you'll be getting that many sales once it's been out for some time, so you might as well give people a taste of your music and possibly get a few more sold. Fucking hell.

>>18404652
As much as I wish they did it, your post unironically sounds utterly self-entitled.

>>18404665
Japs are just backwards as shit, it's really that simple. Most people can barely use a PC. In the west you have artists releasing their songs and using them to advertise upcoming albums while in Japan they're too afraid to release their new songs before the album is even out.

Also you fuck right off with your shitty buzzwords.

>>18404685
>buzzwords
What would YOU call someone demanding free shit?

>>18404701
Well done on missing my point, retard. I'm sorry if you're too stupid to understand how the world works.

>>18404836

WHY ARE THEY LIKE THAT AT THE AIRPORT

>>18404867
Attracting customers. And maybe working for some airline, who knows.

Has Future Tone ever gone on sale on the UK PSN? I liked what I played of PD on my Vita ages ago (though I didn't like the scratch notes since you can't map them to the stick in f1) but I'm not sure about dropping £45 on a rhythm game with music I'm not extremely familiar with.

>>18404973

Try the demo first. FT isn't for everyone, it's a lot different than a normal PD in terms of timing and has a lot all of the arcade stuff like holds that take a lot of effort to wrap you head around with a dualshock.

>>18404973
>Has Future Tone ever gone on sale on the UK PSN?
Yes, back in Christmas I think.

>>18404984
Well I have to download the "base" game to use the bundle anyway, don't I? Guess I'll give that a shot first.

>>18405256
I'm gonna suggest you definitely reserve forming am opinion until you can P or at least E Weekender Girl and Out of the Gravity on Extreme. You will not, certainly assuredly definitely will not have fun on the normal and hard charts. Playing just the light diffs will make it feel like a waste of money. And if you can't bring yourself to clear Exs, then you won't like the game at all.

>>18405276
I think the highest I went in f was Hard, but I didn't put that much time into it.

>>18405328
FT is also a much better game than any of the household releases.

>>18404984
>FT isn't for everyone
With its extensive playlist, pretty graphics and module collection, it is definitely for everyone. Stop exaggerating.
Arcade charts only start to annoy on 9*+ extreme difficulty and only on selected songs.

Rate my Valentines.

Happy Valentines /jp/

>>18405457
>hurr durr video games aren't hard
Sick of this meme. How about you stop exaggerating? Its difficulty puts a lot of people off.

>>18405553
Most people don't even play on extreme wtf are you on about.

I still find FT basically unplayable without an arcade controller.

>>18405587
I can perfect most 8.5* with DS4, still have lots of fun and spent over 200 hrs in the game.
>basically unplayable

>>18405606

"Everyone should be exactly like me."

>>18405613
Same applies to you.

>>18405606
8.5 is like, hard+.

>>18405635
So what?

>>18405635
well, I have 90%+ on a lot of 9.5* but getting perfect is an autism in itself.

>>18405721
Because even newly born Vocaloids get chocolate on Valentine's day.

Also, jelly-head train has no brakes.

Cute sisters.

Last jelly-head for now.

>>18405509
3.5/10, not enough Miku stuff.

>>18405725
Oh, there's an actual animated version. Glad I checked her weibo.

Fun activities with the rejected vocaloids (mostly Haku)

>>18406153
Is true what they say about Haku, Teto and all the other failed experiments? Are they easy girls?

>>18406343
>failed experiments
>Teto

how new are you

>>18406343
Don't be mean to Haku. All she wants Is to be loved

>>18406357
Well she sure wasn't successful so I don't know what word you would use

Glad to see that there are other people in the thread with god-tier taste

>>18406393
>wasn't successful
I'd dare say she's THE most popular UTAU voicebank. What are you talking about?

>>18406424
but utau itself is a failure

More newcomers being loved.

This is so wrong I don’t even know where to start.

See? This is much better.

>>18406433
Teto was also DLC in some Diva games, got her own plushie and Nendoroid.
UTAU is freeware, there are a lot of high quality voicebanks, and people are releasing albums with them. What makes you think it's a failure?

>>18403518
>>18404551
And here is mine. Happy Valentines!

>>18407014
This is so nice. Well done, anon.

>>18406475
Oof

Guess this is what I get for not doing anything on Valentines.

Does anyone have UTAUMiRAi or Progrematica?

If your waifu is one of the less popular Vocaloid just remember you need to love them twice as much to compensate !

Happy Valentines day Miku

I know i know

>>18405509
That's a pretty cute cake.

>>18407014
Nice cake anon. Did it taste good?
Also I have a feeling you have more figures than before.

>>18407670
I don't love it but I don't hate it. I like Bye-Bye School more.

>>18407670
Not a huge fan of the music overall but the melody is pretty memorable and the lyrics are really cute. Kinda reminiscent of early Vocaloid songs, which is neat. Grats to the winner.

>>18407670
its shit. crypton has lowered the standards to make the most money possible, and now its slowly becoming more casual than disney now. i wanna fucking die.

>>18408329
What do you expect? There only like 250 entries.

>>18407670
I’m just glad it’s something cheerful and not the 50+ teenage angst entries.

Well shit, I actually really like On Top. Why couldn't that have won instead?

>>18407968
Dont like it. Too cluttered for a nendo. It's nice as a scale tho

>>18407826
>Did it taste good?
To be honest, I'm not a fan of such a intense chocolate cake, it was ok. But I shared a piece with my roommate and he really liked it, so I guess it turned out well.

>Also I have a feeling you have more figures than before.
Yeah, I've bought most of them when I was on last Magical Mirai.

>>18409133
>To be honest, I'm not a fan of such a intense chocolate cake, it was ok.
I think some Crème anglaise would've helped. That's generally what I poor on cakes like those to mellow the strong taste, and incidentally also make it less dry.

I'm planning on doing something on White Day too (haven't decided what yet). Will you as well?

>>18409268
>Crème anglaise
It might taste nice.

>White Day
Not really. Since I made something for her on valentines, it wouldn't make much sense to celebrate White Day. So I won't be doing anything special, but she still can count on some nice cuddles and kisses~

>those 3dpd dancers

why

>>18409865
My thoughts exactly. I don't know why 1st Place insists on adding 3dpd people in their lives. No one is asking for it.

Chinese New Year festivities are underway.

Though there's still some Valentine's leftovers.

A cute New Year Stardust with her pleasant subwoofers.

SAIKA is back!

>>18410347
That ear is really weird and I can't unsee it now.

>>18409311
>I loathe you
T-thanks Teto...

>>18409311
Where's Meiko?

In the corner, clutching a bottle and sobbing

>>18410362
Monkey Miku.

They had a life size Snow Miku at the Chitose Airport exhibit. 158cm is pretty smol.

>>18410473
Rin and Len were at the Sapporo Factory, too.

>>18410473
I want to see what's under her skirt.

>>18409590

It says "World Tour" where are they going? Literally everything is in chex mix letters.

>>18410428
Nah, she is with me sharing a nice day and a meal

>>18410528
I refuse to believe NO ONE managed to photograph the panties on this figure or the Magical Mirai one.

>>18410635
We were very respectful and considerate of the wishes of Miku and the staff. Also they had it roped off so you couldn't get close.

>>18410489
Rin looks great but Len seems to have a long face

>>18407715
That goddamn song has been haunting me, I've been 1 safe away from perfecting it at least 5 different times

At least I finally got this one done yesterday

>>18410473
It would be easy to take an upskirt photo using a monopod.

I think this Yukari is pretty. For a 3DPD at least.

>>18410916
>Yukari
>pretty
>3DPD
pick only one

>>18410929

Yukari is very pretty !

>>18410489
The snow outfits for each of the other loids were as adorable as Miku's.

>>18410939
Akari is pretty, Stardust is pretty, Yukari is flat and flat can't be pretty

>>18410916
Nah.

Are there any albums as good as Shibayan's Musou Materialise? It's so catchy. I need more like it.

Recommendations pls.

>>18410950

2018 is so superior to 2017.

>>18410967

If it makes you feel better, I like Yukari too.

Everyone is probably still grumpy after valentines day.

>>18410996
The only ones grumpy are my downstairs neighbors.

His grasp on his sexuality is probably better than your grasp on English.

Like I hate spiders but it's not because I secretly want to fuck a spider.

>>18412062
>not wanting to fuck a spider
What are you, gay?

>>18412062
You don't want to fuck a spider? What a fucking fag.

>>18412109

Holy shit

>>18412062
Heterosexuality is a social construct anyways.

>>18412284
You're goddamn right, Luka.

>>18412284
Well, there it is. The dumbest thing I'm going to read today.

So Stardust has a new song, "Journey," with a pretty cool anime PV, and it appears to be by Senjougahara Yousei (so you know it's good).

...only problem is, the song seems to only be available to view as a 3 minute segment in one of bilibili's four or five 1-hour-long new years videos. That's not stopping it from getting fanart already, though.

Hope the song gets posted elsewhere soon enough. Can't rightly link to it at the moment.

>>18412380
Screencap. Dem eyes though.

>>18412392
One more with the new outfit.

I don’t dislike the grand prize winning song or anything, but honestly how was that chosen over the first runner up. Time Bomb sounds like something Jin would make, and it’d probably sound better live than Can’t Make A Song too since it isn’t as heavy on synths.

>>18412822

I agree. I don't like Can't Make a Song at all and it sucks because it means I'll have to sit through it when I go see her in concert.

I would've been happy with Time Bomb. Can't Make a Song isn't catchy at all.

How do you guys feel about the original vocaloid that paved the way?

I’m not the biggest fan of the grand prize but I’m so glad Icarus didn’t win, especially with so many people rooting for it.

Heartbreaker is a hack.

>>18413564
Crazy Frog was in 2006. However, my country was releasing albums with a similar idea since 1995, so small time.

I dare you to look it in YouTube.

>>18408569
Just wanna say, I have no idea how your image relates to what you posted but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Lewd Len is too good.

>>18413564

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVrmR8cHGSs

Couldn't they just settle with the 17th for KAITO's birthday though? This is what Crypton uses. Having the 14th, 15th (V3) and 17th is too much.

>>18414865
You too

Anons here that use the Vocaloid software: How many voicebanks do you own? I've been using it since 2014 and I'm up to about 15 now, always wanting more aarhgh

>>18413779
We should meet and discuss how arousing you find and underage boy.

>>18415251
>15 voicebanks
Giving the benefit of the doubt about getting them, did you actually make any good songs using them?

>>18415313
I don't think he'd have bothered saying this if he hadn't bought them legally.
Anyway I don't really relate to buying voicebanks and not producing anything significant either. The day I buy a voicebank will be the day I know I can back it up with actual skills I learned and developed (even if still a beginner). To each their own though.

>>18415251
4

2 engloids and Miku V3 English and Miku V4X bundle

Despite the engloids being $40 each from a sale they’re worthless.

>>18415313
15 individuals might be an exaggeration, with appends I'm pretty sure this is more than 15 (pic related)
I am retarded at music and I just make covers of varying effort I post to YT
One day I will learn and the money I have wasted on japanese singing computer program will be justified
>>18415353
What Engloids do you have, anon? And why are they worthless?

Sorry, MayoRiyo, but I've seen too much hentai to feel comfortable with this picture.

>>18415671
Nothing wrong with this pic, it just miku acting according her nature.

>>18415675
>miku acting according her nature.
Attaching to a pole dancing, you say?

>>18415745
I remember some anon getting very triggered at this.

>>18415803
Me too, back in summer or so I think.

【雪ミク】「SNOW MIKU LIVE! 2018」ライブ映像/四角い地球を丸くする 他【初音ミク】
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0USE9AMu8i8

>>18415803
They literally made her dance on pole and present the upskirt on stage like a literal whore.
Why would I not get triggered? If I saw something like that on MM I would just leave.

>>18415839
Not gonna lie she looks a bit odd at 2min onward. I suppose it's still sort of a work in progress though so surely they're gonna continue working on it.

Full live when?

>>18415874
3/9

>>18415874
I bet that's the model they plan to use on the Olympics. Facial expressions look very improved although the whole is a little less cute than the standard SEGA model.

>>18415888
Yeah sorry should've read the description.
http://www.wowow.co.jp/detail/112439/001
Looking into it and it seems we'll be able to watch it for free? Got a good PC so I could potentially record it.

>>18415916
Someone in the comments said they're still tweaking it, unless he's making things up he probably read that from Crypton themselves.
Anyway yes, that's the first thing that came to mind when I saw it.

>>18415839
Isn't her head too small or she slouches or something?
I really can't put my finger on it, but something feels really uncanny in that rolling girl thing.

>>18416042
I don't know about the size of her head but something about her facial features feel wrong.

>>18416118
I-I think Wokada is behind this...

>>18415745
what kind of heresy is this

>>18416118
>>18416127
Yeah, I guess it's just gestures and expressions.
How could they fuck it up so badly though? The final speech on last MM was so great, these brand introductions before were nice, pretty much all other speeches I remember were fine.

>>18416158
Hmmmm....

>>18416176
NicoNico Cho Party 2015

>>18416127
Is this even a hologram anymore? It looks so solid and real, I can't believe it's not a projection.
Also why didn't they just go with projections in the first place I wonder.

>>18416566
That hair color is so jarring though, even for a prototype.

>>18416566
According to Crypton, the most innovative thing is that it’s not prerendered anymore so this time Miku reacts to the audience and not the opposite.

The dream is closer and closer.

I love this cute girl.

>>18416620
I don't even really understand what that means in the first place but it sounds like a software thing and not a hardware thing. I guess the mindset is that a projection isn't as engaging as a hologram because you can still see the screen.

>>18416716
What I say is that what they are promoting is Miku being rendered in real time instead of the former pre-rendered PV as the main innovation. Maybe they also changed the way she is projected but they didn't say nothing about that.

What that means? Well, now Miku is recorded previously to the concert and just put to play. She is totally dumb so musicians and the audience must react to what Miku does for everything to make sense.

Theoretically, now Miku can slightly adjust her tempo to fit better with the musicians and, when she speeches, she can wait for the audience to stop cheering before keep talking, instead of the audience having to shut up to listen to Miku. It's a whole new paradigm and I wish they success with it.

So this is what heaven looks like...

>>18416766
>Well, now Miku is recorded previously to the concert
>Theoretically, now Miku can slightly adjust her
make up your mind

>>18417187
His first "now" probably was a "as of now" kind of "now".

>>18417211
At least you also realize it came off a bit ambiguous. Anyway, it's nice they're trying to make the "live performance" live up to the "live" part more.

>>18410635
Someone managed to go backstage and make voyeur pictures in the last MM though

>>18417375
>that plastic skin

>>18417396
What were you expecting from an android?

>>18417244
I think it was about time they change their concerts in one way or another anyway.
Don't get me wrong, watching concerts is one of my favorite moments ever, but MM concerts have barely changed so far. The Chou Party ones for example, although short, always feature new and different things. Sure sometimes it's miss, but I'm pretty exciting whenever a new one comes out.

Imagine a Magical Mirai in a similar fashion, with a whole lot of different outfits, backgrounds, and loids doing all sorts of things on screen... would be pretty fun I think. I don't mean for the whole concert, but here and there to spice things up. There's so much potential.
